No.

[bindings]

Then it must have been Vash.

I need at least three good reasons as to why I should not bury him under our warehouse.

[ashmark]

We'll drop in the rankings
We could be at a disadvantage by losing a team member
We'll lose a psych from it
Bad for morale
Wolfwood will get to him first?

[bindings]

[fair enough]

Hmph. [she did type this.] Where are you? I didn't see where you went earlier.

[ashmark]

I don't deal with dead bodies well.

[ that isn't an answer but ok ]

[bindings]

Well, I am not a dead body.

I am no longer in love with Wolfwood. I'm sorry if that upset you.

1/2

[ashmark]

I am far from the dead bodies and dead body parts.

It wasn't your fault.

[ashmark]

Do you like milkshakes?

[bindings]

I do. I'd like to have one with you.

[ashmark]

I'm already here.

Come find me.

[bindings]

[she will come to find her!! she doesn't smell like meat. she took a shower. this is important to note.]

[ashmark]

[ see? this is why they need a hammam. scrub the horror stink off right (they aren't getting a hammam).

anyway nahri is here at top pate. hi. she is actually waiting outside so she doesn't seem like she's hiding. she gives shenhe a little wave. ]

[bindings]

[she's so valid i think they should get a hammam

she is smiling a little easier these days - like she's been practicing. it's very small, but she's doing her best.]

Hello. [she says, with a touch of warmth to her voice, as she approaches.]

[ashmark]

[ nahri latches onto her immediately. hug!!!! ]

Are you okay?

[bindings]

[hug!!! she's getting used to this, so she doesn't jump - she just wraps her arms around her, pleased.]

Of course. Should I not be? [the mini-event was kind of fun honestly she likes fighting monsters and babysitting

she was babysitting the grown-ass men, to be clear. not ylfa.]

[ashmark]

No, no, I just... I wasn't sure what happened after the whole body part chest-rat-man-fight or whatever was going on.

[ she knows shenhe is capable (and ylfa, to be clear) but she was still worried. alas, her actual canon fear of corpses. ]

[bindings]

Oh. I left the treasure chest, and went to help Ylfa fight a man in the walls. And then I carried Fei Du home, Kaveh told me that I was cursed, and I argued with him for a while. I reminded Vash that I care about him.

And then it wore off.

[ashmark]

Is this a new curse? [ sorry now she's like TUNED IN to this whole curse thing. curse-sensitive. ]

--And I can expect Vash to still be in one piece when we go back to the warehouse later?

[bindings]

What? [help] Is what a curse?

... And Vash is fine, for now. [nyeh]

[ashmark]

Whatever Kaveh said. [ maybe something EVEN WACKIER than heterosexuality happened.

anyway. they need to go get a miwkshake. ]

...Thank you for sparing Vash.

[bindings]

Oh. No, he told me that I was cursed to be in love with Wolfwood. [gazes.] I didn't believe him, so I suppose I'll need to... tell him he was right.

[gross. anyway, she'll go with her to get milkshake!! she likes literally all of them so.]

Vash is temporarily spared until he hates himself less.

[ashmark]

[ nahri likes chocolate :) it is fun and novel (all of them are but look) ]

Hm, I don't know, you might end up permanently sparing him then.

[bindings]

[she looks huffy at this.]

Idiot. [this is affectionate, though.] I don't understand what there is to hate.

[ashmark]

I think he doesn't know how to reconcile his past and doesn't know how else to express it.

[ how can she say this so casually while ordering a milkshake ]

[bindings]

[help existential conversations over dairy treats]

... I don't know much about his past. [she wishes she did, though. the boys are very good at dodging her.]
