📲 CHARIOT para GENNY/INSTRUTOR: E também queria saber se, por acaso... Eu não deixei meu casaco com você? Saí com um pouco de pressa ontem, foi mal

Like, he just outright says "You won't regret it. At least until an hour or so from now." when you go to buy food from him, he's in-charge of the children who run around after that rat and if you say you don't want his food he says "You'll be back." which... I admire the confidence.

The dialogue is also a bit weird, since it seems like he's supposed to be hiding the nature of the meat in his food "Typically, I find it goes down better if I leave people guessing. So what do you say, want some?", but, of course, in-game we know what's dog, what's squirrel, what's rat and so on. He also references a 'stewpot' when talkin' about his 'little helpers', but... only 1 item he sells in-game is a 'stew' (Mole rat stew). Was there gonna be more stews or is this me being too literal with Genaro's dialogue? I don't know. I also don't know just how Genaro compensates his 'little helpers', presumably he cooks the food they get him and his selling of it is for water. He possibly also provides shelter as he'd presumably have a home or at least a place to sleep in-story. He implies that he's not any of their parent, so they're presumably orphaned or abandoned kids.

Yves turns around only to come face to face with the boy he’s been avoiding. Up close Genaro is just as handsome as Yves remembers him to be, and he’s especially annoyed by the part of him that keeps noticing the little things on the man’s face that he used to love. Still loves, if his racing heart is anything to go by. “Hey. You made it to the party,” Yves starts off polite, keeping both hands around his glass to avoid toughing the other. “And you look very handsome.”

This takes place in the Fritz Route, after Hildyr got freed.

Myth wantedto sigh when he felt yet another pull at his spell controlling the king. The spell’sworkings were easy enough. Cut the connection where mind interacted with body andput the body either on remote control or let it follow a set routine.

It had the advantagethat he didn’t need to micro manage the king into doing the basic things ofkeeping himself alive. If there was food placed in front of him, he would eatit. At specific points in time he would move to the dining room, his sleepingquarters, the throne room or where ever Myth directed him to.

“Why do youeven keep trying to get control back? It wouldn’t help you anything. Not evenimprove your situation!” he glared at the man and felt the man’s mind reel, surprisinglydefiant looking how passive he had always been. And angry. Myth wanted tolaugh.

“Oh,blaming the witches on everything again? Do you really think it’s my fault? Sure, I guarded the Tenebrarumand showed the princess where it was, but I didn’t force her into freeing hermother. She still believed what she knew. Her mother loved her. You don’t care.You have more important things to take care of and direct your attention to,”Myth smiled at the way the mind recoiled, making it much less tasking to reinstatefull control, but well… a little gloating was allowed.

“It was so easy in comparison to how difficultit would have been, if you had botheredwith her, you know? But after you had ignored her for months? You couldn’t havemade it much easier for me. And then pretending it never happened and giving up so easily again!” The mind reeled, projectingmisery and guilt.

“It all happenedbecause of you. Because you feared the tantrum of a witch, who hadn’t evengrown into her powers yet. Imagine it: One day to tell her the truth, a fewdays -maybe weeks- to let her calm down and then? No more hiding, no more lies,no more secrets… But no- you wanted to be done with this part of your live. Andthis decision made the part come right back.”

Leaningback in his seat, Myth closed his eyes, basking in the fury, guilt and miserythe king was throwing against the ropes of the spell.

“Are youeven aware that Hildyr will most likely kill you, if you break that spell?” Onelast struggle- nothing. Myth smiled, showing teeth and feeling utterly elated.
