mental link, day 22
( Got some information for you guys - Annie was good enough to get some of her makeshift spycams going, and we set ‘em up with the leaders of the envoys. Activated them last night. )
[ There’s a curl of gratitude for those who went along with his plan, for those who spun stories or distractions or contributed to convincing the leaders of the envoys that the trinkets of Annie goo were part of a mourning ritual. Is he gonna talk about the fact that he basically disappeared after that until they boarded the airship? Nah. Instead, he jumps right into it. ]
( Didn’t get a lot from the Carpathans or the Meradans, unless you wanna know what the inside of Saridian Black’s room looks like or what other gifts people’ve been giving him, or see more of the Meradans trash talking each other while playing games.
Got the same Second that Annie saw last time, who’s friends with the Seconds I know, and this time he was with Ysiddia Cabrielle. He’s her son, and they were talking with a Second from one of the other Houses about the murders and the Circle having its work cut out for it when we get to the Red Coast.
And the Descendents - pretty sure we got a couple of them talking about the murders. They were wondering if “they” were discovered, who discovered them and what their intentions were - might have something to do with the last time we spied on people through Annie, and she saw the Carpathans that got killed talking about new friends. That, and blood debts and someone named Casiria, and that no one in Black’s retinue could know about it. Didn’t know this until a little bit ago, but guess what information got passed onto Black’s retinue? )
[ His mental “tone” is deliberately neutral there, but the difference from the usual warmth to his mental link is probably pretty telling. ]
( One other thing, about the circle that was found burned in the ground a while back when we were still running around on the ground and the tracks next to it - Rhan said the circle doesn’t look local, but the tracks appear Rabadocean. Hard to pin down more than that so far, except they don’t really match the Hypyrians. )
[ Is he fixating on that a little too much, to be thinking about it still? Maybe, but he's not gonna let it go. ]

no subject
[ And obviously, there are more types, but those were the given categories. ]
( Let's just say I'd rather not have that on top of everything else. If he's smoking around other people, I can't guarantee the safety of his cigarettes. )
[ He honest to god means that. Heaven help Kaji if he smokes in front of November like ever. The last people that did that ended up frozen and in pieces somewhere in Italy. ]
( Truthfully, the symbiote doesn't bother me; if it's going to help my general survivability, I'll keep it. Have we made contact with any of these hunters? )
no subject
[ Hard to come by meaning they were conjured out of dreams by a volatile boy unduly enthralled by her. ]
( Most of us met them before we got here. You didn’t? There was also one night when we were camped out, it felt like it would be them. They were around. )
no subject
[ He'll be however he wants when it comes to smoking. His contract is the only reason he continues the nasty habit. And only when he needs to pay up. ]
( Ah. I suppose I made contact in a physical sense. Pack quite a punch. I didn't get a good look at them, though. Too busy trying not to die.
No real contact here then? )
no subject
[ Our, meaning the nest. Our, meaning her and Kaji. Our, meaning? ]
( If we had made contact, we probably wouldn't be talking right now. )
no subject
( Fair enough. Just covering my bases on what's happened thus far. )
