[ so... yeah. that checks out. ugh, ugh, his heart hurts for karlach, and he reaches out, fingers curling before he sets them on her hand. ]
... I'm sorry that you had to go through that place. [ because man! not fun! ] And I'm glad that we've all returned, at the very least. The hellfiends were fearsome.
Don't apologize to me, Rondo, c'mon. [she says, quietly.] You shouldn't have had to go through our memories like that - get fucked up like this because of them.
... What happened? What did you run into? Just him?
[ nyeh! after all, living the experience is a great provider of empathy. knowing that karlach could have been hurt just as badly doing all of the things they did makes his heart lurch, but he'll drop it after that, gently curling his fingers against hers.
what did they all run into. god. ]
...Well...Miss Hope, at first. She implored that we help her, and find a hammer to free her. We also had to get our own souls back. The latter, Mathis and Lavi handled, while Miss Ashlyn and I went after the hammer. Oh, and, there was a very awful library. I never thought I could dislike libraries!
Yes! There was a library, with a librarian who looked like a centipede. Only, a really large one, and she put a silencing curse on me because I whispered. And then she - well, that's not important.
[ getting eaten is important rondo ]
But that's where we found out where the hammer was. Oh, and I found an axe! So that was helpful.
[ the last bit gets a little bit of a smile. ] If I could have brought it back for you, I would have, but... I think it might have exploded like the knife did.
[ goodbye knife that he did not mean to bring back. ]
I think... the strangest of all was seeing you, and - the others, acting as though they were... listless and lifeless. It was the most jarring seeing you.

Hang on - library? [whuah] I don't remember a library.
