[Video] Week 34 - Friday Evening

[wisdom_of_hounds]

So about this fog...

[Hey guys, there's a redhead on your network looking magnificently scruffy. That is full Irish beard right there. Actually... that's way more than a week's growth for those of you that knew he was leaving. He's currently sprawled out on the stone floor of his cavern hideaway, holding his arm up so the video's looking down on him.]

I was hoping to make it back into town today but apparently Verdana had other ideas. [And there's a knowing smirk that comes with that because he at least has spent most of the last weeks (as far as he knows) talking to her.]

So, I don't know when I'm going to be able to get back but... [His free hand comes up to thread through his shaggy crimson curls.] Anyone out there good with a pair of scissors?

[Private to Lyall]

As soon as this damn fog clears we need to go hunting... Oberon is bored out of his mind and we both need to stretch our legs. You in?

Jack is busy with his work at home, but I had a lot of time to study and try to figure out what I was.

[ he frowns to himself, though he keeps his tone consistent. ] So is it only direct touch that would hurt then? And... You don't have to pretend to be something else.

Ah... Um, that is... You don't have to act differently. Changing your speech patterns..? U-Unless that's normal for you! I don't really know... But, um, if you're from the Iron Age, or if you're from the modern age, it doesn't really matter? To me, at least... If that's what you are thinking about! Because I don't have a big interest in the Druids anyway...

[ could he sound more awkward? ...no. probably not. ]

[There's a long moment of silence. Most people don't pick up on the shifts in speech patterns when he makes them and no one actually calls him out on them unless they know exactly what he's doing, usually friends. Or the closest thing to friends he has these days.

He tries to shrug it off though, tries not to draw any more attention to it.]

Hey just because they started back then doesn't mean they ended then. [See? Casual and dismissive and he still knows a good deal more than he should about these things but he's not going to flat out tell this guy, spirit or not, when he was born.]

There were still Druids around and being trained in the 11th century. [Which isn't exactly a lie. He was around and training Cibran then. The fact that the boy never became a full Druid and that all the others had died some 300 years prior was completely irrelevant.]
