PCs with Molly

Climbing.

[He says that like it should be obvious.]

Checking the third floor windows.

You're jumpy.

[headmt]

Can you blame me? Most people here who surprise me are taking a swing at my face.

[Stepping back. He can? Come into the room if he wants. or if he just wants to chill on the window sill that's fine too.]

[silentscout]

Why? Your face does not look particularly punchable. You can just headbutt them and hurt them more than they hurt you.

[Lalli, imagining Molly's head is like a ram's head. Probably has something to do with the horns.

At the offer, Lalli peeks into the room.]

It's not my dorm?

[That's his way of asking if it's okay for him to go in.]

[headmt]

[He reaches up to tap a horn.]

You know they're attached to my skull, right?

[Stepping aside, motioning out in a come in gesture like you'd use at the front door. Instead of a window.]

Don't see any Dorm Head around to stop me.

[silentscout]

That's the point.

[He sees a lack of Dorm Head here though, so he will climb in through the window. He looks around for a bit before speaking again.]

This looks more normal than Fall dorm.

[headmt]

Kind of plain, yeah?

[But, cozy enough.]

What's Fall like? Haven't been able to finagle my way in yet.

[silentscout]

If you want to come over I can let you in. There's red and leaves everywhere, and the blankets are warm.

[headmt]

Can't say I'm not curious.

[He looks around though, and then sits down on one of the bunk beds.]

It's a roof and a bed though. Hard to complain too much. Better than I get most nights.

[silentscout]

Mmm. It's nice to not be sleeping outside, yes. No risk of rain in here.

[He is. Far too used to it.]

[headmt]

Exactly! No rain, no mud, no kidnappings in the middle of the night.

[Also far too used to it.]

Take it you're a bit of a wanderer too then?

[silentscout]

No. Wanderer implies no destination. I always had a destination.

[headmt]

That so? And where's that destination?

[silentscout]

Into the Silent World to find someone, and then I'm going right back-

[Home.]

-to Saimaa. Maybe Sweden after that.

[headmt]

[Well there's a lot of words there that he doesn't recognize, but from context the last two are obviously just Places. But the Silent World? Ominous. Fancy terminology for a different plane maybe?]

Ah- Silent World?

[silentscout]

Yes.

[The obvious answer. He's not avoiding answering or anything though, it's actually that he doesn't realize Molly is asking him to elaborate.]

[headmt]

[Luckily he's decent enough at reading people to see that it isn't avoidance as much as a very literal response to the question, so,]

Haven't heard of that one. Or Sweden. Sounds-- Well, frankly a little spooky. Another plane or something?

[silentscout]

[plane...]

There's planes sometimes in the Silent World, I guess? They're all crashed and ruined.

But the Silent World is 'spooky', that's where all the Trolls live.
