*if you are Tiger's Eye, Iolite, Kanji, or Viola, Lark left a candle for you to get in touch with her sometimes! feel free to use this post at any time for that.*

((as with Kite's, feel free to tag here even if she didn't give you a candle -- she asked Tiger's Eye and Viola at least to share them with other team people/knights! please just let them know OOC ♥))

[it seems like a good time for a candle call]

[reachforthesky]

*she answers! looking ruffled and windblown, like she just had a long flight*

Neji! Hi again!

[playfreebird]

Hello. ...Have you been traveling?

[reachforthesky]

Uh-huh, some! Though this part of Aather kind of all looks the same.

[playfreebird]

Where are you?

[reachforthesky]

Ummm, if I move the candle can you see? Let's try . . .

*the flame joggles, and she passes out of view*

[playfreebird]

It's not that important... just curiosity.

[reachforthesky]

*you probably just see a lot of blurry grey, and then she comes back into view*

Did it work? There's mountains.

[playfreebird]

...I can see how those may have been mountains.

[reachforthesky]

It's been mountains for days. There aren't any mountains showing up where you are, are there?

[playfreebird]

No, nothing like that at all.

[reachforthesky]

*sigh*

Worlds are really big.

[playfreebird]

I think there's part of what makes them worlds.

...Have you been successful fighting the darkness?

[reachforthesky]

Yes . . . I mean, no one really tells us we are or anything, but it gets mad when we hit it with lasers and then it tries to hit back and then things look a little better afterwards, so I think so.

[playfreebird]

—you attack the darkness with lasers?

[reachforthesky]

I don't, but Slayer does.

[playfreebird]

...I see. I didn't realize that was how you fought the darkness.

[reachforthesky]

Sometimes there's puzzles and things too! And sometimes it's just silly things . . . there's a lot of different ways to do it.

[playfreebird]

I see.

[pauses for a moment, not long but palpable, then lifts his wrist to the candle to see if Lark can see the bracelet]

[reachforthesky]

*there's an indrawn breath*

Oh! You did it...

[playfreebird]

I did. I had the option to stay here, and took it. I suspect it's the best choice for Iolite...

[reachforthesky]

You want to look after them, right?

[playfreebird]

Hm. ...Obsidian was pleased.

[reachforthesky]

Of course . . . I don't think he would have wanted you to go.

I'll still see you when we can visit there again, right?

[playfreebird]

Of course.

I would hope so... at least.
