Yes! Maybe twenty. At the oldest. Probably younger like eighteen.

[itookashot]

That's Wilhelm in Thorne. He's very sweet, he'll forgive whatever you did if you apologize.

[everybodysterrible]

Shit. We've met. As ourselves not in disguise. That makes it make a lot of sense.

I have to apologize for letting him kiss me while I was dressed as a boy and him finding out I wasn't when he grabbed my tits. What I'm saying is this'll be fucking awkward and I might need a drink and/or a cuddle after. If it goes fucking sideways.
- Abby

[itookashot]

Yeah I can see how that would be a problem, as he is very gay, and he's not fond of being tricked. He's one of my lovers and he's a good fellow, just apologize.

[everybodysterrible]

That's the plan. But I think he'll get why I was a boy when I explain- that. I just don't want to fuck this up worse while apologizing.

Done that once.

You'll find out if I fucked up if I'm siting outside your door with a bottle of cheap grain alcohol.
- Abby

[itookashot]

I'm not worried. Wille's a sweetheart. He'll hear you out.

[everybodysterrible]

I'm cautiously optimistic. Which is a huge step for me.

And probably mostly your fault.
- Abby

[itookashot]

Yes I am an eternal optimist, and I rub off on others.

August - shortly after the monsters

[sleepfan]

Hello. I want to see your book. Viktor said I need your permission.

[itookashot]

Did he! Yeah go ahead. It's technically a census of the Summoned, with some thirst details because it's funny.

[sleepfan]

Thank you. I am trying to gather information about the Summoned and their Arcanae.

Thirst?

[Even though they all can understand one another's words, Linhardt isn't sure what 'thirst' means here.]

Did you record everyone's beverage preferences?

[itookashot]

I've listed the arcana I know but not everyone has mentioned it. You could ask the group on the network too.

Nah, thirst as in I think they're sexually attractive and make notes about their good looks. It started as a lark with me and Viktor, I joked that every single Summoned was hot and he told me to make notes proving so and give it to him.

[sleepfan]

Maybe I will do so.

I see. It makes sense that Viktor claimed that the information was subjective - little is more subjective than what someone finds attractive. I am pleased you have found some way to bring joy into your life here.

Early September

[everybodysterrible]

Hey. I need a favor. Do you know a guy who can make a custom quiver. No, that's not the right word. Dispenser? For like marbles, that I can clip to my belt?

If I'm going to keep looking for trouble I should bring my own ammunition and not start scrounging rocks off the ground. Or having to pull them out of my pocket.

[itookashot]

Our argument was me stating that there are objectively hot people here, and I stand by that. Anyway, it started as a lark, but I've kept at it. I think it amuses him even if he says otherwise, he does keep all of them.

[itookashot]

You can always ask Viktor. He's the inventor around here. It'd probably take him like ten minutes.

Far be it for me to argue with the impressive Slayer of the Rancor.

[everybodysterrible]

Viktor, got it.

And it'd have been so much easier if I didn't have to scrounge for ammo. Even if I only finished it, I didn't exactly carry my weight through it.

[sleepfan]

Viktor is right, though. There is no objective measure of sexual attractiveness. It varies depending on personal taste. Unless you mean 'objectively hot' in the sense that a certain percentage of the population find someone attractive, like how almost everybody is attracted to Claude or thinks Hilda is beautiful. An aggregate measure instead of an individual one.

[Nerd.]

[itookashot]

He's the disheveled-looking guy with the cane and strange accent.

Well he's an inventor, maybe see if he has some ideas on how to work that out. I make my own ammunition but I can just reuse it over and over.

[itookashot]

Claude and Hilda are indeed very hot, you get it.

[everybodysterrible]

Guy who looks like his blood is more coffee than anything else?

I can use basically anything as ammo, marbles just seem like the cheapest thing to get ahold of and fit into a contraption. Having an exact size and easy to set-up a few before I go out. Maybe get a slingshot too, just to be that menace kid.

[itookashot]

You should have seen him before, fellow was at death's door last year.

Slingshot's not a bad idea. Everyone's got their own signature weapon, after all, and yours won't cost as much as the rest of us. Tell Viktor I'll pay for whatever it is, but he's good at this stuff.

[sleepfan]

I do.

Are you categorizing the Summoned based on looks or personality?

[everybodysterrible]

I might ask you to teach me to shoot, but I still don't know how to make a gun and my magic work together. So for now a slingshot will give me range and speed, and just flicking marbles at people accuracy.

I guess this counts as my birthday present. Alongside whatever else you plan to do with me?

[itookashot]

Both! Someone can be aesthetically pretty but ugly in personality. I'll still note the aesthetic part but give a thumbs down to them as a person.
