Oh. Yes. I guess it's two years ago now, I was abducted by a powerful, insane mage. He held me and my friends for a free months. I don't remember most of the experience.

There have been other, smaller incidents, but that was the longest before I was brought to the fleet.

[She's very matter-of-fact about it. Almost as if she's numb to the experience, or she's purposefully not feeling when she explains it to him.]

You... [He's just absolutely shocked by the thought.] You were kidnapped? And you don't remember a lot of it?

[He pauses, frowning.] Smaller like what?

Fast little abductions, usually slavers, or creatures looking for a snack. Or both. The um, one I don't remember... something was done to my mind. When I try to recall, it... hurts.

[An understatement, to be sure. But he seems already overly vexed by knowing just the peripherals. She doesn't want him to worry over her by telling him the details.]

whoops I lost this notif

[dontthinkaboutelephants]

It-

[The problem with talking about it, is that she's thinking about it. Thinking about it brings that knife-edged pain back, just as she'd said. Stabbing just behind her left eye. She lifts a hand and squeezes on the bridge of her nose, as if to push back against the pain.]

We should talk about something else.
