5th Sending [Audio]

[thequeensown]

[Talia's voice has a particular edge to it and she's doing all she can to keep her shields tight. The only thing she allows through is a sense of calm for her dear husband.]

Kevas .. when you've a moment, beloved, I need to speak with you.

[No, dear, she's clearly not mad at you, but she's definitely upset about something.

Hope you got a head start, Tony. :|]




[OOC: Tag backs might be a little delayed, as I'm going grocery shopping. :D ]

[Kevas knows her well enough to know something's up but he keeps his voice calm as ever.]

Joo know I always be havin' a moment fuh joo.

/tags while shopping like a BAS!!

[thequeensown]

[Oh, Kevas .. you know your wife so well. Unfortunately she has not yet learned the art of locking, so she'll have to do this the hard way.]

Can I meet you somewhere? Perhaps with a bit of privacy?

[Read: Somewhere without staff, please.]

that's how it's done!

[drinkuntilidie.livejournal.com]

[When someone has free reign inside your head you get to know them rather well.]

Aye, joo be havin' someplace in mind?

[This can only be one of two things and judging by the seriousness, he really doubts that it's a roll in the hay.]

RAWR!!

[thequeensown]

[There is no hesitation in her reply, but alas there rendevoux will not be for anything pleasant.]

Are you near enough the barracks? We can meet in your room or my own.

/MANLY POSE

[drinkuntilidie.livejournal.com]

[Well there's always next time.]

Near nuff'. I'll meetcha at joor room.

[The urgency in her voice tells him that whatever it is she means business. His training can continue later and he hurries off the Green to Talia's room in the barracks.]

Knock knock.

/SWOONS

[thequeensown]

[Talia doesn't reply anymore than she already has, but she is in her room waiting when he comes knocking.]

Open to you as always, love.

[Once he's inside, however, the door closes most securely behind him and she turns to face him.]

When was the last time you spoke with Mimmi?

/CATCHES

[drinkuntilidie.livejournal.com]

[Alright that's not a question he was expecting, although he wasn't entirely sure what he was expecting in the first place. Something serious to be sure but what does this have to do with Mimmi?]

Not since she got here I t'ink.

[He's been a bit busy taking care of a certain nine year old goat girl as well.]

Why? What be wrong?

/ADORES!!

[thequeensown]

[She picks up on the surprise not only through their bond, but in the openess of his expression. He hadn't known what to expect, but she wasn't going to chew his ear for getting into trouble. No, not with what she was about to share with him.

Talia takes a breath and exhales through her nose, turning to pick up her journal. It's open to Mimmi's current entry, with the past one tagged, as well as the entry Tony made in calling her out. She might not know Mimmi well, and only knew that Tony was bad news through Kevas. Even so, this was really heavy shit.]

Tony attacked her. I haven't seen her, yet, but I've every belief that she's keeping to herself because that dung blasted piece of filth hurt her bad enough that she doesn't want to be seen.

[She's already been through any of the entries that were made and will let Kevas read through them quickly if he so chooses.

Can you understand the anger and horror lickig at the edge of your bond now, Kevas? :(]

[Head start, ffff. He's been in hiding ever since the 'incident' with Mimmi.]

This Comment is Not Here Either

[thequeensown]

[Well, whew! It sure is a good thing that Talia isn't an empath or anything that can find him with her brain!!

Wait ..

:Db]

Still Nothing~

[irredemption.livejournal.com]

[Oh. Oh dear. How unfortunate for poor, sweet, innocent Tony. He's been framed, he swears!]

I see nothing at all.

[thequeensown]

[Well, clearly!! What man in his right mind would beat the hell out of a woman for speaking her mind? That'd be so silly!!]

Meeeee neither!

[irredemption.livejournal.com]

[Certainly not Tony! Never! He's an absolute saint of a man.]

We should be alarmed about these seemingly sentient comments that post w/o our knowledge.

[thequeensown]

[Clearly it's all a mistake. Tony is a gentleman and a scholar!!]

Yeah. It's gettin' kinda scary!

