[Smuggling Mingle]
Who: Planned: Tim & Cass, Tim & Stephanie Amell, Tim & Hiro & Ino I think. Not Planned But Still Welcome: Tim and YOU!
Broadcast: Fleetwide Text.
Action: On the moons, or a shuttle in between them!
When: 2/17-2/20!
I'm making some book-buying expeditions to the moons for the next few days - let me know if you have any requests and I'll see if I can find something that fits. For that matter, let me know if you need a ride - we can carpool in one shuttle.
[It's true, but it's also a CYA pretext - if he's going to afford a decent library, Tim thinks, he needs income. Exporting books from all three moons gives him good cover - small items can be hidden in the spines, in the book jackets, in the pages, and might avoid customs, since he isn't planning to take the books themselves off-ship. For that matter, he has a lot of experience layering clothes in subtle ways, and the market value of red silk lingerie and underclothes on Abeo is unreal...
And unbeknownst to Tim, around the time he first starts spending his days cooped up alone in the shuttle, his augment is malfunctioning, upping his pheromones. Mostly, lightly, just enough for a raised heartbeat and a flushed cheek, but it still might make his trips... more interesting than he wants them to be.]

[he pauses, still keeping his breathing slow and even.]
And I know what you mean.

[ How to describe the Circle? ]
Anyone found with magical ability is brought to a Circle, usually when they're children. I was six or so when I was left there, and that's where I grew up.

[He's surprised, but not dubious. All right, if they're being monitored, this is an interesting conversation topic.]
We don't have anything so organized back home. Nothing institutional.

[ It's nice to know he is accepting of magic being real. There's so little sign of it here (aside from their presence) that she was pretty sure some people would scoff at the idea ]
The Chantry requires that all mages be kept under guard. Our magic comes from our connection to the Fade, it's... where spirits live, where mortals visit in their dreams. Mages are susceptible to being seduced by demons in the Fade, allowing them to possess them.
It's... a possessed mage is very dangerous. Demons do not care who they hurt as long as they get what they want.

At any rate, I felt sometimes like I had a very large number of siblings, growing up.

[His voice goes from fond at the first two, uncertain at Jason, to edged as he mentions Damien.]

[ She means that TOTALLY non-sexually, for the record. Not a single thought about her being pretty, or how well fit her body was in that skin-tight suit. Nope. None. ]

[Lovely isn't a word he would have considered using, although now that he thinks about it, he can;t argue with it in any sense.]

...Although Varric says he knew a woman who is apparently a cousin of mine that I was not aware I had. I'm not entirely sure what I think about the whole situation, but it's... exciting, to know I have family, if ever I get back.

[ Wait, that's intrusive. ]
Sorry, you don't have to answer that, I'm not trying to pry.
