Ky glanced over at him irritably. “Rönn is the ‘Marrow Man’ — it’s his real name.”

"There's no such creature," he scoffed.
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik

Ky looked at him irritably. “I don’t know what to tell you if you don’t want to know the answers to the questions you ask.”

"I do, but something like that isn't plausible."

“I probably have a bruise on my arm from how hard he grabbed me this morning,” she countered. “He’s very much real. And is the only reason I’m here.”

(not me, consistently forgetting your avvie is a gif. This is like the third time I've gaslit myself about whether it's moving or not lol)

Ky glanced at him, annoyed he was keeping his 'if' -- and also not inclined in the least to help him. Or see Ronn again. "I'm sure he'll be hanging around tonight outside the wall -- you can probably sneak a peek."

(It's very subtle so I don't blame you)

(I might do so."

“Alright.” Ky shrugged and started down the hall towards her room.

(In a good way or a bad way?)

He watched her go.

(In an incredible way
Did you know time is linear?? Usually in the morning five minutes passes but I look at the clock and it's actually been like 12 minutes and then I blink and another ten minutes has passed and then suddenly I'm late for work and don't know what happened. But today time actually worked like it's supposed to and I was on time?
And I'm alert and staying on task and my brain is quiet for the first time in my life. Usually I have to caffeinate and listen to brown noise to get anywhere similar to this.
I apparently have been living life on hard mode this whole time lol)

Ky was grateful he seemed to be done harassing her, and hurried towards her room.

(I don't really have anything to add about her she's going to change and crawl in bed probably)

(Wanna go to tomorrow or to the departure? Does Ky want to talk to Jerica or her uncles?)

(hmm good question
we never did have the bonding bit with Ky and Jerica with them getting drunk and Ky dropping the Michael bombshell on the brothers -- did we still want to do that or nah?
I have a feeling the Ainsleys are probably gonna want to accompany them back to Caracal Keep to ensure they get there safely unless you had something in mind for Serpent Keep after they leave? I was a little surprised they're actually heading home so soon (not upset! I'm down for it -- just not sure what you have in mind or where my guys should end up))
