Characters: Breiden, Emerylle, Zairro, Seiran.
This was still during the Obsession Pin arc. *cheekpinches chibi!Emy* XD
On the Harbor
Further out, the water is much cooler. Beneath its calm surface, small
fish swim and search for food. Gently waving stalks of seaweed are moved by
the currents. Several ramshackle structures can be seen to the west along
the shore.
[Exits: south]
Breiden, Sanguine Harbinger is here.
A flock of noisy seagulls dive overhead.
Zairro is sitting here, her eyes focused worriedly on the siriyu.
Emerylle is resting here, her knees drawn close to her chest, chin resting atop her arms wrapped about her knees.
Emerylle looks apprehensively up at Breiden.
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, in a small, quiet voice, 'Yes, Mistur Breydin...?'
Breiden raises an eyebrow at Emerylle.
Zairro says to Breiden in common 'Don't be mad at her!'
Zairro frowns disapprovingly at Breiden.
Breiden says to Zairro in common, mildly, 'She deserves it.'
Emerylle sniffs sadly.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'Seiran wanted me to explain what you did.'
Zairro says to Breiden in common 'She doesn't deserve it if she didn't know it was wrong...'
Emerylle's ear twitches downward, her gaze attaining a resigned look as she curls up tighter.
Breiden says to Zairro in common, shrugging, 'For something like this... she deserves it. '
You bonk Breiden on the head for being so foolish.
Breiden grumbles at you.
Zairro shakes her head negatively at Breiden.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'You still don't see why changing him was wrong?'
Zairro says to Breiden in common 'I don't know what's going on..but you shouldn't make her upset!'
You say to Breiden in common 'What happened to calming down? You didn't come to blame her and make her feel worse, you came to explain.'
Emerylle nods faintly at Breiden.
Breiden mulls over the idea.
Zairro gives a small piece of rich chocolate to Emerylle.
Zairro says to Emerylle in common 'It's shiny!'
Emerylle smiles faintly at Zairro.
Breiden says to you in thieves cant, mildly, 'If I do it this way, maybe she'll understand.'
Emerylle says to Zairro in common, with a faint giggle, 'I's not hungry, but thanks you, Miss Zayro...'
You shake your head negatively.
Zairro nods her head twice in rapid succession at Emerylle.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'What you did... Would be the same thing as having someone like Vacuous change Kieran so that he only wanted to kill people.'
You say to Breiden in thieves cant 'She feels miserable enough already. She just doesn't understand.'
Zairro whispers in Breiden's ear.
Emerylle winces at the comparison.
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, in a small, quiet voice, 'But 's not the sames! Vakyus is means, and I was just tryings to make Mistur Brudy nicers...'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'It's exactly the same. No matter the intentions, you changed him. You made him into something that's not real.'
Zairro says to Breiden in common 'But if it made him nicer?'
Breiden says to Zairro in common, arching an eyebrow, 'So it's okay to enchant someone and change who they are just so that person will be more friendly?'
Zairro whispers in Emerylle's ear.
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, in a small, quiet voice, 'But...but it's still Mistur Brudy, he's just nicers....'
Zairro nods her head twice in rapid succession at Emerylle.
Breiden says to Zairro in common, coldly, 'If you ever suggest that again I will kill you.'
Emerylle whimpers.
Zairro tells the group 'You whisper in common to Emerylle 'Maybe you should do the same thing to Breiden!''
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'He's not himself at all, and you know that. There's nothing similar in the Kethis of now to the Kethis who used to be.'
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, deflating rapidly, '...But he's nicers, and people were being means to him bafore, and I just wanteds to see...'
Zairro nods her head twice in rapid succession at Emerylle.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'That's no excuse. He is *not* a toy, Emy.'
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, in a small, quiet voice, 'I wasn't playings with him...!'
Zairro says to Emerylle in common 'There's nothing wrong with wanting people to be nicer!'
Emerylle buries her face in her arms.
Zairro looks pointedly over at Breiden.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'That's all you've been doing. And you won't be able to make things better until you understand that.'
Breiden arches an eyebrow at Zairro.
You say in common, sighing, 'Alright, this is rapidly getting out of hand. Everyone take a deep breath and calm down. Or I will start whapping with umm...smelly fish.'
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, muffled slightly by her arms, 'I wants Unkle Dundun to stops being mads at me, and if I has to makes Mistur Brudy backs the way he was to do thats, I'mma helps...'
Zairro smiles innocently at Breiden.
Breiden says to you in thieves cant, pleasantly, 'Don't interfere. She needs this to understand.'
You say to Breiden in thieves cant 'You're making her feel worse than she already is.'
Breiden says to you in thieves cant, pleasantly, 'Yes. But she won't be able to fix things unless she does feel worse. She *has* to understand.'
You say to Breiden in thieves cant 'She's a kid, and no one bothered to explain this to her. She's only half to blame.'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'That's a start, then. But do you understand yet?'
Emerylle sniffles and shakes her head.
Breiden says to you in thieves cant, pleasantly, 'And that's why she needs this. Or she'll always be treated as a child and will never understand.'
Zairro says to Breiden in common 'Maybe you should talk in Zairran?'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'What you did... You changed him because you thought it would be fun for him to be nicer. But he didn't want to be changed Emy, and you didn't give him a choice. And then all you did was allow the spell to make him act as you wanted him to.'
You say to Breiden in thieves cant 'Just don't be overly harsh?'
Breiden says to you in thieves cant, pleasantly, 'I'll only be as harsh as necessary.'
