Edema Rue

He smiled. “I’ll stay, then. Any…ah…advice? For avoiding the danger?”

What was left of Eddie’s mind flinched back, terrified. No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no. The word felt less like speaking and more like a beating heart.

Ack sorry I’m late!! That stinks. I’m so sorry. I feel it too, I get up at 5 every morning and can never fall asleep, and I know that it really makes everything seem worse. I wish I knew a way to help, but…yeah. Ugh. *hugs* *hugs hugs* We love you, MP!! You’re incredible, and funny and talented. You deserve more than this world will ever give you. Don’t let it or your mind ever tell you otherwise.

GREMLIN EDDIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TERROR TO THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! @The Wandering Wizard eddie has been (possibly) sacrificed. @TheRavenHasLanded

"I am not expected home for several days," Fen said, "but if it would be improper for me to stay here, then I'm more than happy to find my own accommodations."

Rue froze, listening to Rue. I understand, a piece of her whispered. She opened a gateway under DGJM. He fell through.

Eddie's tired mind accepted, letting the ice encase her and remake her into something new. The roaring bonfire in her heart had gone out. Ashes were all that remained. So she let herself freeze, though no part of her was conscious enough to recognize that she had made a choice. Oblivion. Whatever part of her soul was left scrambled desperately into the cold darkness of oblivion. There was no need to think there, no need to regret, no need to remember. No need to think of love or pain or fire or care. No need to suffer through change, no need to control a world that only wanted freedom. Just silence. Cold silence. Perhaps there was a person in the ice, somewhere, but perhaps not. Perhaps all that remained was a corpse, preserved by the unnatural cold. And the ice itself wanted nothing more than to obey. To serve. To work without questioning or choosing. Because if it wasn't her choice, then it couldn't be her fault.

Rue looked back, eyes cold, as if daring him to speak. But she wove air, hardening it around his mouth so that he couldn't make a sound or even open his mouth.

Eddie didn't respond physically or mentally. The dragon sensed a sort of blankness to her, like a canvas with all the paint burned off, left empty save for a few scars.

"As do I," Fen said, sounding faintly melancholy. "As do I."

Eddie coughed and sat up. Her eyes were bloodshot and...empty.

Eddie shivered and started convulsing. @The Wandering Wizard

Rue listened, not entering.

The tentacle wasn't letting go, and the waves were only growing bigger.

That was good!! I don’t know why it autobolds (or why it removes italics) but if you click past as plain text right after pasting it’ll unbold it.

GUYS I’M NOT STUCK AS AN OOKLA HOORAY!!

GETS A VERY EXCITED EDDIE Inserts Kvothe

He frowned, looking up at the sky. "The nobility are...cruel. I wish it were not so, but...I will love you, Lady."

"Thank you," Fen said. "I'll strive not to disappoint you."

Rue nodded. "Do we go in anyway?" She mouthed.
