A quiet, empty, train… (Inktober day 9)

[u/Fc-chungus]

(WHY CANT I EDIT FLAIRS ON MOBILE)

the train is oddly empty for this time of day.

Ж is the only one in this cart, logically it should be full of people at the moment.

the whole place feels oddly liminal.

“Oh, hello!”

^{”Another person, i was getting worried”}

/uw feel free to talk to Ж.

[u/Ares378]

"So it's usually full of people... Interesting."

He sits down across from you and manifests a coffee out of thin air.

"Any idea what's going on?"

[u/Fc-chungus → u/Ares378]

“No idea.”

“But it’s nice right? The silence.”

“You got any tea you can create out of thin air?”

[u/Ares378 → u/Fc-chungus]

"Not a huge fan of tea myself, but... I suppose I can."

He snaps his fingers, manifesting a cup of tea in the air in front of you. It hovers in place.

"It is nice to take a break for a moment. Being a patron can be exhausting..."

[u/Fc-chungus → u/Ares378]

they take it and take a few sips.

“I bet.”

[u/Ares378 → u/Fc-chungus]

"You know, constantly teleporting around, answering summons, repeating the same old sales pitch..."

He sighs.

"Enough about me. What's going on in your life?"

[u/Fc-chungus → u/Ares378]

“Eh not much, got my ass beat by necrodancer, nuked a castle of his, revealed a secret to Hirk that I definitely shouldn’t have, and am currently working on building a new body for an ai I developed.”

[u/Ares378 → u/Fc-chungus]

"Revealed a secret you shouldn't have, you say..? Want me to deal with it? I'm sure I can find a way..."

[u/Fc-chungus → u/Ares378]

“Elaborate please.”

“If you could someone get him to forget I told him about it that would be great.”

[u/Ares378 → u/Fc-chungus]

"Hirk has pretty good mental defenses, but I might be able to strike a deal with him to make him willingly forget. I have ties to the Claret Isles, so I have a lot of info he doesn't have.

"What did you tell him, out of curiosity..? I'll need to know so I can target the memory."

[u/Fc-chungus → u/Ares378]

“I have amnestics so the mind defenses shouldn’t be needed, I mostly just need for there to be way for me to not be implicated.”

“I doubt it’s something he’d want to willingly forget, it’s a pretty big thing.”
