[ Hello? Watching her scurry about doing this... ]

Busy bird, aren't we?

Something seems different about you today.

[ He says this under the presumption that Robin is aware of her extra wings. ]

[sonorant]

If I were to become afflicted and use the swamp, you would be able to call the vote immediately.

[ there's no hiding these wings. she collects more parchment. ]

[recession]

That's from the swamp?

[ Jesus. ]

[sonorant]

It could be a worse side effect.

[ she'd rather this than her voice being taken away. ]

Do you have any painkillers in your kit, Daan?

[recession]

Pestilence was kind enough to grant me some on Saturday.

Would you like one?

[sonorant]

If you'd be willing....

[ she can only do so much pain masking by sheer will and idol and oak family power. ]

[recession]

Sure.

[ He'll just reach into his bag and give her a pill or two. ]

What's hurting?

[ Lungs...? You did almost drown. ]

[sonorant]

[ she takes them gratefully. ]

Thank you. My back hurts most of all.

[ she is doing her best to keep her posture.... perfect... unmoving... ]

[recession]

I only know so much about physical therapy, but acupressure does happen to be one of the areas I've learned about. Do let me know if it persists even with the painkillers.

[sonorant]

Your skills are so varied.

[ if robin were the envious type, she could be a little. instead, she thinks he's admirable and that's why he has a datable personality. ]

After those 48 hours are up, it should be more than manageable. You already know some of what I've survived.

[recession]

Only where it pertains to medical things.

Back pain and a shot to the throat are pretty different though, don't you think? I wouldn't consider them comparable.

[sonorant]

When we were assigned to the cabin, you were quite capable in getting it into shape.

[ your butler past she doesn't know about. ]

They are different, but it is the degree of pain.... the threshold of pain....

[ she is saying she can handle it. ]

[recession]

Oh... sure, but it's not that hard to dust and clean things? I more or less grew up on the streets to put it shortly, but I still got hired to an estate to do this and that...

[ If you all have that much of a problem cleaning that seems like a skill issue. ]

I'm just saying. Pursuing it is up to you.

[sonorant]

You would be surprised how some people can clean. It makes it sound like you were an errand boy.

[ this is why different skill sets exist. ]

I will come to you, if I need more assistance.

[recession]

It's not like it's totally wrong... but I did work for the position and stature, until things changed and I was accepted into the family instead.

[ He nods on the second point. ]

[sonorant]

[ a master/servant relationship? whoa....

love is love. she knows enough pieces of his story to put two and two together. ]

.... A butler?

[recession]

More or less. It was pretty broad but you could consider it something of a butler's assistant, with varying housework otherwise.

[sonorant]

I imagine it's a position you'd be able to learn a lot from that vantage point. Outside of housework, too.

[recession]

Sure, yeah. Learned a lot about fine dining and high living. What makes a wine good, which spoon goes with what dessert. Why people appreciate art and music.

[sonorant]

I dare say you'd do better at high society function than I would.

[recession]

No? But you really look like you'd fit right in.

[sonorant]

Of course I can look the part, and I've attended enough glamorous events, but I've spent most of the past few years going to orphanages and building schools when I'm not performing or filming advertisements.

[ she may be the 1 percent, but she's out there being catholic. ]

[recession]

A saintly celebrity.

Rare kind...

[sonorant]

I wouldn't go that far. Being a celebrity is a vehicle for my mission.

[recession]

Plenty of people lose the plot once they've got power in their hands.
