J. Magi she/her Posted August 29 Report Share Posted August 29 3 minutes ago, Spark of Hope said: Robert looked up from a notebook upon hearing his footsteps. "There's a guy here, says he needs to talk to you." 7 minutes ago, Through The Living Glass said: Niamh looked- wait, was that the awkward, cloaked man from the night before? Niamh laughed briefly. She looked back to the other woman. "Why are you invested in helping Jolane? If anything is happening at all." Niamh certainly had her suspicions, but no solid proof of anything. Quote I love her wise and collected but also ready to throw hands at any given moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through The Living Glass She/Her Posted August 29 Report Share Posted August 29 (edited) 5 minutes ago, The Bookwyrm said: Ma'tani fell silent for a moment. "Got to pay the Spirits back somehow, right?" She said softly. "They gave me him. Maybe they gave Jolane me." She smiled and shook her head. "Nevermind. That's none of your concern. I'm just someone who likes getting in other people's business, and helping people who never asked for my help. I'm endearing like that." Niamh was slightly confused about the first part, but nodded. "If you do find something, or you need help, come tell me, yeah? "I'd certainly like to help put a stop to it." 3 minutes ago, J. Magi said: Quote Niamh or Ma'tani?

He casually leaned against it, totally not eavesdropping. "You should really stop coming here. You're only making it worse for the both of you." There was a pause. "I have to try... and even if I fail, I still get to see her." Robert sighed and put a hand on his forehead. "If you were able to beat me, you would have by now." "I have to try," the man repeated. "It was only going to be twenty years at the start. You know that." "... yes." "Your doing this has gotten it to be over five hundred." "Which makes me that much more desperate." Once again, Robert sighed. He seemed to do that a lot with this man. "Your dedication is honorable. Really. But if you hadn't done this, she'd only be here for another two years." "Please, just let her..." "If I could, I would. But you owe me a debt you can't pay me any other way, and every time you come here it gets larger. It has to be either you or her, and we both know it can't be you. Your wife has to stay at home, and I can't take your wife from you." "Please-" "No." A longer silence. The next thing the man said was shaky and quiet. "But she's my daughter." "I'm well aware. But you could pay no other way." "Then let me-" "No. We're not doing that again. You'll lose and make it worse for the both of you." "Please-" "Go home." Pause. "Go home." The man got out of his chair and began walking towards the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