You say to Breiden in thieves cant, mumbling, 'Not sure I believe that....do I get to rein you in if you go too far?'
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, sobbing faintly, 'But I didn't knows he would acts like that...I just wanteds to see, and makes him nicer, 'cause peoples were being means to him...'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, snapping out the words, 'Stop crying.'
Emerylle bites her lower lip and burrows her face deeper into her arms.
Breiden sighs, raking a hand through his hair.
Zairro hugs Emerylle tighter.
You say to Breiden in thieves cant, softly, 'Please calm down?'
Zairro gives a dull grey stone to Emerylle.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'It doesn't matter what you wanted him to be. You changed him from who he was, without offering him the chance to refuse. That's what was so wrong about what you did.'
Zairro whispers in Emerylle's ear.
Breiden shrugs rather irritably at you.
Emerylle's breath hitches before giving a faint nod, and holding the stone weakly in one hand.
You mutter under your breath.
Emerylle says in common, weakly, in a plaintive tone, 'I's sorry, I didn't means to do something bads...! Mistur Brudy lookeds happy, and I likes him when he smiles...'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'But that's not who he is, and just because you like it, doesn't mean that it's better for him to be that. Do you understand now?'
You say to Breiden in thieves cant, levelly, 'You need to calm down. I know you're irritated, but ignore it for now?'
Breiden gestures sharply at you for silence for the moment.
Zairro glances at Emerylle worriedly, biting her lower lip.
Seiran curses under her breath before floating over to one side and folding her arms, merely watching silently.
Emerylle says in common, weakly, '...But how come people don't wants him to be nicers...? And Mistur Brudy's happier 'til Unkle Dundun gots mad and I gots mad toos...'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'We wouldn't mind if he were nicer from his own decision. But you took his choice away. The spell makes him be happy. That's not necessarily what he truly feels.'
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, lifting her head from her knees, her ear twitching slightly, '...Mistur Brudy doesn't wants to be happy?'
Zairro shakes her head negatively at Emerylle.
Seiran opens her mouth to say something but snaps it shut, grumbling.
Zairro says to Emerylle in common, nodding firmly, 'Everyone wants to be happy!'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, pleasantly, 'He might not want to be happy. But he might also be happy from something else instead of what the spell made him feel.'
Zairro says to Emerylle in common 'But maybe...instead of the spell? You should give hugs instead!'
Emerylle releases an unhappy sigh, her ears twitching downward again as her frail form slumps in dismay.
Breiden bends down, catching Emerylle's chin in his hand and tipping her head up to meet his eyes.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'Emerylle. Do you understand now?'
You tell the group ' -- Tormentor of Tylendel -- Emy tell him no'
You tell the group ' -- Tormentor of Tylendel -- rinse and repeat! XDDD'
Breiden tells the group 'omfg if she does he will just LEAVE in a huff XD'
Emerylle reluctantly lifts her gaze to meet Breiden's eyes, her eyes shining with repressed tears, her lower lip trembling slightly despite the faint nod she gives.
Breiden releases Emerylle's chin, gently ruffling her hair.
Emerylle lays her chin back on her arms, her gaze returning to fix on the ground.
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'As long as you understand, it'll be all right, Emy. Now, you can start fixing things.'
Breiden pats Emerylle on her head.
Zairro says to Emerylle in common 'And I can help!'
Zairro says to Emerylle in common 'I don't know how...but I'll help!'
Zairro nods her head twice in rapid succession at Emerylle.
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, quietly, her gaze downcast, '...Unkle Dundun's still mads at me.'
Emerylle says to Zairro in common, with a faint smile, 'Thank yous, Miss Zayro...'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'I'll speak with him, then. What matters is that you understand and won't do it again, hm?'
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, blinking a few times in surprise, '...You'll talks to Unkle Dundun?'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, shrugging faintly, 'Why shouldn't I? After all, he was the one who was being unreasonable enough to try to ban Kethis from Gheldale.'
Emerylle looks hesitant.
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, in a small, quiet voice, '...But you won't fights with him...?'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'Not unless he starts something. After all, as long as you understand, it's all right.'
Breiden ruffles Emerylle's hair playfully.
Zairro says to Emerylle in common 'I can make sure he doesn't!'
Breiden is here, balanced carefully on a small raft, eyes cold and face expressionless.
Zairro is sitting here, her eyes focused worriedly on the siriyu.
Emerylle is resting here, her knees drawn close to her chest, chin resting atop her arms wrapped about her knees.
Emerylle says to Zairro in common, with a faint smile, 'I don't wants Unkle Dundun madders than he already is...'
Breiden yawns.
Zairro whispers in Emerylle's ear.
Breiden whaps Zairro.
Emerylle says to Breiden in common, in a small, quiet voice, '...I's not sure I do completely yets, but I wants to make things better. I didn't wants people mads at me or Mistur Brudy.'
Zairro pouts at Breiden as she rubs her head.
Emerylle tells the group ''Zairro whispers in common to you 'Now I think you should give Breiden a big hug!'''
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, mildly, 'You'll understand. That's what's important. And you *will* make things better.'
Zairro whispers in Breiden's ear.
Breiden snickers and pats Zairro's head.
Zairro says to Breiden in common 'And I'm going to help!'
Breiden says to Emerylle in common, amused, 'Well. With help like this, how can you not fix things?'
Emerylle giggles faintly at Breiden.
Breiden sighs, brushing his bangs from his eyes.
Breiden says in common, mildly, 'Is that all, then?'
Breiden shrugs.
Breiden says in common, mildly, 'I'm leaving then, I suppose.'
