No, I linked arms with you for the hilarity of watching you stumble when I ripped my arm away.

[ of course he's coming along, nerd. ]

Yes, well. If we have somewhere passably decent to look around for once, I might as well make the most of it.

It's better a few of the recent options we've had. This one has more food, for one thing.

[ it looks like there's mostly clothes in there. maybe some accessories. ]

... I haven't heard anything about it yet, so perhaps not.

[ you stab a gal and all you get is depression. ]

Perhaps not. I think I asked Vin a few days after she took out Nona, so there could be a delay.

[ ... yeah sure he can stare at the tits. he can also stop walking, spin gale around and tug his shirt open in front of god and everyone because that's funny. ]

[ SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP HE'S LOOKIN' also i am begging them to talk. anyway.


he's absolutely touching it, so enjoy that. it just looks and feels totally normal? zero rancid orb energy? at all? ]


So you went ahead and used your wish then.

Your shirt can be rebuttoned. Or just get a new one.

[ maybe one that hides the scar so everyone thinks he'll still go boom. ] No deterrent needed then. [ hmm. ]

Good. Now you know it works, it makes sense to get what you want.

[ when gale shows up dead on friday i'm flying to nyc to fight you ]

We could say that about a lot of things we've done here, I think. The orb's gone, at least. That's... one less thing, at least. [ and hey, that's something. in the middle of all the bs! that's something.


also pff. ]
There's no one here, you know. What are you being shy about?

I was never good at planning anyway.

[ fix all the things, ????, profit! sounds good to him. ] Too overwhelming. You get lost in your own mess.

[ i hate him actually. but he does chuckle at that before doing a slow circle around gale. this is bound to make him feel less self-conscious and comfortable. ]

Oh, I wouldn't worry. You look very dashing, my dear. The lack of a goddess given curse really gives you a glow.

I stand by it. It was a good plan. Stabbing Cazador worked out just fine for me.

[ rattles the secret thing. astarion is just -- pleased with himself? there's always going to be that undercurrent of misery after this weekend, it's all very fresh and raw, too much so for silly little shops and restaurants to fully bandage over.

but there's a pleased sort of contentment there from the company. and a secret thing :/ ]


You're welcome. [ pats his arm before taking it hostage again. ]

[ he makes a little 'meh' noise. it worked out. the bastard died. and yeah. the tits remain free. who said planning did you any good anyway?

... ]


We know she's somewhere. Just... not where that somewhere is. [ ... he leans to rest his head on gale's shoulder a little tiredly. it's probably very awkward, given they're still walking, but he does it anyway. ] But, true. She has a way of filling up a room.

I get the impression some people would've liked to say goodbye to her. But frankly, I'm not sure how much I can bring myself to care. [ it is incredibly selfish, given they had plenty of time to say their goodbyes. and just as selfish given they would've tried to save her if they could, but he thinks if he'd had to line up and wait for everyone to cry and hug her goodbye he might've lost his mind. ]

[ he’s been grumpy every other time this has happened but this here? he doesn’t really mind it. ]

Well, if anyone comes to me wanting to know why I’ll send them your way to explain in great detail. I’m not sure I wouldn’t just tell them to go away.

[ don’t do that. ]

I think it would’ve made it harder for her. And I think I’ve had a-bloody-nough of that.

[ (gazes into the distance but in emotion form) ]

Yes, well. I suppose in someone like him it would cause a level of trauma he wouldn’t be used to.

[ bringing her back wasn’t likely to change that, but he truly does not have the time or inclination to worry about whether todomatsu is traumatised now. he has priorities and that is not one of them. ]

…

[ well. one thing about emotionshare is the inability to hide quite the same. he has gale’s arm in an inescapable grip so it’s not hard to tug him in and press a kiss to his cheek. there’s a blip of something like bewilderment and fluster immediate after, but nothing to suggest discomfort. ]

You’re hardly as all loving as Karlach, my dear, but who is? I wouldn’t worry too much though — you’re far better than most.

[ hello. ]

I didn’t hug enough last week so that’s probably why half of us are going around hugging each other now…?

[ that’s not quite the same though. ]

…

[ hm. wait. ]

That’s— [ hang on. he has no! idea! what he’s doing! ] That’s that and this is this though. You were plenty affectionate last week? [ why the freaking out!!! he says freaking out.

aside from just the general emotions of i don’t know whaaat i’m doing, his emotions aren’t uncomfortable or suggest he’s unhappy with any of this ]
