doves and ravens fly the same
"Now that I find hard to believe." Statements of fact, Vesper thought Niki was probably quite generous with, and if those statements happened to be positive, what of it? Compliments, though? Things said to praise or admire? He figured the necromancer was probably used to restricting that kind of vocabulary to items or ideas, rather than people.
"Oh I see, get me hooked on one set and then casually suggest another. Not bad." Even if the idea had been Vesper's originally and he saw nothing in Niki's mind to suggest this part of some grand scheme, it was amusing to suggest it regardless. Grinning crookedly, Vesper is forced to refill his cup of tea, before placing the pads of his fingertips against the porcelain to warm them. Issues with height and circulation were never an issue in Torchline, but here? Fuck if his fingers and toes weren't constantly cold.
"Seems to me like there's probably lots of things you don't do well." The demigod points out conversationally. "At least in Torchline there ain't a single void critter or magical forest tryin' to slow you down." No fucking snow, either. "But if it's that much of an inconvenience..." Waving a hand dismissively, Vesper takes a small sip of his tea, lip curling at how weak it was now. "I guess if you'd rather risk the lives of two young girls in a place their Dad was just murdered in 'cause you're worried about the sand, I could try and get 'em up here..." Of course both Caly and Nova would jump at the chance to venture to the Greatwood; still, as only a fledgling demigod in a region neither ruled nor controlled by his mother or father, Vesper didn't like the idea of trying to keep both girls safe somewhere completely new.
Hopefully he could just guilt Niki into coming safe. Easier to manage a cripple than two explosive women.