[irredemption.livejournal.com]

[Don't forget about all the good things he does for the children of the world. Oh, how he loves the children.]

Y-you know Kevas?

Audio - sealed to Chloe

[thequeensown]

[Talia may not be tech savvy like some of the Earth brought people, but she knows magic and she's seen several seals by now. It takes her a few tries to get it right but after a moment she replies to the unfamiliar young woman. When she does, the reply is properly sealed and her tone is even once more.]

I do, yes .. He is my husband.

[Have you seen Talia, Chloe? I don't think you have yet, have you? Could she be a troll, like her beloved? Or was she something altogether different?? Brain bending shall begin in three .. two .. one..

Her tone is actually a bit amused as she continues.]

You've had the pleasure?

Audio - sealed to Talia

[ghostly-stutter.livejournal.com]

Hus...band... O-oh! H-he's your...

Th-that's...

[She's blushing, wondering who Talia was, but also relieved Kevas had a wife. Certainly if he was married he was trustworthy, right? Derek would be happy about that, at least. She thinks.]

I-I just met him. Through Sollux. [Great. Now she's blathering.]

Audio - sealed to Chloe

[thequeensown]

[The response is just a little unexpected and the empath finds herself chuckling softly.]

Aye .. Friend, husband and soul mate alike. As if one title is not enough, I lay claim with several..

[Chloe, marriage does not instantly a nice troll make. Yes, it happens to play true this time, but if you ask Sollux he might tell you to be all kinds of wary around Talia and her prying mind. :( ]

I see .. Sollux is a good lad. I trust Kevas treated you well?

[Her tone is gentle and warm as she speaks to Chloe.]

Audio - sealed to Talia

[ghostly-stutter.livejournal.com]

[Friend, husband, and soul mate, huh? Chloe is actually a bit awed by this, along with the woman speaking. To know such a thing with all your being... Derek was a friend, and her boyfriend. Is he her soul mate? She hoped so. She hoped he hopes the same.]

It's nice to meet you. I'm Chloe.

[Too bad for Chloe, she wants to trust this woman. And Kevas.]

He is. He did. We...are planning on finding answers. [In the forest. She wondered if Talia knew this, and how she would feel about it. Was she like Derek? Would she demand to come along?]

Audio - sealed to Chloe

[thequeensown]

[It was a long time in the making, Chloe, and there were any number of trials and heartbreak that proceeded and followed it. Yes, you've had some heavy stuff, Chloe dear, but Talia has been through stuff. All the same, there is always hope and she'd never suggest otherwise. Nor, truthfully, would she actually believe otherwise.]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Chloe. Have you been long at the Keep?

[It wasn't that Talia was a bad person. Far from it, really. She fought for the good of her people and was blessed in the eyes of her Queen and the Bright Lady herself. She fought for fairness and against tyranny and ill-treatment. She'd just accidentally empathically brushed her mind against Sollux's on arrival and knocked out his girlfriend, Isabella, to keep her from getting herself punished during the EPIC GREEN PUNISHMENT 2011©. Harming people was far from her idea of fun .. Tony was just a special case.

This is the first she's heard of this particular expedition, however, and she shifts with interest.]

Yes, Kevas is one to prefer answers above questions .. Might I ask where your travels take you this time?

Audio - sealed to Talia

[ghostly-stutter.livejournal.com]

I-it's a pleasure to meet you as well. I've been here what feels like only a few weeks, but apparently it's been a lot longer than that. Time flows differently in the tunnels beneath the keep. Be careful, if you ever travel down there.

[Chloe chuckles slightly at this. She knows how that goes.] I prefer answers as well, so I can understand that.

We plan to go into the forest. We're looking for a grave. I--I have an affinity with the dead, I guess you can say, and we're hoping the dead have answers. [She sounds sonly slightly hesitant, telling her this. Kevas, after all, probably wouldn't keep such an important thing from his wife.]

[Line. Face.]

LULZ

[thequeensown]

[Now, now, Aht .. Mommy Talia treats Daddy Kevas perfectly well.]

[lucky_breath]

[I'm watching you, lady.]
