Return!

[vanyel_ashkevron]

I'm tired, Mun. What do you wish of me? I have played your games before and found little enjoyment in them.

[He looks up from darning a blanket. Why yes, he can darn. Shut up. It's manly.]

What do you mean anything is possible?

Comments

[vanyel_ashkevron]

Obviously. [Hey he can't deny it.]

I don't want you to pay a price for me. I wish I could give you a comfortable existence.

[wildgift]

[Congratulations, Van, you made him laugh.]

As if living on Palace grounds and being guarded night and day isn't comfortable.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

[He wants to hear more of that laughter.]

Will you stay behind when I go on Circuits?

[wildgift]

Yes, Van. Unlike some people, I happen to like my own skin.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

[He smiles and nods.]

I approve. I have a feeling I will miss you.

[wildgift]

I'll miss you too.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

I'm sure you will have plenty of company in my absence.

[wildgift]

I doubt that.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

Why?

[wildgift]

I already told you I don't want other company.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

I wasn't necessarily talking about that.

[wildgift]

Well, I won't get much of the other kind, either, so long as Court needs to be held. But I suppose so long as I don't end up in another closet, I'll be alright.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

Avoid them at all cost - otherwise I will bring my wrath down on the person who traps you.

[wildgift]

It wasn't exactly my choice, Van. I'd be more concerned about the Healers and their "studies" than I would the terrible beasts that are closets.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

At least the Healers don't have romantic intentions.

…or do they?

[wildgift]

Neither did the closet.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

Thank the Havens.

[wildgift]

Indeed. I doubt it will have to happen again, though.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

If it concerns you, you're welcome to use my rooms. That should make a bold statement.

[wildgift]

Well, I sure as hell didn't sleep in the closet. And besides, your bed is much better than mine.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

I realize, but no one will mess with you if they know I might come back at any moment. [He winks.]

[wildgift]

Oh you are devious.

[vanyel_ashkevron]

I am protective of those I care about.

[wildgift]

I think I prefer "devious."

[vanyel_ashkevron]

If you find that alluring then, yes, I am devious.
