[After talking with John Doe...]

What the fuck, Rawne?

[major_rawne]

You'll have to be more specific.

Re: Audio, after pairings

[major_rawne]

Apparently. I'm glad, honestly. I like you.

Just, no more stabbing.

[transfundere]

Mister Rawne?
I believe your inmate has been brought to the infirmary, no longer among the living. If you would like to come down to attend to them, that would be rather helpful.

My apologies that I can't speak further, but I have them and others to attend to.

[major_rawne]

Thank you for letting me know. I'll be down to pick them up soon.

audio

[cactusy]

We need to talk.

Re: audio

[major_rawne]

[That's a horrible phrase to hear.]

In person? I'm available, if so.

[Private]

[pharadyne]

Rawne, darling, I'm coming over.

Re: [Private]

[major_rawne]

I'm home.

Audio

[tinstar]

Hey - wanted to touch base with you, see how you're doin'. I hear you've had an exciting week.

You got time for a conversation?

Re: Audio

[major_rawne]

Sure. I'm guessing this has to do with Avalon?

audio

[cactusy]

So how's stuff with Avalon going? You still keeping a close watch?

Re: audio

[major_rawne]

I am. Raylan suggested some more... creative punishments and I'm thinking them over. Like making anything they could use as a weapon go limp when they touch it.

audio

[cactusy]

I'm up; I was in a coma. Avalon stuff still going okay?

Re: audio

[major_rawne]

I'm glad you're up.

Avalon's been fine. I'm trying to ease them into socializing with people.

Audio

[chaos_drifter]

Do you think the Admiral could make me capable of feeling emotions like a human, temporarily?

Re: Audio

[major_rawne]

Maybe. Is that something you want? Or something you feel like you should do?

Video

[chaos_drifter]

[After a day of creating objects, mostly empty containers and teacup kittens, Avalon calls Rawne. If the Flood causes spoken words to become objects, but not text, their telepathy could allow them to avoid it. It would at least stem the flow of animals.] I have a theory. Would it be possible to get my telepathy back, just for the duration of the Flood?

Re: Video

[major_rawne]

To avoid this bullshit? [A figure falls out of frame. He ignores it.] I'll ask.

Spam, forward-dated to Tuesday

[chaos_drifter]

[Avalon stands in front of Rawne’s door for several minutes before they decide to knock. Their mind feels neutral, but their body feels more awake than usual, as if someone had shocked them. It seems to pierce through the death toll, temporarily energizing them.

This is a combination of worry and confidence, according to their orb. Anticipation, according to the bracelet that the Flood gave them. Why? They may not get their ability back. The Admiral may be able to remove their beads without returning their shapeshifting, though they doubt it. Either way, their body will revert to how it was when they arrived every time they die.

They knock, staring at their wrist, imagining it bare. Removing their beads will not erase their past, but it will be physical confirmation that they have left that identity behind.]

Re: Spam, forward-dated to Tuesday

[major_rawne]

[Rawne opens the door and gestures them in.]

Are you doing all right?

after the incident on deck

[makethestory]

Hey,

My apologies about the... albeit unorthodox way I deescalated the situation with you and Jacob. Everything all right?

I nudged you a little as we walked off so you'd hopefully wake up sooner.

Re: after the incident on deck

[major_rawne]

I'm fine. I don't think I was out for that long and my head only aches a little.

Why'd you knock me out?

[pharadyne]

I saw the message from Avalon on the network. Congratulations, darling. What did you ask the Admiral for?

[major_rawne]

To bring Gaunt back and save the Ghosts. I can't leave them on Jago.

Audio

[chaos_drifter]

Do you know Root well? [All they know about her is that she was willing to stalk them as a sort of petty revenge.]

Re: Audio

[major_rawne]

Sort of? She's Shaw's wife, so I've hung around with her, but I can't say I really know her. She's not the sort of person you get to know easily.

