Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

[level, not heated:]

You killed me in front of my king. None would call that polite.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

Then if we limit our discussion to our time here ...?

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

I do not recall any grave offenses, no.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

Then I will continue showing good manners.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

I will ask Gladio to do the same.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

If I recall correctly, part of the issue last go around is that he clearly remembered me. That has plainly changed.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

But he will remember you once more. Undoubtedly, that moment will arrive.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

Oh yes, it will.

I shall gracefully accept whatever punches come my way if that is your preference.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

It is not. Neither would I have you harm him. [like you did Jason] It is within Baritones' abilities to prevent someone from acting rashly without harming them. Simply postponing whatever clash may arise between the two of you would be my preference.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

I can use my abilities, yes, but he may altogether be more upset at me if I did so. Often those affected are not very fond of it!

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

Do you believe there is any other means to prevent violence between you?

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

If we are aiming for something less binding than a contract -- then perhaps an agreement in advance.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

Between you and he? That is his to make.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

I like to believe I have a talent for negotiations.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

You have a talent for deception and lies. I would be present for any agreement making you two endeavor on.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

[ sigh! ]

Very well. Has he been told about me in any aspect?

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

Not yet, though it remains to be seen how long that will remain.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

If it is inevitable regardless I believe it would be fair to warn him. It would help avoid any ... unpleasant surprises in the future, yes?

[ also hopefully maybe avoid Gladio punching him on remembering?? ]

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

I am doing my best to keep watch over his memories. But I can only imagine what you did to the king once he was outside of Insomnia. Gladio does not have to be as understanding as I do; he cannot be made to, only decide as much on his own.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

Well, now I am wondering if it is worth all the fuss. It is difficult for me to imagine any of his guard being ... Understanding.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

We have the luxury of time, and I am far more aware of your circumstances than I imagine any before were. Do you think nothing will change in your relations with him given those circumstances?

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

Do you believe anything will change? I cannot confess that I know the man well, especially as he is now without his memories.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

[blinks, considering, then honest:]

How could it not? We may not be able to mark each shift in each other, but I am certain that you and I have changed, at least.

Re: day 274 some time

[innerdaemons]

Oh yes. I'm aware of our own changes, but - - the young king's guard always seemed quite attached to him.

And in my version of events, I was essentially the reason for his death. I cannot imagine he will be pleased upon recalling this.

Re: day 274 some time

[tenebraecious]

And I am less committed than them?

No, you were not. The Blade Keeper decided that end, and I will hold no other responsible nor suffer anyone to believe otherwise.
