[3/10/2013 11:10:13 PM] Trystan: ((now entering the kitchen?)) [3/10/2013 11:10:29 PM] Trystan: "Fran! Are you there? I need to talk to you." [3/10/2013 11:11:52 PM] Josie: Fran's voice: Yessir? [3/10/2013 11:13:06 PM] Trystan: "Do you know if my dreams last night were caused by the spirits around here?" [3/10/2013 11:14:32 PM] Josie: Fran: ... I don't know, sir. Probably. I know they have... ways. [3/10/2013 11:14:58 PM] Trystan: "... Can I ask you some more things?" He's deflated slightly. [3/10/2013 11:16:32 PM] Josie: Fran: 'course, Master Trystan. [3/10/2013 11:19:10 PM] Trystan: "What do you think they meant last night when they said I was already one of them? When they said I would only take the others with me? Is it because I'm... becoming a necromancer?" [3/10/2013 11:21:03 PM] Josie: Fran: ... might be, sir, might be because you're one o' the family. [3/10/2013 11:21:46 PM] Trystan: "... The spirits here belong to the d'Amici clan, don't they?" [3/10/2013 11:22:14 PM] Josie: Fran: Well, not all of us, sir. Not all of us. [3/10/2013 11:22:29 PM] Josie: Fran: Some of us are, yes, but some were ones the d'Amicis did wrong. [3/10/2013 11:22:54 PM | Edited 11:22:56 PM] Trystan: "Do all d'Amicis end up here? Or only the ones that die here?" [3/10/2013 11:24:39 PM] Josie: Fran: Not all, sir, not all. Nowhere near all. [3/10/2013 11:25:48 PM] Trystan: "That's good, I guess. It seems like a hard place to be." He pauses. "I'm dorry you have to deal with all of this, Fran. We'll take the trash out soon, don't you worry." [3/10/2013 11:26:21 PM] Josie: Fran: ... thank you sir. You're very kind to think of us. [3/10/2013 11:27:00 PM] Trystan: "How could I not? You're people too." [3/10/2013 11:27:22 PM] Josie: Fran: Not everyone thinks so, sir. To some we're just... part o' the furniture, like. [3/10/2013 11:28:29 PM] Trystan: "... 's how my father thinks of those around him. He's wrong." [3/10/2013 11:29:27 PM] Josie: Fran: Servants get that a lot, sir. So do ghosts. [3/10/2013 11:30:23 PM] Trystan: "Yeah, but he thinks of his KIDS that way." [3/10/2013 11:31:35 PM] Josie: Fran: ... that's awful, sir. [3/10/2013 11:32:17 PM] Trystan: "I can't look at the world like that. People are people, and that's all." [3/10/2013 11:34:26 PM] Josie: Fran: ... I hope you don't grow up too fast, sir. [3/10/2013 11:35:07 PM] Trystan: Trystan smiles at that. "I'm a half-elf. It won't be all that fast." [3/10/2013 11:35:31 PM] Josie: Fran: All the living seem fast to me, sir. [3/10/2013 11:37:04 PM] Trystan: "I'll do my best, Fran. Thanks." He nods deeply to her and waves before he turns to head back to the common area. [3/10/2013 11:38:51 PM] Josie: Fran, faintly: Thank you, sir.
