This is Gaheris Rhade and I've returned from a brief scouting expedition- [and he adds because Dylan had announced his alone-time.] -after unexpected delay. [Unexpected delays being a lot on his mind and curiosity about anything remotely dangerous.] Does anyone know anything about the body of water that used to be where the Wasteland now is?

I can't determine much. [Other than there was a dome in the middle of it. A lit dome. And he highly suspects it's the cause of that body of water being gone.]

Perhaps this is a very typical inquiry, but what have I missed?

*OOC: I need a way to break off the end of a boneblade for Loki's plot and am open to ideas, accidental and purposeful for ingredients.

[He's surprised enough that it takes him a moment to pull his hands from their position, resting them on the sides of her face lightly before she pulls away.

And he blinks.]

I suppose the point was I wanted to survive, but- [- I've already lost my life. He cuts off, then he steps forward and hugs her. Still baffled, but unhappy that she's so unhappy (and with himself for letting all this affect his judgement). He's not very good at being supportive. This is what he can manage.]

[Starbuck's not used to hugs. They always feel...like more than she's prepared for, even if she ultimately wants them. Rhade's hug makes her feel awkward, as if the kiss didn't already do it. She pulls away, moving to touch the sculpture he has in his room.]

Hunt might not be from your reality, you know that, right? Even if it's already happened for him, it doesn't mean that you do the same thing in your own timeline.

It's complicated. If I manage to return I'll have options I didn't have before. [He sits down on the floor, sliding down to it with his back against the wall.]

I've been trying to warn Dylan about a coming attack. Trying to lead him into finding out in a way that won't get me killed by either side... [He's quiet.] According to him, he doesn't realize what's happening until it's too late. So right now, I don't know. Just that I have to do something- bother here and there.

[She doesn't like seeing Rhade so rattled. Instinctively, she moves to sit down next to him. Words of comfort have never been her strong suit, so she just offers her presence, her side pressing lightly against his.]

Had to be hard, trying to get that message through. But I get it, feeling like you have to do something about it.

Nietzsche said to accept your choices and your acts as decisions that you've learned from. I can do the same with ones that I haven't made yet, if I understand the circumstances.

[Though he doesn't, and won't, sound pleased with the consequences he now has to deal with.]

What happened while I was gone?
