[ The voice that echoes in your ear may or may not be familiar to you. It may or may not sound much like your own. ]
Off on another ill-advised journey, are we?
2. surprise! (dubious brain ghost edition)
[ A moment of boredom, inattention, injury, restless sleep...and the spectre on the edge of your thoughts is there. They perch on the nearest piece of furniture for what's probably show; the way they rest against it, they could fall right through without a single disturbance. ]
You? Idle? That's a surprise. I would have thought you'd be busy, as usual.
3. surprise! (yes, YES, THE TIGER IS OUT edition)
[ Perhaps you're simply passing time. Perhaps you're on another adventure. You could be doing one of half a dozen other things.
But one thing you know for certain is that Fray definitely should not be looking over your shoulder, or lounging at the bar, or sitting and reading, or simply Doing Anything in your vicinity away from you, manifested - made more than manifest, their existence has weight. Solid and real.
Should not - could not. But here they are anyway, in all their dubious glory. ]
3a. surprise! variant (for people who do not have fray attached to their brain)
[ It's strange to be separate, after so long...subsumed isn't the right word. They have plenty of space. But the tie that binds their existence to the person who had once picked up a job stone from a corpse, listened to his drifting words, is looser than usual.
So Fray wanders, enjoying the novelty. The touch of the wind, the sun. Hard to feel, but not impossible, if they try.
It's not so bad to have a day like this, every once in a while. Maybe they can drop in on all those friends their gracious host has, wouldn't that be funny...
Death, manifestation, all that they've been through, it's not made them any less curious. If there's a vice they share with the Warrior of Light, it's being a busybody. So they can show up simply...anywhere, far more silent than someone in full armor with a claymore has any right to be. To watch? To intervene? Simply to snoop? Fray can do all of that, it sure is fun having a physical separate form! ]
4. idk anything else i'm not your mom/dad/parent
[ This is kinda set up to be wol/xiv centric but seriously you can throw whoever the fuck at them, i'll roll with it ]

Date: 2025-07-25 01:25 pm (UTC)I'm beginning to question your commitment, Caelin...
Well, there wasn't much commitment to question if she'd never had it in the first place. She's only picked up the sword a scant few times, after all. Hardly a master of the abyss, is she? ]
Really now? I was under the impression you spent most of it punching, and doing little errands for everyone.
[ Fray is a shadowed presence just behind her, vivid enough to form the impression of someone living. What had been in that jobstone, really? ]
