Gadriel's busy praising the Emperor or something. He'll get back to you asap.

What the FUCK did you do?????

[thecodexabides]

[He's mid-sorting this out with Maedhros right now thanks for your text he might sound distracted because Maedhros is putting him THROUGH IT.]

Became corrupted.

Also. Accused someone of being something they are not.

I am already asking for penance.

[likeiron]

Corrupted? What the hell are you talking about.

[ Random text one morning. ]

What size of bottles do you need for your morning rituals?

[thecodexabides]

[It takes him a minute. Oh. Right. He'd told her about his...situation and his handling of it.]

Any size, really. I would just

fill a small one up


faster. [So embarrassing to admit. ]

[wantadistraction]

I won't make a joke about sizes here but what is the best size for you?

voice; a few days after the.......incident

[wildwarden]

...Gadriel? ( She half expects him not to answer, and wouldn't be surprised if he didn't.)

It's Night Sky.

I'm sorry.

[thecodexabides]

I killed you

Why are you apologizing?

[wildwarden]

You did what you had to do to stop me. My clone. Simulacrum. Whatever. I would have begged you to do it if I had the voice to do so.

I guess I'm sorry for... hurting you again. I always seem to, one way or another.

Are you alive?

This is Davrin.

[thecodexabides]

How is Nina?

Are she and Finnich...allies still?

[Gadriel has priorities.]

[daddywarden]

I don't know. She's been upset.

What the hell happened exactly? From your point of view?

[arlathvhen]

Gadriel, I have been thinking of ways to help you overcome some of the hurdles that you have faced in socializing with our fellow Visitors, and I think I've come up with a potential idea to help.

Have you, perhaps, heard of a knock-knock joke?

[ This can only go well. ]

voice @gadriel

[thecodexabides]

Inquisitor. [What a ...surprise...to hear out of the blue from an Inquisitor. Not alarming at all.]

None of those words parse. [Like, even 'joke'. What is that?]

Re: voice @gadriel

[arlathvhen]

[ An Inquisitor with a plan! ]

I -- Hmm. Gadriel, you've... found things funny before, right? Laughed? Somebody said something silly and you had a little chuckle about it?

[ She had thought, unkindly, when they first met, that he did not have a face built for jokes. She had assumed she'd been exaggerating. ]

Are you at your camp?

Text if I fuck up formatting blame my phone

[thecodexabides]

I can be soon.

[Long story: Gadriel has been doing random chores for petty cash for some old woman near his camp. He has no idea why she needs so much firewood or why she insists he chop it for her barechested, but bones are bones and it is something he can actually do. ]

[guidingnight]

( good morning! some weirdo left a gift at Gadriel's camp that is probably being batted around by Elion while left unattended. Thankfully, the round glass bottle was secure enough that the pale liquid inside would not leak out, the top corked and the neck wrapped with a purple ribbon. A note was... somewhere nearby. )

I often gift nectar made of golden apples to those that I enjoy spending time with. Unfortunately, there are no golden apples here, so these sweet yellow ones had to do. I hope the taste is not unpleasant.

May moonlight guide your steps.

[thecodexabides]

(She wouldn't know when he got back to camp so she wouldn't know how long he sat, holding the bottle in his hand (after liberating it from Elion who found the sloshy color irresistible) and reading the note till he had it memorized.

Fun fact, memorizing things doesn't mean you understand them.

This poor communication bird, because he's started and restarted it a dozen times. )

I owe you a
sunset.

We could share this
at that time
?

@ogreslayer

[likeiron]

Figured out who killed Skan.

I'm going to kick his ass.

[thecodexabides]

Skandranon died? Is h--has he returned yet?

[Wait. Those are not the important questions. At least for right now.]

Who.

And where.

@warden

[wildwarden]

Hey.

Thank you for helping Lulu.

[thecodexabides]

No one
Of us
Should be assaulted

Like that.

And he means
A great deal to you.

I would
Gladly
Have done more.

[lost_and_foundry]

Sergeant? When you have a moment, I have a favor to ask.

And also a question or two. There's something about this place I keep turning over in my mind, and I need input from someone who's observed more than I have.

So perhaps that's two favors, technically.

[thecodexabides]

I am at your disposal,
Archmagos.

Anything I can assist you with
I will gladly do.

[He owes Barcus so much, for his help and just being one of the first real friends he made here. Also the whole not being able to save him from dying thing. Yeah. That too. ]
