She's really doing what she can to keep going forward. I appreciate what she told me, but at the same time, you need to look out for yourself now and again. :( I know I'm in the wringer myself, but I could lend you an ear too.
Haa!! Umbrella Girl, the myth, the Legend, the babe! Her name is Iso and she's really cool, legend or not.
U...umbrella girl?? Do I REALLY have that much of a reputation...?
Miss Iso helped me. So. So much in looking after Lin during that first few months when he kept attempting more and more terrifying things in his grief. She’s been good for Shylock too. She’s got my approval and standing, and the cloud sect will always be a safe place for her to come to should she need it.
Lin's brother! He's...kind. And basically made me an honorary cloud recesses member. ...And Shy's uncle! Man, Shy has a lot of good parental figures around...anyways, he must have his hands full with Lin, if my experience was any indication, pff!
He seemed...exasperated, which, well. I can't blame him. He's been kind every time I've met him, so...I hope he manages to figure things out. The world IS complicated, though...
A talented cultivator. She is a friend. She helped save Shylock when he was small. She also put up with me the fist night I got home. ...I owe her a lot.
I met him while I was trying to clear Wit's name, and...well, he seemed to agree with me immediately? The two must have some history, though I felt it a bit invasive to pry right that moment; seeing him all torn up holding baby Shylock though...that all but confirmed it.
...Then I had to babysit him for a week! This man is stubborn! Ugh. Wouldn't sit still and lie down...I had to break out my stern voice! MY STERN VOICE! I rarely have to do that!!!!
...Well, he's a good guy still, hehe. And clearly a good parent for Shy. I'm sure Wit would be happy with this arrangement; maybe even happier than it was? Though that may be reaching, hehe...
Iso… iso is a good one. She strives to understand and help and she even got me to spill myself a bit. Fuck. I really hope she isn’t too fucked over when this inevitably goes to hell. She deserves more than that..
I can always tell when someone's been through a lot or suffered loss after loss, and Quartz fit that bill from day one! You don't become as hardened as she is unless you wore your heart on your sleeve and lost one too many people...though, this isn't discrediting her as a person. Quite the opposite, actually; she still strives to help people, and that's what matters! She apparently was the one who wanted to round up the remaining sunfire folks, and...I love that? :( I wish I had known, I would have done something to help too? They deserve to live! Her work's incredible as well. I'm glad to know her!
Miss iso! She’s been there from the start. Or about as start as I know of? Very important. She stops by to visit every so often and she tells great stories!! I look up to her a lot
Baby! Well...I rescued him after the entire siege on Darkridge, or...I rescued Lin who rescued him? Well--he absolutely deserves a happy life, and I'm glad he managed to stay hidden. He's grown up so well, too! Lin's done a fantastic job and he has such good friends in the cloud sect and--oh, I forgot, I need to pick up some candy for my next visit...he loves those!
I do my best to do my part, of course - teach him to be a moral person, above all.
So I heard about her way back during the war but I never paid much attention, so her seeking me out later was a big shock! Isi is very my speed, I wish I had been doing a bit better when she visited so I coulda matched her but quartz was like. Like right there. She probably is in for a rough time trying to convince anyone I'm not a horrible evil boogeyman though.
I'm really, really, really confused about how he even got his reputation...? I knew knew KNEW it was all just slander when I first started hearing all those rumors! Methods don't lead to evil...and this man certainly is not that. Raising a kid, trying to look after an entire city, a cadre of people who care about him...he really deserved better, and I'm torn up about what happened to him. Helping Shy is probably the least I can do to try and help...
