((this one is OLD TIME JONES))

Disciple thinks about him a lot-- in a variety of ways.  His relationship with Kasvik and Ymirra, the years and years he spent cut off from all of them. She is often afraid-- afraid that she could do more to help him, and afraid that she ultimately can’t.  She doesn’t like being reminded how splintered her clan has become, how little can truly soothe that kind of hurt.  She thinks about how unfair it is that he’s had so much of his personhood taken away from him, how the things she remembers are from a past so distant he couldn’t be faulted if he didn’t remember them.  

She feels a lot of things about him, but all of them hurt.

He is good.  He does not think he is as good as he is.  He is weary but he is not as worn as he thinks, not as broken, no.  Gentle soul.  Good heart.

On Xmas day, a couple of packages are left for Kasvik, Huntress, and Sileas. For Huntress, the gift is small: it is a framed photo of Disciple and Signless on LoFaF. They aren’t posing; this was back when Terezi had begun to snap photos of the first scene off the UU after landing. The duo are a little fuzzy on the edges as this was clearly part of a larger picture (resized and cropped), but Terezi hoped she’d enjoy nonetheless evenifFirstShipiscurrentlyfighting.

*on this christmas morn, DISCIPLE will awake to a gift wrapped up in orange ribbon. inside, she will find a BIG FLUFFY SPOTTED PELT. merry christmas, disciple!*

THE CAT WILL ENJOY THIS.  She is currently wearing it, since winter planet is CHILLY.  She doesn’t really understand the significance of the day or why she suddenly has a present, but if she tracks down whoever gave her this, they will probably wind up with a dead thing on their doorstep.  Merry Christmas!

[apostolicchronicler-blog]

UNCLE BRO: -Okay, how does one find a cat? Honestly, Bruncle didn't know. Still, he looked at the ships roster. Signless' room made as much sense as any, so he guessed he'd start there, knocking on the door and hoping to whatever deity that kasvik wasn't there-

DISCIPLE: -The good news is that Kasvik is not there right now. The Bad is that the Disciple is not, either.  She is standing behind brucle with a baby hanging onto her head.  When did she even get there?-

DISCIPLE: ....Rrrrrrr.

UNCLE BRO: -He turns and is greeted by...this sight. Is that safe for the baby? Probably.-

UNCLE BRO: Sup youre the disciple right

DISCIPLE: Is name she hears.  She will answer to it.  -She is still kind of terse, after what happened, but at least now that she knows, she is not hostile.  Sileas babbles at Dave, curls of her hair wrapped around his fingers.-

UNCLE BRO: Dope yeah thats real cool

UNCLE BRO: Uh you heard about rosa right -sup nod at Sileas-

SILEAS: -HE DOES NOT SUP NOT IN RETURN.  HE HAS BROKEN THE SACRED COVENANT.-

DISCIPLE: -She goes to open the door.- Rr.  Inside.  Yes.  She will put hers down so he does not hear.  We will speak what needs to be spoken.

DISCIPLE: She knows.

UNCLE BRO: -What a little shit. He's gonna kick that kid in the ribs. He follows her inside, sneaking a sip from his fave accessory.-

UNCLE BRO: Gotcha yeah jr probably shouldnt be privy to this

DISCIPLE: -she chitters and hisses something in alien trollspeak, lifting him off of her head into what might be called a playpen if playpens were carved out of animal bones.  She chitters a few more things for an awkwardly long period of time, before turning to look rather directly at bruncle.- :TT

UNCLE BRO: Yeah aight i dont know any other way to roll this than to just be up front like the most fronted of ups and here it goes like this is the most new pussycat except it aint because i been carryin this for like a week but mirra deserves better than that ya dig which we might have to do considering her state right now but if we need something to put in that hole then i might have the remedy

DISCIPLE: He talks strange.  Says much, but little.  -She prowls closer, sniffing at him.- Holes, digging.  Humans do this?  You wish to put thing in hole?

UNCLE BRO: That's usually how we lay our dead to rest either that or burning them to a fine ash and scattering them to the wind or some shit

DISCIPLE: ...what.  Is.  What does this mean.  He has. Thing to put in hole.  -A DEAD BODY. She seems to have some difficulty grappling with the implications of this.- ...she... oh.

