on being submitted to an experiment--

[diplomatique]

I implore you to reconsider.

There are other options available for your return. Resorting to magickal experimentation does not have to be the choice you choose, Lady Mundane.

Magickal experimentation?

:D

[diplomatique]

These tests would result in my body warping to mimic Lord Brother's when the magickal energy from the nethicite I carried affected him. And once in such a form, it seems I will be sensitive to magicks, thus they see point to document and examine the effects using magicite and nethicite. To my knowledge, this will be a drawn out experiment, as shards of both will find home in my body after all is done, to force me into prolonged pain.

It is... not the return I hoped.

8D

My Lord!

[ Gabranth says no way in hell. Mun says it's none of his business. Gabranth isn't really listening. ]

Such a thing would be madness. [ Of the Bergan and Lord Vayne variety. Which he failed to quell, as we remember. ]

It cannot happen.

8D!

[diplomatique]

[ oh, Gabranth. his heart hurts a little at his words, but he stiffens his shoulders. ]

Arrangements were made in its favor, but I believe there is still time allotted to choose between this and a tamer option. I hope she chooses otherwise, but I realize that as much as I may want her to, she may not heed my pleading.

an ikkle lordling <3

[strayspride]

[ Gabranth is very determined. Probably won't do him musch good, but... ]

I would have this pass from you, Lord Larsa.

[ A pause. ]

Or I would be there for you with it.

[ He could do it this time, protect Larsa for all the times he failed. He would do the test himself, to spare his lord the burden, for what is the broken body of a not-even-man? But that is not within his power. ]

<3 and his favorite guardian ;o;

[diplomatique]

[ he doesn't want to be protected. he wants this not to happen at all, not to him, or to anyone else and especially not in his place, he'd likely cry with guilt. ]

Stealing a deserved rest from you hardly seems fair.

Hushhush, Gabs can't be the favorite

[strayspride]

[ It might do a great deal in assuaging some of Noah's guilt, if only temporarily. And like always with Larsa Gabranth is just PROTECT ALL THE THINGS


He is somewhat taken aback that Larsa things he deserves anything, much less rest. ]

It would lose the rest simply by nature of it being a possibility, my lord. It would be more peaceful were I to accompany you. [ Or take such burden from Lord Larsa entirely ]

He totally can~

[diplomatique]

[ Damn it, Gabranth.

Larsa is firm when he speaks, earnest in his words. ]

If you truly believe so, I will not stop you.

so happy to see Larsa :3

[freedomintheskies]

And your writer is the one who chose this for you?

[cloudborne]

The tampering of magicks of any kind is always a foolhardy endeavor. Surely they'll reconsider.

*////*

[strayspride]

[ Already rather damned, tbh ]

I would not wish to burden you, my lord, if you would prefer it otherwise.

[ Yes. Yes he does believe so. ]

so happy to see Fran! >w<

[diplomatique]

After deliberation, this is her final choice.

[diplomatique]

So I had hoped. She's chosen to continue and has made this her final decision.

c:

[diplomatique]

I prefer your presence, be it by my side or through spirit. It is your choice.

<3!!! ^^

[freedomintheskies]

These mundanes are something of sadists, I have learned. Is there no way to avoid this fate?

[diplomatique]

There are many, but none that my mundane would allow of me.

[ once again, he's powerless to watch as this befalls him... at the very least this isn't inflicted on others. ]

[freedomintheskies]

Then you must cope without fear. Though it is much easier spoken than acted.

[diplomatique]

So many things are.

To be brave in face of this circumstance--it should be difficult... but not impossible.

[freedomintheskies]

Exactly.

[goodness, she wishes him the best. Truly.]

[diplomatique]

Thank you for your words. They are very much appreciated.

[ he bows his head. ]
