Off they go.

As promised, the Land of Mountains sure does contain a lot of mountains! They're also all pretty tall actually, and it's hard to spot which one is the tallest - though only one of them in the vague area Five indicates has a giant castle at the peak.

Permalink

That seems a likely spot.

Zero's squinting a bit suspiciously. "Any idea where she'll be in that?" she asks Five.

Permalink

"Uh. Her rooms are at the top?"

Permalink

"So she doesn't sleep in the dungeons?"

Permalink

"They're insufficiently dramatic for brooding."

Permalink

"And much less convenient to blast open, which is a point in our favor."

Permalink

"So you wanna go in hot?"

Permalink

"It worked on you, didn't it?"

Permalink

"Four's a bit more reserved than me."

Permalink

"Truly? But you are so shy and retiring."

Permalink

"Difficult to imagine, I know."

Permalink

"Would you suggest then a different approach?"

Permalink

"...I mean, she's gonna be pissed at you no matter what you do. Four doesn't really have anything but her magic."

"But like, I've never been able to really help her? I don't judge her, but... I guess that hasn't been enough."

Permalink

"No other- hobbies or interests at all?"

Permalink

"...I don't think her and Septa egging each other into committing genocide she later lowkey hates herself over really counts? Dunno, she used to be more - like, she was interested in people, she wanted to learn about the weird technology from Cathedral City, she was always talking about nerd shit. That kinda - stopped."

Permalink

"Hm. Post-traumatic stress, perhaps."

Permalink

"No clue what's happened that could be traumatic."

Permalink

"All that genocide, perhaps."

Permalink

"Why in the world would that be traumatic? Like, it's a bit over the top, but fighting isn't bad."

Permalink

"I realize this may come as a surprise, considering your age, but not everyone thinks and reacts in exactly the same ways."

Permalink

"...Yeah I really don't get other people all that well."

Permalink

"It is a skill one can learn through experience."

Permalink

She makes a face. "Ugh. Why are they all like that?"
