Telecharm: Heya Arkay!
Telecharm: So!
Telecharm: I heard on the grapevine that a certain someone is doing certain somethings with someone’s trio buddies!
Deathbringer: Uh.
Deathbringer: How do you know about this?
Telecharm: I do promos for the less hidden Hidden Trios once in a blue moon. But I also do a lot of videos about safety and stuff, and a lot of it is “if you see x, keep away”.
Deathbringer: There are warnings to keep normal folks away from us?
Telecharm: So you ARE doing Hidden Trio stuff!
Deathbringer: Uh.
Deathbringer: Kinda.
Deathbringer: All we’ve really done so far is help some people solve territory disputes.
Deathbringer: Kronothrax Time Drakes seem dumber than I expected.
Telecharm: Really?
Telecharm: I’ve never met a Time Drake.
Deathbringer: Do they not go to Deathven Sectors? You’re in a pretty big, important Deathven Sector, right?
Telecharm: They’re not allowed in Deathven Sectors. Same with Voidborns unless invited.
Deathbringer: What about Life Goddesses.
Telecharm: Huh. I don’t know, actually. I think it depends on the sector.
Telecharm: So you actually are doing the “stuff of legends” as one other Trio puts it?
Telecharm: Did the Big O tell you that he wants you to be legendary?
Deathbringer: He kinda just appeared at Savepoint, teleported me, Retvik and Litvir to his office then told us some stupid spiel about being a legend, yeah.
Telecharm: That’s so fucking cool.
Deathbringer: Eh.
Telecharm: You don’t find it cool?
Deathbringer: Not really.
Telecharm: Why? He’s the Big O!
Deathbringer: He openly admitted to trying to kill me because I’m a Synaisthyn.
Telecharm: Oh.
Telecharm: He OPENLY admitted it?
Deathbringer: Yep. When my fellow Synaisthyn Elkay did his Decay Lord Trial.
Telecharm: Oh. I remember now.
Telecharm: He tried to kill your boyfriends too.
Deathbringer: Multiple times.
Telecharm: Wait, what?
Deathbringer: You know the Mindeater?
Telecharm: Yeah?
Deathbringer: I don’t remember how, but I killed Mindeater.
Telecharm: Fucking what?
Deathbringer: He tried to eat Litvir.
Telecharm: You killed him and saved Litvir?
Deathbringer: I thought you knew about this? It happened before Teekay and Elkay’s wedding.
Telecharm: I knew Litvir was attacked, didn’t know you killed Mindeater!
Telecharm: Mindeater was like the most powerful Psion ever!
Deathbringer: Being a Psion means fuck all once your head is chopped off.
Deathbringer: Litvir openly claims that, in a fight, Litvir’s reaction times aren’t enough to beat Retvik’s flames or my… my overpowered piss.
Deathbringer: But yeah, we’re doing this strange Hidden Trio stuff now.
Deathbringer: Apparently we were supposed to be meeting another Trio but they cancelled so we went and did some Corruption purging on our own.
Deathbringer: Retvik and Litvir are napping while we wait for someone to send us a new job.
Telecharm: This is all so cool to me.
Deathbringer: For me, it’s a Tuesday. Or whatever day it is right now.
Telecharm: Did Deathven give you a ship?
Deathbringer: Before I answer, I have no idea if I can talk about any of this.
Telecharm: Ain’t stopped you so far.
Deathbringer: True.
Deathbringer: Yeah, he gave us a ship. It’s called the Deathly Soulflame.
Telecharm: Based on your code names?
Deathbringer: Yeah.
Telecharm: That’s so cool.
Deathbringer: Annoying thing is, I literally bought a ship just before Deathven bribed us.
Telecharm: You did?
Deathbringer: Technically.
Deathbringer: I bought the Thantir Three off Vikalos so he could buy back his old original ship.
Deathbringer: The plan was to turn it into a cosy camper sort of thing so Retvik and Litvir and I could go on holiday, but then Deathven turned up and threw a ship at me which is everything I kinda wanted, but painted black and edgy.
Telecharm: Did he ask what ship you wanted?
Deathbringer: Kinda.
Deathbringer: I mean, it’s cool, but I kinda do feel like I’m Deathven’s bitch right now. He bribed me to do this and I accepted the bribe.
Telecharm: Yeah but it’s cool.
Telecharm: You’re cool.
Telecharm: It’s so cool that I know a Hidden Trio! And I’ve met you all!
Deathbringer: You and I haven’t actually seen each other in person since… uh…
Deathbringer: I can’t remember the last time I saw you.
Telecharm: Oh.
Telecharm: It was when I died and turned into a Veth, I think.
Deathbringer: Are you slightly Veth-y then? Because all the other Teekays, apart from Skyan Teekay, they’re Retha.
Telecharm: I’m kinda a bit of both.
Deathbringer: So still Threanic?
Telecharm: Yeah.
Telecharm: I have just realised I have no idea what you look like these days.
Telecharm: Still yellow, I assume?
Deathbringer: Yeah.
Telecharm: And Retvik is red and Litvir is purple… Not a great colour combo.
Deathbringer: I’m totally picking up promo vibes from this.
Telecharm: They might make you into a Famed Trio one day.
Deathbringer: No thanks.
Telecharm: Don’t want the fame?
Deathbringer: Not at all.
Deathbringer: I accepted this stuff as a way to go on holiday with Retvik and Litvir, so we can spend time together.
Telecharm: Oh.
Deathbringer: If anything, I think Retvik would have preferred staying at Savepoint. And Litvir and I kinda agree. We wanted to just slowly spread our influence from Patagenic outwards. But Deathven kinda wants us to be like the Travellers except more murder-y.
Telecharm: Are you in direct contact with Deathven?
Deathbringer: Kinda?
Deathbringer: We get text messages from him telling us what to do but that’s kinda it.
Telecharm: Huh.
Telecharm: Huh. That is still cool.
Telecharm: It’s weird that I’m so excited and for you, you kinda just… don’t care.
Deathbringer: I’ve lived a fucking long time and I’ve done a lot in that time. It’s not that I don’t care, it’s more that my life has always been a bit of a mess and this is just a different mess in a different direction.
Deathbringer: Admittedly, I am kinda treating this like a holiday though. It’s been really nice just doing things with Litvir and Retvik.
Deathbringer: At some point though, I want to see you.
Deathbringer: I’ve made amends with a lot of folks, but you’re still on the list.
Telecharm: Yeah, it’d be awesome to meet up.
Telecharm: I’m in Deathven Sector Beta, maybe you’ll get a chance, with your new Hidden Trio stuff.
Deathbringer: Tell you what, I’ll have a look at my itinerary and will let you know.
Telecharm: Really? Awesome!
Deathbringer: Heh.
Deathbringer: I gotta head off now. Gotta wake my angel and my demon up.
Telecharm: No worries! See you round!
Deathbringer: See you soon, Teekay.
