[Jaunt Week 1] Check-In Time...

[helborn]

Casper here. Check in if you're yourself, now.

[His tone is uncharacteristically clipped and short.]

Bismuth here. Not quite sure what I am - some kinda fat white cow. Just look for the tallest person hanging around, that'll probably be me.

[helborn]

If I see you I can probably let you know. Just look for the dog thing missing half a leg.

[letsgetdowntobismuth]

...I'm sorry, how are you missing a limb already?!

[helborn]

Because I'm naturally missing one leg and I guess this place decided that it would be fun to have me wake up with a bloody stump again, I don't fucking know!

[It's rare that he sounds genuinely angry on the network, but right now he does.]

[letsgetdowntobismuth]

Hey, easy tiger. I didn't know, alright?

[She's certainly not trying for sympathetic, in her tone. Patient, yes, and not unkind, but not pitying.]

Least they only took off with one of them, right? They could've made it matching pairs.

[helborn]

... I know. Sorry. I'm not... mad at you specifically.

I... gods, I don't even want to think about that. I wouldn't be able to move at all.

[Let's not go there, thanks.]

[letsgetdowntobismuth]

Well if you ever wanna get a limb enhancer on that, I can pop into Liminal Space and bang something together.

[helborn]

I've got a spare limb but it got shoved into Hammerspace with the rest of my stuff. It doesn't fit with how my legs are now, though.

[letsgetdowntobismuth]

Yeah, I can only imagine. [sorry that she sounds amused there] Offer still stands, though. Might not be pretty but you'll be able to put a good bit of pressure on it.

[helborn]

I'll think about it? We might need to disguise it somehow as less impressive than it is, based on the tech level here.

[letsgetdowntobismuth]

Bronze and copper, if their forge is any indication of their time. Nothing fancy, but definitely serviceable.

But I can still probably sneak some magic into it, give it a bit of an extra kick people won't see coming. [she loves the demesne she picked up]

[helborn]

Maybe. I'll have to experiment a little and figure out how to pull my stuff out of hammerspace without people seeing in case I need it...
