[ IMMEDIATELY JUMPS LIKE TEN FEET idk where they are its the void. ]

[ opens my mouth and starts squawking like a bird in conspiracy theory npc guesses that have to be wrong
here he is! the likelihood that rondo has been swinging his sword (loudly) for the past since he woke up is very high but death comes to find him when he's taking a break, so! he looks up, and then brightens. ]
Oh, it delivered my letter...! I didn't get to ask you what your crow's name was, yesterday - it gave me a struggle trying to catch it to send this off!
[ he sounds completely not bothered by this.
anyway with a smile: ] But, yes! Me again. [ a beat, looking at the cane. ] Are you alright?

You really snuck up on me...
[ rondo, hand to his heart like a maiden, finally relaxes, laughing. he's got his sword in hand but he was probably doing sword forms or something like a jock so its fine - he sheathes it as they're talking, there's a brief second and then! ]
Oh! That's right, I did. You were right, Lavi Boot is awfully testy...
[ he has truly so many bird pecks now ]
I was hoping we could talk about some of the things we couldn't yesterday, if today is an alright time...?

[ wtf this sword is so cool looking???? ]
They perhaps can be wooed by shiny items. For future reference.
[ they get fed up with the crow and something beneath the robe swishes and the crow just goes flying away like it got smacked. ]
It is as good of a time as any.

[ just remember its name is fisteralda ]
Oh... [ the birds like shiny things!!! he watches them bat the crow away and laughs a little. ] I can tell! [ you have such cool shiny jewelry... ] I'll keep that in mind for next time - I'm just glad I was wearing my gloves.
[ he wiggles his fingers!! and with that, will sheathe his cool badly named sword properly, expression going a little more serious as rondo bows his head, graceful and polite. ] Thank you very much, War, I'm humbly appreciative.
...I wanted to ask you a little about the... monster thing. And some other things, but that, first.

Someone suggested I name it, so now it is Vana. You can just call it 'flying rat.' It is a nuisance to me as well.
[The crow squawks indignantly. They lift the cane a little show they can stand okay without it.]
Yes, it's fine. Disability, not injury.

[ throws peanuts at you ]
Maybe it'd be nicer if you were a little nicer to it, Death. [ there's no heat or anything to this - he just laughs a little bit as he says it, watching the bird squawk. ] Vana... that's a pretty name.
They can probably be trained, right? A little kindness goes a long way...

[ just like home ♥!!!
looking... is the bird still on their horn. ]
...Is the problem that it likes you too much...?

[ the energy of grimace is felt. he laughs a little bit at that, though... cute.. and tilts his head to match the bird? hello bird! ]
I think they can be pretty smart, right...? We had a lot of crows in Bolderfall, but everyone uses messenger ravens at home. Maybe it has a mischievous streak...

[ maybe the bird is the cute one!!!!!! maybe its BOTH
anyway when the bird hops and squawks he looks delighted. ]
It looks like it agrees with you, Death. [ hehe. as for the rest! it turns to a clueless blink? ] Be its friend instead....? As opposed to you?

[ oh goodbye bird...he watches it go, before he brings his attention back to them. i guess also since it's Weekly Effects time or whatever, he's got a little ink patch around his heart on his cloak that says not noticing soon enough. learn more against your will ]
You said that before. [ not making friends... man imagine. rondo looks a little more thoughtful, and then nods, looking past them. ] It's okay, we don't have to be friends. But... it's not too bad to talk to others, right?
And, you did answer my letter.

[ there you go
ah... rondo opens his mouth to say something - and then stops. use your head, rondo, something says. rub those braincells together. ]
... Am I... allowed to talk to you about it? Or... should I talk around it?

What?
[ rondo blinks at them, and then looks down, and... it clicks into place. he reaches up to very gently touch the little ink spot, whether it's to smear it or just not to ruin it, and his ever warm expression falters, and rondo falls silent.
he closes his eyes, for a long moment. what did it cost? ]
...Not everything, but...almost everything. And it didn't cost me - it's cost so many people.
[ ... ] Someone important to me was suffering, and I never knew how badly he was suffering until it was too late. If I had known, maybe I could have helped him.

[ there's a nod, taking it Very Seriously, and he takes a breath. okay. ]
... I was thinking about... if there was any rhyme or reason to why the... they were 'monsters', right? Why they would have settled with certain people or not. Mine...
[ he reaches up - and touches his heart, absently. that odd, itchy darkness feels so at odds with the hole left behind by the sacred flame that was stolen barely minutes before his arrival. ]
... It's quite the opposite of the kind of person that I am. I'm not a good liar, and - I don't really like lying, at all. To find the other half... does that sort of thing matter? Or is it more random...?
