Kiran and Reveno technically form a suicide pact

06[00:05] * Artisan_Kiran finishes setting up his own things before approaching, being slightly unwilling to interrupt him -- but eventually makes his way over.
01[00:05] <Artisan_Kiran> 5Thankfully *this* Faceless can't see the future! So there's no way this could be as uncomfortable as Libra's chat, ha. ha. ha.
[00:06] <@SwaDM> Or CAN HE?
01[00:06] <Artisan_Kiran> 5pls no
01[00:06] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Hey. You have a spare minute?"
[00:06] <@SwaDM> "Hm?"
[00:07] <@SwaDM> "Oh, 'sup? A bunch."
01[00:07] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Excellent."
04[00:07] <@SwaDM> He turns around, giving Kiran a bit of a grin.
06[00:07] * Artisan_Kiran identifies the nearest appropriate flat surface from which he can continue the conversation and sits, chuckling quietly at Reveno's attitude.
[00:08] <@SwaDM> He leans against one of the wooden poles of the tents.
01[00:08] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"So, uh. I spoke to Libra before we headed out to find you."
[00:08] <@SwaDM> "Ohhhh."
[00:08] <@SwaDM> "Got some gossip going, eh? Or was she mostly just reprimanding you?"
01[00:09] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Reprimanding me? No, no, we just talked. It was nice. We sparred a bit, and talked about the future and stuff."
[00:09] <@SwaDM> "Hmm. I getcha."
[00:09] <@SwaDM> "Yeah, we do that sometimes."
01[00:09] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"But yeah. She's worried about you."
[00:09] <@SwaDM> He coughs a little, and then clears his throat.
06[00:10] * Artisan_Kiran looks out to the distance.
[00:10] <@SwaDM> "You're kiddin' me."
[00:10] <@SwaDM> "She told that to you?"
01[00:10] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"She said she thinks you might do something stupid."
[00:10] <@SwaDM> "Like what?"
[00:10] <@SwaDM> "Plus, that's my job!"
01[00:10] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"The Voidspawn that keeps coming back is somewhere to the south."
[00:10] <@SwaDM> His grin drops only a little bit.
01[00:10] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"She saw it in her auguries. She was concerned you, or all of us, would run into it."
[00:10] <@SwaDM> "Ah? The mimic, yeah?"
[00:11] <@SwaDM> "Yes...well. Trust me. If I see that, I won't run after it alone. That's too stupid, even for me."
01[00:11] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"I don't know that much about it. I assume it's the same one."
06[00:11] * Artisan_Kiran nods to himself.
[00:11] <@SwaDM> "It's always the same one, we figured."
01[00:12] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Huh."
01[00:12] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Yeah. She said it was very dangerous."
06[00:12] * Artisan_Kiran frowns.
01[00:12] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"And I told her I'd do my best to make sure you don't get yourself killed. So."
[00:13] <@SwaDM> "...That's awfully sentimental of you."
01[00:13] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"If you're going to do something stupid, tell me. And I'll come do something stupid with you."
[00:13] <@SwaDM> He smirks.
01[00:13] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"We can watch each-other's backs or something."
[00:13] <@SwaDM> "Now where the fuck is that coming from, huh?"
[00:13] <@SwaDM> "You been spending too much with Lous, have you?"
01[00:14] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"You're kind of an ass. But she isn't. I think Libra's probably a pretty good judge of people."
06[00:14] * Artisan_Kiran shrugs.
[00:14] <@SwaDM> "Pfth."
[00:14] <@SwaDM> "Listen."
[00:14] <@SwaDM> He cocks his head to the side, speaking at a more natural tone.
[00:14] <@SwaDM> "I appreciate it."
[00:15] <@SwaDM> "Libra isn't exactly known to be a worry wart, either."
[00:15] <@SwaDM> "So. I suppose she's right."
06[00:15] * Artisan_Kiran nods.
01[00:15] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"I figure when someone who sees the future tells you to be careful, you should pay attention."
[00:15] <@SwaDM> "You're just sounding a fair bit like Lous. That's all. Not that I'm saying that's a bad thing..."
06[00:15] * Artisan_Kiran laughs.
01[00:16] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"I could sound like worse people."
[00:16] <@SwaDM> "Like Sandra."
06[00:16] * Artisan_Kiran pauses.
01[00:16] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"I couldn't possibly comment."
[00:16] <@SwaDM> "Heh."
[00:17] <@SwaDM> "So..."
[00:17] <@SwaDM> He shifts a little onhis position.
[00:17] <@SwaDM> "You're from here, ain't you?"
01[00:18] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Yeah. I'm from this dimension's Valveria."
[00:18] <@SwaDM> "Hmm. Yeah."
[00:18] <@SwaDM> He nods.
01[00:18] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"I don't suppose you've had word from that far east, have you?"
[00:19] <@SwaDM> "A little bit. None you'd like to hear, but..."
[00:19] <@SwaDM> "You know how it is."
06[00:19] * Artisan_Kiran grimaces.
01[00:19] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"I wasn't optimistic. But I was hopeful. Thank you."
[00:19] <@SwaDM> "Listen. For what it's worth. I'm sorry."
[00:19] <@SwaDM> "But you at least got a chance."
[00:19] <@SwaDM> "The Void doesn't usually do this."
[00:20] <@SwaDM> "Mostly they just..>"
[00:20] <@SwaDM> He makes a weak wave of his hand. "Go straight to the point and eat everything."
01[00:20] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"I'm going to rebuild it, you know."
[00:21] <@SwaDM> "As long as you got something to rebuilt on. I'm sure anyone could."
06[00:21] * Artisan_Kiran nods slowly.
[00:22] <@SwaDM> He cranes his head over to the side, mouth twisting slighly in a fully neutral expression.
01[00:24] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"You alright?"
[00:24] <@SwaDM> "Hmn?"
04[00:24] <@SwaDM> He turns back towards Kiran, grinning.
[00:24] <@SwaDM> "Yeah, just fine."
[00:24] <@SwaDM> "Just thinking of all the fun we'll have, that's all."
06[00:24] * Artisan_Kiran looks at him for a long moment.
06[00:25] * Artisan_Kiran lets it go.
01[00:25] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Okay."
[00:25] <@SwaDM> "Eitherway, don't worry about camp. I've got security handled here."
01[00:26] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Alright, if you're sure."
06[00:26] * Artisan_Kiran hops up to his feet.
04[00:27] <@SwaDM> "I'll see you around then, eh, Kiran?"
01[00:27] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"Yeah. I'll see you in the morning."
01[00:27] <Artisan_Kiran> 5"And let's not get Libra pissed at either of us."
06[00:27] * Artisan_Kiran half-grins.
[00:28] <@SwaDM> "No promises."
[00:28] <@SwaDM> "Heh. See you about."
06[00:28] * Artisan_Kiran departs.
