[long.

pause.]






Right. Just 'cause I'm fuckin' the guy doesn't mean he's gotta trust me that much.

Anyway, get outta my way or I will make you. And I'd rather play nicely with the guy he had a lotta feelin's about than not, y'know?

[Luc looks blank at all of this, like, sorry, what the fuck.

... ya seriously don't trust me that much, huh.

Good to know.

2/2

[ohlord]

[ANYWAY, I GUESS IT'S TIME TO INSPECT THE WALLS BECAUSE ONLY OTHER THING HE CAN THINK OF IS LUC BEING CHARON UNDER AN ILLUSION, SO.

ELIMATE THIS OPTION FIRST, THEN HARASS THE DEAD BOYFRIEND MORE.

frankly just looks cranky and tired.]

[there's no illusions here buddy. the rune and his flower aren't reacting.]

I don't know why I should trust you, when I don't know who you are.

[ohlord]

Can't remember my name so I go by Styx.

[CHECKING. THE FLOORS?]

Damn it... he's not hidin' in some trauma room or somethin', right?

[endsjustified]

He's hiding from a threat.

I'm here to assess anything that follows. You're not putting up a great showing, so far.

[ohlord]

If you're wantin' me to be an innocent lamb, then sorry, not gonna happen.

And he knows that.

But I guess if he still figures me for a threat, then I'll just have to be more stubborn than him about it and drag his ass out from wherever he's hidin'. Yer help or no.

[endsjustified]

I don't have particular expectations of you. I'm just a guard.

[he holds a hand out.]

Show me that he's safe, and I'll show you where he is.

[ohlord]

[... taking his hand.]

What, just think about it or somethin'?

[guess we're giving that whole mental exercise a go. how does share memory of Blossom and Lily+Minuet's Adventure? he trying?]

[endsjustified]

[yeah he can just memshare like he might in one of the rituals, no big.

Luc makes a little 'huh' noise.]

...right. Follow me.

[ohlord]

[muttering about how the rescue was actually the EASIER part...

but following after him...]

I get why, but still...

[this is Worry, ftr]

[endsjustified]

Safeguards aren't meant to be comforting. Who has time for niceties, at times like this...?

[you've made it.]
