Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[karlsefni]

. . . well, you've been gone from there for a while. A lot's probably changed?

Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[genderbinary]

It has. Much more than I ever expected, I think.

Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[karlsefni]

. . . . you okay?

Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[genderbinary]

[pauses for a moment]

... It's still strange to be away from Tiger's Eye like this. That goes for both Sieh and myself, I suspect.

Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[karlsefni]

. . . mm. It's kinda strange, yeah.

Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[genderbinary]

I was sorry to hear about Regal...

Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[karlsefni]

[ his expression tightens, but he shrugs ] Better than the Darkness. He's safe in the Book.

Re: some night after 244??? 252 night???? sometime!?!?!?!?!?

[genderbinary]

Yes. At least we know he will be safe there, until such time as he can return.

[karlsefni]

[ nods ]

. . . there were these things that appeared. After the last game.

[genderbinary]

What things?

[karlsefni]

Statues. Of. . . people the Darkness got, Raven said.

[genderbinary]

Statues... but they're people turned to stone?

[karlsefni]

Yeah. They're outside the walls right now.

[genderbinary]

I see. That's... rather disturbing.

[karlsefni]

It's creepy. [ nods ] The Darkness's been making noise at us at night, too.

[genderbinary]

Camelot was said to be under siege... do you know how safe the city is?

[karlsefni]

Apparently safe enough that it can't get in? [ shrugs ] There's nothing we can do, we can't fight it directly now.

[genderbinary]

[...]

I wish I was there with you.

[karlsefni]

. . . [ sssshrugs ] There's nothing to do about it now.

[genderbinary]

[leans back in her seat, arms crossed, thinking]

I am not so certain of that.

[karlsefni]

. . . [ headtilt ] What, are you thinking of a way to get here?

[genderbinary]

Yes. It must be possible somehow, we know that to be true. The methods by which one can travel between worlds is what I'm contemplating. Of course, I have to focus on my casework at present, so I cannot devote all my time to this area of study, but it is in the works.

[karlsefni]

[ . . . uh ]

Casework?

[genderbinary]

For my job.

[karlsefni]

. . . [ squints ]

[ what does that mean ]
