Okay. It's still kind of weird that he likes him, then, but not in a way I have any actual objection to.

Yep.

I did tell Findekano that ours had sworn oaths to the effect of 'faking' and 'does not find rape appealing' on the grounds that this seemed like a better shot than we were going to get ourselves and it was important for him to have more of an idea on how to help himself than for us to be able to swoop in as the cavalry.

We're not being very effective cavalry, I'll give you that.

Yeah that was a strong factor in the decision.

I would love to consult mine on this but apparently his being unconscious is serving a functional purpose, so.

Yeah.

He wanted to talk to someone not a Feanorian or dating one and I said I could get around to bringing my sister in or fork in a me off Ada who isn't dating Tyelcormo but obviously these weren't great improvements so I brought up that we have been periodically deciding it wasn't worth it to fork his alt without his consent.

There's the research teams resurrected in from Singularity.

I actually forgot about them.

They exist! I'll send you lists, although I don't know if he can osanwë them by name or what. He sends them.

I'm not sure they'll be good enough either, given that they were handpicked by a Maitimo, but they'll probably be an improvement on the available selection.

Yeah. And there's Bar, and Nechar, both of whom are people who are not Fëanorians or dating same.

Oh, that's true. Although I think Nechar is complicated for unrelated reasons.

A bit.

Bar's probably okay though. And theoretically he could talk to infirmary lady except for the part where she's so--

She's very so. I mean, he could talk to her anyway, but it doesn't seem likely to help.

Yeah. Poor infirmary lady.

Yep.

Okay, she tells Findekano, we actually have some people resurrected in from Singularity that are neither Feanorians nor dating same; they were on the other hand chosen off a list by a Maitimo. Also there is Bar, and Nechar who is undoubtedly complicated for other reasons, and the nice lady in the infirmary who has something seriously damaged in her mind.

Thank you I appreciate it. May I talk to Cam or had I better not?

I don't see any reason why you shouldn't. Or why I would be able to dispense or withhold permission to do so.

If he's liable either to be angry with me or to be under orders that'd make it a farce, then I would want to know that.

Oh, that makes sense. No to both.

Alright. Thanks. Is there a standard way to reach out to these people, or will I need to wait until I can move again - where I'm from it's very rude to interrupt someone from a distance with osanwë -

Not that I know of. Cam might.
