Who: consultmybooks, lostinmyway, their respective CRs, and...let's face it, anyone wondering what this guy is doing with a Grim Reaper reflection
What: Trying to sort out these mind control shenanigans
When: December 27th to January 2nd
Where: EVERYWHERE
Summary: Dhaos has successfully managed to break apart one of the most faithful friendships in Luceti, and the ripples are spreading to other, unintended targets. Whether it's with some good, old fashioned magic in return or just trying to sit Giles down for a talk, more than a few people have determined to get to the bottom of these strange happenings.
Rating: PG to PG-13 for emotionally upsetting stuff


It was a quiet little collapse, a quiet little ending. The victim never even knew that it had happened, and probably never would.

But the step had been taken, the spell cast, the damage done. Soon after, the changes would begin to be noticed by the near and the dear. What they did with their suspicions was entirely up to them.

Giles feels bad for hurting her, but only as one might feel bad at having to face a particularly messy and difficult social encounter. The soul rending hurt at having to avoid one of his dearest friends is buried deep down inside, unknown to him. So he went about his life, shyer and more inclined to avoid even his friends and his little makeshift family.

Unless you saw a flash of black robe and white bone in the nearest reflective surface, however, there are certainly half a dozen explanations one might come up with. Unless, of course, he's been avoiding you, too.

One thing, however, was probably for certain.

No one made Grune return home with such an utterly heartbroken expression, not without being punished.

((ooc: Despite appearances, this is meant to be a mass interaction type log as much as anything. A lot of you seemed like you were comparing notes for further interaction, so here is your place to have it. Tag around, posit your own theories out of Giles' earshot, hit the books and comfort bewildered Grunes. Actual harrassment of the poor guy will have to wait until I wake up.))
