[Video] 07 Feathers

[Davesprite looks like he just woke up. Amazing that he feels more tired after sleeping for three straight weeks. Note to self: try to avoid that in the future.]

I'd say this is for the sake of science or something along those lines, but since it's truth week, I doubt it'd let me say that. So, I'm just going to say that this is me exploiting the hell out of this curse by asking this question publicly.

[Dramatic pause!]

What are your most embarrassing guilty pleasures? I'm surprised nobody has asked this already, Jesus.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Yes. I think you might. In case something like this curse should happen again...

Well, you know you're free to visit me whenever you like so long as I am not in the midst of pailing.

[A pause as he realizes what he's just said and slowly looks horrified.]

[Which she takes in stride as best she can.]

Yes. I will certainly keep that in mind.

[Grin.]

Shall I call first, then?

[Just... He just covers his face in his hands.]

...Please.

[Trying hard not to giggle. Trying so very hard.]

Alright. There will be no pail-blocking from this oliveblood.

[Lip quiver.]

Thank you.

...Please don't laugh at me.

[He can sense it coming.]

[A smile, and nothing more. His statement effectively stymies her laughter.]

I am not going to laugh at you, dear. If anything, it would be the situation. Even if you were sort of cute.

[Crap. She tries to not use the 'c' word to describe him, but the curse just marched it on out there.]

[Nooooo]

I am not cute. I do not want to be cute. [He meant for that first one, ksadjfas, damn you curse.] I am a very large and intimidating highblood troll, I have been quite firmly told this.

Yes, very large; Very intimidating.

[No. Stop there, curse!]

But... sometimes, in private, when you let your guard down. You can be impossibly cute at times.

[She practically sputters at what she says.]

In... a very mean, intimidating way, of course!

[Distressed whinny]

With you I suppose it's alright, but what if others get the idea? What if my reputation gets ruined?

[Oh, so this why the truth curse was so bad! When people asked questions without thinking.]

They might already know, Lysunder for instance. You should not worry too much about your reputation here. It does not matter nearly as much as it does back home. What is most important here is how great of an influence you are on so many lives.

I know that things are different here, and I know that I am doing very different things that are helping more. I just can't help but cling to old habits and thoughts even when I know that I'm trying to change. It still feels very important that I retain some factor of being fearsome especially with individuals like the Grand Highblood about.

I can imagine. I will keep my opinions secret... unless someone asks me during the week, apparently. I know important it is that we keep that monster subdued the best we can.

[Ugh... she is completely terrified of the GHB, for good reason. Good thing her policy of active avoidance has been paying off for her time here, at least it has so far.]

He at least seems to be less actively pursuing trouble these days.. I hope it stays that way. I don't want to lose anyone like I lost Lysunder, no matter how temporarily.

I hope he does too. Or maybe the scientists could send him home? Or even better, with all their technological might, if they can pull him from our world, why not send him back somewhere else? Like the middle of a star?

Oh, how I wish, but...

[Huff.]

Lysunder..

Yes, it is never that simple, is it?

[What the bronzeblood saw in that monster was beyond her. It was something she stopped trying to fathom months ago.]

Oh, it really never is. As long as he just stays safe, that's all I can really ask for. I'm simply his matesprit, I can't try and control his life decisions.

No, you cannot, but that does not mean you should not factor into them at all. At least you know he cares for you, and he is not stupid. He will know where to draw the line.

[She would give him a conciliatory pap him if she could.]

I believe they have some sort of agreement, I simply cannot for the life of me tell you the details.

[Paps, yes please]

Nor would I ask of them. I cannot say I wish to know anything about that brute more then his current location and the best means of avoiding him.

He seems to have become somewhat withdrawn, although I have observed via proxies that he occasionally wanders out... You simply have to keep our nose focused. His stench is hard to miss.

Oh, I know. His is a smell I could never forget. The slightest hint of it and I find a detour.

I...

I know its terrible.

I am suppose to believe in equality and a chance for redemption for everyone. Signless taught me better then this, but... Not him. Not after everything he has done.[Quite a statement considering her forgiveness and moirallegiance of the troll who had actually slain her matesprit. The curse seems to be taking her down a uncomfortable line of thought.]

Some simply can't be redeemed. That is the truth of the matter.

Something I tried to deny for the longest time. It still makes be feel a little sick to admit it to myself, but you are right I want to believe that no one is past redemption. But what he did... all he has done.

[There is a surprisingly cold tone in her voice, especially coming from her.]

He is unforgivable.
