[beneficiary]

Inaccessible how? Is their name removed?

( And, well, since Aemond says it's okay to trust this one.... )

My sister has been missing since not long past.

[kobes]

Their messages bounce back, or go undelivered.

Oh.
Would you like me to check for her?

[beneficiary]

That is good information, I shall let my brother know.

We will not say no to assistance, there are dangerous people here that would not think twice about harming our sister.

[leavening]

so, he's just weird.

[kobes]

Yes. I think that much is immediately apparent.

[kobes]

I haven't met her, so it'll be a little tricky. I can start with checking on those
Dangerous people. And seeing if she's there.

[A weighty pause.]

Daemon's alone. Your mother and Aemond haven't seen her?

[holyposition]

Maxine wasn't gone for good. It might be different.

You don't think you'd learn it again, anyway?

@t.laughlin

[holyposition]

Did you hear?

[kobes]

Yes. I think I'm in shock.

[holyposition]

Any idea why?

[kobes]

It said "for maintenance" -- maybe they're just adding a new wing or something. A better card catalogue. Laminating the "no sex unless you clean up" poster I made.

[holyposition]

I don't think it'll take more than a couple minutes to laminate the poster, it can't be for that.

[ He does not think they are laminating the poster. ]

Do you think...something happened to whoever's in there, filling requests?

[kobes]

It might. I'm trying to prepare for every possibility.

Maybe? I hope I would. It'd probably be in a very different way, though.

[holyposition]

You can't really prepare to forget.

I can't...I can't imagine that. I've learned too much here. If I go back with no memory of this, I'll be heartbroken and joining the military. I'll have never met you.

[leavening]

maybe it is.

[Though really Hyunsu didn't think he was weird until he apparently became obsessed with him, but his standards may be skewed.]

[beneficiary]

We have not seen her and cannot find her. Your assistance will not go unrewarded, I shall inform Aemond of your details.

( It's about as close as a thank you anyone will get. Old habits die hard, even in new places. )

[kobes]

No. I can't. I don't WANT to forget. Even with everything horrible that's happened, I've been
Happier here than anywhere else.

I don't want to go back to a world where I don't know you or Quentin or Alicent or Shanks or anyone. I don't want that.

[kobes]

Do you like him back?

[Right to the point, this guy.]

[kobes]

You're welcome. [He knows what you meant, Aegon, don't worry.

Then, after a beat:] I'm sorry. I know she's important to you.

[kobes]

I hope not. I
Really hope not.


I guess I'll need to find a new hobby, if nothing else.

[beneficiary]

( No comment. )

We will either find her, or we will find what is responsible and should that be a person then we can all guarantee another will go missing before the day has ended.

[kobes]

[Koby momentarily debates the merits of cautioning against murder and wisely decides to Not.]

I'll keep my eye out as well. I think perhaps it might just be the house, though, unfortunately.

[holyposition]

There's more to do than just read.

[holyposition]

Me neither. If we can go back at all, anyway.

[kobes]

Well, yes, but I've not really done anything but read and train and
You know
Since I've gotten here.

I don't think I know how to have hobbies.
