A cauldron deeper than the height of two men?! [ Sonia becomes much more alert at that, her eyes lighting with excitement, then-- ] Did you ever put men inside it?!
[ I'm so sorry... yet if that's the comparison you are going to give... this is what you are going to get. ]
Though I admit I am a little surprised by that, I have received a few things from them since my arrival. I now have an AK-74M gun and a katana that I can use. Though Haise is correct, there may be a way to make something.
[She replies honestly enough, moving back to continue putting together her files. ... Most recently two people poisoned by the very miasma she'd unwittingly created, but she didn't feel the need to explain so deeply as that.
... She was a bit surprised to hear Sonia say a gun and a sword, but. To ask would make her seem more open to converdation in the moment, wouldn't it, so Sieglinde bites back the curious instinct and instead grabs a last manila folder.]
Those are handheld items- they are more free the smaller the item in my experience.
[Finally turning back, she holds out the small stack of papers, containing notes, diagrams, hypotheses, and more on Graham's condition. Her expression spoke somewhat plainly of her loathing to hand them over... but the last thing she wished was to be accused of not giving her patient the best options.]
Here. I would like these returned as soon as possible.
[It doesn't quite answer the question of what they might be able to hunt down for her, but Haise thinks better of pressing the matter. Maybe he can ask at another time, since he suspects that there's always something that might be of use, given the limited manner in which supplies are provisioned to them.
For now, he simply waits the exchange of the notes, bending to pat Isengrim's head gently again. Insofar as what might be done for Graham, there's little that he can provide. His healing abilities don't stand out among others, and his regeneration doesn't sound like the sort of thing that's needed. If his ability to recover were useful, he has no doubt that Sieglinde would have mentioned it.
But it seems something to do with magic, and that's an area in which others are far more useful]
Was it fun? [ Only Sonia is far too curious about Sieglinde's world of witchcraft, and while she does know that she isn't willing to chat, at least this is a subject close to home. It should be something she can easily fall back into, to distract herself when necessary. ]
I find it curious, however, that with the magic and science here in Oska that they have not found a way of making things appear smaller than they are. For example, a bag that could store an entire room of accessories, but appear palm sized to the normal eye. It would be rather useful.
[ Though she holds out both hands to take the files. ]
I will treat them with care, do not worry. I may just hand copy them and bring them back to you later today, if that is better?
i kept avoiding this thread because sieg is a party pooper
[So she ends up explaining it anyway, even though it was in a curt and very vague sort of way. There had been nothing fun about Sebastian showing up with his master suffering from the effects of the poison she herself had leaked into the forest.]
And I have such a bag- they exist.
[Which she normally liked to show off, honestly, but at the moment, she was more intent on her random visitors being seen off for the night.
So she just hands the files over to Sonia.]
You may return them whenever is best for you within the next two days.
no worries, if the thread's tough we can handwave or so
[Well, this is rather an uphill battle. It's not surprising, of course; Haise remembers how it was when Sieglinde's squidge refused to stop crying, but he wishes he better understood how to help. He can't simply tell her that shoving her emotions aside actually makes a person more brittle than strong, nor can he say quite a number of things that would make matters simpler.
It might be the case that he can't help at this time, much as he doesn't like admitting such a thought to himself. Still, giving up on her that easily would be doing her a disservice]
I suppose it's not surprising ALASTAIR has such innovations. Perhaps if they're interested in encouraging invention, they might make a lab accessible to our team.
[Business, it seems, might be the easiest topic to broach]
[ Sonia hasn't known her long enough to know too much about her, it's more the understanding of what her lifestyle would have been like that has her trying to get the other girl to stop being so stubborn about this.
She has to hold her tongue after that statement though, lowering her eyes to the side as she takes the files. It's more out of overstepping there than anything else. A misunderstanding of readings not being true to reality, as it may be. ]
Thank you.
it's okay sieg is a butt so it's wrapping up anyway
[As rude as she knew it could be perceived to be, Sieglinde kept her commentary short and not too sweet, not wishing to encourage any further conversation that might prompt lingering.
Or meddling in what she honestly half-knew she was doing. Drowning herself in work and little else in order to forget that she'd lost Masamune, a man who had been like a brother to her, who had been the only constant in her life since her recruitment.
So she moves to the door, clearing her throat as she opens it and gives a half-curtsy.]
In that case, feel free to discuss your theories with me at that time. Thank you both for the consideration.