UNCLE BRO: Yeah

UNCLE BRO: I grabbed her before you and kas busted in i uh didnt think she would want him to have to see her like that but i also didnt know what to do with her but i think shed want you to perform final ceremonies

DISCIPLE: -She looks down, letting out a sigh.-

DISCIPLE: ...is here?  Now?  She is here?

Mettadom: UNCLE BRO: Yeah yeah she is -He scratches the back of his neck-

UNCLE BRO: I understand if its a lot

DISCIPLE: No.  Is not.  It is not.  It is something she has thought about.  

DISCIPLE: She did not think she would be the first...

DISCIPLE: She thought she would live longer than all.

DISCIPLE: But she...

DISCIPLE: Understands, yes.

Mettadom: UNCLE BRO: Yeah she uh she was definitely taken too soon she was a good friend of mine

UNCLE BRO: Shes missed

DISCIPLE: -She lets out a soft 'murr.'- Will not take her here, near Kasvik and the little one.  Will find an empty room for this.  Will bring her there, yes? It will be done.

Mettadom: UNCLE BRO: Yeah yeah thats a better idea

DISCIPLE: Rr.  Will tell him that she will be gone.  Then... We do this, yes.

UNCLE BRO: Aight yeah we should stop by her room and get something nice for her to wear

DISCIPLE: Is not necessary.  Will not keep the body.  

DISCIPLE: She will preserve the skin.  The bones.  She will make something new and beautiful.  

DISCIPLE: The flesh always goes away.  But not this.

UNCLE BRO: Oh -What the actual fuck is this cat talking about? He needs another drink.-

DISCIPLE: -It is OK no one likely knows but her.  She casts a look over towards Sileas a moment, frowning.- ...May she hold her?

UNCLE BRO: You want her right now

DISCIPLE: She knows it is not her.  It is... A card, yes?  A thing to hold the larger things.  She knows some things.

UNCLE BRO: Yeah you got that shit right on the head yeah you can hold her -He finally digs through his sylladex, and he pulls out a card, jade green. His body is still, a moment, then he hands over the card with utmost care.-

DISCIPLE: -She sniffs at it, as soon as its in her hand, her grip on its surface exceedingly gentle in case she risks damaging the unknown technology.  She rests her forehead against it.  It didn't smell like much of anything, and maybe she was hoping for... Something of her to be there.  Still, it was more than she had a moment ago.-

DISCIPLE: Is sorry. -She murmurs, quietly.-

UNCLE BRO: -It was definitely less formal, this technology, but thankfully it was keeping her body preserved. Dave was sure he was intruding on an intimate moment, something not meant for him.-

DISCIPLE: ...she thanks.  Is.  Good.  Good that she is here now.  -She lowers the card, blinking up at him.-

UNCLE BRO: Yeah shes home again

UNCLE BRO: Thank you

Paint: DISCIPLE: yes.

Mettadom: UNCLE BRO: I should uh i should leave you and um her

UNCLE BRO: Yeah

DISCIPLE: -She doesn't say much, sitting right there on the floor and staring at the card.-

UNCLE BRO: Yeah seeya -He's just gonna quietly make his exit-

[10:53] PF: HOW SO.

[10:53] AC: She has been with hers. For a very long time.

[10:53] AC: She does not think about how it is. She just feels.

[10:54] AC: It is a good feeling. Strong. It changes often, but it always returns.

[10:56] PF: *he strokes his chin* DO YOU QUESTION YOURSELF OVER THE POSSIBILITY OFTEN.

[07:01] AC: She thinks he does not realize what she is asking. She is not simply asking for stories, no. She is Very Official. She has a Very Official right to hear of things related to her nation and her people, and her fellow ambassador.

[07:02] CT: D ==>> The mistake is mine

[07:03] CT: D ==>> The lovers' quarrel between Ampora and Vantas simply had no business e%posing itself in public

[07:03] CT: D ==>> That is all

[07:03] AC: She is not public.

[07:03] CT: D ==>> I did not insinuate that you were

[07:04] AC: >:OO

[07:05] CT: D ==>> Hmph

[07:06] AC: :33

[07:06] CT: D ==>> Are you quite done

[07:07] AC: Never!

