Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 4:29 pm"You could say that. Have you been out to the Point lately?"
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 4:35 pm"Can't say as I have. Had my hands full."

Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 4:43 pm"...be more specific."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 4:47 pm"I wish I could. Something that's certainly not a lighthouse but just as non-existent is casting a shadow and the whole area feels... more alive than it should be."

Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 5:03 pm"Not much so far, to be honest."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 5:04 pm"Not sure what to tell you then, love."

Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 12:55 pm"Yes but this doesn't feel like the aftermath of destruction. If anything it's the opposite."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 12:57 pm"Aye, but where Brian Braddock's wife is concerned... I don't know."

Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:09 pm"She's... like me," she said after some consideration.
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:15 pm"No offense Sam, but if you're saying you could create a spring of life like that then you're overestimating yourself just a little."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:18 pm"No, no, that's not..."
She sighed.
"I'm sorry. I just think what she did was for a reason. I don't know. She always made me... uncomfortable, before."

Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:30 pm"Alright. And again... I know I've been rather gung-ho about being this in full throat, but..."
"Old memories, I suppose. I'm probably making too much of it."

Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:42 pm"You'd think it would be comforting, having an inkling that someone was like yourself."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:55 pm"I can see how it wouldn't while you're still trying to come to terms with things."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:57 pm"Aye, and at the time she was... rather stranger than me, or so I thought."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:58 pm"And looking back on it now?" she smirks faintly.
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:59 pm"Now I've either come even or pulled ahead," she admitted.
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 2:06 pm"So... You think she might have intended something like this down the line?"
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 2:08 pm"I think she knew something was there and it needed not to be. I don't know if it was this."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 2:12 pm"Well, I'd agree with her on this potentially being bad news. It doesn't feel bad in itself, but if someone tried to abuse it..."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 2:16 pm"...would it be too much to ask for you to be there, if I go to check it out?"
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 2:19 pm"Of course not."
Re: Nailah's Office - Occult Studies
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2012 2:19 pm"Thank you. I know it's silly, but... I'd feel better."
