I'm sure they're experienced enough to know that a fireball is something to dodge, darling.

[ hmm. ]

Yes, that is a issue we need to sort out.

[alldoomnogloom]

Well, I expect that it will be solved enough by being able to perhaps pick and choose where we are able to go. Such as, picking a timeline in which we are all together.

That said, I ... suppose we should consider the possibility that this will not work.

[haematocritical]

It would've been good if there'd been a way to merge memories with a version of us from a singular timeline, but perhaps that would've been too complicated to really pull off without more rocks we don't have.

[ ........................ ]

I'd rather not.

[alldoomnogloom]

Well, the Overseers are comprised of mad scientists and powerful arcane users, I don't know that there isn't a solution in that either.

[ he's not against that attempt, actually. ]

... Not at all?

[haematocritical]

... You're not wrong about that actually.

[ ... ]

It sounds like giving up, more than anything. Quite frankly, I could just bring you back with me in a worst case scenario where we can't figure things out.

[alldoomnogloom]

[ he makes a soft snort. ]

Yes? Like spare luggage?

[haematocritical]

You called yourself that, not me.

[ a spare whatsit at a wedding. ]

You're not going back to the timeline where you exploded, even if the timeframe is all sorted, darling.

[alldoomnogloom]

And what are you planning to do with the other me?

[ HOPEFULLY NOTHING? ]

[ DON'T BE JEALOUS OF YOURSELF HELLO? ]

I figured I'd sicc you on yourself first. If there's anyone who can match your love of chatter and magical theory discussion and warm up to the theory behind alternative universe clones in about ten minutes, it's you.

[alldoomnogloom]

Fair enough.

[ holding out both his hands, gesturing for astarion's. gibe. ]

... No matter what happens, I'm very glad you were here.

[haematocritical]

[ he will gib, but he's frowning a little. ]

You're making it all sound very final. [ dislike. ] Maybe we're going to be fine and I'm going to take up a lie as a trophy partner and swan around your home and lounging on your furniture.

[alldoomnogloom]

Hardly final. Just want to make sure I have said things that should be said in case of the worst.

[ squeezing the hands. ]

I am personally a great proponent of the plan in which you come to stake your claim in the tower to your heart's content.

[ grumbly because he gets why he just doesn’t want!! to hear it because it sounds like they’re about to go get murdered by a cult god!! :angy: ]

I do like the idea of lounging. Quite a lot, actually. [ imagine being emotionally competent and just saying ‘I’d like to take you up on that offer ]
