[VOICE POST]

[Unintelligible muttering resolves into what is clearly a prayer; the words come and go in clarity as he continues.]

In the name of all the gods ... for Great Pas, for Divine Echidna, for Scalding Scylla-- for, for... ah...
...Highest Hierax, and Fierce Phaea... no, that isn't... O Tenebrous Tartaros...

And in the name of all lesser gods; and the Outsider... why have you...

where... Doctor Crane? Mn... Hy--

No...


[ooc: He's been released by Mohinder, but he's still a bit woozy-- plus, since he hasn't done any of the deity tributes due to rebelliousness / being kept as a snack, he's suffering bouts of disorientation and memory loss. All replies will def. be voice~ and um. only questionably coherent. ILU.]

Silk?

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Silk! Where are you?

[silk_for_calde]

I dreamed I was in the grave again; deep where the deadcoach couldn't make its way through the ash, and the beasts they call gods mauled the heels of the horses. And Hyacinth, oh--

I don't know-- I... I'm not certain where I've been, or who...

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Silk I'm coming to find you!

[wintersking.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't go alone, Lu. I'll come.

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

All right! Thank you, Edmund!

[silk_for_calde]

All right, Nettle... But be careful... I dreamed of Teasel's devil again; his dark eyes... oh...

[ooc: spam?~ :D]

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

I'm on my way!

[ooc: Sure! Where is he?]

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

[Silk has finished his prayers-- the Pardon of Pas, or as near as he could come in his bewildered state, for the others left with him in the lobby of Building 8. For himself, if Hierax comes for him. He's found his way out of the building, a blanket clutched around his shoulders, face pale and eyes wide. That's as far as he's managed to make it, and now he's leaning against the face of the building, utterly lost.]

Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

[Lucy is running - she's looked everywhere for him these past days and it finally took her here, to where he is, with a blanket. She has her cordial at her side]

Silk! Silk!

[She runs to him and puts her arms around his shoulders]

Action~

[wintersking.livejournal.com]

[Ed tags along- mostly for Lucy's sake, to keep her safe. But when he does get there with her, he looks away to give them a little bit more privacy and to not intrude too much. He's there for help, if they need it, but otherwise he isn't getting involved.]

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

Nettle-- no...

[He blinks at her for a moment until it clicks; the whorl with no skylands and false gods, the City.]

Lucy.

[He manages a bright grin, as reassuring as he can seem under the circumstances, still somewhat dazed.]

Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm Lucy.

[She helps him sit up a bit more]

We need to get you home.

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

Of course... Thank you, Lucy.

[Silk pulls himself to his feet with her assistance, leaning on her shoulder to steady his stance.]

I... don't know what happened.

[He glances over his shoulder at the building.]

Re: Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

I don't know either.

[She glances at Ed, and then back at Silk]

I can find out. Do you need some Cordial? I brought some! I thought maybe if you were hurt...

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

[He smiles, shakes his head a bit.]

I'm not hurt-- only a little weak. I feel like I've been-- asleep; as though I spent days in fever-dreams. The fresh air helps, some.

[He pulls the blanket a little closer; he has his robes, but no coat. Silk follows her glance and notices Edmund for the first time, and nods a greeting out of reflexive politeness.]

Action~

[wintersking.livejournal.com]

[Ed gives a nod back, still hanging back until they need him]

We should get him home, Lu.

Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

[She nods]

All right. Lets go.

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

All right.

[Silk shifts his weight, using Lucy as support a bit less than he has been.]

I'm in Building...

[He freezes, as his mind fails him again.]

Action~

[wintersking.livejournal.com]

Here, let me.

[If Silk needs to lean on someone, it should be him, with Ed being taller and all. He takes Silk's arm and throws it around his neck, which would allow him to lean on Ed more.]

Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

[She looks up, and then up at Edmund]

Lets walk to the Square. Maybe you'll remember there.

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

[He leans gratefully against Ed's shoulder, though he is feeling a bit better already.]

Thank you. You must be... Lucy's brother?

[It's the best guess he can manage. He nods at the girl's suggestion, hoping his faulty memory is jogged by the sights.]

Action~

[wintersking.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm Lu's brother. I'm Edmund Pevensie, and you're...Patera Silk?

[He nods back to Lucy and begins to walk towards the square, with Silk still leaning against him. Hopefully they can get his memory back, in any case.]

Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

[She's helping too]

Well. Do you remember which way to your house?

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

I am. Thank you, Edmund, and it's a pleasure to meet you-- though I wish it were under better circumstances

[He purses his lips, glances around him as they come into the square.]

This way, I think...

[Silk gestures broadly in the direction of Building 2; the surroundings are familiar enough, though he can't think about it clearly.]

Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

[She starts taking him that way]

It'll be all right.

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

[He takes her hand with a smile.]

I know; I'm only a little tired, I'm certain I'll feel better once I've eaten and rested.

[His brow creases with mild concern.]

How long have I been-- gone?

Action~

[lionesscouchant.livejournal.com]

[She squeezes his hand, then scrunches his nose up]

I'm not altogether sure.

Action~

[silk_for_calde]

I was out walking, and... I don't know. I think I may have been given some sort of a philtre.

Thank you, Lucy, for finding me.

[taptaptap]

Hello?

voice;

[silk_for_calde]

Hello? Where-- who are you?

1/2 [voice]

[unkindnessof.livejournal.com]

-- Silk.

[voice]

[unkindnessof.livejournal.com]

Are you hurt? Tell me where you are.

[voice]

[silk_for_calde]

Ah--

It's all right, I'm only... a little dizzy. Lucy has come for me.

[voice]

[unkindnessof.livejournal.com]

Lucy? Is she alone? Your current location, wherever it is, might not be entirely safe.

[voice]

[silk_for_calde]

I think we're all right... I haven't seen Oreb... no, what am I saying? Of course, he isn't here.

I don't understand what has happened, here.

voice;

[orderonto]

Silk...

Are you going to be alright? I never--

voice;

[silk_for_calde]

Suresh?

I can't... I don't recall what happened...

voice;

[orderonto]

I've done something horrible to you.

voice;

[silk_for_calde]

I... feel as though I ought to know; but I can't remember anything.

...Do you wish to be shriven? I don't know what more I ought to say..

[doujin-dork.livejournal.com]

Mister Silk?

pardon his disorientation >_>

[silk_for_calde]

Teasel? I-- I saw it...

Of course, now if you don't mind, I'll be witty in the subject line. Teasel=a teasing weasel.

[doujin-dork.livejournal.com]

Silk?

[silk_for_calde]

Yes-- I'm all right; I'm just a little..

Hiyori, you're Hiyori, of course. I'm sorry, I thought--

[doujin-dork.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's Hiyori. You thought what?

[silk_for_calde]

I thought you were-- someone else. My mind... comes and goes...

[doujin-dork.livejournal.com]

What happened?

[silk_for_calde]

I have no idea.
