[ she starts by laughing, and then his fucking snort sets her off and she like, dissolves with it, coughlaughing herself. eventually she tries to clap him on the back to get him to stop coughing, but.
Yeah. He did, uh -- I feel like he mentioned something about Zemnian breakfast. All of us were laughing too hard about Jester getting flustered, I couldn't hear it.
[If Caleb could appreciate it even through that, that's seriously impressive.]
Let this be a lesson: perhaps consider saying things to people while they are alive, because they could be amenable to things that you might enjoy. [Yeesh.]
she drags him into simulations! she's... in a really good mood, honestly. ]
Hah, like the fireworks and everything? I fucking bet it does. Who did you show? [ she goes over to slap her hand on the podium... and thinks for a second. hm. ]
a little port town is behind them, busy and full of shouting vendors. but the beach is calm, and beau's hand slips off the podium as she smiles and watches their friends explore the beach. caleb is out in the waves, floating on his back. nott is hunting seagulls, jester is teaching a dog to blink? like the spell, blink, it keeps teleporting.
and a large pink firbolg follows fjord into the waves as they swim out to bother caleb. yasha doesn't seem to be present. ]
[Oh. It's lovely here? The blue sea, the sand, everyone laughing and messing around and so very alive. It's only been - what? Three? Maybe four days, but he already feels so very far away from all of this. Like a part of him had just instantly accepted that he's already gone to some other place. He hates that idea, that there's a piece in there that's given up so quietly and quickly. He is here now. That's what matters.
He just smiles and sits down where he is, boots digging into the sand putting his chin in his hands.]
[ she flops down with him, reaching absently to hold on to part of his clothes. anything, a pant leg, a sleeve, whatever is available to her. ]
Caduceus. After - uh. After... [ she gives up on that, and starts over. ] We went to go get Jester and Fjord and Yasha. We needed help killing Lorenzo, and while we were trying to figure it out, we ran into him. [ sniff. ] He's a good dude. Another cleric. He needed our help, too, so... he's been with us for a while.
[There was a moment there but he's back to bright and loud again almost instantly. The sleeves of his coat are free and available for clinging. Anyway, so Lorenzo's fucking dead. That's good.]
That's good. [It's nice, that they're out there helping people?] I like the look. Very colorful.
[missing new pink people, pirates, yashas cool new wings, jesters hot mom this fucking sucks man smh
That makes him laugh, like, a lot. That's fair though. Look, you can definitely find Jester's mom super hot because they are all aware they do not have a shot.]
Seems the advertising undersold her! I look forward to the day we return and meet Jester's charming, hot mom.
Yeah. It's gonna be the first thing we do. We're gonna get you back, and then we're going to go relax for at least a month in Nicodranas. I'm tired of sleeping in the dirt, man.
[ she kicks her boots off, so that she can dig her feet into the sand. ]
... You worried, at all? About what we're gonna have to do here.

Eventually he manages to get enough air back to recover. Just still. Fucking wheezing.]
She's right and should say it.
no subject
Yeah. I don't remember why it came up, but it did. [ she waggles her eyebrows up at him. ] Caleb said he liked it too.
no subject
He didn't! He did? Like he was brave enough to even look at it. [. . . ] Or I suppose he saw it when, well, the eggs? Maybe?
no subject
Yeah. He did, uh -- I feel like he mentioned something about Zemnian breakfast. All of us were laughing too hard about Jester getting flustered, I couldn't hear it.

He's grown a lot since then. I think if you'd suggested anything back then he would've dropped dead.
no subject
True, and then I'd have felt slightly terrible.
[ huff. ]
Then I'll have to look forward to my dick compliments from everyone with their own mouths.
[don't say it like that, please,]
no subject
[ she says, almost bemused. ] Not that that's surprising, just, you know.
no subject
[ wehehe ]
Maybe you should show me everyone. In the-- [waves hand. he is high?] Thing. The magic illusion thing.
no subject
[ she sounds genuinely excited about this. she grins up at him. ] They're gonna be so excited to see you.
[ she maybe is only this sappy because she's high, don't look at her. ]
no subject
[he'll just say it
Anyway, getting up? And then offering a hand to help her up.]
no subject
[ she informs him. but she takes his hands, grinning as she pulls herself up. ]

I've made Hupperdook on this thing. Really takes people by surprise.

Just waiting, though honestly he's a little nervous? Like. Seeing someone from your high school at the store or something. ]

His family is just as pink. [ she says, amused. nearby, nott is in a cage match with a crab. ]
This is where Jester is from. We met her mom, and she let us stay with her at this swanky inn sort of place.
no subject
The Ruby of the Sea? [WOAH] Was she everything the jingle said and more?
no subject
Yeah - man, Molly, she is so hot? I know that's weird to say about Jester's mom or whatever but. She's stupid pretty and her voice is even prettier.
