“Ouch…” he grimaced. “Well, at least he is trying. I am glad he is making an effort.”

He paused, checking the gps. “This will be a pain in the ass.”

“And now I’m taking orders from a twig!” He laughed, beginning his slow, methodical steps forward. Luckily for Nerva, Varis was using the pace to clear the path.

“Have you heard from Zenos of late?”

"I will simply tell him you died a good, honorable death in the snow. After I drag your frigid ass back to the capital." He laughed, putting his pack on, then securing his scarf tighter around his face.

"I will not leave you to die, Nerva."

"You know I no longer hold any sway in just doing. Emperor in nothing but title alone. It is Aji who rules." He smiled, not seeming to be bothered by the circumstances.

"Frail and weak cousin...." he laughed, not meaning anything by it. He stepped out into the cold, grabbing what supplies he had.

Something I am all too familiar with, in regards to my own changes...

Ah. She says I 'know nothing' when I asked if she was with child. I had gone to fetch something from an unused room that was holding some of our things, but she forbade me from entering. When pressing further, she kicked me out.
November 12, 2025 at 4:33 AM
Quite ironic. And a sight depressing.

Ah she... is my actual wife, and presently she is cross with me. I would rather stay out of her way than antagonize her further when I have done nothing but.
November 12, 2025 at 2:23 AM
Ajisai has been busy with something in the palace, of which she has kicked me out, and Regula...comes and goes. And it is rare that he is here.

"We do, but they are for inner city streets due to the delicate machinery. Hm. Perhaps if you presented a proposal, it could be approved."

He studies the screen on his gps, then shifts to reach behind him.

"Come, we are not far. Half a bell at most."
November 11, 2025 at 6:22 AM
"Oh please, you wouldn't get lost. Just follow your unnaturally large /tree/ of a cousin and you will be fine." He laughs. Soon, the snow becomes too much for the car, and Varis is forced to park.

With the engine turned off, it's impossibly quiet. He takes out his gps and switches it on.

"I will sling you over my shoulder if I must. But you will make an effort first." He casts a glance over at Nerva, smirking.
November 10, 2025 at 5:34 AM
"...perhaps." He seems to accept that reasoning for a while. The road becomes even rougher until it's no longer a proper road, it's just the dirt they're driving over. "Nearly there. We are likely going to have to walk a fair distance."

The snow had gotten deep and difficult to drive in.

"She's never done this before. She even started nesting. I caught her the same morning she kicked me out, gathering blankets and pillows. And when asked, she told me it was none of my business!" He sounded so offended. He continued down the rough road for a while until he turned once more.
November 10, 2025 at 4:16 AM
"Do you recall the day you and I ate all of her freshly baked rolanberry tarts? How she had threatened that she would never make them again? Well... she did. Not only that, but several croissants and many danishes."

Another turn, and they were on a bumpy, largely unused road.

driving before daybreak because she kicked me out over it."

He reached for his thermos, taking a very long sip of his coffee. "She at least was kind enough to pack pastries for our arrival."
November 10, 2025 at 2:38 AM
"Imagine my surprise when I became an Eikon myself, and reclaimed lost territory. As glorious as it was, it hurt more than necessary." He hummed, drumming his thumb against the steering wheel.

"I am almost positive that Aji is not mortal. Just as I am positive she is with child. Yet here we are,+
November 10, 2025 at 2:38 AM
And there's the rub now, isn't it? Am I too much a coward to do what I know I need to? I am unsure of how to take that step.
November 9, 2025 at 7:55 PM
That got him to snort. "No, the only mildly interesting one of the Twelve was Rhalgr. Of which I heard recently that the Twelve were actually real, and that the Warrior of Light bested them in combat. Do I believe that? ...Not necessarily, however, Ajisai seems to believe it."
November 9, 2025 at 7:54 PM
Festering and rotting upon my regrets is how I became an Eikon in the first place. The regret that I did not do right by my son, that I did not lead my people to the glory I promised them...

[He sighs, eyes sliding shut]

I've no desire to repeat that mistake.

"It was being used as storage, and one of my cloaks was inside. Nothing lewd or lascivious, I assure you. Those things stay within our private chambers exclusively." He snorts.
November 9, 2025 at 7:36 AM
She has told me time and again to do what I must to make myself happy. Yet there is still a pall that casts over me when I think of all that has happened.

I do not know where to begin, how to reach out to the other I love. I fear his rejection.
November 9, 2025 at 7:31 AM
....And Regula.
November 9, 2025 at 7:29 AM
"... You are correct, and I wish it were not impossible." He frowns, mostly to himself, then nods. "I will join you, whenever you ask of me. Even now."
November 9, 2025 at 7:28 AM
in frustration.

"Clearly, I obeyed her command, and eventually asked her to send it along if she found it."
November 9, 2025 at 2:45 AM
"I haven't the foggiest. She had also barred me from one of the unused guest rooms. I was not allowed to retrieve something from within and was told that if I went inside, she would put me on her assassination list! My own wife, threatening to assassinate me herself!"

One hand flew up into the air+
November 9, 2025 at 2:45 AM
Ajisai, Carosa, and... [He can't even finish]
