Hmm.

[he's not good at conversations. but he nods.]

Too many. I have a society to repair from the top down.

[verminous]

You really don't do anything small, do you, Scien.

[a whole society?]

[egodist]

[he frowns]

I don't want to. But it's been corroded by shitty leadership while I spent the past few decades working on my research....

So I need to complete my duty and free them all from the curse, and then make sure it doesn't all fall apart immediately after.

After that, I'd like to just go back to my lab...

[verminous]

Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed for that coming to an end quickly enough. Politics always end up dragging on that way...

[egodist]

They do. I hate politics.

So I think I'll just make Dion do it.

[verminous]

-Dion?

[i, teej, saw those tags but gregor? oblivious.]

[egodist]

[helpppp]

I'll probably still force him to take a vacation, but he's insistent on finding ways to help as soon as he makes it to Arpéchéle....

[verminous]

Makes it to-- he's going with you?

Does Dahut know?

[egodist]

Yes and yes.

[though now he’s cluing in that Gregor is Very Surprised and he can’t help but be amused]

Does this come as a shock?

[verminous]

Yes, it does! I thought he'd need to... I didn't think you would...

[egodist]

Feel free to finish your sentences.

[verminous]

How am I supposed to after you went and dropped that on me, Scien!

[egodist]

[he's just openly laughing]

I didn't realize my love life was this grand of a surprise.

[verminous]

I just didn't expect you to have one...

[egodist]

Fair enough, I didn't either.

But in the end, I am a man who isn't the type to sit still when I find something or someone I want.

[verminous]

Apparently not...

[he figured dion was too much of the responsible noble type? damn... dion give him pointers on how not to go hom tbh]

I, ah, guess that worked out pretty well for you.

[egodist]

It did.

[very decisively. scien is absurdly content in his relationship how did this happen there is no justice]

And you? Weren't you in some trial phase with one of the Senior Crew or something? Though I noticed Ragnvindr's been kicked out of your room for the week...

[HELP HELP HELP]

[verminous]

The week!? I only asked him for a night!

[wait. no he didn't mean to admit to that

fuck]

A-anyway, that was just... a misunderstanding, with Artemy, I thought he understood what I was offering when he agreed and I... didn't realize that he didn't.

[egodist]

[he

is

laughing so hard]

Oh no.

[WHY IS HE STILL LAUGHING]

[verminous]

What's so funny!

[THE EMBARRASSMENT HE HAS SUFFERED OVER HAVING TO TELL PEOPLE HE WAS JUST WRONG]

[egodist]

Did he figure it out? Or is your chastity still reluctantly intact?

[don't jUST ASK PEOPLE IF THEY'RE VIRGINS, SCIEN]

[verminous]

Yes, we figured out what was going on over a week ago, it barely lasted a week, why do you think we'd have-- he only thought of me as a friend, why would I have slept with him?

[HE DID NOT FUCK A SENIOR CREWMEMBER WHO REJECTED HIM C'MON]

[egodist]

[wh

what????

what????????????

scien is just tilting his head now lost]

Rewind.

Start from the beginning.

[verminous]

Starting from the beginning is worse.

[egodist]

I'm not saying it to be mean for once, I'm trying to understand what happened to you.
