After John messages him per the Strange drama

[lestercraft]

I, er. Apologies for the delay on contacting you earlier. [His voice is still hoarse from misuse, but he's sounding slightly more alive than John's post makes him seem.] I just wanted to offer my congratulations on being paired with John, and- while I can't imagine he'll be particularly inclined to anything but blunt candour, if there's ever anything you'd like to ask otherwise do let me know. I often assisted in the wardening of his previous inmate, as well.

[sixfeetofdirt]

...

Not to challenge your talents for multitasking, darling, but don't you have your own inmate?

[lestercraft]

Of course. Which is why on rare occasions I will also have to borrow John to assist with Mandrake in some manner as well. Less so recently, but occasionally the use of both hands is required.

[sixfeetofdirt]

I see.

I shall endeavour to need a little less handling than that, then.

[lestercraft]

[He gives a soft huff.]

It's hardly a matter of handling. But we find that in emergency situations that we are more efficient as a team, and that means you and Mandrake will be prioritised and protected to the best of our abilities.

[sixfeetofdirt]

[you were just talking about hands!! it's literally about that!!]

Ah. So the situation is less 'I could assist in your wardening' and more 'I will assist in your wardening, should the circumstances demand'.

Understood.

[lestercraft]

[Sir you don't think he recognises your flirty doublespeak? He's playing it safe!]

Should circumstances demand, and should it not encroach on your already existent boundaries. I'm hardly looking to deny you what independence you have here on some self-serving heroic crusade.

[sixfeetofdirt]

[he wasn't flirting!! it's rare but it happens!!]

Delighted to hear it. I'll be seeing you around, I'm sure.

text, mid-Swords Curse

[deuceoftears]

you're being so DUMB just let me change your room

you don't even have to admit anything

i already know you like the generic cabins better maybe I'll just ask the admiral to match one of those. what about THAT

if you've got stuff it can keep your stuff. THIS IS A CUSTOMIZABBBEL PROCESS

stop suffering for no reason just because the barge is bad at picking starting cabins challenge

i dare you

[sixfeetofdirt]

'Customisable', but a brave effort, certainly.

Are you drunk?

[deuceoftears]

NO IM A NICE DRUNK

deflect deflect deflect look at me im astarion and i need practice setting boundaries

[sixfeetofdirt]

That's a terrible impression. My use of correct grammar and punctuation is flawless.

Also: no.

[deuceoftears]

FINE

GOLD STAR

[sixfeetofdirt]

[it's easy when he's just one of two wardens harassing about him about his fuckin cabin! just let him have his depression hole ffs]

Thank you. I think.

near the beginning of the sword curse plot

[greatoldjohn]

Okay, totally wrong about nothing happening right now.

Stay the fuck in your cabin if you can help it. Everyone is completely fucking bonkers right now.

If you need blood or something, I'll bring it.

[sixfeetofdirt]

When you may well be 'completely fucking bonkers' yourself? I don't think I'll risk it, actually.

[greatoldjohn]

Actually, it's looking like if anything, I shield people from being effected. But if that's how you feel safer, I understand.

[reformedsinner]

[immediately after this conversation]

Are you with Trevor? Can you get him to the infirmary?

[sixfeetofdirt]

I offered and he recommended that I kill him instead.

[reformedsinner]

He's an idiot. Knock him out if you have to. Can you carry him, if he's unconscious?

[sixfeetofdirt]

Unlikely, and even if I could, I wouldn't. He's disgusting.

I could drag him to the elevator.

[reformedsinner]

I could meet you at the elevator on the fifth floor and help drag him back to my room.

I believe there's room on the floor.

[sixfeetofdirt]

Not the infirmary, then? I'd imagined you might have a stretcher or two.

[reformedsinner]

I'm not helping in the infirmary at the moment because I'm also not well.

I can support myself with my powers to some degree, and I'm sensible enough not to drag myself around the ship getting in the way.

[sixfeetofdirt]

And you want your living quarters improved by the presence of this oozing lump? Very well; fifth floor it is. We'll be there shortly.