[07:08] -- centurionTrucidator [CT] is now an idle troll --

[07:09] AC: He lies very much.

[07:10] -- centurionTrucidator [CT] is so idle, he is obviously ignoring her so much --

[07:10] AC: He is very bad at this!

[07:11] CT: D ==>> You are still speaking

[07:13] CT: D ==>> What do you hope to accomplish with this

[07:13] AC: She expects to accomplsih a free exchange of thoughts and ideas!

[07:13] CT: D ==>> There is no such thing as free e%change

[07:14] CT: D ==>> Surely you are hoping to gain something out of it

[07:14] CT: D ==>> I will have nothing to do with it

[07:15] AC: What could she have to gain?

[07:15] AC: There are thoughts and ideas and perspectives.

[07:16] AC: She will take what she will, but it is not to be hoarded.

[07:16] AC: Like a stinky miser who is bad at being a liar.

[07:16] CT: D ==>> The musk is natural

[07:16] AC: She KNOWS natural musk!!!! She is more natural than he! He is like steel and wires and oil!

[07:17] CT: D ==>> Thank you

[07:17] AC: bleh. :xx

[07:18] CT: D ==>> This is ridiculous

[07:19] AC: h33h33!

[07:24] CT: D ==>> ...

[07:24] CT: D ==>> You are still here

[07:24] CT: D ==>> Why

[07:24] AC: Why should she go?

[07:24] AC: She has her magical box full of pictures that makes words.

[07:25] CT: D ==>> Calling it magic is preposterous

[07:25] AC: It is glorious magic!

[07:25] AC: Mystery!

[07:26] CT: D ==>> It is science

[07:26] CT: D ==>> However, I assume from your perspective that if you cannot eat it then it must be the craft of witches

[07:27] AC: Do not speak of witches! They hear you.

[07:27] AC: They see through their spheres.

[07:28] CT: D ==>> I will crush their spheres beneath my fist

[07:28] AC: It is magic! That is too risky!

[07:30] CT: D ==>> Neigh

[07:32] CT: D ==>> I am unfazed by heathan magicks

[07:32] AC: Neigh???

[07:33] AC: >:OO

[07:33] CT: D ==>> Nay

[07:33] AC: purrhaps it is because he cannot be saddled!!!

[07:39] CT: D ==>> ...

[07:40] AC: How could she pawsibbly concede?

[07:41] CT: D ==>> Because meowbeasts eat tongues and do not hold them

[07:41] CT: D ==>> It is simply logic

[07:41] AC: She only eats other tongues.

[07:44] CT: D ==>> She absorbs the words of others and hacks them forth like spheres of fur and spit onto the shoes of trolls who would much rather do without

[07:44] CT: D ==>> Life was perfectly blissful beforehand

[07:45] AC: He is now the worst liar of all.

[07:47] CT: D ==>> Behold

[07:47] CT: D ==>> The likeliness I would care

[07:47] CT: D ==>> It is void

[07:48] AC: And yet!

[07:48] AC: This is not a denial!

[07:48] AC: :oo

[07:51] CT: D ==>> I have braced harsher titles

[07:55] AC: She will give him many, then.

[07:57] CT: D ==>> Fine

[07:57] CT: D ==>> May my e%terior be weathered by tiny claws

[07:57] CT: D ==>> If this be my fate, then so be it

[07:59] AC: !!!

[07:59] AC: :DD

-- centurionTrucidator [CT] is now an idle chum! --

[08:12] CT: D ==>> Ugh

[08:13] CT: D ==>> And here you remain

[08:22] AC: She always remains.

[08:23] CT: D ==>> So she does

[08:24] AC: She is eternal. She is like the sun and the stars both.

[08:25] CT: D ==>> No need to be hasty

[08:30] AC: She will do it ANYWAYS!

[08:32] CT: D ==>> Meowbeasts do not actually possess nine lives, despite the superstition

[08:32] CT: D ==>> Feline-inclined trolls even less

[08:32] AC: It is far more than nine!

[08:46] CT: D ==>> It is only one

[08:47] AC: million!

[08:48] AC: THOUSAND.

[08:48] AC: she will NEVER DIE.

[08:50] CT: D ==>> Well I suppose if it is out of pure spite, it's likely

[08:51] AC: :DD

[08:55] AC: :33

[08:55] AC: She is very pleased.

