There Is No Silver Bullet [Closed To Valdis | Library]

Finding Erin won't be hard, once Valdis is herself again; she's the only soul on the ship currently meditating into a killing trance, a state of no-mind she's hoping will be effective against Tiamat. She's...

Having obstacles. Intrusive thoughts, feelings, anxieties, these impede her meditation, but she's getting there. This has gone on long enough.

Maybe tell her the good news?

Grade A Hypocrisy [Library | After the Previous]

Erin keeps coming to the library to read, on the theory that she's definitely not isolating, look, it's a public space. What actually keeps happening is she gets three chapters in and passes out, drooling on the comfy chair. Coffee? No help. Tea? No help. Turning into a toy robot? The toy robot snores and turns back into Erin after an hour, leaving her sprawled on the table.

The Smoking Prompt [Bobby B's]

I'm writing this on a phone, Erin smokes multiple times a day, find her here. She's still drinking pretty heavily too.

Wildcard

It warm in Hell.

He chuckles at that. "Yeah, wow, I absolutely botched that. That sounds like...don't break a hip in your old age. I've heard that it's all down hill if you break a hip."

One Liner To Break Block

[crushed_pearls]

"Ah, but if I break my hips they gain the power to lie."

[professionalriot]

He just stares at her.

"Was that a Shakira joke?"

[crushed_pearls]

"...Did you think Valdis was the only meme queen in this pack/polycule mashup? Is that what I'm hearing? Ash. Man. Come on. Ash. My guy. My dude. Ash. What the hell."

[professionalriot]

He laughs. "Polycule mashup? Erin! You are...chaos. I love it."

[crushed_pearls]

"Do you now?" Erin kinda leans in, still smiling, and yet...more serious. "I think now might be the time, if you've got a shovel talk to hand back to me. Or concerns to raise. I took my shots earlier, as you well know."

[professionalriot]

"Yeah. I do. You are you no matter what." He shakes his head. "Nope. I don't. I'll just tell you the same thing I told Ylva. You have concerns. You aren't getting enough time to spend with her. You're feeling insecure. Whatever. Just come talk to me. Be honest. Trust that I mean exactly what I say."

[crushed_pearls]

"You gonna give the same back?" Erin asks with an arched eyebrow. "Valdis ain't the only empath laying around the joint, and I gotta tell you, after getting 'I'm fine' from a bunch of teenagers who ain't fine I will not hesitate to suplex your ass if I get that line of bullshit from a grown-ass adult."

[professionalriot]

"Yes, absolutely." He mimicks her expression. "I'm not fine. I'm fucked up. But, it's my own doing."

[crushed_pearls]

"Ain't that the way of it. Well, welcome to the packycule, orgies are every Never but sometimes large piles of wolves lay on people when they fail self care. No T-shirts yet."
