[ well, there's no way to say it, except to say it, so: ]

One of us died today. Big guy, blond hair. I don't know his name. I found his body.

[ that's his schtick, isn't it? finding bodies. ]

What I do know is that he fell on some rocks near the beach. Looks like an accident, no foul play. The fall shouldn't have killed him.

[ could've, if the bastard really were that unlucky, but it's unlikely. besides: ]

But it did break his lantern. Seems like Winters was telling the truth about that after all. Before anyone asks:

1) No, I didn't see it happen.
2) Yes, I checked for a pulse.
3) No, I didn't do it.

[ juST COVERING HIS BASES THERE ]

One more thing. I had to step away to get my tablet. When I came back, both he and his lantern were gone. No one else was here, I'm positive. They just vanished into thin air.

[ ooc | so as of today, rosinante (callada) is dead :C feel free to threadjack in this post and use it for discussion or whatever! ]

Clearly you need to get out more on a Friday night.

[voktys]

For what purpose?

[chardismastic]

To get laid? [ Damn, colloquialisms again. ] Sex. I would probably bet on sex being better than fire.

[voktys]

Why not say so? ⟪ Right away, that is. Come on, she's a priestess, not a septa. ⟫ What do you think passion is, if not fire? Heat? I loathe to encounter you between the sheets if you have not felt either.

First of all. I've had nothing but glowing reviews in that arena.

Second, passion is a whole lot of other things including a metaphorical heat which... I don't think that's the kind of fire you're talking about. [ ...Hold up. ] Please tell me you were talking about the real kind with all that "in the lungs" part.

[ Because otherwise. He thinks she's telling him she frenches dead bodies for religion. ]

[ sure thing, window dressing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ]

[voktys]

People lie.

[ is she teasing him, honestly it's hard to tell. she sounds pretty serious. ]

There are many kinds of fire, and they all fall under the Lord's domain, but as for the rite – yes, it requires literal flame.

[chardismastic]

And there's plenty other evidence to back up an A-plus performance.

[ Whether it's a tease or not, he will not STAND for this SLANDER AND CALUMNY. ]

And the breathing into the lungs. Is that also literal?

[voktys]

It is magic. No one is kissing dead bodies.

⟪ she isn't sure if her poison immunity would... quite get her that far. ⟫

And I'll believe in your skills when I see them.

[chardismastic]

Thank Christ.

[ Now that that little necrophilic detail's out of the way, onto the important part of this convo. ]

That an invitation?

[voktys]

[ Always good to cover your bases, really. ]

You know where my room is.

[chardismastic]

Indeed I do.