[08:55] AC: And she has other things to do!

[08:55] AC: So she will be leaving him.

[08:55] CT: D ==>> Do not let me keep you

[08:55] CT: D ==>> Begone

[12:17] AA: -aradia is walking d0wn the hall back t0 her pretty much useless bl0ck at this current m0ment in time.-

[12:17] AC: -There is a cat that seems to have fallen asleep in an unusual place.-

[12:18] AC: -That place being... the door in front of Aradia's block.

[12:18] AA: -0h. well, in that case, she kn0ws fr0m her late lusus that picking up a slumbering creature is a terrible idea, and it's an acti0n that w0uld warrant a swift kick t0 the face. s0 instead, she just stands a few feet away.-

[12:18] AA: hell0

[12:19] AC: -The cat doesn't really move. She rolls over a little bit.- Mrrrrr... rrrrrrr...

[12:21] AA: hell0 y0u are in my way

[12:22] AC: Rrrrrrror. mrh. -She swats at the robot's foot.-

[12:23] AA: -she stares d0wn at her- this is my bl0ck

[12:24] AA: it is useless but i w0uld appreciate it if y0u m0ved 0ut 0f the way

[12:24] AC: This is her floor now.

[12:24] AA: is it just this patch 0f fl00r 0r the entire gr0und paneling 0f the ship

[12:25] AC: It is everywhere she sees. Everywhere the light from the cieling touches. Everywhere she surveys.

[12:26] AA: h0w d0es 0ne c0me int0 p0ssessi0n 0f an entire fl00r

[12:27] AC: Prrr. How does one come into posession of a space? A meaningless space, traveling through the universe on a small metal box?

[12:29] AA: y0u d0nt

[12:29] AA: it has the illusi0n 0f being y0urs but it is n0t y0urs

[12:29] AC: Then how does she say it is her room? That it is only hers?

[12:29] AC: How does she even know that the way is blocked, if hers is a different way entirely?

[12:30] AA: i need t0 get inside

[12:30] AA: i have a key

[12:30] AA: 0r a c0de

[12:30] AA: the c0de is the key

[12:30] AC: Why does she need? What does she need?

[12:30] AC: -She sniffs at Aradia, rising to her feet to sniff against her metal exoskeleton.-

[12:31] AA: -she d0esn't react hardly at all.-

[12:31] AA: i just want time t0 myself inside there

[12:32] AC: Prrr. Is that what she needs?

[12:32] AC: Time?

[12:32] AC: To sit alone, to think the same thoughts she thinks?

[12:33] AC: -She rubs her face up against the metal.-

[12:40] AA: n0 i d0nt need anything

[12:43] AC: She says that she needs to get inside. She says she wants to be alone.

[12:43] AC: But she does not believe either of these things.

[12:43] AC: That is what she tells her.

[12:53] AA: i am a r0b0t

[12:53] AA: i d0 n0t have needs

[12:54] AC: She thinks, no?

[12:54] AC: She feels?

[12:54] AC: She is.

[12:54] AC: She lives.

[12:54] AC: Does she have a heart that beats?

[12:54] AC: Does she bleed?

[12:59] AA: yes and yes but als0 n0

[01:00] AA: the heart is n0t my 0wn

[01:00] AA: i d0 n0t bleed but i have bl00d

[01:03] AA: i have already died

[01:03] AC: Yes.

[01:13] AA: are y0u telling me that i d0nt want t0 be al0ne

[01:15] AC: Rrrr.

[01:15] AC: Am I?

[01:15] AA: i think y0u are

[01:15] AC: Does she think this is true?

[01:15] AC: Perhaps what she is saying is that she wants to want.

[01:16] AA: that is n0t entirely inaccurate

[01:17] AC: Prrrrr. What does she think?

[01:17] AA: that i need t0 get int0 my bl0ck

[01:18] AC: She says she needs again.

[01:18] AC: Rrrr, she cannot think straight, can she?

[01:25] AA: n0

[01:25] AA: i cant

[01:26] AC: ...It must be difficult for her.

