@FelCandy, @Botanica, @Conjchamberlain, @Pines, @ProfetessaOscura, @Paintweaver, and @Koloss are some of my favourites on the Shard.

Oh well. Have a pie!

Late to this, but thanks!

Cruz showed up with a half-eaten hamburger.

Corwin finished nursing his wound.  He stood up, only slightly wobbly.  "Ready to go?  I could go for tacos."

Finn sighed. "Look, I don't know about this army, but back home, you behave like this and they would tie you up and carry you like a small child to the doc." He grimaced. "Trust, me, I've been on the receiving and giving end."

“Ain’t nothing can grab me or tie me,” he said stubbornly, “not anymore.”  He stared after Cadenza for a minute as they were leaving, then back at Finn. “You all just expect everyone to be normal and happy and trusting like you lot. Sans the ‘normal,’ I guess. But I just don’t think any of you lot would understand, even if I trusted you to actually listen.”

Corwin turned a glare on Cadenza and Finn.  "Was I clear enough?"  His shoulders shook slightly, like he was still a little scared, in spite of himself.

((This is just Corwin's meme, isn't it..?))

Janice crossed her arms. "But you can't go on pretending like all doctors are evil or something!"

"Oh, go write an essay if it's such a big standpoint for ya," he drawled, "I said what I said."

13 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

"You're gonna have to let people take care of you eventually, okay! You're in a volting army now; you can't work on your own!"

"What do you think happened back there?" he asked, "Not teamwork?  Just cuz I'm in an army doesn't mean I can't have basic boundaries."

On 10/13/2021 at 7:01 PM, Channelknight Fadran said:

"No. You aren't." Janice replied. "We'll be there, okay? If they start doing... whatever it is they shouldn't be doing, we can help."

"Ya deaf or something?" he sat down, planting his butt in the pavement.  "I said no."

4 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

"I..." She squared her shoulders. "We could... not all doctors are bad."

"Sure, but you don't know that until you're vulnerable," he said, "And I'm fine.  Honest."

6 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

Janice dropped her head. "Okay."

"It's not my parents or anything.  I just- I just knew some bad doctors is all.  I can take care of  myself.  Honest."

6 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

"Do you remember them?"

"Course not.  I just said they didn't care about me."

8 hours ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

"Hey Corwin," Janice found herself asking. "What happened to your parents?"

Corwin grimaced. “I don’t care. Like I said, I’m a street kid. They didn’t care about me, so I don’t care about them.”

18 minutes ago, Condensation said:

"No, sleeves aren't sanitary either."

“Then say that you told me so to my coffin,” he grimaced, exasperated. He kept wrapping his arm, nice and snug. 

3 hours ago, Flaming Coinshoot said:

Finn nodded. "Look, honestly, I'm new here, but I've served in a lot of settings and I know someone in need of medical attention when I see one. Just...it's fine. Go see someone qualified."

5 hours ago, Condensation said:

"But you won't be fine! That's why you did that!"

6 hours ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

Janice shrank away as well. "N--no."

Corwin flinched. “Look. I’ll be okay. I can take care of myself.  Honest.”  He started patching himself up with his sleeve, as if to prove it. 

1 hour ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

Janice grabbed his hand. "And you're all sweaty and gross!"

2 hours ago, Condensation said:

"You don't get to say 'no thanks'. Your arm is hurt!"

Corwin pulled his arm free of Janice abruptly, as if she’d just tried to cuff a shackle to it. “Leave me alone!” He shouted, directly in her face.  

He shrank back, stunned at his own words, at his anger. “I’m sorry.  I’ll be fine. Just no doctors.  I’m okay.”

54 minutes ago, Flaming Coinshoot said:

Finn dropped in front of Corwin and put a hand up like a traffic cop. "You need some medical attention, and as Brother Sparrow is with the other guy, you're going to the hospital. Don't make me drag you."

Just now, Condensation said:

Cadenza slid to a stop just behind Corwin, blocking his other way out. "Ha! Now you're going to get some proper medical care."

There was some kind of manic frenzy in Corwin’s eyes, a cold sweat on his skin.  He didn’t seem able to stop laughing, his skin in goosebumps. “No thanks,” he said. 

17 hours ago, Condensation said:

"Corwin!" Cadenza sent a sheen of ice across the pavement and rose to her skate blades in one graceful movement, leading to a step. Soon, she was swiftly gliding toward Corwin. "Stop right there!"

He disappeared into the mouth of an alley some twenty feet ahead. Jeez, he was quick, like a little rat. 

1 hour ago, Condensation said:

"What is it?" Cadenza turned around, scanning behind them.

1 hour ago, Channelknight Fadran said:

"Hm? What?" Janice turned to see where he was pointing.

Corwin bolted, feet slapping against pavement, laughing loudly. 

51 minutes ago, Condensation said:

¨What for? I´m not the injured one.¨

“Well, you’re certainly-“ he cut off sharply, jaw dropping. “What… in the world…”. He lifted a finger, pointing behind Cadenza. 

18 hours ago, Condensation said:

"I do. And I'm not taking no for an answer."

"Then you go see a doctor," he said, sticking his tongue out.

1 hour ago, Condensation said:

"That is not happening. You have access to healers now!"

“Yeah, but they’re expensive and busy with real emergencies. Who wants some stupid snot nosed kid who beat himself up to commandeer all the experts?”

“Mud dries up pretty quick and blocks the bleeding. Then you wrap it up snug. Didn’t you ever get in a street fight?”

“Really,” Corwin enthused, “I’ll slap some mud and a bandage on!  I’ll be good!  Right as rain!”

((In game time, fight probably took like 5 minutes.  Plus, Vespyr is in charge of one city, not nations or villages or the world. He’s trying to mount a defense, and the Queen’s attack has only proved him right, that there is a force out there that wants to end humanity. In all likelihood, more will flock to his ranks, funding will increase, etc. Fear is a great motivator, and she just gave the world perfect reason to fully back an offensive front.))
