Deal 002 ❖ [Video]

[And onto the video screen comes a grinning face, looking just a bit excited. But then, he has something in his conniving little head. He can't quite seem to help it.

Or maybe he can. Half of his actions are a carefully kept facade. But either way, here's the grin and the video feed fidgets just a bit as he sets it down on a table.]

Good afternoon to everyone! I... am looking for something.

I think I'm getting the general lay of this place. Yesyes, it's starting to make sense. Fascinating as it is. Strange as it is. But I've yet to find a certain something I would rather like to acquire.

So tell my, dearies, can anyone tell me where I might find a spinning wheel?

That's right, it's good to embrace the roots.

[intogold]

I agree whole-heartedly, deary. No sense forgetting the past.

[sonofaghost]

So, how old are you? You got family? What's your story?

【 VIDEO 】

[intogold]

Quite old. Older than I look [Bit of a grin here, though it's a challenge to keep it on his face at the next question.] I had a family.

My story though! Well, it is quite the story, I assure you!

[sonofaghost]

You had a family? I'm sorry, maybe I shouldn't have asked.

[intogold]

Not to worry, deary. Things are what they are.

[He's not entirely sure why he's admitting this next part. This is odd for him. He usually has a plan behind every word he speaks.] I have a son. Somewhere. I do plan on finding him.

[sonofaghost]

What's his name? I can keep a look-out just in case he appears?

[Oh, father figures. He misses his dad, you know.]

[intogold]

[So he's a bit surprised by this. But can it hurt to share this information here? The chances of his son actually arriving. Well...] Baelfire. Though I called him Bae.

【 VIDEO 】

[sonofaghost]

Baelfire. Crazy name, you got it.

Don't worry, we'll find him if he gets here.

【 VIDEO 】

[intogold]

Well, perhaps it's a bit unique.

[He inclines his head.] Much obliged, deary.

【 VIDEO 】

[sonofaghost]

No problem. It must be hard missing your son. I'm sure he's all right.

【 VIDEO 】

[intogold]

[This is still an odd conversation for him.] Yes. I'm sure too.

【 VIDEO 】

[sonofaghost]

[What's so odd, bro? You're a bad father or something?]

Well, I guess I'll let you be, sir.

[intogold]

[Terrible. All the failures he still can't make up for. So he doesn't talk about it. Ever.]

It's been a pleasure chatting, deary.
