So Zulius will get a voice message done with a voice modulator]
Zulius, owner of the Vogue. I am Shroud, a holy knight.
I got no quarrel with you or your group. I only seek an exchange of information. Would you be interested?
no subject
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, sure? Is that a really fancy way of asking if I've got some tea to spill? It sounds like that.
no subject
Yes.
I need to know about a new arrival. They have a grudge against Archons and are possibly a dragon.
1/2
[Because he CARES about two of those Archons a great deal. If someone is threatening them, he'd like to know. ]
2/2
It takes him a while. Jesus, people are thirstier than he is on this thing. Okay, okay, focus. Otter Dude seems to be pretty active. Something about him assuming Venti and Zhongli were married, nothing terrible there. He almost dismisses the lead. Until he sees Amal talking about god killing and everything going real bad, real fast.
...And there's Venti popping off, quite rightfully so, given his life had just been threatened. Hrm. He's going to have to message the Bestie about this. This is deeply, deeply worrying. ]
Okay, so I'm guessing you can't see the thirst post. Whiiiiiiiich really limits who you can be, BTW, but I'm just gonna pretend I don't perceive that for your sake because I'm a nice guy.
ANYWAY. There's this guy called Neuvillette - spoke to him, he's got this weird relationship with his boss and I'm like 80% sure she's actually his pimp- that's not important. Anyway. He's got a serious beef with Venti and Zhongli.
no subject
But crap. Such a tell does point big signs at his identity, so it's time to lie]
I saw it, but I didn't look through it because I'm a holy knight.
[That's a good cover, right? Right?]
Neuvilette... [That is a frenchier sounding name than he was expecting for a sibling of Azhdaha. Also, possible sex worker?? Well... whatever, that's not his business.] Did he say anything about the nature of his animosity?
no subject
Uh huh. If that's the narrative you wanna go with, sure thing, Kid.
[He is clicking X to doubt so hard. But it's fine, let the kid keep his secret on the hush-hush. That ain't his business. ]
They're using their big fancy god words again and frankly their history is a complicated mess I only understand like 50% of the time. [A half-truth. There's some worrying stuff being said here and the more he reads, the more afraid he is for his friends. What the fuck have they gotten themselves into? ] I think the French guy's brother died?
no subject
...As is always the case when it comes to gods. [Always so messy, always so complicated and confusing. Welcome to Jun's hell
But.
Ah. So that's what Neuvilette thinks happened. For fuck's sake Zhongli--]
I should've requested a 30% increase.
no subject
Yeeeeeep, they're good at that one. Especially Zhongli.
[He says it fondly, though. He loves the big stupid dragon.
...Wait. ]
An increase? ...Foooooor what?
no subject
I was commissioned to perform a task for Zhongli, the details of which I am not allowed to disclose.
Neuvilette is an unexpected complication to the mission that I only learned of today.
no subject
That's fine. For a second there I was worried you were a little bitty hitman or something.
But yeah. Honestly suddenly a possible murder plot really is a complication.
I'm gonna go talk to them. This is SUPER worrying. I'm worried.
no subject
[comforting.]
...I'm sorry to have caused you worry. He didn't mention any possibility of a murder plot when he told me.
[WHICH WOULD'VE BEEN GOOD TO KNOW ZHONGLI]
no subject
[This is so weird. It's so very weird, but he's now running on someone want sot murder my family energy so he's just gonna let the entire thing slide into his "I'll process this later" pile. ]
To be FAIR, I don't think any sane person would just right to "murder plot". I'm gonna kick that stupid dragon's BEhind. That's a thing you MENTION!!
no subject
[If Edward decides to assassinate people, he doesn't want to be the one blamed for it ok]
Do as you like. My commission contract doesn't cover protection from centaur attacks. [Is that a joke it's so hard to tell] Though, if you're set on befriending gods, it's good to be mindful that readily volunteering information isn't typically in their nature.
no subject
[No one needs that to start happening.]
Hah, I'd love to see it if it did. No one expects centaur attacks. [He snorts slightly at that.] TRUST me, I know. Zhongli can be a flunking nightmare. Blood from a stone is SUPER apt in every way possible.
no subject
Well, as long as you're aware. Just don't hurt yourself trying to bleed a stone.
no subject
It's okay, I have my ways of making him crack. He hasn't won an argument against me yet.
no subject
Thank you for the information.
