[ Call ends ]

Comments

[arrowace]

Took us . . . out of time.

[ oh Charon had the good idea to simply Memory Coin that shit ]

Here, watch.

[ MEMORY GO ]

[mykidisthebest]

[yeah give him a minute while he watches that memory I guess]



Uhm.

[arrowace]

Mmhm.

[mykidisthebest]

[he's quiet for like. a really, really long moment, his expression unreadable.

then he scoops Caesura up into a big hug]

Good job out there. Thanks for coming back safe.

[arrowace]

[ makes a confused little peep ]

[mykidisthebest]

[sets them on their feet and ruffles their hair a little]

You did good watching each other's backs in there.

[arrowace]

I would . . . not allow harm to befall . . . Ananke or Scarab.

[mykidisthebest]

I don't want harm to befall you either.

[arrowace]

I am aware.

[mykidisthebest]

Well. Good.

[squishes their cheeks]

That doesn't mean I can't be worried. But I know you're both capable too...

If that weird fluffy shadow shows up in your dreams, make sure you kick its ass.

[arrowace]

[ !! ]

Yes.

[mykidisthebest]

[stops fussing at them so he can pour himself some coffee]

Did you inhale any of the same smoke Ananke did? You were farther away from it than him, but I couldn't tell if you inhaled anything from just watching the memory.

[arrowace]

Unclear. I was . . . further from the source, and faster with . . . the mask. But the possibility can not be dis . . . counted.

[mykidisthebest]

[gives a little nod]

Can you have someone monitor you while you're sleeping, just in case something happens? Better to be safe than sorry.

[arrowace]

[ nods again. they prefer sleeping while someone else is keeping watch anyway. ]

[mykidisthebest]

[what is it like to trust others with your wellbeing like that. can't relate.]

Thanks. If something happens and we can't wake you up, is it okay to go into your head to pull you awake? Minuet can probably handle it fine, but I'd at least like to be able to act as backup if it's needed.

[arrowace]

[ what's it like to actually sleep with no one watching your back? wild if true. ]

Yes. I trust . . . you both.

[mykidisthebest]

[WEH....ruffles their hair]

We won't let you down. Take it easy for the rest of the day, hmm?

[arrowace]

[ nod nod! ]

I will be in the cat tree once . . . stabbing is complete.

[mykidisthebest]

[what. frowns]

No stabbing.

[arrowace]

Controlled, responsible stabbing.

[mykidisthebest]

There's no such thing. Please refrain from any stabbings.

[arrowace]

[ . . . ]

Very well. I will not . . . stab today.

[mykidisthebest]

When you say it like that it sounds like you're just going to stab tomorrow instead.

[arrowace]

Correct.

[ today, Demeter will stab ]
