December FamMeet

Who: The Grove
What: Town Hall
When: Mid-Late December
Where: Inn Lobby
Warnings: Child death mentions, torture, body horror all probably will be brought up.

[ In the morning, Irene will trek around the Grove to knock on doors and let everyone know she's setting up a information sharing meeting in the Inn's lobby. She figures there would be best, considering the new fireplace (thread pending on my behalf) set up and the fact it's about as safe as they're going to get.

Irene also lets everyone know that any fights and any blatant drama starters will be met with punishment. She doesn't elaborate on this further. Zahliya is invited. Irene tells Moder if she wants to sit by the door to listen, she can. She does not invite the merchant siblings, however - though she'll make no objections if someone else does.

She seems to be writing things down in their shared journals this meeting so people can reference this later.

Are they supposed to look different? [Taking whatever he answers with a grain of salt, since Kreide says he's never actually seen one.

... And maybe, just for good measure:]
Whatever opinion you end up with on the matter, don't let anyone else try to force their beliefs on you. Mine included. Do what you think is right and keep yourself safe.

More... like aquatic animals? But also not. Certainly not as human as Mizuki looks...

( kreide frowns before nodding quietly with a sigh. )

... I really hope this isn't indicative of our stay here's future.

But, thank you Livio.
livlaughlove: but that won't do no good (237)

[The more he hears about it, the more Livio likens Seaborn and Mizuki to Plants and Independents. Which is probably a bad idea, assigning traits to things he isn't familiar with, and have the potential to be dangerous. But it's human nature to find patterns. As long as he's self-aware, he can keep from slipping too far.]

You and me both.

You don't have to thank me. If anything, I should be thanking you. It's helpful to have a neutral party with these things.

Do I really count as such...?

( he's still not sure what to do. is he neutral or just incredibly overwhelmed and anxious? )

Mm, but you feel... secure. It's welcome, after such a taxing day.
livlaughlove: now i'm feeling like i'm running in a dream (206)

You weren't out there stabbing or yelling, so I'd say so.

[That last bit certainly gives Livio pause. He just stares at Kreide for a moment.]

"Secure?" Me?

It feels a bit safer next to you! Maybe it's because you're very big.
livlaughlove: oh, wake me, please intervene (211)

[personal profile] livlaughlove 2023-12-24 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Well. That's true enough.

[He might end up glancing away, though.]

But you shouldn't get too comfortable, if we're talking about steering clear of monsters.

...

I will judge you on your actions here. And as such, I will judge Mizuki thusly as well.

( that said. mizuki don't feed people parts of you without asking. he's going to courteously deny any food. )
livlaughlove: and i know that you loved me too (232)

[personal profile] livlaughlove 2023-12-24 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
I won't argue with you. Especially after all that. But I gave fair warning.

That's more consideration than most give, really.
