*Wins with steak.*

I look into Fox's eyes without fear. Though I can neither move nor speak I project as much love and strength as I can with my gaze. The tears have stopped. My breathing is steady as is the light coming off of my body.

*Wins covered in maple syrup.*

Mt turn *Wins covered sugar.*

Tick Tock? The magic castle.

Why are you making a whirring sound? There is nothing to see here move on.

I don't react to Fox's fairly obvious gesture. I shoot the demon a dark look that could shatter a wall of steel before returning my gaze to Fox it softens pain etching itself deeply. I believed as you do for 11 millennia. I failed a friend, a brother, a son, a student. I let him be banished until the end of time for my stupidity." Tears start sliding down my face. "I ran from this demon his shadow holding me in a suffocating embrace. I could never escape him. I would close mt eyes and there he was accusing me. I sealed myself away so that I could escape him and never fail anyone ever again. It did not help. It made things so much worse. I thought that I deserved to suffer and so I did. How could I ever move beyond this? Alone I could not. As I battled it in this place I was not alone you were there Fox as were the other members of the Fellowship. My battle was doomed from the start. Yet I fought anyway and now I can live knowing that the demon exists, but has no more power over me. You are not alone. You have the fellowship and me." I send a concentrated ingot of light through our bond. I will it to stay with her and not dissipate. "That Ingot is yours it is of me. Even if I should be trapped here I will be with you always. You need not know how to control your past you only need to live each moment as the sovereign of your past." My tears continue to fall. I am not being punished I am giving you and the others a chance. It is not true Fox that none love you Fox. Even if you don't know them they are there. The Fellowship cares for you and in so short a time Fox I have grown to care for you in ways I have not for so long. You will learn to love in time this I promise you." My voice remains strong despite the tears. You bring humanity to the Fellowship Fox. Your power is greater than any magic that I have ever known. I left my friend to die my honor is very much in question. They need you Fox. You ground them. You remind them why they fight. You threaten to stab them with your knives. They don't have that happen every day." My tears slow.

*Wins.*

Do you believe in the passions? The door prizes ran out.

Writing a good piece poetry.

Do you like pyrotechnics? What’s the worst thing to say when your car breaks down in the middle of traffic and your siblings are with you?

Have a good trip. What’s the worst thing to say when you are chosen to lead the survivors on the desert Island?

Oh?

"Let her leave Winter. Let them all leave. What can they give you that I cannot? I will stay if you let them go to the place of their choosing and you never do anything to them again. Fox when you go, leave your demons behind. I would have been here sooner, but I had demons of my own to exorcise. You alone can defeat them. You are a survivor. You have made it. You control your past it does not control you. It will whisper lies into your ears. It will tell you that you deserve to suffer and that you are weak. It promises to save you if you give in. It can say nothing else for you have survived it and moved beyond it. Desperation makes it speak these words. There is no other way for it to gain control. It took me until now to realize this." I send through our mental connection the same warming light as before. @KyL

You did not really need that anyway. What’s the worst thing to say when someone asks if their diet is working?

You know I could run the country better. What’s the worst thing to say when you are stuck babysitting your sibling?

Oh you are serious? The worst thing you could say when your parents ask you to shovel snow.

*Wins.*

*Wins.*

Most.

You know, I think that we should watch it again. The worst thing you can say when boarding a bus

*Wins.*

"Yo boss, when can I take a vacation?" What's the worst thing to say if you are waiting in the doctor's office?

*Wins.*
