Ah - yeah.

[there's something a bit uncomfortable in his voice before he continues, but the smile is there regardless. at the very least, that discomfort might be explained when he says:]

It depends how things go here, but... We're engaged, yeah.

[preowned]

... I hope it all works out.

[ ... ]

What was all that?

[agleam]

...So do I.

[he pauses for a long moment.]

But, uh, you're going to have to define all that... That was a weird day.

[preowned]

Who were all they...?

[agleam]

Oh - well, it's obvious who Amir is, probably.

[gay

but anyways]

Uh, the woman who was there to start with who tried to kill me is named Malkia, but it's fine, we became friends. [oh my god] The girl who came in halfway through is named Cecily, and we've been friends for a while! The guy who was dragging me in there is named Percy, and I...

[...]

I learned to tolerate his presence since then!

[preowned]

Wow! Thinks happened.

[ that

is a summary. ]

I am glad you were able to sort out your differences.

[ the differences including attempted murder ]

[agleam]

Things sure did happen!

[they happened so much. he gives a nod.]

Me too, though! Thanks.

[preowned]

And are you all physically okay at the moment?

[ he means like

are any of you in the immediate danger of dying ]

[agleam]

[he just kind of freezes.]

Oh, uh... That memory was kind of a long time ago?

[preowned]

Oh...

How long?

[agleam]

[thinking it over for a second]

A few weeks before I got here, I think?

[preowned]

[ he nods... ]

How is it going now?

[agleam]

[he just kind of pauses for a long moment.]

Um. Badly? Badly. But, I'm gonna figure it out.

[preowned]

... you will. You are very smart and resourceful.

[agleam]

[his smile is a little bit uncertain, but he does nod along.]

...Thanks. I'll definitely do everything I can.

[preowned]

And if not, Percy can save the day.

[agleam]

Thaaaaat is not going to happen for several reasons, but it would have been nice!

[preowned]

[ his expression is clearly "what is going on" ]

[agleam]

[awkwardly, after a second:]

I can tell you what's been happening if you want to know, but it's kind of a long story.

[preowned]

You can summarize it, if possible.

[agleam]

[he thinks about several ways to describe what happened, before:]

...A monster made of pure darkness that feeds off people's fear and pain destroyed the kingdom.

[ok

he does get a little more somber, though, as he says:]

Percy's, um - Percy's gone? Everyone's gone. So.

[preowned]

[ rupert what is your life

... ]

As in... are you the only one left?

[agleam]

[sometimes... the lore is wild

after another moment, he nods.]

[preowned]

How long has this been going on...?

[agleam]

Um... Well, it started a long time ago, but I only found about it a few hours before we all came here.
