what a fresh scent; action (why did i type accent...)

[so.

this prolonged-darkness action. how goes it, Splendor? still braving the outdoors under that weird new sky?

well. perhaps you have estranged company, or maybe it's just coincidence he's there, but Alex absolutely cannot let a situation like this go without inspecting. he's not one for stealth, so spotting him now and then isn't difficult.

[ Was it night? Was it day? It was so hard to tell now. The hours slipped by without so much a change. Edel would light his lantern every now and then, carrying it around with him perhaps as a mean of protection or- well, really, mostly out of curiosity at this point. He was fine with being holed up in his room, but this was...

... eerie, to say the least. Every once in a while, his lantern would flicker and dance, but he refused to conduct magic to it. It was better to go... natural with these sorts of things. You never knew what sort of consequence could happen when a foul wind was around.

And so, he walked quietly- and carefully down the street. The light danced around him as it swayed back and forth, but beyond the beacon laid nothing more than darkness. As far as he extended it, it felt like the darkness was swallowing what little light there was. Even with this lantern, his visibility was only slightly better than worse, you could say. ]

Here it is, yes. [he shrugs, shifting his weight and turning away.] There are other things back home. I do not know how much of anything translates, but it stinks enough as it is.

apathycary July 11 2011, 05:58:50 UTC

[ He laughs breathlessly ]

Does that mean I stink as well? You'll have to forgive me if that's the case.

mongoosegrin July 11 2011, 14:03:24 UTC

[ugh don't bring that shit up, it's not even funny. Alex forces an exaggerated shrug as he turns away. forgive? there's no use in that. stupid thing to ask for, he thinks.]

apathycary July 11 2011, 17:14:29 UTC

[ You know Alexander, sometimes dealing with you ain't easy. Edel won't take this nonsense of turning away from him as he swings the lantern around to face him. Really. ]

Alexander. You- [ Are only going to get in trouble? Only get yourself and innocent people killed? Going to piss someone off he really shouldn't? ] ... You need to exercise caution and-

[ And what? Why does Edel keep reminding himself he is different too? Magic, shmagic. Like hell he wanted it. ]

... Don't let it get to you.

mongoosegrin July 11 2011, 17:21:28 UTC

Be cautious, be calm. [blah on that. Alex's mouth scrunches into a displeased pucker for a second or two, flashing a jaded look Edel's way.] I will get to it first. [splitting a smirk again.] Because now it is different. But this is not your business! And you are too easy to sneak up on. [SO GO HOME, BUDDY. lest shit happens!]

apathycary July 11 2011, 18:08:31 UTC

[ Tsk. Edel is a scholar, not a fighter! He only wishes you well, Darkov! ]

You simply must have it your way, don't you? Regardless of what consequences lie ahead of you, you won't listen to anyone else?

mongoosegrin July 11 2011, 18:12:56 UTC

I listen when it is worth listening. [no he just doesn't listen at all, but the sentiment would be nice if it were true!] I will not let opportunity slip. And, eh...Even if it were not to amount to expectations...[he shrugs, looking cheeky.] You have those silly bandages of yours, yes?

apathycary July 11 2011, 18:17:45 UTC

[ Indignation. Edel just bites his lip and stares at him. How stupid are you, Alexander?! ]

Silly bandages or not, there are some injuries from pride that I- nor anyone, can heal.

mongoosegrin July 11 2011, 18:21:34 UTC

Pride? [haha.] This is not pride. This is nature. [he's told himself that enough times to be convinced, okay!]

apathycary July 11 2011, 18:26:50 UTC

[ He sighs the sighest of sighs. The sigh of kings, this sigh. ]

Has anyone told you that you're a tremendous idiot?

mongoosegrin July 11 2011, 18:32:48 UTC

Yes. [he ain't even mad, tho.]

apathycary July 11 2011, 18:40:47 UTC

[ What.

Just like that.
Okay. ]

... Darkov, you're just full of surprises...

mongoosegrin July 11 2011, 18:49:41 UTC

[teeth flash with his smile. MAYBE HE'S BORN WITH IT.] You are just full of worry, that is all.

apathycary July 11 2011, 19:01:26 UTC

[ NOPE, JUST A DUMB DUMMY DUMB. Edel can only roll his eyes so far, Alexander. ]

I think that's the least of your worries right now.

[ Edel looked away now ] Besides, there's still this going on. Whether it's night or day no longer matters, does it? This is bound to drive someone mad.

mongoosegrin July 11 2011, 19:11:30 UTC

It is? [he stifles a snort.] It has barely been more than a day...
