You gave it to someone else? Anything else?

A dog probably would've been pretty well-received, though. Missile could have company...

[unanswering]

I did, but I'd prefer not to say who.

[still drawing... it's jin ling with a big fluffy bear-sized dog.]

As could young master Jin. He seemed taken with them.

[oathic]

That's fair, I guess... Anything besides the shield?

[cute...]

He did mention having one, before.

[unanswering]

Everything else is up to the others to mention.

[they can out their items themselves if they feel like it, it's fine.]

It's unfortunate Fairy couldn't be brought here with him, honestly. It's a very well trained animal.

[oathic]

[...

agni is quiet for a few moments, before he sighs.]

You know, there's really no point in being so secretive when the others in your group aren't.

[unanswering]

Then say what you'd like to.

[he glances up just briefly, before returning to his work.]

[oathic]

Toi already told me everything, Nie. I was just double-checking what he said.

[unanswering]

I'm sure you can understand why I might not mention something.

[oathic]

It was just a bit of friendly advice.

[unanswering]

I'm really not sure you can offer me much advice on openness-- I'm sorry, what was your name again? Because I do seem to remember two of them.

[everything went very badly, he thinks he's allowed like 5 seconds of being bitchy in general.]

[oathic]

I go by both of them. Even Brilith sometimes calls me Babo Kim when she's annoyed at me.

[unanswering]

Aliases are useless if one doesn't stay used to them, I suppose.

[he sighs there, though, finally putting his pen down.]

And some other sorts of things are useless if they're too well known. Did you just want to know if I was willing to tell you?

[oathic]

A little. But I did mean it when I said it was advice, you know. If you want to keep it hidden, you should make sure to tell Toi and Jin Ling as well.

Although I do hope it's something you'll use for the good of all, when the time comes.

[unanswering]

I did tell Jin Ling. I haven't had a chance to speak to Toi, evidently because he's busy sharing it all already.

[also I've been at work dying but. he's tired, let him live.]

... we'll see how useful it ends up being. It'll be pointless if the timing is wrong.

[oathic]

Toi's an honest kid.

[honestly that's valid]

Well, some things are hit-and-miss, unfortunately. But good luck—I'll be cheering for you.

[unanswering]

I'm sure.

[for a second it seems like that's all he has to say, but:]

Was there anything else?

[oathic]

Are your wounds okay?

[unanswering]

-they've been seen to.

[a little gesture toward the bandages peeking out beneath his sleeves, at the collar of his robes.]

The stairs are a little troublesome, but not so much I can't manage.

[oathic]

On top of getting shot... Are you still doped up on painkillers?

[unanswering]

I wouldn't go that far.

[he knows a responsible medication usage thanks to the canon existence of pain pills, thankfully.]

[oathic]

Well, that's good. I mean, it's not good that you're in pain, but good that you're being careful, I guess...

[...]

Does it ever get lonely?

[unanswering]

Here, you mean?

[that gets a slight tilt of his head, a halfway curious glance.]

[oathic]

Sort of.

Being constantly wary, I mean.

[unanswering]

It's been a necessity. How I feel about it hasn't exactly mattered.

[oathic]

It's your life. Your feelings are the most important thing, aren't they?

But I guess I can understand prioritizing necessity.
