FOX
"I forget half the time as well," Fox admits sheepishly, dusting off his hands and rubbing them on his pants in case of any lingering ashes. "I've only been an Ancient since just after the war. Used to be an Ascended, before that. It's a big change." He glances up at the sudden snort from the unicorn behind them, and for the first time Fox gets more than regular horse vibes from the interaction. "Companion?" he guesses.
Humming an affirmative and reaching out as the water starts to bubble, Fox watches it closely until he's satisfied with the boil and takes the pot off the heat to add the coffee grounds. "There did, yeah. Pretty sure it relocated to Halo, though." Like all the good shit the Grounds had, it left to go elsewhere eventually. People, guilds, even rulers. And there's that bleeding heart again. (Or maybe it's a bitter one).
"The ache in your ears," he adds emphatically on the subject of the cold and where it hurts. "Don't think I've ever wrapped up so warm as last Deepfrost, and it's nowhere near as cold in the Grounds as elsewhere." And because he'd spoken about it just a second ago, "You ever end up as far up as Halo?"
