Have a Stop

[shosen]

It's good news, isn't it? I mean, it was what I wanted, what I asked him to do.

It's just, frightening. The connection is there still, even if I've blocked it off. It's frustrating, sometimes, when I'm losing and I know that I'm stronger than that, I know it!

But I have to not be. Still, there's a strange sort of comfort in knowing that if I was in danger, real danger, I could... Not that I would, but... Well, that goes away, with this, I think.

And besides, what does he need the elf to do?

I don't know what to make of them, and it's good to know that I'm not the only one. Thrall'tukk doesn't either. I mean, some of them sneer at us, some of them scream and run away from us, and then there's that one who was lost and asked us if we were single because... well... because!

They're just, confusing. And some of the things I've seen in their city... I don't know, even if it is beautiful. And that journal we found isn't exactly comforting. I mean, I have enough problems, I don't need to cause anymore!

But she seems to know what she's doing ,and she's nice enough. Besides, I'm not alone. Tabaqui, Thrall'tukk, Doctor Vines (even though he'd rather just rip my soul out and stick it in a jar, I'm sure) they're here.

So, it's okay.

No, it isn't. Damn it. That, it hurts? No, not exactly. What is this?

I don't know what... she's, dampen, then more?

This isn't right, it--

Have to stop this; can't stop it; can't keep doing this...

Wait, what? His spell or the one that binds me here, one of them is breaking? And right, let's just keep going and watch what happens.

Damn it!

Just... stop...

Stop!

Oh no, no, no, I didn't mean that. No, I'm not doing tha-- I'm not ungrateful I'm just sca--

Ow! Okay, that did hur-- Ow, what are you-- Damn it, she's--

Just, sto--

I think they're screaming something. Aji is. I feel sort of, loose, though. This... isn't the same. I think...

Oh fuc--
