If you have managed to find your way here, then you must have exhausted all other methods of contact by now. My sincerest apologies, but I am a very busy man these days

...if I say yes. To your suggestion... would you promise me something?

[swordofthenorth]

Of course, but I would first need to know the nature of the promise I am making.

[yetsleeping]

If I lose control and you can't draw me back... you have to stop me.

Before you can't stop me.

Do it through any means necessary.

[swordofthenorth]

I won't allow anything to happen that you don't want to happen, you have my word.

[yetsleeping]

That wasn't a real answer!

[swordofthenorth]

[He sighs.]

Sometimes...I think you take pleasure in making things difficult for me.

[But he asked for it this time.]

Very well. I promise. Through any means necessary.

Satisfied?

[yetsleeping]

I don't. But you're slippery, sometimes.

And yes, I'm satisfied. ...I think.

But now you owe me an answer!

[swordofthenorth]

If I am to be completely honest with you, Priscilla...I'm not sure what I want. It's complicated.

[yetsleeping]

Isn't everything?

I mean... I know what you mean. I do. Err, in theory, not in specifics. Because I know my complicated specifics but not yours.

[swordofthenorth]

But you do know them. You, better than anyone else, understand.

[yetsleeping]

Then tell me.

Well, I think I know. But tell me anyway.

[swordofthenorth]

It was clear to me once, but not anymore. Like so much is unclear to you. The line between is blurred, and sometimes that fog clouds your vision completely.

[yetsleeping]

Always so slippery. That's not really an answer either.

[swordofthenorth]

I want to know what comes next.

[yetsleeping]

What? Everyone wants to know what comes next.

[swordofthenorth]

Do we really have the time for this right now?
