Warnings: Will update and label as they come in, but for right now none.

[Molly sides with the oppressed and the people who aren't privileged, so the idea that his actions are tipping the scales irritates him. Of course, he's going to do something about it. The thing he's not anticipating is that the landens are emboldened and still looking to lash out, especially when pressed by a Stranger that they believed supported them. What Molly had gone into expecting to be a nice conversation has turned ugly as he bolts behind a cart while a landen shopkeeper pelts him with rotten food.

"HERE. SHARE THIS!"

Right. So this is going to require a different kind of tactic, especially now that it's become something of a scene.

[Taking jobs outside of the city becomes something that Molly leaps onto without the slightest thought. Playing bodyguard isn't all that difficult, and while Lady Abigail works her magic, he's taken up a watch alongside his partner from a safe distance.]

Is it awful to take bets on what the coming danger is this time? I'm hoping for something unifying.

[Despite being irritated at the Guilds and the landens... Again, Molly wants to get out of the city and stretch his legs and work out some frustration free of the oppressive class wars. With Caleb here now, taking anyone else seems stupid and dangerous, but he didn't really get the choice. The second he agreed, the shopkeeper paired him off with someone else who was interested, regardless of whether or not they knew each other.

So that's fun.

Luckily, for all that Molly is ostentatious and fabulous, he's extremely well-traveled and knows what he's doing, which is fairly impressive and may save the mission some grief. As he and his partner get within a hundred feet of a campsite not far from the mountains themselves, with a campfire that's still smoldering slightly, Molly puts a hand up.]


Is it just me or does that seem a little bit like a trap?

[At Molly's gentle rebuke, Caleb smiles sadly and faintly. His face is kept turned away for the time being.]

Alright then.

[It isn't. And he's never going to forget or feel less awful about what happened to Molly. Even if it was, as the tiefling says, a gamble. A turn of fate. But Caleb is more than used to keeping his guilt to himself and it doesn't really matter to continue to hold this bit of it tight as well.

After a few moments, he glances back up at Molly.]


We took care of them. The Iron Shepards. And rescued the others.

[There's just a little bit of fire in his voice, as he talks about killing the Shepards.]

Then....I'm glad.

[Caleb reaches out, now, resting a hand on Molly's arm.]

You have been missed, though. And it is...very good to see you again.
breadmuffs: (got high hopes lots of potential)

[Well, he's definitely not going to find Caleb agreeing with him on that point. He absolutely understands why Beau and Nott seem to think so now but that's not coming from a place of rationality for either of them.

Caleb has missed Molly....but he's also fairly certain the best of them is Jester. No offense, Molly. Which is to say he doesn't actually address that other than to cock his head to the side just a little and...verbally ignore it otherwise.

He'll address the vulnerability, though. Perhaps with a little of his own.]


I...am glad to see you for that reason too. To be here but...also to have you here.

[Of course, he'd prefer Nott, but....Molly is not bad either.]

To have a familiar face.
