[ he's not happy about Kaneis's theory, but he doesn't want to assume that much about Cecil yet. he'll contact her at some point and get her side of the story later on.

but for now, any sour feelings he feels over Cecil are ignored when he hears the name of their new captain. he brightens up almost instantly. ]

Flora? She's the new captain, really? [ if he sounds excited, that's probably because he is. he knows Flora! she's nice, he likes her! ]

[He gives a nod]

That's what I said.

[ insta-mood change. ]

That's great! I was hoping I could meet her soon, she was really nice!

Yeah, she is. I'm sure you two will get along fine.

[Since you both got that weird....friendship and optimism shit.]

[ hey hey hey there is nothing wrong with friendship and optimism. ]

So where is she? Do you know if she's already on the ship?

[He shrugs]

I'd assume she is, but I haven't seen her yet. Just heard it on the Shuffle.

[Aka he's too lazy to go look]

She's probably still asleep then...

[ not that he hasn't been in the cabin, but he hasn't seen her on his way to the dining area either, so clearly that's the best assumption.

especially since Kaneis's station is on the other side of the ship. ] I wonder if they brought in some more of that custard for her.

[ #priorities ]

Maybe.... [This priority is now crossing his mind too] They usually give us some custard when a new crewmate joins....

...

[ do you see that look he's giving you, Kaneis

do you ]

[....]

If we move quietly but swiftly, maybe we can get to it before she even knows it's there.

[ way ahead of you: he's already standing, ready to make a beeline for the door. ]

Not like she can hear as good as us anyway.

We don't know that. She's a fairy, who knows what her power is.

[But he'll be setting down his communicator to stand and follow along]

[ they usually have the custard at the bridge, right? he's looking around for any sign of her (none, phew) when wait what. ]

She's a what? [ thankfully he had the sense to drop his voice down to a harsh whisper. ]

A fairy.

[He says it like it's as normal as mentioning that it's Tuesday]

[ you know, he probably shouldn't be as surprised as he is now, considering he met a unicorn, fought the undead, and joined two worlds together.

but. apparently he is. ] I thought fairies were only something you'd see in storybooks.

[ and they're usually tinier. ]

[Dear goddess what Lloyd. He raises an eyebrow, looking utterly amused]

....Seriously? You, Lloyd Irving, guy who can't seem to go anywhere without really weird stuff happening, is questioning the realistic plausibility of fairies existing?

[ HEY HE WASN'T DOING THAT... not exactly, anyway!! ]

Hey, it's not like I knew she was one anyway! I thought they were smaller than her!

[ shows what he knows. ]

[He shrugs]

Apparently not. Or she could just be really big for a fairy.

Or maybe the fairies where she's from are just different, like how there's different magic.

[ he remembers his talk with Krista, when they talked about the differences between their magic in their respective worlds. maybe it's the same for Flora?

he pauses in the hallway for a moment, listening for any movement that's not his or Kaneis's. so far so good... ]

[He groans] Don't remind me. It's such a pain having to explain to every other person how my magic works.

I have no problem with it. [ that's only because you only had to explain it to like one or two people, Lloyd. ] It's pretty interesting to hear how magic works in their world too.

Says the guy who doesn't use magic. [he gives a wave of his hand] That part can be interesting, but try having to explain it every time you need to use magic. Or even better, having to explain it to someone who thinks it's...the devil's taint or whatever.

Believe me, it gets old fast.

[ ... ]

Someone thinks magic is the devil's what?

Taint.

Don't ask me, I don't get it either.

[ AFTER APPARENTLY AN ETERNITY they make it to the bridge. ]

But I don't get it. Magic is a normal thing, so what's so bad about it? [ if this goes back to half-elf discrimination s2g... ]
