It was really nothing at all! Moreover, not meant to be...some sort of announcement.

[erythristic]

Henry.

[that severe tone again, the one that says she stands for no nonsense.]

Saying you love someone is never nothing. It happened as it did - now they all know. Are you perhaps ashamed of the fact? If not, then you should stand by your words. You have found a love worth dying for. Celebrate it.

[cagedinflesh]

-No, I am not ashamed at all, and I do stand by it, of course. It is only that there is no need for it to be a matter of rumour... Rather, it is merely a fact which affects none but for us two, among which it has been common knowledge for quite some time!

[erythristic]

Think of it this way - such a public vow ensures that anyone with untoward intentions will think twice about moving in her direction.

[but that's not the point.]

What do you plan to do about her...state?

[cagedinflesh]

[Well that's fair enough, he hopes he can protect her from others like Lainost...]

I will do as the king has said, if she will not take the shard I bring, then I will offer it on her behalf.

[He says it without missing a beat, suddenly much too cold for Jekyll. And yet, the voice still isn't Hyde's.]

[erythristic]

Good.

[she exhales slowly.]

My advice on the matter is to disguise yourself and trick one of the more foolish ones into following after you so you do not incur the wrath of guards or fellows, if you cannot succeed in battle. Too many are so eager to assist those in need that they do not think to look for a trap.

[cagedinflesh]

That seems a wise plan indeed.

["If you cannot succeed in battle." Without even Hyde's power now, he really is powerless.]

I will do what ever is necessary and waste no time.

[erythristic]

If you need my assistance, I am here.

[he'll owe her, she thinks, but she can offer this out for the sake of someone doing it for love. it's too romantic to pass up.]

[cagedinflesh]

I would very much appreciate that, and would eternally be in your debt.

[He means it. He won't ask for help, but if it's offered, especially now that he has lost his powers as a Servant, he wouldn't turn it down. Not by a long shot, anything to help her. It can't be a matter of pride.]

I am afraid she is terribly upset with me for it, but I cannot bear to see her die.

[erythristic]

Better that she loathe you and live. [she sighs.] She'll come around, once she's back to herself. I don't know her as well as you do, but I'm quite convinced that'll be the case.

[cagedinflesh]

Precisely. Although I couldn't say whether she will get over it, however, if you believe so, then I can only trust your opinion, I'm sure you know her very well.

[erythristic]

Not to your extent. I'm simply being optimistic about the whole affair - and naturally, I'll step in to vouch for your good intentions.

[cagedinflesh]

...Do you mean to try to 'set us up', after the fact?

[erythristic]

Oh, certainly not. Setting someone up is for when they are not yet in a courtship. You already are, so there is no need.

[no promises on not finding ways to get them to spend time together, of course.]

[cagedinflesh]

[Grell.]

And what would you call it, then?

[It sounds an awful lot like it, okay!!]

[erythristic]

Giving you two time to enjoy each other's company.

[that's totally different.]

[cagedinflesh]

We have plenty of that as it is, truly! We spend quite a lot of time with one another!

[Paloma has a vampire safe room at his place, okay.]

[erythristic]

But do you two do...ah, what have I heard it called....any "going out" together?

[how this turned from scolding him for his stupidity to questions about his love life, she doesn't know.]

[cagedinflesh]

[Neither does he........... Here he is bleeding in a forest and being asked about his love life wow.]

"Dating", you mean?

[Thanks modern world for teaching him that one!! Important when courting a lady from the modern age.]

Yes, of course, that is the point, is it not?

[erythristic]

Good. She's a woman to be wooed before she is won.

[back to the point. the real point.]

Just promise me that you will ask if you need anything in this quest for a shard. Promise me as your friend, not as your fellow Unseelie.

[cagedinflesh]

I swear I will. My Master has made it clear to me my actions at the audience were full of too much pride and selfishness. ...And now I have nothing with which to back any pride regardless. It would be very helpful, and very good of you.

[erythristic]

You have your honour, Henry. That will carry you through.

[and the feed ends. he knows exactly how to reach her when he'll find himself in need.]
