We need to talk.

[Seconds later:]

Sorry, that sounded harsh. I'm not mad.

(When her phone goes off with Magnus' username (of all usernames), Lucretia stares at it for a long moment before she reaches over to unlock it and read the message.

God, what fresh hell is this.)

What's up? Is everything okay?

[ohhmrburnsides]

Yeah, everything's fine. I drank the ichor.

[scholiast]

(Oh.

Oh. It takes a long time for her to reply, because she's experiencing a whirlwind of emotions in reply to this; five minutes later, Magnus receives:)

In that case, welcome back.

(And then:) I've missed you.

[ohhmrburnsides]

[He's not surprised for the delay at all. Even though he's not sure what he's feeling, he knew what he wanted out of this conversation when he started it, so he knows how to respond in time.]

Missed you too, Luc.

Heard you got a new place. Could I come over sometime?

[scholiast]

Please, I'd love to have you.

How are you? Was drinking the ichor alright? You didn't do it alone, did you?

(#mom mode)

[ohhmrburnsides]

It was pretty shitty. But I'm fine now.

Taako was there.

[scholiast]

That's actually the informal title of the book I wrote about the mission.

(She's glad Taako was there but at the same time she's hurt that she wasn't. But then, knowing Magnus, it had probably been a spur of the moment decision.)

He's talking a big game about me, isn't he.

[ohhmrburnsides]

[Nailed it!]

Don't worry, I know how Taako can be. I'm taking it with a grain of salt.

Many grains of salt.

[scholiast]

It's more than I deserve; I'll take it.

How is he? We aren't uh currently on speaking terms.

[ohhmrburnsides]

Y'know, I did get the impression that was the case.

He's fine. Don't worry about him.

[scholiast]

Thanks for finally giving me permission to smash that big WORRY ABOUT TAAKO button and switch it off once and for all. Its been driving me crazy.

[ohhmrburnsides]

Okay, okay, you're right.

Are you free this weekend?

[scholiast]

I am. Wanna come hang?

(Just like old times.)

[ohhmrburnsides]

Yeah. I'll come around Saturday morning.

[scholiast]

Okay.

(Obviously there's going to be Talks, but she can't help being excited about it anyway. It will be so good to see him.)

I'm looking forward to it.
