See that's why we have Glinda get him to have tea with her and then we get to the repairs.
Yeah, but it's our luck that they would decide to have a promenade up on deck and come across us and be, like, totally scandalized at our lack of safety.
[Slid under Quentin's door is a plain envelope, addressed to him.
Inside is a rather fancy invitation - exceptional cardstock, black with gold designs. His name is handwritten on it, and the sender also signed it.
It also smells faintly of roses.
Along with the invitation, is a small note. I'd like to get to know you more, if you're going to offer your services. -N]

[Oh. Well. Uh.]
[Writing back...seems...polite? Like he should RSVP, right? Yes okay it says 'of your choosing' so he needs to...make his choice.]
[A note is returned:]
Is Thursday at 8 okay?

Hello, darling.
So you're aware, I no longer reside in the castle. Lioriley and I have acquired a quaint little cabin in the Green Glades. You're welcome to come by, of course. Well, with a bit of warning, but we've a guest room to entertain in, if you find yourself in need of entertaining.

[Oh good, text, where he can mask the emotional breakdown he's having as completely as possible.]
Okay, good to know.
I'm alone in my room now so you know you can just come around whenever.

I saw what you wrote about. About Teddy.
Do you want me to come see you? We can talk about it. Or get really drunk, either or.
[This takes a minute to come back. Quentin has to think about it.]
I don't know if I can talk about it face to face without crying. I'm trying not to drink or take mellowlark so much.

Yeah. Sounds okay.
I don't really remember...that much of the mosaic? Like I remember broad strokes and a few specific memories but it feels like I remember a lot less than I should remember for something I lived. Like there's still a disconnect. You know?

I don't know, not exactly. Sort of. More like...almost like there really is an extra hundred years between me and those memories.
It feels like it happened a long, long time ago. That's why I said we've all died-- the timeloops. You know, what with Penny 23 becoming the new Penny.
Those memories have to go somewhere, don't they?

I guess I was freaking out too hard to know what that actually meant when you said it. I don't know, I mean, apparently those timelines kept going without us so I don't know if those memories do have to go somewhere. They just stay with the other version of us.
It does make me wonder if maybe the things we remember are the things the other versions forgot.

There was a horrible mess with some whales and shit, and yeah, I think we bleed our memories a little.
Something something old gods, Quentin! I don't know!
I'll just assume I missed more weird stuff.
Do you remember a lot of Teddy? Or Ari, for that matter?

I mostly remember him when he was a toddler.
