  1. Blinking, Janice responded with a small, "oh."
  2. "Hm. Oh! What's your Aspect?"
  3. "You should use your hat as a weapon." Janice suggested.
  4. "Well it's not like there's anywhere else for me to go." Janice replied. "And everyone else I know can fight."
  5. Ivian was tired--but he also felt very fulfilled. He'd finished decreeing a number of laws providing extended rights to all citizens; and later today he was going to negotiate trade deals between a number of noble estates. In a week he'd have border disputes settled, a marriage overseen, and federally-supervised province militias established. Recently, a merchant's caravan discovered a series of ore veins not far from the capital; Ivian had bought the deed from them for no small sum of money, and was currently searching for miners to work them as well as people to certify as official minters. Hopefully he could increase circulation of currency over the course of a few years. Still... for now he had a moment to catch his breath. Ivian fetched a glass of wine to sip and collapsed onto his throne. In less than an hour he'd have the peasants lining up to make petitions, so it was probably best to get what rest he could.
  6. "Oh." Janice scratched the back of her head. "When you said you didn't know either I thought you were talking about yourself, not Torao. Heh."
  7. Janice pointed at them. "I mean... those are your weapons, right?"
  8. "What about your ice swords?"
  9. "Thank you, miss Louis," Wendy said, pulling on a regular waitress uniform that the woman had nabbed from the laundry. "Thanks for everything." "Oh, please, dear. There's no thanking about it." Louis smiled at her. "I wasn't much older than you myself when I had Ivian." "When you had--" Wendy blinked. "You're--" "Let me know if you need anything. I'm going to make sure that drunkard gets thrown in jail or... I dunno. At least gives you money." With that, Louis left.
  10. Wendy sucked in a breath. "Okay, um... I guess I'll see you... later. It probably isn't good for us to... um..." She gestured awkwardly at the two of them on the bed.
  11. Today I got a lego dragon for less than twenty dollars.

    Faith in humanity: restored.

  12. Wendy nodded, still feeling very haunted. "I'm... sorry."
  13. "Because you..." Wendy looked down at the floor.
  14. She wasn't feeling any different; and that wasn't helped by the fact that the only thing she was wearing was a too-small, low-hanging night gown. Wendy pulled the hem inwards self-consciously. "I just... can you... help me?"
  15. Wendy didn't say anything. "I'd... like you to stay. For a little while."
  16. Wendy shivered. "I... don't know." She pushed herself off of Nicolae, feeling more than a little awkward doing so.
  17. Wendy woke up on something far comfier than the wooden slab that was her bunk back at the dorms. For one thing, the cushion beneath her was an actual cushion; and her head was resting on a surface much more... well, restful, than a pillow. All the memories rushed back, making Wendy simultaneously blush furiously and pale. "Nico?"
