[He didn't ask what she would do if she never regained her memories. The answer was obvious that she would just carry on, none the wiser for what she lost if someone didn't tell her. Perhaps it was a boon in some ways.
She was popular or at least friendly, so her reconnecting shouldn't be an issue.]
It's nothing. I've been told that's the 'neighbourly' thing to do.
[He didn't include because his brother had killed her either. Death was a constant, and it shouldn't bother him. It was why he didn't want a life beyond his brother. One person to worry about and save from death was far easier than many... not that it had helped where Feral was concerned.]
We've had a few encounters. I saved you from blood witches.
[He knew it wouldn't explain away his messages, but he wasn't certain if he wanted to risk getting more deeply involved again. Her death made him feel things, and he hadn't enjoyed it.]
[They're friends. You don't leave worried messages for someone if you're not their friend. You certainly don't tell them you're coming to the house and to warn the housemates if you're just neighbours.
She's not going to push him, though. She's too tired for it right now.
His reaction to hearing it was Maul who was responsible speaks volumes as well.
There's a smile in her voice when he says he saved her from blood witches.]
Well, thank you. For saving my life. It's not even the first time either from what I can remember.
[He could tell she didn't believe him, but he wasn't going to give breath the ideas that she might be formulating. He expected he could get away fairly freely if she was suffering from the effects of her return from being a squid.
His precautions to keep her alive had failed this last time. He wasn't used to having to be proactive for other people aside from his brother, his clan or the Nightsisters.]
No, there was the insects. That was some time ago. You aren't much for fighting.
Yeah, I remember that - it was a good thing you were there. Not being much for fighting kinda sounds like that might be what got me in this position this time, huh?
Unless something's changed a whole lot in the last... however long it's been since I came here, it seems like that's the most likely explanation. I know he threatened me, John, and Luna on the network - I didn't go looking for it myself or anything, but I heard about it. I'm guessing he came to make good on that threat, and realized afterwards maybe he shouldn't have.
[The suggestion gets a small laugh out of her.]
Don't worry. I don't remember dying this time, but I'm still in no big rush to repeat the experience.
Yes, there were threats leveled for a spell that was placed upon him. [But otherwise, he couldn't comment on Maul making good on the threat. It did sound like something his brother would do, especially if there was opportunity.] You told me that you would take precautions, and they seemed to be working.
[He wasn't going to mention their meet up arrangements.]
Good. Everyone gets upset when a nice person dies.
Yeah... I hate to admit it, but at least for now, I guess I'll have to count on him to fill in the blanks for me. I can't imagine we didn't all take every precaution possible.
[She sighs. She hates the idea of counting on Maul of all people for answers, but she suspects he's her best source of information for what happened.]
[He didn't count out that his brother might use her amnesia against her. He wouldn't interfere on that save for a single warning to keep his brother at arm's length as much as possible.]
This place hasn't seen fit to challenge me and threaten my life seriously.
Well, I mean, I kind of feel like I have to answer the messages he left me, but beyond that, yeah. I'm not going to go hanging around with someone who... you know. Killed me and all.
[She really doesn't want him anywhere near her, and will absolutely make sure the wards around the house to keep him off the property are still active.]
I'm glad you've managed to avoid any serious trouble around here, though.
Yeah, maybe not... But it's just over the network. I'm not gonna go meet him face to face or anything. And there's still wards up here to keep him away from the house.
[She smiles.]
Probably why you've been good at bailing me out of trouble, huh?
Thank you. If it ever happens, I'll take you up on that.
[She may not remember him from Trench, but from their conversation, she's been able to gather that she can trust him to... perhaps not side with her against Maul exactly, but at least try to keep the peace between them.]
Yeah. There's people here I'd do just about anything to protect too.
[Savage likely won't take her side overtly if a meeting happens, but he could distract his brother and encourage Maul away from an escalating confrontation. It wasn't that Maul listened to him too much, but Savage had rarely decided to throw his weight around either.]
Yeah. I remember. It's mostly the people I live with - there's a couple new faces here I don't know, though. I guess one of them I just... don't remember right now. The other actually just got here.
Yeah... trust me, I don't think I'm going to be going too far for a little while. I just hope this whole 'can't remember the last few months' thing goes away quick. It's, um. Confusing, to say the least.
