This post here is for personal conversations which should happen but one or both of us doesn't want to put up a new post/log and thus we will just thread it out here. This can be used to thread with Helios anytime and anywhere. This can either be in person (with action), or via the journal's call feature (voice and/or written).

When replying to this post please mark in the subject line when and how it is taking place EX:
[Action, March 11th]
[Voice, September 8th]
[Written, June 10th]

Thank you.

It's no trouble, Archie. I-I have no problems keeping people safe of course. And perhaps she...she might be different now? I-I don't know. It's always hard to tell when people go back home. [ He has a little hope that, that might be the case. But it's a sliver of hope and nothing more. Perhaps it's just his optimism getting the better of him again. But people can change. ]

[simplestgift]

...We shouldn't be discussing it over the journals.

[folklorist]

O-Oh! Yes. O-Of course, you're absolutely right. [ He was a little careless and absentminded at times, especially when exhaustion set in. ]

I-I'll let you get back then. Oh. A-And do be careful t-traveling at night. There's...there's d-dangerous individuals about. [ And he's not just talking about Grell either. ]

[simplestgift]

...Our woodland singer?

[folklorist]

Y-Yes I. I suppose that's correct. [ Vampire too. Not from his world, especially with the way she attacked him. He sounds concerned now. ]

You've...encountered her then? Are you, are you alright?

[simplestgift]

Fine, yes. [Scared the hell out of him, but still.]

[folklorist]

G-Good. That's, that's very good. [ Ginia wasn't so lucky unfortunately. ] I don't know her name b-but I can certainly recognize her face.

[simplestgift]

Does it somehow seem...worse, to you, when it's a woman? A woman who had this done to her, I mean?

[folklorist]

For anyone to have that d-done to them... [ Helios knew Drusilla wasn't right and that she was...something other than human. A vampire perhaps or something else. He's not sure what world she came from though. Perhaps his own, or perhaps Buffy's. He didn't know but leaving someone in such a state like that. ]

It-it's quite sad really.

[simplestgift]

...What would you do? If it happened to you?

[folklorist]

[ Helios winces. If he ever became a vampire? No. That wasn't what he was asking. If he ever became one though...he's not sure what he would do. ] I-I don't honestly know. It's...it's hard to say what a person thinks of themselves. Sh-she probably doesn't think anything is, ah, wrong. It's simply how she is. As for b-becoming what, what she was...

[ there were alternatives here at least. Human blood that's readily provided in the bar. He could live off of that. But still he's never met a person whose been changed before, not, not like how she wanted to change him. ]

[simplestgift]

...Never mind. My apologies. [He's made him uncomfortable. He can see that.]

[folklorist]

N-No there's, ah, there's no need to-to apologize. Es-Especially if there's legitimate reason to be concerned. Luceti t-tends to make itself susceptible to forcing such things on us...

[ Where anything could likely occur Helios isn't sure if something like that could be done to someone. But having someone's personality change isn't anything new for this place. A small sigh. ] Depending on if it was shift induced I...I would try to fight it, tell someone before it took over or s-simply...go somewhere else. [ Not bother anyone or hurt them. It would cause concern, yes, but if he could beat it before he became violent? He would. ] But if I couldn't? I-I think people would...would likely figure it out whether it be by my own changed personality or...my actions. I-I would hope that, that it would be obvious before I could consider any actions to t-take.
