On the distractions of canon reviews

[conjuredskies]

Hey, no getting stuck in the past. Not- ah, not that I don’t appreciate the visit home. Even if it is just to gather information for your sinister plots. But I need you to concentrate on important things now, like finding interesting work or, you know, keeping my foot out of my mouth. I mean, if you’re going to have me take an avalanche to the brains, the least you could do is keep them intact.

Besides. Lovely as it might be, that’s… not exactly the Cyrodiil I know. Something for you to keep in mind while you're running around staring at the carpets.

Whoa, hang on, 'sinister plots'? Sinister?

… That is not the kind of adjective I want to hear.

[conjuredskies]

There's nothing to- I was exaggerating a little. You know the kind of schemes these people come up with when they get ideas.

[rae_of_sun]

Well, yes, but… what kind of schemes are we talking about, here? Because the ideas mine comes up with usually tend towards the goddamn embarrassing end of the spectrum and not, y'know… sinister.

[conjuredskies]

I'm sure things are as sinister for us as they're going to get.

[There's a few ways to take that, Felix.]

Honestly, most of it is probably about as dreadful as coming up with more embarrassing family stories. Maybe some, uh, interesting opportunities that might come up by my time. And... I suppose there was something about trying to pick up a few more details on Meridia. But that's not necessarily a bad sign for us. If we can get more information on how she usually operates, it's bound to help.

[rae_of_sun]

'Interesting' is such a broad term.

But, okay, the point about Meridia is… fair.

[conjuredskies]

And a very important quality.

[Have a pleased smile.] Good. Especially because I think her cult was actually active back then, or at least much easier to find than it is nowadays.

[So were her Aurorans, but let's not mention that.]
