text, @TARANTO, day after the saloon fire

hey guys guess what: blankets!!! me and TF to the fucking rescue, we rustled up like 40 of these bad boys
super cozy, some nice patterns. one of them has a robot wolf on it
it was also all entirely legal

they're ALMOST free, all you gotta do is tell me a story then come get one (i'm by those spiky ass fat plants that bleed if you knock them over)

also since i have 40 and there's more than 40 of us, i guess also pick someone to get cozy with

[ This is a totally legit question, Jesper understands. ]

Nah, he coughed them up. We didn't have time to wait that long.
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (let's make a night)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-14 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, seriously.

[ Gross, but sometimes you do what you gotta... ]

Alright, so where was I? The smoke stack, right? So Inej climbs to the top and lowers the rope down for everyone. We make it out and now we're on the roof of the prison sector, but some of us still have to break into the palace.

I was working the getaway plan, so I don't know all the details for how the next part went down. On my end of the job it was me and Wylan, our sweet little demo expert. We had to infiltrate the gate we'd be using to make our escape. Or more accurately, making sure that gate closed permanently so no one else could follow us out. We ran into a bit of trouble but ours was definitely the simplest part of the plan. Kaz, Matthias, Inej and Nina were tasked with infiltrating the party and finding Bo Yul-Bayur.

[ And a lot of stuff happened but Jesper legit does not know because Kaz didn't tell him...... ]

Once Wylan and I triggered Black Protocol and closed the gate up permanently, we met up with everyone else to make our escape. It turns out Bo Yul-Bayur was dead and we ended up kidnapping his son, Kuwei Yul-Bo. But I guess he knew enough about parem that the Fjerdans were still holding him hostage anyway. [ Here's a pause for him to shrug. ]

Anyway, so the only way out for the palace crew was through a tree with this spring underneath it, which was apparently also their god or something? Things were happening really fast. Inej had gotten separated from the group but me and Wylan saved her. And we stole a tank on our way out, because why not, right?

[ When you see a tank, you just gotta steal it. ]

So all of us meet up outside, got in the tank, crossed the bridge out of the island the Ice Court was on, then blew the bridge up to cover our escape. All we had to do was ride pretty all the way to our ship waiting for us in the city and we were in the clear. The end.

[ He definitely cut out any and all complications from that story, sorry, Ramir. ]

I wish that was the end of the story but.

[ HAHA... Awkward... laugh... ]

We actually got cheated out of the loot we were promised. The damn mercher pulled a fast one on us and tried to have us all killed so he could bury the whole job. Turns out he never told the Merchant Council about what we were doing, and he had his own grisha on parem so that caught us all off guard. If Kaz hadn't swapped Kuwei with Wylan at the last second, we would've been screwed for sure.

So this merch, Jan Van Eck, threatens to rat us out to the Merchant Council and claim we kidnapped Kuwei Yul-Bo against his will. (We didn't, by the way.) But even though things were looking pretty bad before we left, I'm sure Kaz could come up with something to get our money and get back at Van Eck, as well as clear our names.

That's just, uh, what we were in the middle of before I showed up here.

Yeah, "to be continued," whenever I get back.

[ I mean, it's all super cool when you ignore all the ways he fucked up and Kaz is mad at him but Kaz would never show up so it's fine!!

Jesper laughs.
]

But that's Kaz Brekker for you. He plans for everything. He's a schemer.
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (let's make a night)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-15 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, he'd kill it here. Crazy plans with impossible odds are his specialty.

[ Now you know All There Is To Know about Kaz Brekker, Jesper's super-awesome boss. ]

So, do I win a blanket or what?
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (time for some ke$ha lyrics)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-15 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
Nice. What have you got to choose from?

[ Groundhogs sound fun, but they're also like. Brown. And Jesper likes greens and yellows way better. ]

Got anything with some bright colors?
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (you won't forget)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-20 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Disco blanket?

[ Shame. Though Jesper's world hasn't had the disco era yet, which is an even biggest shame. ]

Green. The brighter the better.
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (it's going down)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-20 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
Nice.

[ yeeee he's excited!! ]

Where can I come pick it up?
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (I'm yelling timber)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-20 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh right. I'll be there in a few.

[ Well, here he comes, Ramir. One familiar-looking 6'3" dude with pistols strapped to his waist a smile spread wide on his face. ]

So, which one's mine?
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (it's going down)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-20 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ Pink fringe. It's gotta be the pink fringe. Jesper's eyes light up when he sees it. Green and yellow? And pink? It's like it was made for him! ]

This one for sure. [ He leans down to touch it. He wouldn't even care if it was itchy at this point, it's his #aesthetic. ] Can I just take it?
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (let's make a night)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-20 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ Jesper will treasure this blanket for as long as he is in Audentes, Ramir. It is his new favorite thing. He picks it up and throws it over his shoulders, clearly enjoying it for all its awful, bright colors. ]

Thanks. I'm glad you scored these.

[ because, yeah, it totally wasn't in a legal way but Jesper could not care in the least ]
endeudado: Charles Michael Davis (it's going down)

[personal profile] endeudado 2016-11-20 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[ always a problem with excessively specific denial. ]

Will do. See ya around.

[ He nods. He will share this blanket with absolutely no one because Kaz would sooner burn it than be caught with something this bright. (Or get within a foot of Jesper, honestly.) But then Kaz isn't here, so the warmth will have to do. ]

Lemme know if you wanna hear anymore stories. Though they won't be as good as that one.
