It's okay, Molly! It's just Shaun. See? Just Shaun.

[ Fjord wraps an arm backwards around what he can feel of Molly, looking to Shaun with a silent plea for help. I have no idea what happened! his widened eyes yell, while outwardly he keeps his voice low and steady. ]

Thank you for the food, we were getting sooo hungry. Hello, Shaun! Have you met Molly ... ?

[ Gently emphasising the name as he pats Molly behind, the stage-voice he uses is purposefully light. ]

[gloriouslygood]

[ Shaun stays where he is and leans casually against the doorframe like this is not an unusual morning and Fjord is clearly not panicked. ]

Hello, Fjord. Hello, Molly. Lovely to see you this morning.

[ While he chats he fiddles with the bracelet, trying to see if anyone else is around to come help. ]

Molly is especially looking lovely. I do so enjoy his particular shade of purple.

[devilstongue]

[ Molly's still unsure, but seems to calm a bit thanks to Fjord's reassurance and Shaun's calmness. He blinks at the mention of purpleness, looking down at his hand with a small smile and then showing it to the sorcerer happily.

He knows purple. He knows lavender and violet and plum. ]

Empty!

[ For once, the word is a little happier. ]

[halforc]

[ Holding back a sigh, he wraps an arm around Molly to resettle him and gives Shaun a significant look. ]

Maybe we can introduce him to the Clerics once he's not so jumpy. [ The tray is brought closer and Fjord taps Molly on the arm to point it out, continuing to talk to Gilmore. ] Thank you for doing this, it's a massive help.

[gloriouslygood]

Yes, you are incredibly fabulous Molly. It's why you're one of my favorite people. You are not afraid of color and that's a wonderful thing.

[ Since Fjord doesn't feel the clerics are necessary, Shaun stops messaging. ]

Anything you two need today, you can ask me. I'm happy to help. [ Truly, he is. He can't imagine how unsettled and scared those two must feel right now. If he can do something as simple as this, he will. ]

[devilstongue]

[ The tiefling is still hiding a bit behind Fjord, only poking his head out a little under Fjord's soothing arm. He's so very different from the confident person he's been before, making himself small rather than taking up space with his personality. ]

Empty.

[ Molly says in return to Shaun's words, and is then distracted by the food. Curiously, he he picks at the offered breakfast and puts a piece of bread in his mouth. It's good, but his nose leads him to the hot cocoa. He picks the mug up and disappears with his treat behind Fjord's body again. ]

[halforc]

... He's saying that a lot.

[ Arm around Molly as the tiefling hides, Fjord looks over to Shaun with a hopeless optimism fighting to stay in place in his eyes. ]

Have you ever heard about anything like this happening before?

[gloriouslygood]

I can't say I have. I know there are spells that can befuddle the mind and confuse but I don't know anyone here who would cast something like that.

[ And he's certainly never seen anything like this on his travels. It's magic of some sort though. ]

And it's not the Augur's usual tricks. Perhaps it's emotional rather than magical?

[devilstongue]

[ Molly seems content behind Fjord right now, sipping hot chocolate with an entranced purr. Any noise that he hasn't heard before makes him twitch, though, and that's easily felt when he's leaning slightly against the half-orc's back. Even things like someone walking outside is so new and strange that it is overwhelming. ]

[halforc]

Emotional?

[ He looks from Shaun to Molly, the sadness in his chest turning into a deeper pit. ]

Like he's doing this to himself?

[gloriouslygood]

Maybe. I don't know, Fjord. I'm guessing here. Maybe Molly needed to be empty for awhile. But when you look at him, scared and unsettled, I can't think this is actually more emotionally healing.

[ Shaun shrugs, wishing he could be more helpful. He's a sorcerer and a businessman. He's not really a cleric. ]

I don't know him as well as you though.

[devilstongue]

[ Molly sticks his nose out again from behind Fjord, giving them both a confused look. he doesn't know what they're really talking about, but it's making the green man - Fjord - sad. ]

Empty..?

[halforc]

[ Sighing with sagging shoulders, he notices Molly's worried look and half-turns to wrap him up in a hug, kissing the side of his head. ]

It's okay, Molls, I'm okay. See? [ He smiles for effect, then glances at Shaun. ] Is it alright if I message you again, if we need help?
