Hello...

I apologize for the inconvenience and you may disregard me as some dust left on an abandoned floor, but if it is not too much trouble I have a few questions.

I heard ...howls in the night, and saw the eyes of ...of something I dare not speak of in the inn windows last night.


What can we do about fortifications to the town- are there...have there been attacks in the past? I have not seen a cemetery here yet, but if the grounds have been disturbed we could invite something sinister. I am very new here, so I would like to know what I should do. To weather another attack by demons, I do not think my heart can take it.

[Suri was 100% fucking with him and probably only he heard and saw these things. Welcome to the Grove, indeed.]

( after a moment there is a doodle of a cat gently patting a crying clover. there, there... )

that was probably exactly that then :(

[timidheart]

what about the person responding below is that the forest as well

[amethystic]

... no that's just joshua.

[timidheart]

I see I have opened myself up to town ridicule. I wonder if I am better off returning to the shadows.

[amethystic]

it's more dangerous alone than in a group
joshua's not that bad, hes just also very irreverent and capricious. he likes to tease and no one's immune.

[timidheart]

...yes, this is true. Perhaps I will simply remain on the fringes, as to not trouble anyone else. I am a worthless creature, after all.

I see. Sadly I am very familiar with the sort. I understand now, thank you.

[amethystic]

dude you are so concerning is everything okay? have people been bullying you???

[timidheart]

No, this is simply my existence. It always has been. A phantom who watches from the shadows. Do not mind me.

[amethystic]

ok where are you i think you need a blanket and a cup of tea

[timidheart]

What? Nnnnno no that isn't necessary i would hate for someone to worry over something like me please im very sorry

[amethystic]

too late!!!

[timidheart]

hiieeeee!!

i am...at the inn...

[amethystic]

noted! be there in a second.

[timidheart]

[Ah...how did this happen. Well. It would be incredibly rude to keep this person waiting so he will wait to receive them in the lobby.]

[By which he is going to be waiting for fel to arrive from one of the rafters.]

U-Um...

[amethystic]

( she's a small thing, and her sheer wrap shows her lack of one arm all too well- she's still not sure how she feels about that. but despite her almost delicate appearance, there's a certain... hm. fierceness? except kinder? to her.

she's weird. she's also looking around up until the 'um', which makes her look up. )

... Oh, you're a squirrelly one, huh?

[timidheart]

["Squirrelly? He's never been called that before. He's unsure if it's an insult or a compliment. Probably an insult.]

I am wretched around people I do not know, s-so I hope you will forgive me.

[He considers staying up there, but...nn. He will slowly start to work his way down.]

[amethystic]

( wow! she would never????





okay no, no, she would.

unaware of what horribly untrue but also totally true things he's thinking about her, felicity waves for him to come down.

once he's at a level she deems good enough, she'll wave him to the kitchen. )

I used to take over the kitchen regularly, so I know where the good leaves are. And don't worry about it- I promise you, I've dealt with way worse.

[timidheart]

[Okay, well. He knows fussing when he sees it. He will not deny her, so instead he will politely follow her into the kitchen. He will fold his hands in front of himself just so.]

You ...are very kind. Thank you.
