post-walter attack

[viking_seer]

Hey just checking in with you and the other Lester about the weird music. Both of you okay?

Re: post-walter attack

[lestercraft]

[The response takes a little while to come, which is probably telling. The fact that Arthur sounds exhausted when he does speak, even more so.]

Sheehan's fine, the music was John. I'm...

The music happened because I got hurt, when John found out who did it, he got- upset. To put it... mildly.

Re: post-walter attack

[viking_seer]

Sheehan gave me an update earlier.

I'm not going to make you brief me again. Just... I'm here if any of you need anything.

Re: post-walter attack

[lestercraft]

[Bless that man.]

I am-- I-I'm alright, now. Truly. John and Les are looking after me, and I've got Root's head on straight, I think. But I- I appreciate it, Saga, truly.

Re: post-walter attack

[viking_seer]

I figured.

[ Dry but fond. ]

Let me know if that changes.

[ And after a moment- ]

And if you want me to help John with getting your bachelor all set up. Like. Telling him about how it works.

[lestercraft]

Jesus--

[It's exasperated and surprised and immediately bursts into a huff of slightly dizzying laughter, but it's genuine and bright.]

Ah, I-I see Sheehan told you all our news, then.

Re: post-walter attack

[viking_seer]

Well, he had to ask me a question, now, didn't he?

[ That's a very warm smile. ]

Congratulations.

[lestercraft]

Oh-- oh, my god!

[In his defense he just got exsanguinated. And he's too tired to jump up at the news, but he's still beaming at her with another bright laugh.]

Christ, I should have realised he'd ask you for the job. That's wonderful, Saga.

Re: post-walter attack

[viking_seer]

I'm extremely honored. And don't worry: I don't mind explaining things to your other other half.

We'll take care of you.

Re: post-walter attack

[lestercraft]

I do appreciate it, genuinely. A-and I'm sure John will, too, he's never been on the planning end of something like this.

I'm almost certain at this rate it'll have to be two parties. Something smaller for ourselves, and- something where John gets to make as much food as he wants to get just how excited he is out of his system for a little while.

Re: post-walter attack

[viking_seer]

So you're using John's enthusiasm to get two parties. Arthur Lester: I hardly knew you had it in you.

Re: post-walter attack

[lestercraft]

[And Arthur laughs, bright and warm despite the exhaustion.]

Look, I've seen how overwhelmed John gets if he's excited enough, now, I want to give him the chance to- I dunno, to spread the love to more people. He deserves to get to celebrate it as much as we do.

Re: post-walter attack

[viking_seer]

And he's that excited, huh? Almost like someone special to him is having something pretty wonderful happen.
