[Like a pet? Well, it's not the worst thing that could happen...but still inconvenient. And there are worse things that could happen. Having others who can help in those events isn't a bad idea. It's a good idea, in fact.
So why does he feel reluctant? Well, he doesn't know these people, or at least not well. That's all, of course.
He probably can't question them all first, right? That'd be too suspicious.]
[The beauty of text is that he has time to type "she has problems every month," consider it, and decide that's not actually the point here. Even if Ahiru does get into trouble consistently. For example, by making very questionable friends.]
It was related to Mother Mercy's curse last month. I managed to talk her through it so it wouldn't get far enough to cause searing agony. But it's best if you address her worries yourself.
[He'd meant what brought on the curse, but he won't bother with the hassle of explaining himself. If Ahiru mentioned Mytho, that's enough - he can guess at the rest.]

I found your duck buddy under a net
don't worry, she's safe. She'll probably feel better when she sees you, though

And she was having some problems last month.

Was it something to do with Mytho?
no subject
Date: 2022-04-19 12:43 am (UTC)No, Mother Mercy's curse. The one that causes searing agony if you don't talk about what's troubling you.
But she did mention Mytho, yes. I'd prefer not to tell you everything she said, however.
[Ahiru did, after-all, mention that she trusted Fakir to keep her out of trouble. If he's a remotely decent guide, he'll do his damn job.]
no subject
Date: 2022-04-20 05:54 pm (UTC)I'll talk to her again.
