Going to Mage City. Bret thought Bonnie and Cho needed protection because they're women. Taryn and Gabriel came, too.

And now we're caught in some storms so we're waiting them out in tents.

You got home okay?

[guns_and_coffee]

Bret's chivalry is charming.

Yes. I've been back since Monday.

[posinglikeaswan]

Was that sarcasm?

I'm glad you're okay. You sounded
It's wet.

[guns_and_coffee]

Well spotted.

Yes, rain has that effect on things.

[posinglikeaswan]

Why?

[pause]

I suppose it's a little sexist. Dad would've thought so.

Yes, well, it's also very cold.

[guns_and_coffee]

Out of that group, Bret strikes me as the one most in need of protection. Well, Bret and the alcoholic.

If you're cold, ask Cho to heat the tent. Or do it yourself. You are a magician.

[posinglikeaswan]

Yeah. He is a bit lady-like.

I can try. But Bret runs hot, so if that doesn't work we can he's, you know, there.

[guns_and_coffee]

Wear your coats and share one sleeping bag.

[posinglikeaswan]

Yeah.

I should've asked How are you?

[guns_and_coffee]

Better than I have been in a long time.

I picked something up for you while I was in Kingstown. Let me know when you're back, and I'll bring it over.

[posinglikeaswan]

That's great. I'm [pause] really happy for you.

You didn't have to do that.

[guns_and_coffee]

I'm aware.

[posinglikeaswan]

Oh.

Thank you.

[guns_and_coffee]

You're welcome.

Stay away from the mermaids.

[posinglikeaswan]

Fuck Yeah. Yeah.

Are they

Are

I will. We'll be back soon.

[guns_and_coffee]

Good.
