...oh. So that's how it is.
quickpersuader: (so the...)

That's how it is.

[Wearily, they head for the stove - picking a frying pan off its hanging place on the wall.]

We'll need to figure out who "works" tomorrow, too.

How many people are out here for this kind of work?
quickpersuader: (into a night when)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2022-03-05 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
Just the two of us. Hermes is here, but he can't exactly "work."
identitypolitics: (37; than any place else.)

Makes sense, I guess. In that case—what's getting decided?
quickpersuader: (the wind)

Who will be the "heretic" who kills any citizens who are too sick to recover.
identitypolitics: (22; for itself alone)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

And you're an outsider, so it's convenient...

...have there been a lot of them?
quickpersuader: (so the...)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2022-03-05 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Three today.

The kind of place where the winters are hard, then.
quickpersuader: (where are)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2022-03-06 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Definitely. They don't believe in treating people, either.

Oh, it's that kind of backwater. Superstition?

Religion.
identitypolitics: (18; I might learn what it is)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] identitypolitics 2022-03-06 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
Same difference, I guess, on the outside. What would they even do if you weren't here?
quickpersuader: (so the...)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2022-03-06 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
Leave them to die of natural causes, I guess.

I showed you what to do today, but from now on it will need to be one person at a time. Do you want to take it tomorrow, or should I?
identitypolitics: (05; as I crossed a field)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] identitypolitics 2022-03-06 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
...it's easy enough. I can take tomorrow.

Is it reasonable to use tools other than firearms?
quickpersuader: (into a night when)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2022-03-07 08:20 am (UTC)(link)
As long as it's quick and relatively painless.
identitypolitics: (17; I used to wish)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] identitypolitics 2022-03-07 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
That's fine. Easily doable. It just seemed like it'd be nicer to make it a little cleaner.
quickpersuader: (so the...)

All you have to do is ask for a weapon of your choice and they'll provide it.
identitypolitics: (05; as I crossed a field)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] identitypolitics 2022-03-08 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
All right. That works; I'll decide what I think works best.

...I guess if everyone could face the ugly things, we'd both be out of work.
quickpersuader: (so the Beautiful World...)

[personal profile] quickpersuader 2022-03-08 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
At the very least, they wouldn't have a reason to let us stay until the end of winter.
identitypolitics: (223)

Re: “A Winter Tale” ─D─

[personal profile] identitypolitics 2022-03-08 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Well—I'll be ready for it, then. In the meantime, want help with dinner?
quickpersuader: (We are going; a quiet voice)

[Their smile is a tired one, but real nonetheless. Like a weight was lifted off their shoulders.]

Yes, please.

...And, thank you.
