Olive Branch

"Not a lot of it that's rational, aye. At least... not by conventional logic."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 7:48 pm

"Only starts to make sense when you're in the midst of it." she nods.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 7:49 pm

"Aye, and by then... well, gods help you."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 7:57 pm

"If you're lucky it'll even be the right ones..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:00 pm

She chuckled.

"Not quite how I meant it, but I suppose that's true too."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:10 pm

"I know, but as so much with that it can be quite literal."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:30 pm

"Aye. Have to wonder if I would have accepted it if... others came to me."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:32 pm

"Do you still hear them?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:43 pm

"Other gods? I don't... I don't think I really do."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:45 pm

"No, I meant the... well prayers, I suppose."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:52 pm

"Those... aye. If anything I think they're getting... clearer."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 8:57 pm

"And you're okay with them?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 9:00 pm

"It still feels... damned unusual."

"And the other night... I think one of them thought I answered."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 9:01 pm

"That is strange..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 02, 2012 9:03 pm

"...aye," she said distractedly.

"I mean of course it's rubbish. Of course."

"The offer still stands if you want me to create a ward somewhere..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 12:28 pm

"...perhaps," she said with a conflicted look on her face.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 12:36 pm

"It doesn't have to be your apartment. Just a place where you don't have to listen if you don't want to."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 12:45 pm

"I suppose I'm just not quite sure how to take this, yet."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 12:52 pm

"Neither am I. It's hard to imagine how strange it must be to you."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 1:19 pm

"It was... odd. They're still not saying my name, nor do I really expect them to but..."

"...it was an underground boxing match. He poured out a half a bottle of whiskey on the ground, and the other half... on his head. He asked for... favor."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 1:22 pm

"Curious... And probably the closest to battle there is for most people."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 1:25 pm

"And... he won. His opponent was a little too slow, missed a few openings, left himself unguarded at the wrong time... and he won."

"He thanked me. I remember it feeling like he was thanking me specifically."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 1:48 pm

"That on the other hand... I didn't know the Morrigan had any active worshipers."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 1:50 pm

"There were still... well there were no names. It just felt like... an understanding."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 2:59 pm

"I'm almost tempted to try and track some of them down..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 4:13 pm

"Do you think that's... wise?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 4:20 pm

"Probably not. At the very least it wouldn't be wise for you to go meet them."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 4:44 pm

"..aye. They're... all fairly violent types."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:03 pm

"Well I'd imagine so, but that's not what I'd be wary about."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:09 pm

"Well, to say nothing of them twigging that there might actually be someone on the other side."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:15 pm

"That's what I'm curious about; how much of this they're aware of. The last thing I'd want to do was to tell them the truth."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:19 pm

"I mean I didn't... all I did was hear him, love."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:25 pm

"It didn't sound like he thinks that way, from what you've told me."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:27 pm

"...aye. I'm... I'm aware."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:41 pm

"If you want me to leave it be just say the word."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:49 pm

"No, it's... I know it's a fair thing to ask."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:55 pm

"I'm just... looking out for you, I guess. I feel somewhat responsible for you accepting all this."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 5:57 pm

"You said it yourself, aye? It was... well, more than a little inevitable."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Oct 03, 2012 6:05 pm

"I still want to help if I can."
