[jobchange]

It is awfully forward of you to offer.

[He says it in a tone that makes it quite clear that what he meant was "you've got some balls and I hate it".]

[innerdaemons]

[ his shoulders lift, flippant ]

I shall take that as a no, then?

[avestan]

I'd be fine with that if it was someone else. But the thing about Dia is that she's too dumb to protect herself.

[innerdaemons]

That's quite unkind to say, isn't it?

[innerdaemons]

What I had meant to say, is that I feel that she deserved to know. Or would you have preferred it remain a secret, hmm?

[jobchange]

If you can kiss me while keeping a three-yalm distance, go ahead.

[crimeson]

Of course. Wanna help?

[innerdaemons]

Your hand, then ... ?

[innerdaemons]

If you were carrying parts around, yes.

[mind_blown]

I can't imagine it made her day better.

There's a spectrum of responses you can have t' your killer. And she and I are on opposite ends of 'em.

[auguryofinnocence]

Oh. No, that's just because of all the murder. Both as perpetrator and victim.

[jobchange]

[Pauses. Does he want to explain what a yalm is? Is this how he's going to spend his day?

...Nah.]

...Fine.

[He will hold his hand out! As far as possible, while tense as a wire.]

[avestan]

[shrug]

I'm an unkind person.

[innerdaemons]

[ he lifts a hand with (1) finger up, drinking from a yellow vial and making a bit of a face at the taste before he takes his hand --

and leans forward to place a kiss on the back of it, sooo gentlemanly. ]

[innerdaemons]

I cannot imagine it made it better, no, but I imagine in the end she would have preferred to know as well rather than be kept in the dark. Your motives did involve her, after all.

[innerdaemons]

[ he laughs! ]


Certainly carrying around parts would not help.

[mind_blown]

... Probably not.

[he considers, and grabs another vial.]

Fuck, if we're gonna have this chat, I want to fucking win with it.

[innerdaemons]

You needn't worry regardless. I shall not harm her.

[innerdaemons]

So eager for my company, now?

[ he'll debate before taking another vial himself ]

[auguryofinnocence]

Not really, but then I was already so far gone it couldn't have really made it worse either.

[innerdaemons]

Fair enough!

[ he's picking up another vial ]

Did you wish to try for another or are you spreading your choices of partner around?

[jobchange]

[Thancred is honestly just glad he's not shaking right now. Impulse says to either run or take a swing, but he stays still and cold instead.]

Good enough for you?

[innerdaemons]

Yes, in fact.

[ he straightens up, looking pleased with himself; ]

You have my thanks for indgulging me.

[innerdaemons]

Of course!

[ he lifts a finger, drinking from an orange vial before gesturing him closer. ]

[auguryofinnocence]

Hm, I guess it's best to cover my bases.

[He takes one too then, yellow.]
