And you don’t drop them? That is quite impressive. [ his tome collection. ]
… [ after a moment of consideration he shakes his head ]
Nothing that the Swamp hasn’t already dealt with. Stop fretting, other than being sore and grumpy I’ll be fine. [ he’ll give his hand a little squeeze. ]
[ he doesn't necessarily sound as if he believes that astarion being grumpy is a good outcome but he'll let him do this if he wants. i'm sure he'll be fine. he'll be fine! ]
... Not a bad location, overall, no? It's been quite a while since we've been anywhere with a fully intact roof, let alone some semblance of comfort.
True. Did this just appear out of nowhere…? Perhaps we should be more suspicious of it, but I truly am not sure I can bring myself to care when it has an actual bed. [ so comfy. so cosy. ]
Perhaps a reward for exploration of some kind? Or yes, some kind of horrible trap we will come to regret.
[ gently pulling him back over to lean against his shoulder again. ]
... I think you'd quite like Waterdeep, actually. I don't know how attached you are to Baldur's Gate, but it is known as the City of Splendors for a reason.
[ he allows himself to be pulled, and, after a moment, turns his face so he can curl a little closer. healed though he may be, the swamp still has side effects and they are more than a little distracting. ]
I can’t say I have many strong memories of it before everything. And most of my other memories are of some of the worst parts of it — then again, I was certainly part of all that. [ hmm. ] You did always sing Waterdeep’s praises.
[ look they can not have defined anything but the nature of the undefined relationship seemed to include casual contact so, taking advantage of that. schnuggling. ]
You would enjoy it greatly! Even after the sun has set the streets are lively, there’s almost always some sort of festival or another happening - there’s arts and music and magic abounding. The food is also difficult to beat.
[ well he’s realizing he’s uhauling right in the middle of doing it but i guess forging ahead anyway. no turning this subaru around. ]
Only if the thought appeals, of course. I wouldn’t wish to tie you down to anywhere you didn’t wish to go. It’s a large tower, as well. Plenty of room.
Truly, I hadn’t considered the after. [ … ] I’d like to travel around without the tadpoles, or Cazador breathing down my neck. Waterdeep included.

[ anyway, ]
... Where, exactly, are you hurt still? I should probably know just in case.
no subject
[ stop that ]
… Less than before. The wounds on my legs are a little sore but ultimately not going to kill me. [ robin with the steel chair after though. ]
no subject
You know very well I am not. I'm saying there are likely tomes in my collection that weigh as much as two of you.
[ frowning a bit, looking him over to see if he can't see what's wrong exactly. ]
Still-- did you need medication? Food?

Only time will do the rest.

i’m so glad they were disasters about this. bg3 continues to be the (flurry voice) lesbian u-haul game even outside of the game itself. ]

Are you suggesting I pay it a visit once our many pressing issues are resolved? [ cults, the brain, the tadpoles, etc etc ]
no subject
I wouldn’t be bringing it up if that weren’t the case? [ optimistic? yes. ] More than a visit, if you’d like.
no subject
he’s so optimistic. we love confidence. ]
Oh? Less holiday, more relocation?