[01:26] AA: that is an understatement

[01:26] AA: but yes

[01:27] AC: -She purrs and rubs her face up against hers.-

[01:27] AA: -she d0esn't flinch, she just stands there-

[01:27] AA: y0u resemble an friend i had that i havent sp0ken t0 in a while

[01:27] AC: Does she?

[01:28] AA: yes

[01:28] AC: Who?

[01:38] AC: Prr. She knows this one.

[01:39] AA: d0 y0u see the resemblance

[01:50] AA: it is imp0ssible t0 miss

[01:50] AC: :33

[01:56] AA: what is attractive ab0ut this sp0t

[01:56] AC: She likes it.

[02:01] AA: h0w is it any different

[02:01] AC: Perhaps she needs to sit with her to see.

[02:02] AA: -aradia sits d0wn right then and there-

[02:02] AA: i d0nt see a difference

[02:02] AC: -Disciple CATS right on her lap.-

[02:09] AA: h0w is that c0mf0rtable f0r y0u

[apostolicchronicler-blog]

-- apostolicChronicler [AC] began trolling centurionTrucidator [CT] at 01:22 --

[01:23] AC: -Someone better be aware, there is a cat on the prowl tonight. She is very quietly stalking the halls, slinking close to the walls. She sniffs and shuffles, nearly silent.-

[01:25] CT: D ==>> *She should be careful as well. An old horse officer is patrolling said hallways in a haze of distraction. He is probably brainstorming over possible ways he could apporoach a prosthetic for Mindfang's eye. He's not likely to notice her right away though... A lot of weird things happen on this ship, didn't it?*

[01:26] AC: -She GASPS. But not that dramatically, because she's still quietly stalking. She still wasn't supposed to be seen by this particular individual, leaping all the way up to the cieling and clinging to it. SECRETLY.- (Hsssss.)

[01:29] CT: *What a powerful jump. In another life, Darkleer would have certainly appreciated it but for now, it happens behind him and he has no idea why the sensation of a presence is prickling the hairs on the back of his neck. He pauses at the hiss, his shoulders squaring as he went still.* ........

[01:30] AC: -Oh, she's noticed. Nevermind the quietness.-

[01:30] AC: HSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

[01:30] AC: -Much better.-

[01:32] CT: *He has heard that hiss before and his blood runs cold, his throat closing with one emotion-- fear.*

[01:32] CT: How long has it been *he asks, his knee caps locked.*

[01:33] CT: *He can't even bring himself to face her.*

[01:33] AC: Rrrrrrr.

[01:33] AC: It has been.

[01:33] AC: She knows to the very second, but it does not matter to her, and it should not matter to him.

[01:33] AC: She is not supposed to fight him. The Lover said so, and she would ignore it, but the Mother said so, too.

[01:40] CT: You presume a fight is what I desire *closes his eyes as he wills himself to calm and not believe that the walls were enclosing him in place. She was a simple troll and not the creature haunting his night-terrors and slinking in the shadows on his mountain prison. His face begins drip with prespiration.*

[01:40] AC: HISSSSSSS.

[01:41] AC: -She leaps off of the cieling to STOMP up to him.-

[01:41] AC: She would THINK so.

[01:41] AC: He has threatened.

[01:41] AC: Chased.

[01:41] AC: He has done MUCH.

[01:41] AC: -CAT IS GETTING PRETTY WORKED UP. If she were sweating, then she'd be literally steaming, but she's only doing it figuratively.-

[01:42] CT: *The panick spikes as he hears her feet hit the ground and suddenly she's in front of him. The lump in his throat works furiously and he can't remember how to form words.* .......

[01:43] AC: -She's possibly half his size. If you're counting width, even smaller than that. She's all UP in his business, though. Or at least. Like. His waist.-

[01:43] AC: What does it have to say for itself? Does it have any words of value?

[01:48] CT: No *he says, his breath short and his legs feeling as if they are going to buckle underneath him* No, I do not

[01:50] AC: IS HE ASHAMED OF WHAT HE DID???? -Oh this is just emboldening her to scold further.-

[01:52] CT: No *She might see it as scolding but she is the living embodiment of every malicious word he had beaten into himself for so long. The eyes that chained him to the circling pit of his despair these past 7 centuries.*

[01:54] AC: Rrr. Why does he not look at her?

[01:57] CT: *His heart thuds. He wishes it would quiet. End.* I cannot

[01:57] AC: Is he...

