128. Dual [voiced/action]

[corrinesbell]

[locked from Mithos and Martel]

Okay, guys. Raine brought this up a while ago, but some of you are new and things've changed a little. There's a kid here in Luceti named Mithos - he looks like he's about thirteen, with blond hair - he's from my world. And he's dangerous. Not like he wants to go around tearing the place apart or anything, but...more like, he doesn't trust anybody. He doesn't need a logical reason to attack you if he thinks he's gotta.

I don't want anybody going after him or anything, 'cause that's not what this warning is about. It's just a warning. He's come after me, and then Sayo, and just recently Raine and Yuan. You don't wanna provoke him and if you can, you wanna stay outta his way. Most people, he's gonna dislike or outright hate, so it's not like he'll be coming after you for conversation.

But like I said, it's just a warning. Nobody do anything stupid.

Anyway, I was hoping some people here were still interested in working in the tea shop. It's been great so far, but there's no way I can be there all day every day myself and not go totally crazy. I'd need someone who knows how to brew tea, and a couple people willing to take orders and serve it and stuff. I remember people saying they'd like to do it before - that's still true, right? I promise I wouldn't make you work too hard.

[The tea shop is where she happens to be at the moment. Though it's noticeably low on customers this evening.]

First things first:] Raine?! Is she alright, Beautiful Sheena?!

[voice]

[corrinesbell]

She's fine, geez Jack. Just send a love letter already.

[Thankfully, she is mostly joking.]

[voice]

[all7seas]

[Well THAT flusters him.] WHAT? Love...love letter?!

Wait, wasn't he locked up down in the tunnels? How did he... get at them?

[Voice/Filtered]

[corrinesbell]

Raine's been going down there to check up on him. He was pretty badly hurt last time and she's been taking care of it, too. I dunno exactly what happened but when I got there, Mithos was gone and Raine and Yuan were both hurt.

[Voice/Filtered]

[skyborne-mage.livejournal.com]

Which means he's on the loose again... well I guess that explains the warning. Dammit.

How are they?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Oh, so that's what's been going on upstairs.

[Okita works the graveyard at the Welcome Center, so lol, he's never awake when the tea shop is open.]

Is it so hard to find people who can serve tea?

voice

[corrinesbell]

Serve it? Not that hard. Finding someone to prepare it like I do? That could be a lot harder.

voice

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Hm~? [Japanese dude from the Edo period. Cannot imagine life without preparing tea.

Although he laughs.] I suppose that could be harder, yes. Some people simply have no head for it.

How are they doing, Sheena? [Despite the fact that Mithos was dangerous, that's not really his priority.]

[Filtered | voice]

[corrinesbell]

Yuan's acting all weird because he was kidnapped. ...You could probably tell me better about Raine, though.

[Filtered | voice]

[chikaidestroyer]

I never did approve her going down there. [And he probably isn't talking to her much as a result.] Where is Yuan now?

[Filtered]

[lezareno_prez]

He went after Raine and Yuan as well?

[THAT one he hadn't heard.]

[Filtered]

[corrinesbell]

I don't think 'went after' is what you wanna say. It's more like he saw a good opportunity and took it.

[Filtered]

[lezareno_prez]

I wish I could say that I was surprised, but...

What exactly happened?

[Mithos is very quickly putting himself on the list of people Dhaos really doesn't like. He's not exactly friends with anyone the "boy" hass apparently attacked, but Dhaos does kind of respect Yuan-- not only as an angel, but as a person, and while there's clearly a bias in the information Yuan has given him (and, most likely, giant holes Dhaos hasn't noticed yet) he's seen enough to assume that it isn't Yuan and Sheena being bigots. It's Mithos being dangerous.

...The message is locked away from Martel. There can only be one reason why, and Dhaos is beginning to understand what Arche meant when she said she didn't get how they could possibly be siblings.

Dhaos has no intention of actively seeking Mithos out, but given his intentions regarding Derris-Kharlan, he had better hope they never run into each other again.]

I have not heard from him in some time. Has something happened? [...Well, obviously he went after Yuan and Raine, but beyond that. Or perhaps he's asking about that specifically. Eh.]

[written]

[corrinesbell]

He's not in the tunnels anymore.

[locked]

[memoryboxes]

He—escaped?? What do you mean? Escape from where?

[This has literally been the first time she'll hear of anything about him being locked up, and frankly, her concern is growing by the second. For the village, and for Mithos...]

What happened, Sheena-san?

[locked]

[corrinesbell]

He's in the village again, instead of down in the tunnels. I dunno if he'll try anything...but he might.

[filtered|voice]

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

I will keep a lookout for him.

[filtered|voice]

[corrinesbell]

Thanks, Kratos. ...Sorry this is what you had to show up to.

[voice | filtered]

[falenandawn]

[It's late when the response comes. He had just spoken to him a few days ago....] ....Mithos? But he was locked up only a few days ago when I went to see him....


How dangerous is he?

[voice | filtered]

[corrinesbell]

I wouldn't exactly say 'dangerous' like I expect him to try to destroy everything. He's not like that. He's just...I dunno, the way he sees the world is different and he thinks everyone's out to get his sister, or to ruin his plans for their happy life together, or...something.

And he hates humans.

[voice | locked]

[wise_maiden]

... Thank you, Sheena. I was preparing to say something myself on the matter, but you've covered it well.

[voice | locked]

[corrinesbell]

Hey, I'm not gonna make you do all the work.

How're you doing?
