itp; wetness

[wednesdenial]

[Wow, this sure as heck wasn't the bath you climbed into. Or maybe you were getting ready to step into a shower and ended up in someone else's. Maybe you're suddenly in the wrong onsen!

Yeah this is a bathninja post.]

[...Is suitably impressed! But stops looking rather quickly]

...Apologies. This quite clearly is not my bathroom.

[watchmycannon]

They are as pleased as I am, I'd imagine. Athlum has never had much love for Celapeleis -- likely because they seem to think we are nothing but small-town uneducated buffoons whose only worth is in keeping monsters at bay.

. . . I can see this is something you feel very strongly about.

[watchmycannon]

Yes. As I said-- I watched my father spend his entire life working himself to death through battle after battle, then come home to pander to and placate the other counsel members, hoping to win our freedom by being agreeable.

No wonder they walked all over us.

[smiles, faintly, his eyes a little distant]

Some things can really only be decided by making a stand and fighting it out.

[watchmycannon]

[nods]

As you say.

[...my this is a serious conversation we're having, for the circumstances]

[masterbaited]

[it is, isn't it?]

. . . My apologies. I fear I've kept you longer than necessary in this situation.

[watchmycannon]

--I didn't terribly mind, to be honest. It's... been some time since any asked me of my home.

And who's to say Camp would have let me leave, in any case.

[masterbaited]

[chuckles]

That's a good point.

[watchmycannon]

Still, I suppose I could try, so we don't stand here wetly all day.

[tries to...maneuver for the door]

[masterbaited]

[shifts around to try and give him more room]

It it works, we could perhaps continue this conversation in a dryer place?

[watchmycannon]

[I-Inches past]

I would enjoy that.

[masterbaited]

[it is a really good thing his superior isn't anywhere nearby right now, otherwise there'd be a lot of yelling]

Do you have any preferences as to where?

[watchmycannon]

[It's not like it's intentional!!]

Mm, the mess hall is an easy landmark, but loud... I'm honestly not sure where there is a public space to have a quiet conversation. Most days I am either in the library or my room at the Candy Shack, if either of those sounds more workable...

[hopes the door opens]

[masterbaited]

[I think this is what they call success!]

. . . Candy Shack . . .

[watchmycannon]

[Small miracles!]

It... is the building that looks like a rundown boxcar. I promise it is much nicer inside.