[01:57] AC: Afraid?

[01:57] AC: Rrr...

[02:00] CT: *His fear fragmented down into utter disgust with himself, despair, and worst of all. Nothing.* Yes

[02:01] AC: -Well, she is a cat, and thus considers herself nightmares incarnate. But that softens her somewhat.- Does he think he will be hurt? No, he cannot think that, can he?

[02:07] CT: *Darkleer would prefer the hurt to the surge of void eating him from the inside out. This great lump of troll, so strong, so proud was in truth, nothing. Her softening feels perverse and wrong, his whole being repulsed by it. By himself. His jaw slacks but no words come out.* ....

[02:08] AC: -She presses a paw(hand) to his chest. She's touch his cheek, but she literally cannot reach that high.-

[02:09] AC: She wishes for answers. She cannot fight if there is no one to fight.

[02:11] CT: D... *The hand on his chest sears deep into his core. He flinches visibly and steps backwards.* Please

[02:12] AC: He answers her. One question. He answers her. Will he do this thing?

[02:14] CT: ... *His expression is pained but he nods, not looking at her.*

[02:14] AC: She would have asked him why, why he is here, why he hunted. But she will ask instead.

[02:14] AC: Why did he not?

[02:14] AC: He could have. He knows this.

[02:26] CT: *He could lie to himself, he could lie to the Grand Highblood, to the thousands of people who asked and who will ask him the same damned question. He could live that way for centuries and never think about it. Darkleer could not... lie to her. His tongue was dry as he spoke.* Before she spoke... it had never crossed him that... he did not have to

[02:26] CT: And he did not *he muttered, the wetness on his face tinged with a single rolling strand of blue*

[02:29] AC: -That indignity and rage seemed to bubble away, eyes locked on the tear trailing down his cheek.- He is not alone. He is not the only one who thought this. Does he know that, too?

[02:30] CT: No

[02:30] AC: It is true.

[02:30] AC: She did not know, either.

[02:33] CT: *he shakes his head and turns from her, a hand coming to his bowed face* It matters not

[02:33] AC: That is not true. No.

[02:35] CT: Yes. For a long time, it has not mattered *might be swaying on his feet a bit, dangerous for a troll like him* You must go

[02:35] AC: Rrr. It is a lie. A lie that he must. That she must. That they must.

[02:39] CT: It is not for my sake, Disciple but your own *He doesn't even know what he's saying anymore, he was not himself and he was not a person. Depersonalized and blind.*

[02:40] AC: She will decide what is for her own sake.

[02:40] CT: *He is already stumbling off, barely registering a word she said.*

[02:41] AC: -She chases after him for a few steps.- Wait! Listen! He must listen!

[02:42] CT: There is no point *whispers, almost to himself under his breath* Does she not understand

[02:42] CT: Leave me be

[02:42] AC: Rrrrrrrrr. She understands. She knows. It is not better to be alone.

[02:43] CT: It is my preference

[02:43] AC: She can help.

[02:44] CT: She has done all that she has needed

[02:45] AC: She does not AGR33!

[02:49] CT: *hands come up to his temples and he wishes to claw the skin he finds there* What would she hope to accomplish *he snarls*

[02:49] CT: If she does not leave, he will make her

[02:51] AC: Rrrr. If she goes. What will change?

[02:55] CT: *Nothing. He knows nothing will change but he still does not answer her. Or look at her, or acknowledge her in any way as he stalks off. The damage has been done. He is broken and has been since the day he was hatched.*

[02:56] CT: *He walks and is gone.*

[02:56] AC: -Huffs. He's already gone, and she's feeling riled up again, but for a different reason.-

Tarantism: 

Zungzwang: Her problem is a problem of balance.  She can’t really focus on being an ambassador, caring for her family, and being the kind of person that she wants to be all at once, and she knows how serious the consequences can be if she doesn’t keep all of the plates spinning.  This is always a problem, but it’s just made all the worse by the rumors that the Condescension may be returning.  If that happens, Lauctis is definitely going to suffer.

Recumbentibus: Her GREATEST VICTORY?  Founding a planet, and being the first to awaken.  She’s a leader, in spirit and in action, and she is immensely proud that a safe haven like her home can survive.
