THOR.

Please know that I have a lot more oranges to peel, by the way, if you want me to sit next to you again in silence.

ELI GRIMSBANE.

~~I can be good cop, not bad cop~~ Hello. My name's Wanda and I'm with the DOA's magic department. I've got some questions for you, if you've a moment?

	Oh shit am I under arrest? Regina's my lawyer but she doesn't know it. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I hear she's a good one to have, but this isn't some kind of [...] official interrogation where you're under oath. We are doing some investigating, though. What brought you to use the Outlander network, if you don't mind my asking? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda grimsbane 2024-01-04 06:21 pm UTC (link)
	Whatcha investigating? When Ankou decided to open up to Outlanders, Bran, Jory and I got picked to be liaisons. We all ended up getting busy with other shit and then I got stuck in the fae realm, when I came back with two new friends in tow I gave Caroline some puppy dog eyes cause you're all pretty & fun.

	Suspicious coven activity that may affect Outlanders. I did hear you were missing for a few months. You were in the fae realm all that time? There have been a few fae on the network before - they weren't fans of us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Eli/Wanda grimsbane 2024-01-04 06:52 pm UTC (link)
	Ooooooooh the stuff from the coven meeting? Are people necromancing Outlanders and I'm missing it? Yeah, I went down for a party, got stuck in a life debt. It was probably meant to be or something. I remember the ones on the network and stuck in the maze thing? One of them was Cayden's sister but most of them are total assholes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda scarlets 2024-01-04 06:54 pm UTC (link)
	We don't know. But your mother is a Beketh leader, isn't she? I take it your Cayden isn't one of those assholes. He seems polite. ~~And none of you have started anything with~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda grimsbane 2024-01-04 07:03 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah but if you're fishing for info about my mom, you're barking up the wrong tree. She left us for Beketh and we're not close with her, I think she's more embarrassed than proud of me. Nope, he's pretty much the best of them. Bastard prince and all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda scarlets 2024-01-04 07:08 pm UTC (link)
	Is there any sort of relationship between Ankou and Beketh, then? I'm still trying to figure out what their 'unethical necromancy' might have been, and if the people that were accused had any issues with Outlanders and our presence. And on that note, were there any grumblings about us in the fae realm? Or would that more of a question for Cayden? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Eh, working relationship? I think we're nicer and Beketh is a lot more sus about us, but we cover some of the same ground and we're a lot more open with people than Beketh and their love of secccccrets~~~. Usually, unethical necromancy would be like- the gross shit? Or puppeting without permission. Raising an army? You want me to bug her and ask?

From what I heard, they talk shit about pretty much EVERYBODY up here, not just Outlanders?

If you're interested in helping us, please do. Wouldn't hurt. We are in contact with the two covens that had the accusations pop up and we're hoping for more information. Overall, we're suspecting that a lot of what's been happening are linked but we don't know how or why.

I hope that shit talk is spread across everyone equally, then, and not enough for them to work with anyone that might be targeting us.

	If it is, I haven't heard about any big conspiracy. But I also had a thing with an Outlander just a few weeks after getting on the network so I doubt I'm on any trustworthy lists outside of Ankou. ~~Cayden's always a tar~~ Cayden's probably good for asking about that part, who'd be doing the targeting. Del will tell you it's all of them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda scarlets 2024-01-04 09:30 pm UTC (link)
	A 'thing'? [...] And who is Del in relation to the fae, if Cayden is a prince? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda grimsbane 2024-01-04 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	Lance and I were friends with many benefits for a few months. The fae captured Del and turned him human as a (wrongful) punishment ~~with Ankou's help and~~, he's been assigned to fae to keep an eye on him since then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda scarlets 2024-01-04 09:44 pm UTC (link)
	~~That is new goss~~ I see, on both fronts. I'd like to talk to Cayden to see if there's anything he may have heard if possible. And if you're on good terms with your sisters, would they be trusted to keep an ear out for anything suspicous? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda grimsbane 2024-01-04 09:48 pm UTC (link)
	Sure, want me to give him a heads-up first? I trust them more than I trust anybody. Jory's the best for getting people to slip and give stuff up without realizing it, but Bran's got the best connections and she's scarier to talk to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda scarlets 2024-01-04 10:04 pm UTC (link)
	If you don't mind? Then they'd be valuable to us if they're willing to lend a hand. I am always willing to pay in favors if they need help from a reality-warping chaos witch. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eli/Wanda grimsbane 2024-01-04 10:38 pm UTC (link)
	Done. He's a little worried about shit coming back on us so you might have to make some assurances or something first. Oh shit if favors are involved I'm totally in. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	What's the point when either way in the end, we're alone? I'll keep my promise and I'll keep loving Love, but I can't let another Jacob happen again. Because before that, it was Fandral. Before that, Jane. It's too much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	WANDA/THOR. scarlets 2024-01-04 07:01 pm UTC (link)
	You have people, and I will keep reminding you of it every time you feel like you're alone. In regards to that kind of closeness to people, I understand all too well. That would be your choice and that is the same decision I've made for myself after Stephen and Vision. The memories have become enough for me. But I also hate that you feel this way, my friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	WANDA/THOR. thundering 2024-01-04 09:26 pm UTC (link)
	I know I do, which is why I feel like I'm being selfish. It's the lack of closure that truly gets me. None of it ended because we wanted it to end. I'm sorry that you have experience in this feeling. What a pair we make, huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You aren't. You lost someone you love, someone that was around you and with you for a long while here, someone you had a life with. Having them absent feels like loneliness. Is loneliness. The people we lose take pieces of us with them every time. That's not something we get back.

This place hasn't been kind to you lately. I know it's exhausting to be expected to just carry on with life after what's been taken from us.

	If it wasn't for Love, I would have left the businesses in the hands of the managers and stayed away longer. I don't want to carry on, but Vallo has never felt smaller because I can't leave and start somewhere new either. This is stifling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It's one of the crueler things about this place, isn't it? How trapped in it you can feel sometimes.

I don't want to say 'it gets better.' Or that you learn how to live with it, because you know well how loss goes - you've experienced a lot of it yourself. But if you need another person to watch Love for a little while or you want someone to sit in silence with and keep peeling fruit until there are heaps of skin from it all, you have my friendship until this place decides to get rid of us.
