deerlyBeloved: elfyourself Guten Tag meine Damen und Herren! Are you looking for a dinner date who can juggle swords with both hands while charming your socks off in three different languages, before whisking you away to privacy as quick as you can say "can you really do that thing with your tail"? Are you wondering if the fur is hypo-allergenic and as soft as it looks? Do you just have something you desperately need to go down on your knees to confess? Well, this is your chance to get some answers (and maybe more)! Don't worry, this fanged but faithful fellow won't bite -- unless you want him to..

Nothing I won't get over. How did the other two get involved?

[suchmiracles]

are you always this curious?

[bluesteal]

Pretty much exclusively, yes. Does it bother you?

[suchmiracles]

a little

historically being a subject of curiosity hasn't always worked out well for me

[bluesteal]

Interest and curiosity are two different things.

[suchmiracles]

may I ask why you're so interested?

[bluesteal]

I thought I should get to know Jean-Paul's family since we're sort of related in some strange interdimensional way.

And you feel very well-rounded as a person. I can stop if it's too much. And you're welcome to return the imposition.

[suchmiracles]

what do you suggest I ask about?

[bluesteal]

I'm a (mostly) open book. The only things I tend to avoid are alleged crimes without a formal charge attached.

[suchmiracles]

alleged? interesting.

how about we take it in turns to ask questions, then? it's a quiet shift at work, perhaps I can get something useful out of this time 😉

[bluesteal]

I'm sure that depends on what you consider useful.

What's a favorite job you've worked?

[suchmiracles]

ah, that's an easy one! when I was the flier in Herr Max Getmann's Traveling Circus. though that was not so much a job as something I had to do no matter if I was allowed or not!

for you: where were you before you were here?

[bluesteal]

I was in a place called Duplicity. Before that I'd been in France.

You said the flier. Does that mean you were the only one?

[suchmiracles]

oh nein. there were others. my mentor, Sabu. and my foster sister Jimaine.

you seem to be adapting well to being here and you didn't seem surprised to be around someone like me. can I assume you have some experience with things which aren't so mundane?

[bluesteal]

Did they all enjoy it as much as you did? What was your favorite act of daring?

Also, yes, that's safe to assume. I currently live with a time-traveling telekinetic with biomechanic parts and a grumpy (but generous) disposition.

[suchmiracles]

I hope they did. I enjoyed the trapeze the most

[ Wait.

Wait.

That description sounds.. familiar.. ]

does your roommate have a metal arm by any chance

[bluesteal]

Yes! Do you know him?

[suchmiracles]

if his name is Cable then ja, I do. well, a version of him, if he isn't the one I know. I didn't realise he was here

[bluesteal]

We came here together. We have an arrangement that works for us. Mostly that I feed him and he steps in front of all the bullets that might come my way.

[suchmiracles]

that sounds very much like a situation he'd end up in

does Jean-Paul know who you're living with?

[bluesteal]

It hasn't come up. Why?

[ Have a link because of course Neal is going to send it. ]

[suchmiracles]

I think he would find it [ entertaining ] interesting

ja, that's him. how much has he told you about where he came from?

[bluesteal]

A few things, but not a lot that I'd want to share without asking him first.

How well did you know him?

[suchmiracles]

not as well as Logan does. I know his daughter a little. [ After he sacrificed himself to save her life, #justxmenthings. ] and his parents are some of my closest friends

it's.. complicated

[bluesteal]

Somehow I'm not surprised. What can you tell me about his parents?
