Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

My medicine is better. It makes me sleep so I don't get sick.

[He chuckles.]

Re: when he wakes up | audio

My medicine ensures that I don't lose my mind. And that I'm not sick.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

Keep your mind, please. Or you are even more useless.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

I am extremely useful. So far, the challenges we have faced have not particularly catered themselves to my skill set.

I am working on that, however.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

How?

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

Well, for one thing, I am exploring options to make my salutors a bit more physical. I have been doing research as I know there is at least one way for such a thing to be done.

Alas that of the priests on board, none of them is a rabbi.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

Is that a religious leader?

What would making the physical do?

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

Well, they could take a knife instead of my throat for one.

[He always assumes his brother reads his communicator so this isn't secret, but there's no point in saying this aloud, so he switches to text.]

That has historically been my job. To take a knife. Not yours. Not for me.

Did you even understand why I was angry?

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

I have no idea and refuse to guess. Use your big boy words and I will see if it's anything like what I think it is.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

I just told you.

I am the one who puts my life in danger. Not you.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

Who made this rule? When did we agree to this? I didn't agree to this!

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

Don't be an idiot.

It was what I did.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

Right. And it's not what you're doing right now.

I'm also not your brother.

So no.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

I did it for longer than you've been alive.

Old habits.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

That little phrase is going to get very old very quickly.

'Old habits' are old. You don't have to keep up with them.

Did you like it?

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

Like what?

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

Being the one to take the knife all the time.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

It's how I kept him safe.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

Perhaps the old man should check his eyesight: I asked if you liked it.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

I like keeping him safe.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

So the old bones are still good at dodging.

If keeping him safe could be done without doing that, would you like doing it anyway?

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

That isn't how it works.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[flawmaturge]

That isn't what I asked.

Re: when he wakes up | audio

[droppedstitch]

It's an absurd question.
