The tablet turns on, and Taxon is treated to a view of a table overflowing with... cleaning materials. There's some wax in there, and some cleanser, and the all-reliable wood polisher. There's even some bottles fit for cleaning sharp weapons. Also? Several wicked looking ragsIn fact, Cordelia picks up one of those rags and begins to attack the ( Read more... )

Not much right now. What's with the sword?

I'm gonna go and hunt me some aliens. [ she says this with a grin on her face. ]

[she laughs, for the first time in what feels like quite a while.]

I like this plan. How've you been?

Oh you know. [ she sighs. ] Some days are just better than others, what with people I know popping in and out of Taxon. You?

[there's a pause on her end.] I'm sorry. Who were they?

I've been...trying to deal with the memories I woke up with a while ago. So far I don't think I've been doing a very good job.

It's, um. This guy Doyle? He's... he's a good friend of mine. I haven't really talked to him for a long while now, but I always thought he's just around and stuff. I checked this morning and, well... [ another sigh here. ]

Memories? ...bad memories?

[she doesn't know what to say. she's already said 'i'm sorry' and it's not sufficient enough, anyway.] I hope he comes back. If, you know, you want him here.

And yeah. Things back at home are...not good. And there's something going on with me, specifically, that's kinda freaking me out.

[voice] glowingseer February 10 2010, 08:31:26 UTC
Well, he's... pretty much dead back home, so yeah. I just wish... [ that she actually checked up on him more often. or something. anything, actually. ]

There is? Max, are you okay?

[she goes quiet again, and she knows it's stupid to say it again but there's really nothing else to say.] ...I'm sorry.

[more silence, and then she locks the rest of the broadcast to cordy.]

I'm...well, like I said, I'm dealing. I don't know if you saw them before, and I didn't tell you about them, but when I woke up with memories, I also woke up with these.

- and then the transmission switches to visual. Specifically, a visual of Max's wrist and the runes that are on them.

The screen then pans up so Cordy can see Max's face.

"And there's more where those came from."

There's nothing but confusion on Cordelia's face now. "But... what are those things? Some sort of... mystic tattoos?"

"Something like that," she says, pulling her sleeve back down. "They're runes that popped up on my skin when I was back home." Her face contorts into a temporary frown. "Or...that I remembered popping up on my skin when I got the memories. I'm still not entirely sure how the whole memory thing works."

"I don't either. I mean, I haven't really experienced it yet - but I know people who did, though, and I guess it's just as weird to them as it is to you." Cordelia scratches her chin, remembers that her hands are full of chemicals - and scratches anyway. "Do you know what they mean?"

She nods. "Went to Magnus to have them translated. They refer to the meek inheriting the earth and a hidden power. Which is the part that's freaking me out - you know, besides them popping up all over my skin in the first place."

Oh good, good. Cordelia was just about to offer Wesley as a translating person.

"Huh," she says. Then, "Why? Are you meek?"
