[ she nods. time to move on. ]

Right. Did you see we'll be sharing rooms with people while we're here?

[ brilith has only ever had to share with agni... what's it like, having real roommates? she's excited to find out. ]

[oathic]

Hm... have you met your roommates yet?

[infire]

Not yet. I was going to look for them soon.

[oathic]

I hope they can be good friends to you, then.

[and if not he'll kill them it's fine]

[infire]

[ she allows herself a small smile. ]

That would be nice.

[ there's no need to be the priestess here, if neither her nor agni's magic is working. maybe that means she can have friends, instead of remaining on the lonely pedestal upon which atera has placed her...? ]

Well, I'll have to meet them first to find out. Have you seen them yet? It's Missile and Mammon.

[oathic]

[it says a lot about brilith's life that she can be "wow maybe there are upsides to being abducted."]

Nope. Interesting names, though.

[infire]

[ STOP ]

They are... But different planets have different ways of doing things, don't they? I wonder if they'd mind telling me about their homes sometime.

[ she's entirely too excited to make friends and learn things ]

[oathic]

[he gets the feeling this goes beyond the scope of just planets, but he'll let brilith figure that out for herself.]

Most people are probably pretty happy to talk about where they're from. Just like if anyone asked you about Atera, right?

[infire]

But it's better if they see Atera for themselves. Then I wouldn't have to tell them how beautiful the city is.

[oathic]

[this is so soft. agni loves it but jan fears because this will inevitably lead to you hurting me]

That's true. But if they can't travel, then you'll just have to do the description justice, Priestess.

[infire]

[ :knife: ]

I don't know if I'll be able to do it justice... but I can certainly try.

[ and try she will!! no one loves atera more than brilith ruin. probably. even if she still doubts that sometimes. ]

If they can bring us here, though, you don't think there'd be a way to visit the other planets these people are from, too?

[oathic]

Maybe, though it must be a long way from home. [a beat.] Well, I guess that means if anyone does visit, you'd have to make it extra special for them.

[infire]

That's true! We'd have to make sure to give them a full tour of Atera, and of course we'd help them find the best accommodations available...

[ why is she planning a vacation for people she just met ]

[oathic]

Too bad Agwen isn't still there. I bet she'd be great at tours... Well, the temple should work fine, right? Special guests of the Priestess!

[infire]

I'm sure we could find someone, if we asked around.

[ she brightens. ]

The temple could work! As long as they don't try to enter the central temple, the temple magicians wouldn't have any reason to object.

[oathic]

We can have a party!

[pls feed him]

[infire]

[ she laughs softly. ]

That’s true. We haven’t had one in a while, have we?

[ because there’s no reason to but sure ]

[oathic]

[yeah everything is unfortunately about to be on fire back home]

Make sure there's lots of food!

[infire]

[ LET HER DREAM ]

Of course! It wouldn't be a party without it.

[oathic]

So, I get to have some, right?

[infire]

...If you’re there, then yes. But you’ve been busy lately, haven’t you?

[oathic]

... Well, yes, but...

[infire]

[ ... ]

I'll try to make sure they come when you have some time.

[ it's been so hard to tell when that is, though... ]

[oathic]

... I'm sure Chandra won't mind if I dump some of my work onto him for a little while.

[chandra would absolutely mind but who cares about chandra's opinion.]

[infire]

It’ll only be for a night. That shouldn’t be too bad.

[ laila won’t appreciate it since she’s the one who has to deal with chandra



but if it’s only one night, it should be fine, right? ]
