…

Infamous sure is one way to put it. It— looked like this all the time? Really?

[ like a spooky scawwy horror show… wow. she glances around, taking everything in while totty goes through the memory lane and also the horrors in his mind. ]

You’d probably know it all better than me, but… you really had a tomb here? Just out in the open? That sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Yyyyep... I mean, we got to go to a few other places, but we only got access to one of those at a time, and only for one week each.

[ it sucked!!!! and he's happy now that everyone can see how much it sucked and know that he wasn't just whining without reason!!!! ]

What, you mean the cemetery? That was among the least of our problems, I think...

No, the uh-- mausoleum thing? This place is already creepy enough and then you just had a whole tomb.

[ yeek. ]

At least you got to get out of here sometimes.

Yeah, the place was definitely designed by people who were way too into crappy horror movies and Halloween.

...Ugh, what really sucked about the rotating locations thing was we had no idea it was going to work like that until it happened. So I thought I had things all figured out, moving into one of the cute little houses in the first place we got access to... and then Monday happened and I was back here and my cute house was gone forever.

[ it wasn't his house it was rosie's and he stole it ]

Oh, they just… vanished forever? Like— [ she makes a poofing motion with her hands, and then looks around the village proper. ] That sucks. But at least you got a little bit of time in a proper bed?

I can’t blame you for wanting to find alternative accommodation. This is all pretty sparse. [ and miserable. ]

Yep. ...I mean, they all came back at the very end when everything got crazy, which is why they're here now, but. It was rough. Like, if you didn't stock up on clothes in that first place while you had the chance, you were pretty much out of luck until we finally got another area with a decent store a month later.

[ AWFUL......... sighs. ]

Anyway. As for what we did have here... [ mm... considers for a moment before pointing toward the church. ] Well, that over there's the church Essek's leech bible came from.

… Oh ew, a whole month?? Did you guy even have a bath here, or some way to wash the clothes?

[ she thought they were going to be gross after five days can you imagine what she’d have been like here? (“becks you played astarion and he was an absolutely insufferable bitch about it”) can you IMAGINE— ]

Sounds like the rule of thumb is if you see clothes, stock up. [ … ] The. The leech bible. Right, that thing. Why did it even have leeches in the first place?

[ OUR PRISSY DEVIL BITCHES... ]

Nope!! I mean, personally, I complained to the overseers until they let me go over to their place and use their bathroom, so I could sneak over to shower and wash my clothes there.

Here, though... there were a few sinks where you could at least sort of wash your clothes, and they'd give you detergent if you asked for it. But otherwise all you had was the haunted house's haunted bathtub that sometimes randomly went rusty in the middle of using it or the stream outside.

[ and who knows what kind of shit was in there!! ]

I don't think there were originally leeches in the bible. [ at least physically, maybe it talked about leech plagues or something, he doesn't know. ] But some of the people here were really screwed up and loved pranking each other with leeches, so they probably stuffed the bible with them to mess with whoever kept stealing it.

[ he looks like he feels kind of itchy just talking about leeches, and a sin tattoo materializes on the side of his neck that says CELEBRATED THE MURDER OF A MIDDLE SCHOOLER. whatever karma deserved it. ]

[ the fact it was totty, astarion and the just


lucas mcmurderhands ]

At least you had that? Imagine if there'd been no showers anywhere. [ i'm so glad they both just whined to the overseers until they went if I let you use our shower will you shut up? ] The other options sound... not great. You don't even know what's in those streams unless you ... specifically go looking, and it doesn't look like a particularly pleasant stream either.

[ leeches, apparently. ]

And they were still in there after however long since you all left there? [ .... looks at this tattoo. mentally looks into the camera like she's in the office. she doesn't have a sin, exactly, but there's the occasional flickering words "being wiped" that seem to be popping up in random places on her body. ]
