Bonjour, mes amis.

[ Faintly sing-song, but in a drawling and subdued way. It doesn't do to sound too chipper and excited about asking people semi-invasive questions. ]

I have been talking to the Seneschal, and we thought—well, it's possible we might need a fraternization policy. Or a record, at least, in case it becomes a problem later. And to decide whether that is necessary: information about fraternization.

[ It's obvious from his voice that he's pleased that that rhymes. ]

So who is together? Or involved, if together is a scary word.

Please feel very free to rat out your bashful friends.

[ As an afterthought, ]

If you have opinions about the policy or record part, I will take those, too.

[Cue Astarion reaching out to catch the underside of one of Cole’s heels in passing, giving it a mild little tug.]

Can you imagine all of Riftwatch intertwined into one writhing, carnal collective?

It’d be an absolute mess.

And not the fun kind.

[A pensive beat, before:]

I’m also not sure everyone would survive, either...

[Cole is distracted enough by the chatter on the crystal that he takes in a sharp little gasp as his foot is grabbed - but it's quickly that he recognizes who is with him. He blinks one of his owlish blinks at Astarion, expression a little blank with confusion over the words.

He thinks for a long moment about it, trying to comprehend the meaning, before finally:]


Usually it's only two, three, I thought. Too many bodies wouldn't work, would they?

[He knows what sex is, of course. He's seen it.

He just doesn't understand it, beyond knowing for many it is a need.]

Well...that's a little more complex, darling. [Or a lot more complex, depending on the assembly.] Start tacking on more participants and usually what you're sporting is an orgy: a wild, carefree, intermingling of souls doing precisely whatever salaciously comes to mind in full view of everyone else.

In other words, what our dear Loki was attempting to assemble not one week ago.

Oh.

[He still doesn't REALLY get it.]

But then...why wouldn't everyone survive?

Oh. Enmity, my dear little ghost. Vitriol. Contempt.

For a group that prides itself on kicking about for the same cause, we certainly foster a shocking amount of animosity between ranks. [Hells, even this announcement across the crystal network proves it.]

Halfway through the act, one person chokes out ‘mage rights’ midway through orgasm, and right then and there you’ve got a nasty little fray.

Naked. And furious.

[Well, hold on, now— one finger resting itself gently across the bow of his lips.]

Hm.

On second thought, maybe that’s actually not a bad idea.

[Cole's brows knit together a little at this, lips pursing. He understands what is being said, but...he doesn't think he will ever really understand humans well enough to understand things like this secondhand. Devoid of the context of active feeling, it all just sounds...bizarre.

Good thing he has friends like Astarion to explain it to him.]


...I don't...really understand.

But I have seen the fighting, felt the fury between fellows. It...worries me. Humans never seem to get along for long enough.
