[he can look at it in a second, because she's going to come right up to him and take his face in her hands and tilt it back and forth like a mother hen. binch.]
... Did you run to the room? [huff.] You should go inside and sit down.
[there's this like, vaguely upset look on her face at this!
she gently wipes the blood from the corner of his mouth with her sleeve.]
I am typically very capable. [she tells him, sternly, but - not unkind.] You don't need to hurt yourself to come to me. Please take care of yourself. I don't want you to...
[well. she doesn't finish that sentence, but after luke, it's probably pretty obvious.]
Indulge me. [go inside and rest with her or she'll be very cross] And I'll let you see the information I found.
[NOT THE UPSET LOOK. He quickly reaches up to try wiping at his own face when she does, like he's surprised there is something THERE TO WIPE AT ALL!!!]
I didn't mean to imply...
[Nevermind, he immediately crumples away from an altruistic argument.]
You found something...?
[He is already turning around to go into the room before she kicks his entire flat ass.]
[please don't die on her like luke did she'll just collapse, ok
in he goes to the room, and she follows him! i'm sorry to report that their room is probably full of clothes. she might have taken up some of his closet space with how much she brought back. but she's not paying attention to that right now.
when he sits, she will hand him the datapad, like the way you hand a toddler their snack after they behave.]
It isn't anything incriminating, necessarily. It's just interesting. [...] Charles and I fought a small wizard for it.
Also sorry to say, among the hoard of clothes there is a big store-bought bouquet of lilies sitting on a clear space of Viktor's desk. The whole room smells like fucking flowers, hope she isn't allergic. Thinking about how fragile Viktor is, he probably would be, I hate that.
He will... sit between any pile of clothes on the bed. He takes his toddler snack to look it over. His brows immediately furrow.]
It's-- [LOOKS UP] I... beg your pardon? A... small... wizard?
[okay i know they're love cursed but throné gets absolutely doe-eyed at the flowers. sidon listened to her!! cute!!! ROMANCE.
she'll come over to sit next to him.]
A small wizard. [holds her hands up to indicate that he was like watermelon sized.] ... Charles yelled ooooo at him until he stopped trying to hit us with the mechanical arm.
[nothing it was just the fact he's bald that makes me laugh]
Oh! A crane!
[WOW, HE IS GOOD FOR SOMETHING. HE KNOWS WHAT THAT IS!!]
Mm... [He reads this over a few times.] Not... particularly? Who is "Dimi"? Addy is Adrastea. It sounds like the first log, unfortunately. Is this... the upper crew then?
Like... the bird? [no not like the bird] It didn't seem strange to me either, just curious.
I'm not sure who Dimi is, but you're right, Addy must be Adrastea... [a beat.] The writing style doesn't sound like any of the current crew. Perhaps it is - or it's the crew that trained the eight current senior crew.
[DOES LEAGUE EVEN HAVE CRANES? IDK NOW THEY DO. I'm godmodding League lore. There are crane birds now.]
It's someone young, at least. Someone who thought they'd have to sneak into the bar. But they were asked to write a training program for... some of this team, I assume? "Chief Abby" was already here; Metis was apparently shadowing them.
... I don't know. If I remember correctly someone mentioned they learned fast, but nobody ever mentioned what happened to them after. [did the npcs eat the other crew] I intend to ask some of them about it.

He glances up at her, looking visibly relieved, and also kind of tired. SHE'S OKAY!!! His eyes drop to the datapad.

He has the exact expression of a bewildered kid having their face held. There's a little bit of blood at the corner of his mouth.]
I, um, had the hurry in case... you were in trouble. I'm alright.

He......... looks at her hands and makes the strangest sort of expression. A LITERAL SMALL WIZARD?]
Ah... I see. I did hear him... uh, oooing in the background. [A pause.] He had a mechanical arm?
[Looking over this datapad again. I'm still spiraling over the bald man this is so funny.]
no subject
[it was a crane. she just doesn't know what that is. why are you spiraling over the bald man what meaning does he have]
Does any of that seem strange to you? Not... the wizard. [that was fucking weird] The log.

no subject
They could have... shifted departments, I guess.
[Thinking on the bright side? It sounds so lackluster really. Because of... everything.]
Ask and see if they avoid the questions, or what they say.
no subject
We're already here under strange circumstances. I wonder if this is easily explainable, or...
Hmm. Well, I'll let you know.
no subject
Someone said they heard the crew say what happened with Luke, and Dahut and Scien was something that had never really happened before.
If that's true, then perhaps these others simply left, or changed ships.
no subject
[don't be dead so i can tell you what i found out later]
... Viktor - this Thursday. I'd like you to stay close by. Just in case.
no subject
His expression softens a bit. He looks both touched, but also sort of amused.]
Alright. I mean, I definitely won't be in the bathroom again, at least.
