[she restrains herself. just barely.]

Aw, fangs, I wish you could eat something that isn't all this, the food here's awful. This can't be the first thing you try.

[haematocritical]

Oh goody. I feel so excited for my first attempt at regular food in two hundred years.

[ deadpan. ]

I doubt we'll be stumbling across a high end restaurant any time soon.

[ablazement]

We'll find you something good. Actually - actually, maybe I can ask one of the culties if they've got good food hidden somewhere? They can't be eating this slop.

[haematocritical]

I doubt they'd be willing to share, if they had their own secret stash of food that doesn't suck.

[ he wouldn't. ]

[ablazement]

But I've been nice to them and you haven't, so I might have an in.

[the way she just assumes this]

[haematocritical]

I’ve been perfectly nice to them!

[ no he hasn’t ]

[ablazement]

Really? Really really?

[haematocritical]

There was only minimal yelling. At one of them.

[ablazement]

Well, there you go. [lmao] I don't mind doing the talking.

[she likes talking!!]

[haematocritical]

How many of them are wrapped around your finger already?

[ablazement]

[that makes her laugh.]

Don't say it like that. [god.] I like all four of them. Famine especially, but we all had good chats.

[haematocritical]

Famine.

[ lmao. ]

They're so... [ so maybe famine was the one who got full stressedangry astarion. ]

[ablazement]

[see it's funny because she likes famine so much because they're a jackass like her friends]

They remind me so much of Lae'zel.

[haematocritical]

[ WELL. ]





... You're right.

[ oh my god. ]

[ablazement]

Yeah! See!

Not so bad when you get used to them. Not that I'm supposed to tell you that.

[haematocritical]

[ unsure how he feels about this. ]

Who do the others remind you of then?

[ablazement]

Hmm.

War's a bit like if Gale was way more serious? And less happy to blab. Death reminds me a bit of Jaheria, but none of the humor. Pesto's unique, I don't think they're like any of our ragtag team. Too easily impressed.

[haematocritical]

[ thinking about it. ]

I don't mind War. They seem quite serious, but not difficult to talk to. I suppose the easiest thing would be to ask Gale if he likes them and then we'd know for sure.

[ hmmm. ]

Pestilence tried to make a joke, but I'm not sure it was a particularly good one.

[ablazement]

Oh, he likes War, they're both wizards. It's like two ferocious bunnies circling each other. Adorable, really.

[lmao]

What was the joke?

[haematocritical]

[ oh god. ]

There's two of them.

[ help him. ]

Something about there being 25 monster pairings, and then saying there was only 20 and then they got all grumpy I didn't get the joke. Because apparently there was one.

[ablazement]

[squints...]

I guess I'm missing the joke too, because that doesn't sound funny?

[haematocritical]

Exactly!

But they didn't seem happy that I didn't get it? [ he's just ???? ]

[ablazement]

[help]

Well, Pesto's a weirdo as it is. Maybe I'll ask 'em about it next time I see them.

Good to know all of us have got a pairing, though, I guess.

[haematocritical]

If they give an explanation, I'd be interested in hearing it. [ DON'T EXPLAIN THE JOKE. ]

... Do you still plan on keeping to yourself?

[ablazement]

Yeah.

[absolutely no hesitation there.]

I'm not linking my fate with someone else, fangs. That's a death sentence for them.
