There are bars there and you are only telling me this now? Shame on you, Erik.
grandstanding: (How terribly gauche)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-23 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't think you were that far gone yet. [He also doesn't tend to visit them himself, so it didn't occur to him.]
noprophecies: (019)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-07-23 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
I did not know wanting a drink or two is "that far gone". [or that she gives off the impression she doesn't want to be drunk like 99% of the time, but details]
grandstanding: (Everybody wants to rule the world)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-23 10:03 am (UTC)(link)
You can find that easily enough on the planet for now. I'd recommend that over the ships, unless we're between worlds.
noprophecies: (027)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-07-23 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose. The mead they offer is not bad, even if it is a bit weak.
grandstanding: (The heart of this town has grown cold.)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-24 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
I can't help you there. It's been the same in the few taverns I've visited.

[The inn he stays at is similar. If she's looking for stronger stuff, the Iskaulit bars may in fact be the best options.]

I would also recommend, if you get the chance, visiting the volcano.

I am not that picky. It is no different from the watered down rubbish they sell in the capital.

[have you forgotten that this woman will get drunk off of wine if she decides to be that determined, she will take anything.

She tilts her head, glancing over]


Why is that?
grandstanding: (I can't stand this indecision)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-25 10:19 am (UTC)(link)
[He hasn't forgotten. He's done it with her, on occasion.]

A good view, and hot springs.
noprophecies: (065)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-07-25 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[hot springs do sound appealing . . . maybe she'd luck out and find some that were empty]

I suppose I will check it out, then, when I next wander through the forest.
grandstanding: (Floating Head Villain.)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-28 09:34 am (UTC)(link)
You must be enjoying yourself.
noprophecies: (019)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-07-29 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, well, it has been quite some time since I was able to simply enjoy my surroundings without shite obligations in my way. [can you tell she's grown fond of that word]
grandstanding: (24)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-30 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
Right... you were saying that some things had happened at home.
noprophecies: (012)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-07-30 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, quite a bit. [she wrinkles her nose] Honestly, as annoyed as I am to be kidnapped again . . . it is rather relieving to have a break.
grandstanding: (Sounds like a volvo with a gunrack)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-30 09:33 am (UTC)(link)
[He tips his head to the side, eyeing her.] Now that's a worrying sentiment.
noprophecies: (058)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-07-30 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[she laughs, a short, huffy noise] Isn't it? I've gone mental.

You left before I began remembering details about the "prophecy" - [she even makes air quotes, a clear sign that her team rubbed off on her] - and all the rubbish we were meant to do. They lead us around for months, only for the whole thing to be a lie.
grandstanding: (My premonition of the world.)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-07-31 09:55 am (UTC)(link)
Do prophecies actually exist in your world? --other than this one, if it was fake to begin with.
noprophecies: (018)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-08-01 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Mm . . . it is hard to say if they do or don't. I don't believe in them - certainly not now, considering. But there are many, many people who believe in those things - prophecies, fate, their gods having a particular path for them. [she waves a hand] And there is always a story or two being passed between mercenaries and thieves about treasures being linked to them. The real story behind everything that has been going on is supposedly linked to a prophecy as well, but - [she shrugs] I do not know much about that.

There are people who can see into the future, though. [her nose scrunches up in distaste] My understanding is that they only catch glimpses, but I have worked for men who live their lives based on those visions.
grandstanding: (Go; get your ribbon box)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-08-02 10:22 am (UTC)(link)
Seems a dangerous way to chart your life. [There's a sense of irony there. Hadn't he and Charles also charted their fate based on what a time-traveler had said? That wasn't a glimpse, though. It was someone's lived experience.]
noprophecies: (010)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-08-03 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, it is. [she hums a little] A Seer's services are not cheap, and there are some men foolish enough to flaunt their wealth where they shouldn't. If they're particularly rotten or disliked, well . . . [she shrugs a shoulder]

All one needs is to be able to afford my services. [when she was a mercenary, at least; she wasn't sure what she was nowadays]
grandstanding: (Waffle on the ceiling.)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-08-04 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
What was this prophecy, then?
noprophecies: (011)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-08-04 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
End of the world shite. [she almost wants to leave it there, but . . . she sighs and pushes some hair behind her ear]

We were told that is why were brought back - every one of us had died, and the mage had sought all of us out to revive us. We did not have much detail beyond that, but he mentioned the seer, and - well, she has some legitimacy amongst the people I would work with. My cousin and I only went along with it because we wanted more answers.

[dryly] And I quite literally couldn't kill Maias, so it was not as though I had anything else to do.
grandstanding: (It feels too good without you)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-08-06 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
[It's always the end of the world. He presses his lips together slightly at the mention of revivals, but neither of them are strangers to that anymore.]

And the answers weren't to your liking, I imagine.
noprophecies: (022)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-08-06 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
No, they weren't. [she sighs, feeling her frustration start to boil up and shoves it back down] I found out my father was involved in . . . something, and it is because of that they have now involved me. The "prophecy" they fed us was a very elaborate lie, and the only truth of it all was that they needed us all alive and together.

[she scoffs] It's so dramatic and ridiculous.
grandstanding: (So glad we've almost made it)

[personal profile] grandstanding 2016-08-08 10:17 am (UTC)(link)
Did you teach them a lesson?

[A violent one. Neither of them like to be used, and that would be his first inclination.]
noprophecies: (058)

[personal profile] noprophecies 2016-08-08 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[a grim smile spreads across her face]

My, it's as if you've forgotten what sort of person I really am, Erik. [there's a lilt in her voice despite the subject] That witch sent her men and whatever creatures she's brought to this world to kill us. In return, we killed them when we encountered them a second time, and I happily too the life of one of her guards.

[she rubs at her neck, almost unconsciously] I would've taken hers, too, had she not nearly killed me before I could act again.