[chaos_drifter]

The Barge is different, both from the Rift and from Earth. Even with Avalon’s telepathy restored, all of the cabins and some of the people register as blank spaces unless they intentionally reach out. When they do, some people are still harder to contact than others, their thoughts and emotions rushing through Avalon’s mind in a blur. They decide not to try any sort of manipulation on random people, even after they develop a mental list of those whose minds are more difficult to reach.

Which means that, by the time they knock on Rawne’s door, they have no indicator of whether or not they will be able to accomplish anything. They can tell that they want to, more than they did before, but they would prefer to try this on someone they know.

Re: Spam

[major_rawne]

Rawne answers the door, smiling a little when he sees who it is. "Come in. What brings you here, today?"

Shortly after Justine's death

[madaboutit]

[It's been less than 20 minutes since Sweeney killed her, and it's time to get to the rest of the plan in motion.]

You got a sec?

Justine needs a resurrection.

Re: Shortly after Justine's death

[major_rawne]

Sure. One resurrection coming up.

What happened?

Audio, backdated to 10/28

[chaos_drifter]

[They sound like they just woke up.] What happened on the Narrenschiff? Are you okay?

Re: Audio, backdated to 10/28

[major_rawne]

[He sounds tired.] We fought, we got away. I'm fine. [Physically.]

on the 6th

[howheendures]

Hello, Rawne. Will you ask the Admiral for something for me?

Re: on the 6th

[major_rawne]

Depending on what it is, sure. Though you might not get it.

Audio, during the Flood

[chaos_drifter]

[The recording is silent for a moment before they ask,] How are you doing on staying warm? [He would be comfortable hugging them, they think.]

Re: Audio, during the Flood

[major_rawne]

Pretty well. I'm managing. Are you?

[artistinexile]

Good day, Warden Rawne.

I have a professional question to ask when you are at liberty to discuss.

[major_rawne]

I'm free now. What do you need?

[Why is he being formal?]

Spam

[chaos_drifter]

After Sheehan’s post, Avalon pulls a page out of one of their sketchbooks and draws tiny metallic whorls in the center of it, forming an orb. When they knock on Rawne’s door, they have it folded in their pocket, along with a few pens.

Re: Spam

[major_rawne]

Rawne opens the door and backs up to let them in. "What brings you here today?"

[pharadyne]

Rawne, darling, we need to talk. I'm coming over.

[major_rawne]

[That sends a bolt of energy down his spine. A bad one.]

I'm in my cabin, it's unlocked.

Voice

[general_affairs]

Hey, I got sent your way. Just wanted to let you know I found Jinx and Ekko together. Looks like Sebastian got to them, but they're safe in my room on the fourth floor.

Jinx woke up not long ago. I offered to let her blow off steam at the enclosure, but if you wanna swing by, my door's open, yo.

Re: Voice

[major_rawne]

Thanks. [He sounds like shit. Recent death will do that.] Which floor are you on?

after Jinx's message

[greatoldjohn]

Hey Rawne,

Jinx requested a Dancer. It's a part of me, it's safe, it won't hurt you or her or anyone. So... don't freak out if you see them. They're small figures look covered in ribbons of fabric and they dance around.

Just letting you know so you don't exert yourself trying to defend her from it.

Re: after Jinx's message

[major_rawne]

Thanks for letting me know. I'd have tried to hit it, otherwise.

Spam, after Jedao’s announcement

[chaos_drifter]

It takes them a moment to notice his mind’s absence amid everyone else, but once they do the infirmary is one of their first stops. They make tea for themself and bring water for him. Sitting next to his bed, they sketch while they wait for him to wake up.

It feels different this time. The emptiness in their chest is there, but their muscles are tense and they feel less weak, like what Shaw had described.

Re: Spam, after Jedao’s announcement

[major_rawne]

Rawne wakes up a little while after Avalon arrives. He groans, still feeling like shit, but he manages a smile once he sees Avalon.

"Hi. Sorry about... this."
