through the trials of time

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[Milo appears on the Astral Plane wearing the bottom half of his cloth. Like so but uh hotter. His expression is relaxed unlike the last time he made himself known and he almost seems content, if a bit tired.]

Quite a feat to repair my temple in such a short time, even for me. But it is done.

...with the help of the kitten of course. Seems we won't be fighting each other any time soon.

[His mind is clearer and more open than usual today. In his head he's thinking,] If I could simply enjoy this peace given without holding back... [Aaand his mental guard goes back up.]

[He lies on his back on the "ground" of the Astral Plane.]

Tell me, anyone know where the Northern Cross is?

Or maybe our position relative to them makes it seem that way.

[He's on his back searching the galaxies for it.]

[lamb_of_gold]

Perhaps. Cancer has taken Ophiuchus' place near Scorpio, by the way.

[Dryly.] Yum, Deathmask.

[lamb_of_gold]

I can't say I envy you in that case. [see icon]

[leschath.livejournal.com]

We were on speaking terms actually. [thoughtful]

[lamb_of_gold]

I think I've spoken to him once since my return from Jamir, though most of the words that passed between us were of the threatening sort.

[Finally sits, cross legged]I believe I owe you great thanks - your invitation may have saved my life, if not my well being at the very least.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

It was quite easy to speak to him actually. Civility is not required or even expected so it didn't matter what I said.

[Turns his face a bit to look at Mu for a moment.] ...you don't owe me anything. But, you are welcome nonetheless.

[lamb_of_gold]

I suppose I cannot help but be polite with my speech.

I mean that seriously, Milo - I returned to find that someone had taken down Aldebaran and then fled...

[leschath.livejournal.com]

Elaborate.

[lamb_of_gold]

He was bedridden, and the entire entryway to his temple was iced over.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

Then you have less to thank me for even. If not for my invitation perhaps that could have been prevented.

[lamb_of_gold]

With the state I was in, I would probably have been killed.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

[Milo holds his tongue before he says something he doesn't mean.]

...and how is Aldebaran now?

[lamb_of_gold]

He will be fine after a few days of rest.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

I wonder how much longer the peace will last in my version.

[lamb_of_gold]

I take it this has happened to you already?

[leschath.livejournal.com]

Yes. Before I was able to access this place.

[lamb_of_gold]

So I am several weeks behind you then...

Perhaps you could ask Shun when the Holy war begins. He's been through it.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

And what would be the point of that?

[lamb_of_gold]

You wondered how much longer.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

Not in a literal sense. How long doesn't matter, I should just make the most of it.

[lamb_of_gold]

I'm not one for taking things figuratively.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

I'm not either, usually.

[lamb_of_gold]

Then don't wonder aloud.

[leschath.livejournal.com]

My bad. [grins slightly]
