[ there's the emotions of pleased to hear he's training.... something?? good for you mathis. but up he hops, putting fisteralda back into its sheath, and smiles at him. ]
You probably haven't had much time to explore, right? Let's head over to the Books and Waffles. That's my favorite place so far.
[he's managing to be externally more Fine, even if his emotions remain muted, so. he just nods, trotting after rondo.]
Would you mind telling me... what I've missed, with everyone? N-not the information, I'm catching up on it separately, but... it's been so long since I've seen many of you, and there was so much everyone wasn't allowed to say when we met.
[ books and pancakes and waffles make everything better. at least in his opinion! or at least they help.
oh... rondo considers the question, an animal crossing ? popping up over his head as they start to head that way towards the shops. ]
What you've missed with everyone... What do you mean? Things have been a bit dangerous - we've had quite a few people disappear on trips into the fog even here... but for the most part, we're alright. Life is much easier here, truthfully. Things like that?
Um. Cloud got his bird! It's name is Cloud Jr. the Third, but don't tell him that you know that. [ why is that the first thing you thought of ] And... Karlach's heart is better! And Mr. Astarion - something good happened with him, too, though I'm not totally sure what, but it was definitely really good. He just seems much lighter, somehow.
Miss Kate was a welcome addition to us, as well. It's been really nice to be able to spend time with her, and it makes me happier than anything that she's free of her monster! That's good. What else, what else...
[ ehe. he smiles and shares immediate, happy feelings. ]
She will. [ the happy feelings, and...something relieved that rushes through his emotions. definite, definite relief. ] Thankfully. I'm looking forward to it, though, we'll have to get out of here first, but... I'd like to be able to court her properly.
Mm. She... for her safety, I'm more relieved than anything. Even if she chose not to accept the courtship, I'd be relieved just to know she wasn't in Prehevil any longer.
[ that place sucks so bad. 0/10 ]
Based on the work we've been doing with the rocks and the machine, though, hopefully it ought to be just fine. [ as long as sazantos didn't like destroy orsterra while he was gone but he probably didn't. probably.
it's fine ] It is a hopeful future that I look towards, in these coming days.
When I spoke with Scien about it, h-he said... in mine, people are likely alive who aren't, in others. That even if his sounds better, there will be things about the events that occurred in mine that still mean it isn't worth just ignoring.
I used my wish to fix parts of it, and Scien will be able to fix me, but-- but the Lucas and Scien there won't be the same ones I knew here.
It may be, b-but I don't know how I would feel about... leaving Arpéchéle completely, if I had to in order to do that. That's... still my home, despite what my own circumstances were.
...I think that it's the only other place I would really be considering, though. There are others I would like to see if I can, but I doubt that it would be... that way.
Well, that's on the list, too. There's been quite a bit of talk about finding ways for us to visit each other.
[ so there's that!!! they have been working pretty hard over here. ]
That just means it ought to be something to advocate for. I know I will be, as well - there are a few people here I'd dearly miss, should we not be able to see them. Yourself included.
I- I would miss you too, and... so many of the others, even if I'm not certain they'd let me visit... but it would be nice to have the chance to, um, end up with more time to get to know some of us who I was separated from earlier on.

[he was just absorbing the raw reality of all of that. the horrors of lucas and scien making out. you know.]
Just make sure you rest, all right-?
no subject
And no one made you drink, right? [ WORRYING!!!but if he's feeling ok then he's probably fine... ]
I will, I will. I just finished my training for the morning, so I'm going to try and relax for a little while yet.
no subject
[he's been keeping up on his training in case he needs it...]
Um, then would you like to go find something to eat, or just somewhere to sit and rest?

Wh-what about Marina...? Have things still been going well with her? I know I asked before, b-but...!
[he wants to HEAR ABOUT HIS FRIENDS BEING HAPPY.]
no subject
They have been. I... asked her if she'd come back to Orsterra with me.
no subject
Wh-what did she say...?!
no subject
She will. [ the happy feelings, and...something relieved that rushes through his emotions. definite, definite relief. ] Thankfully. I'm looking forward to it, though, we'll have to get out of here first, but... I'd like to be able to court her properly.

[a little nod, reaching over to patpat his arm.]
I- I'm not certain what I'll be returning to, really, but... I'm happy that she'll be in a better situation.
no subject
... I suppose not. I'm a little - is your situation with Scien and Mr. Lucas like mine is with Alfyn...?
no subject
no subject
Yes - he's from three years in the future compared to myself. He met Cordelia when she was 17, but she's only 14, based on her last birthday.
[ timelines! anyway. rondo frowns at that. ]
I... don't really know exactly how all of this works, to be honest, but... could you return with either of them, considering your situation...?
no subject

[ timelines are very confusing, but... that makes sense. ]
That is hard... I know how precious your memories are to you. [ considering his memshare a few weeks ago. ] What do you think about all of it?
no subject
Monsieur Gale offered to have me as his apprentice, if it's possible, a-and I would like to learn, but I don't know whether that will be an option.
no subject
[ he definitely wouldn't have offered it to marina if it seemed that wasn't the case - it would be too cruel. ]
If it's not too presumptive of me to say so, I think that might be very good for you.
