Tam defeated Ruia, and now we’re back in my home. You’re around too, right? If you’re at Rose’s house? Violet’s phone rang. “I wonder why,” she said. “Is it just a human thing? Of being human?” Oh, you're in the caverns too? Yeah, we're there. At a giant party full of stuffy nobles. Kinda wish ya'll were here.

Cadewyn paused outside the ring of fire, watching the bisons milling around. well, he thought, that went fairly well. Now i just have to get them to run the other direction. He advanced on the circle, and pushed a bit of fire towards the bison on the other side.

You should meet us there” - “You comfortable?” He asked softly
Through The Living Glass She/They Posted February 17, 2025 Posted February 17, 2025 12 hours ago, Halcyon The Only said: That helped steady him a bit. Made him feel a little less like a glob of gum scraped off a shoe. He squeezed her hand and knocked on the ornate doors. “Come in,” a deep voice boomed. Bat did so, and took a seat at the table before the raised crescent-shaped one. There were five members again, since Ruia was gone now. Thinly veiled sighs sounded through the room when they saw it was Bat. Tam sat next to him. 2 hours ago, TwinStorm said: YOU BEEN RESTING FOR A WHILE Cricket didn't realize it, but he most certainly was. Where had Rose even gone, anyway? I SWORE THAT YOU WERE DEEEEEEAD WHEN YOU WASHED UP ON MY ISLE

I SWORE THAT YOU WERE DEEEEEEAD WHEN YOU WASHED UP ON MY ISLE Bat licked his lips and swallowed. “I… I have a report.” “Get on with it,” griped an older woman. “Gaioh— the soul— he… he’s dead. Rose is fine— I think she’s at her home again.” ”At least he did something right,” a man muttered to the woman. He wilted, gaze dropping to the table. He knew they didn’t expect him to hear— it had always been his curse, his hearing— but it was still somehow hard to ignore. “And your friend? Don’t tell me you’ve captured a Narrator, Whitlock.” Hw shook his head. “Th- this is Ava. She, uh… the Narrator kept threatening her too,” he lied. “She’s nice, and she’s… very good at making muffins…” “Knowing him, she is the Narrator.” Snickers. “If she wants to stay, she’ll need to get tattoos,” the woman said, sounding annoyed. “Now run along.” They didn’t care about his report, did they? His heart sunk. “I— I can move Nullite around,” he blurted desperately. The councilwoman raised an eyebrow, looking very annoyed. Just now, TwinStorm said: Yeah. I think I'll stay till I know Rose is okay. Wait... why are y'all at the council building? DID YOU KNOW YOU TALK IN YOUR SLEEP? I have to give a report.

TwinStorm He/Him Posted February 17, 2025 Posted February 17, 2025 Just now, Halcyon The Only said: Yeah. Rose didn’t return. He glanced nervously around. He felt alone here, surrounded by these rich nobles, without her. Maybe... maybe I will join you, if you don't mind.

Maybe wait… it’d look really weird if you just appeared… Rose curled up in the storehouse. It was better than being in the ballroom, she told herself. No matter how lonely or dark or cold it felt. It was better… Edited February 17, 2025 by Halcyon The Only
