Were I to do so, I wouldn't be able to come along on that daydreamed adventure of ours, I'm afraid.
Hold onto your wish, Harrow. ... Do you want to know what it is, now? After all of this time, now that achieving it is a more distinct possibility than it was?
Maybe it won't come to that. There may be another way.
I do and I don't. In some ways, this is more advantageous. I don't have an emotional attachment to it, or a fear of losing it. It's only abstract. Perhaps ordinarily I might also lack motivation to fight for it, but I don't, because there are other people whose wishes I want to see granted. The obvious, people who would be dead without it, and the less obvious. Daydreams and such.
But I'm so curious about it. Knowing me, I assumed all along it was either something extremely important - for my House, for the Empire - or honestly something a little iffy, like causing the apocalypse for a dead girl. Or both. I suppose I didn't think myself so ordinary as to be here just for something so small as someone else.
Haha. I wouldn't call you ordinary by a long shot, no matter what you wished for. Considering the situation we've found ourselves in, that person must be quite special.
You've gotten me rather curious, too. It couldn't have to do with her, could it? The dead girl?
Not likely. The "dead girl" was a blithe reference to the corpse of an ancient enemy of God entombed forever behind the rock which must remain unrolled, which I have devoted my passions to.
[And Molly said he liked her wish and it seems unlikely he would have encouraged her forbidden corpse love?]
You can ask Mollymauk, as he claims to have figured it out. I don't mind, but when he tried to explain it to me it caused some sort of temporary mental breakdown.
[Or rather she got extremely sad and cried a lot for reasons she has no ability to understand.]
Yes, I figured it was your corpse crush. [ blease ]
I just might. I swear not to hold it over your head, though, if it is in fact romantic in nature, I'll want to approve first. [ stop. he trusts molly's judgement infinitely though so whatever it is, it must be very good and probably not that. ]
Let's avoid any breakdowns, though - it seems curiosity will have to wait a bit longer. How has your head been?

Okay. I have had so many other things on my mind.
no subject
Good. I'm glad to hear it.
Not much longer now - let's keep this up to the end. I'd like to find that alternate route.
All or nothing.
