[decked]

Way weird.

[isaac shakes his head. the whole thing is making him on-edge and uncomfortable and he's not entirely sure how he's going to continue handling it the way he is. he's happy that scott is around, at least - but he's also alarmed by it.]

You never asked Deaton about things like that?

[deathdiduspart]

Terrifying, right?

[So deadpan.]

I think so. I wouldn't be surprised if that's where it came from. Their faith in those days was dead set on making pagans the enemy, and to either convert them or kill them if they refused, after all.

[oursavinggrace]

Wonder how they'd feel if they knew that "pagans" are the major power in the west these days.

[probably not very pleased, so maybe they shouldn't actually mention that. starting a mythos war really wouldn't be helpful right now. the greeks and romans could barely handle that, and they were practically the same thing in comparison to all this.]

[deathdiduspart]

I doubt they'd believe you. Or they'd think you're insane.

[Nico says that last part like he's pretty much in agreement.]

[oursavinggrace]

[he will just go ahead and ignore that because come on he's having an actual conversation with nico di angelo, that is a feat in itself and not something to be risked lightly.]

I guess that's probably for the best. Last thing we want is for any of this to follow us home when it's all over.

[ready_to_bloom]

[Caspian's pleased at the warmth in Peter's smile. He considers the High King a friend now, and is just terribly glad to see him, and not have to be quite so alone in this strange new place.]

It's a strange kind of magic indeed. And it's heavy in the air, all around. I've sampled a portion of the food, and it seems safe so far, but... [He shrugs, as if to say one never knows.]

We should best keep our eyes open for any we might know. [Speaking of eyes open, he glances over Peter.] How curious that you have your sword back, when you left it with me, so recently. The magic here must have done that.

[deathdiduspart]

[He makes a noise of ascent at that. Nico hesitates and then rolls his eyes a little.]

I'm still staying for a few days to do research on the spirits here. And I guess I can stay in contact while we're here.

[This kid is not happy about this, but sacrifices need to be made if they want to get out of here alive and in one piece.]

I know! They will have to bond again!

[ready_to_bloom]

[Caspian's sampling a few things, but tentatively - he's a little worried about all the magic here, that seems to hang so heavy in the air. What if the food is enchanted too? But so far, there seem to be no ill-effects.

And this dwarf looks perfectly fine.]

No, it appears to be endless. What have you been up to, going so long with without a meal?

I'm Caspian, by the way. [He'll leave off the king part, for now.]

[oursavinggrace]

[you make it sound like the end of the world but hey jason is a puppy and will happily take what he can get.]

Thanks.

So sorry for such a late reply! My life exploded with crazy

[ready_to_bloom]

I don't doubt that you can. [He's seen her shoot; he knows how good she is.]

Are your siblings here with you?

[deathdiduspart]

[Ugh.]

I'm going to go ahead and get a head start on it. It's...getting a bit crowded.

[Nico frowns at everyone else and then steps into the shadows to follow through on his statement. Hell yes he is absconding this social gathering and the conversation with Jason.]

So sorry for such a late reply! My life exploded with crazy

[ready_to_bloom]

[Caspian catches her in a hug, kind of amazed at how much older she looks]

It's wonderful to see you again, Lucy! Have you seen anyone else yet? I've seen Susan and Peter.

[oursavinggrace]

[wow rude.]

[deathdiduspart]

[He does not care.]

it's all good

[marksqueen]

Yes, we're all together. It would be strange coming to a new world without them.

it'll be fun!

[inafadingcrown]

You hardly need apologize to me. [She's more amused than anything else, if her expression is anything to go by.]

By all means, continue, if it has been so long. It seems likely you will need your strength in the days to come.

[thearseman]

[See. Now she's getting it. He nods decisively at where Rudy Too is slumped, watching them both sulkily.]

Him? Yeah. Him I hate.

[rekhyt]

Yeah? Seems to be a fair amount of that around here too. Personally, I have a home I'd be perfectly content to return to, but I doubt I'd be allowed to stay in it even then.

[inafadingcrown]

[She frowns a little] That concerns me as well. Tell me, how were your grandparents when you saw them last?

[inafadingcrown]

I fully intend to speak to the Lord and Lady of these halls, I promise you that. [Not that it's likely to do her a lot of good.]

[silvergift]

My grandparents?

[There's confusion, a lot of it, in her voice, in her expression.] I have never met them.

[aphrodisiacs]

[ alisha tries hard not to laugh, instead, she schools her features into something of a blank canvas. her brows crease together, though, and her tone morphs into a you're dumb. ] Isn't he you?

[wolfskin]

[ his fists relax in her hands, uncurling without resistance. she bends down to kiss them and part of him thinks it to be wrong, a sweet gesture certainly but one of lower station. he swore to keep her secret, to protect her even if it means to lie, but still he struggles with the reality of that choice. that he must treat her like a stone and not a stark, at least in front of prying eyes.

robb smiles back at her, fingers brushing against her skin.

she is returned to him, his loving sister, and for that he is happy and guilty at the same time. he should have saved her sooner, he should have saved her and arya both. he still means to. ]

Will you walk with me? [ the feast suddenly feels more unsafe than before and robb desires to embrace his sister again, to hold her close for the first time in so long. ]

[breadmaking]

Tell me about it.

[He nods, sympathetic. He knows this exact feeling, the same thing has been bothering him.]

You'd think the one thing they could do is give us a proper explanation in return for everything they seem to want from us. I wouldn't mind a chance to say something to everyone back home, either. [Or maybe to have some of them here, too. He might not mind so much if he at least had Toothless...] They expect a lot from us, but they're kind of... Not giving much back.

[Though, the food is a perk?]

so sad!

[kilimanjaro]

[Kili shrugs, gnawing on a piece of bread.]

We've been travelling. Started running out of food.

[He glances up to give him a small smile.] Kili, at your service.
