The number '128' is my favorite number (it's Nick's birthday).
So....
ITL!!
Whoaaaa...
"What you’re feeling, ieoreapieale, is empathy. You identify with Kailoe’s pain. You felt, through him and with him, what he felt for Orinakin throughout their relationship. Kailoe’s entire world crashed to the ground when Orinakin left him. You’re the greatest Kailoe scholar there ever was, you’ve studied him extensively, you know what a tremendous impact all of this had on him. You were there with him last night when Orinakin left, you felt his misery and sorrow, and now, this morning,” Anosukinom smiled, “you’re sad.”
Awe. I'm not sure how I'd react if I were to live such a moment of sorrow. I think I'd wake up crying. That Xio Voe feels sad means that the 'emotional trauma' was very severe indeed.
And why is it that you've deprived us of seeing Anosukinom dress Xio Voe? Hmmm?
(losing myself in the smileys there!!!)
Xio Voe really thought that it was the gods who were making him sad? I thought he was well-versed in psychology? Was I wrong? Ok, ok, moving on.
“Then you would agree that ‘tears are the water which wash pain away and cleanse the wound,’”
YES!!!!
But it sometimes takes a huge amount of tears to wash certain wounds.
Like he was compelling, and handsome, and sexy.
...... he is... Silly Anosanim.
Hey! I personally
orange. I have several shirts and sweaters in that color *nod* Though right now I'm just entirely wearing Talin, but still.
“I credit you,” Ritek said, knuckles brushing along his jaw, “with revolutionizing the color. It hasn’t looked the same to anyone since you were born.”
Rejecting Ritek’s love would be unthinkable. But Anosanim also couldn’t return it, not yet.
Well, maybe, but that's okay. You can love him later. Don't you dare reject him!
“It’s time for me to share part of my life with you.”
SQUEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, in a nutshell, Xio Voe finds Anosukinom exciting... correct? Glad we've cleared this up
“Okay,” he admitted, as Orinakin began to laugh, “I’m nosey and I like to know everything about you and how you spend your day.”
You're his husband, it's only normal.
“There’s no evidence to suggest that Erhan Crowe’s theory has any relevance to reality,” Xio Voe said. “It sounds nice to people in search of easy economic answers, but none of it’s ever been proven. Whereas Stevnet Likke’s alternative exists in modern-day Vafiance as a lesson to us all.”
Matthew... where do you come up with this stuff? Not to say that it's not brilliant, but.... *mines your mind*
Kudorin pushed Remin towards him. “Tell Xio Voe what you think of Eleis’s work on the Hergren Hunersjit.”
Where did Remin come from?!?!?!?!?!?! Hi, Remin!!! *swallows*
When's the gold book?
Esanoto. He should’ve guessed. Of course it would rain during the festival of the god of the weather.
lmao. Ya know, Esanoto must have been ticked off yesterday cause he gave us a blizzard, and today my nose is stuffy and my throat is sore! *sniffle*
Oooohhhh The Okanoti Festival!! That's going to be AMAZING!!!! Yay for International Magical Cooperation!!!!!
Wait... sorry.... had a dream about HP last night (don't ask).
Yay for international cooperation!!!
The group from Rumadek won’t be able to make it to the festival. Something about a fire. No loss of life, as I understand it, but they won’t be here in time.” He frowned, then added, “Anosukinom hopes that you’ll be able to find a replacement in time. He’d hate for there to be an empty booth on the day of the festival.”
Subtle, you say? This is a little more international cooperation than I think most people are ready for. But... a challenge!
Which was also an important factor. Because every time Xio Voe made a good point, Kudorin started touching himself. And every time Kudorin said something unexpected, Xio Voe inhaled. That inhalation was so subtle, Remin hadn’t noticed it, at first. But then it had caught his attention, and it had reminded him of something. Of someone.
*squeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa* SEE? SEE??? He's in love with him already!

Did we just get an insight into one of Remin's sexual performances?
Remin wondered if they’d have wasted their time talking at all, if they’d been able to fuck.
Two sentences in, Bade was baffled. Four sentences in, he was horrified. By the sixth sentence, he wondered if Anosanim had fallen and hurt his head in some way. Had he forgotten who Talin was? Had he forgotten who he himself was?
I knew Bade would feel that way, rotfl. Which makes perfect sense.
Awe, Anosanim... of course you belong there. You can just be a sheep instead of a goat.
HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE CANNOT... HE JUST... SUEEEEE!!!! kick Xio Voe for me! He just called Selorin... he just said that Selorin wasn't his intellectual peer!!!!The kind that came to him when calm clarity fell upon him, just before he verbally eviscerated lying witnesses, unethical lawyers, and the worst criminals. It probably wouldn’t make Xio Voe cry or wet himself, two of Selorin’s favorite responses in the courtroom, but it was still going to be fun.
Remind me to never piss off Selorin.
“And he’s expert on them enough to have bred them, but too good to actually show up for the meeting, so I’m the one left running the meeting. Because I’m just a dumb farmer without anything better to do with my time. I’m not busy running the fucking country while he’s waving his dick around under Kudorin’s nose.”
Also remind me to never piss of Desin.
The royal high priest, however, had no such qualms. “Kudorin,” he said, and pushed Anosukinom’s hand aside. “Have sex with yourself later.”
Well now... that's a good ending to this chapter... yikes?
Thanks, Matthew, for another wonderful Saturday morning!
Liz - Anosanim's going to be fine after he talks to Talin.
