[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of these few months. Because not everyone is into parties, ok.   

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

Shadowkind problems. [Yes, thank you, Des.] They're working on a case similar to one I worked a few years back. [like twenty years back, but who's counting] 'Course it was less of a shitshow when I worked it.

[unforgivably]

Think they're mishandling? [ You can bet he's going to get all the information he can (diplomacy 20) ]

[nothingsodivine]

They're idiots, but they're my idiots. And most of it's not their fault. [Hello failboat's righteous indignation and protectiveness of one another.] We've got cults and drow gods and God only knows what else all over this case.

[unforgivably]

Clowns? [ He's taking a stab. ] Your idiots. Not a knight, but you fight beside em. This isn't the case of the knight wannabe, is it? Are knight groupies a thing?

[nothingsodivine]

The last thing I wanna be is one of Wynn's hounds. [Very, very adamant about that.] Like I said, I've worked with 'em for three years. That don't make me one of 'em, but it makes me appreciate 'em.

[unforgivably]

[ Appreciate how useful they are. ] How long ago did Shadowkind become a thing?

[nothingsodivine]

[Des chuckles darkly.] Existed or became public knowledge?

[unforgivably]

Both. Dumage made it sound like people falling through the veil is a new development.

[nothingsodivine]

Latest Shadow Incursion started in '75. But the door opens and closes all the time. Shadowkind have been around for ages.

[unforgivably]

[ So've vampires. Witches. Apparently, werewolves. That jives. ] What about you? [ How old you is? ]

[nothingsodivine]

What about me what? [It's hard to say if he failed his wis check or if he's being deliberately obtuse because he can't answer that question without looking like a freak.]

[unforgivably]

How long have you been around?

[nothingsodivine]

Long enough to know that pretty little castle over there used to be another big chunk of trees like this.

[Said a bit defeated as he starts walking back towards it.]

[unforgivably]

Vampire? [ He asks, raising his voice. ]

[nothingsodivine]

[Over his shoulder:] Why is that always everyone's first guess here lately?

[THERE ARE A LOT OF SPECIES THAT DON'T AGE OKAY. And he is also none of them.]

[unforgivably]

[ Catching up. ] You look [ forty-something ] thirty-something. That castle's older. A lot older.

[nothingsodivine]

And the average age of the people in it range from a few hundred to seventeen. What's your point?

[unforgivably]

My point being you're old. Takes one to know one.

[nothingsodivine]

[Des barks a laugh.] How old are you?

[unforgivably]

Hundred seventy-two.

[nothingsodivine]

[Oh my god. You're like a baby.]

You're still a kid.

[unforgivably]

Compared to some. Not all. [ A shrug. ] So, if you're not a vampire, what are you?

[nothingsodivine]

Not a what for starters. [he scowls.] I'm an outstanding specimen of humanity.

[unforgivably]

Whose modesty far outshines his age.

[nothingsodivine]

[he snorts dryly.]

I'm cursed.
