[retellers]

Comments

[laid]

[So earnest... Reminds him of Flynn a bit.]

You and the rest of your masked friends, I assume. Trying to take on burdens by yerself isn't good for your health, y'know.

[retellers]

[ a little confused, ]

I cannot speak for the others... but isn't it our duty? There is no position that comes without burden. [ a pause. ] Also, I don't think I can get sick like a normal human, so that is not a concern.

[laid]

[Hm, well that's a little point to pick at.]

like a "normal human"? What does that make you lot?

[retellers]

I believe the others are human, unless they say otherwise, but I don't know what I am.

[laid]

Ya seem human enough to me... Maybe you are and you just forgot?

[Testing to see how much is up for grabs when it comes to memory loss.]

[retellers]

No... though I don't remember most things about myself, I remember, at least, that I am not.

[ also what humans do you know who have fangs, raven ]

[laid]

[Listen he's trying to be careful of other people's races after Lup accused him of being elf racist.]

Hmm... What things do ya remember, then?

[retellers]

[ they shake their head. ]

Mostly just that.

[laid]

Sounds rough. There's some memories I wouldn't mind givin' up, but ta lose all of them is pretty miserable.

[retellers]

... Has your life been a painful one?

[laid]

[That's a hell of a question.]

Hm. Well, I wouldn't say it's been all bad, but I don't think it'd be unfair ta say I've had more low points than most.

[retellers]

... I'm sorry to hear that. I hope, at least, that the bright points have balanced it out even a little.

[laid]

[Thinks a long moment.]

I guess if I got the choice between having everything good and bad or losing it all... I'd wanna keep 'em. No offense.
[Given Goat's living the latter.]

[retellers]

[ they shake their head. ]

None taken. All of your memories make up who you are, and we can't have joy without pain. They're not something to be taken lightly.

[laid]

[Hmm....]

Well, in that case, guess we gotta make some new ones fer you, until you can get your old ones back.
[If we're saying memories are that important!!! Goat's nice and deserves that much.]

[retellers]

[ surprised, ]

You would do that for me?

[laid]

Well sure! We're on a team together, ain't we? Seems ta me like we aughta support each other.

[Pats Goat on the shoulder!]

[retellers]

[ they take the pat! and they nod. ]

If there's anything you need as well, I will do my best.

[laid]

You don't suppose we could get a bar in this place? Or maybe just a wine cellar?

[He has no idea what level of sinister magics the leaders have so he may as well shoot for the moon.]

[retellers]

[ they pause, as if they're thinking. ]

It's alcohol you desire?

[laid]

I mean, I guess, but when ya say it like that I sound like a lush.

[retellers]

I am not familiar with what a "lush" is... but I can produce some alcohol for you, if that's what you want. Though I am not very familiar with modern drinks...

[laid]

Red wine too modern for ya? That's what old Raven prefers.

[retellers]

[ they shake their head. ]

I have knowledge of wine.

[ after a moment, they pull out... a bottle of red wine! and hold it out for raven. here you go. ]

[laid]

[Nice!!! Free booze! But then he pauses.]

... You want some?
[New memories, and all... Drinking in the middle of the day can be a new memory.]
