I'm Eliot. I understand you've already met someone who shares a strong resemblance in name, face, and hopefully an excellent taste in vests and alcoholic beverages. Some of you have been here for some time, and I am hoping you can help me.

This isn't my first time being pulled into another world, or my second, or even third, or forth, and so on. Some of you have also been pulled into other worlds which may or may not have been purgatory like before ending up here. I'm trying to get some information on my friends? They might have mentioned a Hell Hotel? Hotel Kairos?

Paul Rovia, aka Jesus
Castiel
Claire Novak
Gretel (yes, that one)
Negan
Judith Grimes
Rowena Ravenclaw
Godric Gryffindor

Just looking to see if anyone else made it out. Any information you might have would be deeply appreciated.

[Eliot's Homeworld(s)]

So, hello. I've just spent the last two years in a semi-sentient, murderous hotel. How're things?

[Quentin Coldwater]

Jesus fuck, Q. Except not literally. Are you my Q? Were you at the hotel? Please tell me you made it out, too. I'm still in quarantine.

[Margo Hanson]

Bambi?

	Okay. Good. Discuss our sleeping arrangements? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How serious were you when we talked about maybe making the bed bigger? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~I don't really rem~~ Are you talking about inviting Fen into our bed? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Okay but when you say sleeping do you mean that literally or euphemistically? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...] I was going for literally discussing sleep. Is euphemistically something to have a conversation about? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ky+his El. behindthemask 2018-07-29 04:05 am UTC (link)
	I mean. It's just - even literal sleep will likely effect... us having sex. Because sometimes it's not planned, it's spontaneous, it's just. No. I mean, not unless you were meaning that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perhaps just a few nights a week? I don't know. [...] I just feel like I'm doing wrong by her. Is it a stupid idea? But, yes, it'll affect how things are. We can figure it out. I'm not really wanting to give up our spontaneity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No it’s not stupid, El. It just shifts things, but that doesn’t mean badly, just... it will. What does she want? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ky+his El. highkingeliot 2018-07-29 04:41 am UTC (link)
	I think we need to shift things. I haven't talked to her yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ky+his El. behindthemask 2018-07-29 04:47 am UTC (link)
	We might. [...] I've been feeling that a bit myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bambi says I placate her. I don't think she's necessarily wrong. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ky+his El. behindthemask 2018-07-29 04:54 am UTC (link)
	You placate Fen? Can I... be honest? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ky+his El. highkingeliot 2018-07-29 04:56 am UTC (link)
	[...] Yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I don't know how Fen feels. I can only speak for myself, but I feel as if we sometimes run circles around you. We're both orbiting around you, and sometimes we come into paths with each other, but it's awkward, and difficult to set the orbits because it's not... the gravity is wrong.

[...]

That is, scientifically speaking, a terrible analogy, but never mind that.

I love you. And I have a connection to you, we've promised that to each other. And I don't want to change that. She loves you, and she's married to you - you've promised that connection to each other, and I don't believe she wants to change that and I don't believe you do either. But what is less certain is how Fen and I belong together, or if we do, or what we are to each other. Maybe we shift that. Maybe the commitments aren't just to you, but to each other? If you left tomorrow, what would Fen and I be to each other? I think in some ways we'd still be tethered by that connection to you, and I don't mean that in a bad way. Nor that I would resent it at all - I do like her. I just don't know how always to relate to her.

I don't know if that makes sense.
