I don't know.

But I've seen no evidence of belief based alteration here. Maybe for you or me. We're fairytale creatures.

[aigue]

Yes, I don't expect that to work here. But the technology here is so advanced I wouldn't be surprised is there was something to deal with it. Or if the Atroma were keeping the rest of them from aging for maximum entertainment.

[bb_wolf]

Again. No idea.

[Bigby has no problems admitting his ignorance.]

Or, will they find the ageing and tearing apart of your relationship by his inevitable death more tragic and rating winning?

[Bigby, stop helping.]

[aigue]

I'll find some way to keep him from dying of old age before that happens.

[After how successful she was in Between she isn't terrified of failing, at least.]

He's more entertaining as a young man, as much as I hate to admit it.

[tallasaking]

...Well I have been wandering about with a few friends myself. Odd we're all going to the same place but haven't run into one another until now.

[bb_wolf]

Sure.

[It's not sarcastic, just easy agreement. She might. She might not.]

I still think you're crazy getting involved with a human mortal. Why would you hate to admit that?

[aigue]

He... is very excitable when it comes to women.

[There's a very long pause before she adds:]

He's married. And has a mistress.

[bb_wolf]

AND he's your mate?

[He has to remind himself, foxes don't actually do the monogamous thing like alpha wolves do.]

Fair enough.

[aigue]

[They totally do! Sometimes.

Irregularly.]

He was also with a third person in the wasteland. I think I may have actually been number four for him.

[And no, she doesn't sound thrilled about this.]

[bb_wolf]

... right.

[For the incredibly solitary Bigby, it sounds stupid. Why have so many partners at once? Isn't the one you choose worth all your attention?]

And... you still want him as your mate?

[bryces_pup]

Well, I suppose it depends on what you mean by "worst". He certainly was the most unexpected, and I had to play a question game of sorts with him to bargain an acorn out of him.

[She beams and nods, before turning to consider a direction.]

All right. Let's start by going north. It seems a bit less... I don't know. Forest of doom-y that way.

[An odd turn of phrase for her. She's been spending too much time with her crew, it seems...]

[aigue]

I told him no at first, but he's incredibly stubborn. And charming. And romantic.

[She huffs.]

It wasn't a fair fight. And I couldn't really tell him off when his wife and mistress were mostly not in the wasteland, and sex being tied to belief and our survival didn't help matters.

[bb_wolf]

Sounds like someone I know.

[And he fucking hates Charming and Jack too, so Monty's basically doomed.]

I could eat him if you want.

[aigue]

[She starts chuckling. What the hell is this, a wolf being nice enough to offer something like that to her? Ysengrin would be furious.]

Thank you, but I'm hoping he'll behave a bit more now that sex isn't necessary.

[Even though she knows he's been flirting with women on the network already. Cough.]

If you want to go ahead and tease him a little with that threat, though, I won't stop you.

[revengeofthemordsith]

It is a life. I cannot complain.

[ And complaining would scandalize her. Cara takes all comers, all truths like she does with everything in life: with brutal efficiency. ]

[bb_wolf]

[Sure, nice. Offering to eat someone for you is nice. Ish.]

I don't tease with threats I won't follow through with.

[If Bigby threatens something, he will follow through. It's what's kept the community in line for three hundred years.]

[precedented]

We're not on the Space Titanic.

[ He shrugs. ] Call it a feeling.

[axiomed]

That definitely seems like a wiser decision.

[ And one he'll factor in from now one. Kyriakos had plants like that and he had all but forgotten them. ]

Anything noteworthy?

[bryces_pup]

I can most definitely do the killing. [She does a dramatic bow.] You will be safe with me, Lord Tyrion of House Lannister.

[aigue]

There goes that plan. [A dramatic sigh.]

Don't eat him, anyway. I might be complaining a lot but I do still love him.

[save_the_souls]

[ Allen definitely was feeling better. Sure, he had a few new scars, but that wasn't anything new for him. In fact, he was just happy to be back on his feet, walking again. He never did good with bedrest. ]

It's been about two years now. Yourself?

[wolfehawke]

It's sort of a special thing he can do...

[There isn't much that can get Wolfe to blush but that does it a little. A dusting of pink across his cheeks. He hadn't been talking about the electricity trick initially, just how that sort of magic sings in his blood when it happens to match his heartbeat, but now they've gone there and any time he thinks of that damned electricity trick he has to go sit in a bucket of ice.

He shakes his head to clear it, knowing he can't exactly run off and do that now. He's just going to have to try and ignore it.]

Anyway! Crystals. Right. Looking for that. Thing.

[bryces_pup]

Do you know what that blow was, exactly? I've never felt anything quite like it.

[She's had blows and magic that felt like they shot through her and knocked her on her ass, but still nothing quite like they had experienced when they descended onto the planet.]

[avocadoatlaw]

[ Matt identifies the source of the sound easily, the forest is dense but the size of the creature makes it hard to miss. ]

I can hear it. It's still at least half a mile away.

Which way do you want to go? I can keep up.

[bb_wolf]

[Bigby keeps his trap shut. He has opinions on love. Not pleasant ones. Love is stupid. Love gets people killed and makes them lose all perspective.]

Why?
