[ It's the most horrible time of the year, and for once, Koltira is semi-lucid enough to say so. Sort of. The pain of long restraint muddies his thoughts; garbles his speech. His voice is thick, halting. He can't maintain coherent thought for long. ]

I have isolated myself in the woods. If you value your life--you will stay away.

He sounds like he's having a real whale of a time, if you ask me.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . HA. . .]

I, too, frequently isolate myself in the woods when I'm looking for a good time.

[he's not even bothering to mask that sarcasm]

[cashlin]

Man. Audentes really knows how to throw a party. [ s m h stop playing these games with people on the network ]

I'unno what kind of weird fit he's having, but if he has to make an announcement about it? You might wanna check on how much you value your life, trying to check in on him.

[purrtagonist]

[that actually gets an amused snort out of him]

I'm not about to do anything stupid. [he does value his life, actually. . . as much as he wants to help others, he isn't about to do so blindly, when the person he would like to help has warned him against it] But for those of us new around here? This kind of message dooooes ring a couple of alarm bells.

Nope, he isn't. So just keep your distance right now.

[purrtagonist]

[well, Akira doesn't have any immediate plans to go poking around the woods to see what's going on, but. . .]

. . . all right.

You're sure he doesn't need any help?

[fateality]

Trust me, there isn't a whole lot any of us can do. You just need to wait it out.

[purrtagonist]

But-- [augh. no. . . he doesn't know enough about this situation to argue, even if he wants to]

I feel like I'm out of some kind of loop, here. Does this sort of thing happen often to him?

[fateality]

You're freshfaced, so that ain't exactly unexpected.

Yeah, it does. Maybe once a year now? ...Look, I can give you a rundown, if you want. Since he isn't here to say it, an' it's not like it's a big secret.

[purrtagonist]

[there's a pause, a bit of hesitation as he wonders how fair of it it is for him to pry into a stranger's private affairs]

If you don't think he'd mind, I'd like to know.
