Nothing but time

[lilywhiteiris]

Well, since it's getting colder, I thought I could help out by knitting some hats, scarves, gloves, mittens, or really warm socks for people. I can do sweaters too, but those take longer. I've already got some done. If you need them, just tell me where you live and I'll get them to you. If you have something specific in mind, don't be afraid to ask. I can do stripes, cables, ribs, all kinds of things like that.

Mr. Dresden, Mr. Armando, Mystic Mia, and Mystic Maya, I've already made a few things for you, if you'd like them. And Feenie, I have something for you, too. Though, it probably isn't much of a surprise.

Keeping out of trouble, then?

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Yes, Mr. Armando. I haven't gone out by myself, and there's been no trouble. I really can't help but worry, though.

[cafedeinfierno.livejournal.com]

Hmm.

Good to hear it. Keep on your best behavior, then.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

You'd tell me when someone finds Dahlia, right?

[cafedeinfierno.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'd tell you if I'd heard anything.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Thank you, for everything.

I'll bring you your presents later. I think you'll like them. They suit you well.

[cafedeinfierno.livejournal.com]

Ha...! Sure.

[mayaheemayahoo.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's so nice, Iris! I'm sure Sis will love it! And me too, of course!

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

I really do hope your sister likes it. Is she feeling better now?

[mayaheemayahoo.livejournal.com]

Yes, much better. We're moving out of the stadium this week.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Wonderful! If you two would ever like a cup of tea, please, let me know.

[mayaheemayahoo.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mind it. Mia's being a little more careful with what she drinks, I think...

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, that only stands to reason. Maybe just you and I, then?

[mayaheemayahoo.livejournal.com]

I'll bring Nick!

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Ah! That would be great too.

[inthephonebook.livejournal.com]

I...wow, no one ever thanks. You really didn't have to, but I'm sure I'll be glad you did come winter.

Let me know if you need to go out again, I could use the exercise.

Oh, and like I said, you can just call me Harry.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

It's the least I can do for you helping me like this.

I will, I'll probably need to take these to people later this week.

I know, I'm sorry, it's a habit.

[inthephonebook.livejournal.com]

Hey, we all have to do our part to look out for each other.

Not a problem. I can't stay cooped up in that lab all the time.

It's okay, not a problem. I've just never been a very formal kind of guy.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Exactly. There's been too many things pulling us apart lately. It's going to get harder around here with winter coming.

Is there something you're working on?

[inthephonebook.livejournal.com]

Probably, but if we stick together, we'll make it. Heck, we're doing pretty well even with the giant monster.

Nothing specifically, just trying to figure out a few clues to what's going on here.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

We are. It's all thanks to Mystic Mia, really.

Let me know if I can help at all.

[hellgun.livejournal.com]

Would you... mind knitting some for my fiancee? She doesn't fare well in cold weather.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Certainly. Does she have any colors she likes?

[hellgun.livejournal.com]

Light blue and white, I would imagine. Maybe some pink?

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Hmm. That sounds like it could be cute. I'll have it done real soon.

[hellgun.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Maybe I could make the two of you a matching set. Maybe not exactly, but they could complement each other.

[hellgun.livejournal.com]

I'm fine with what I have. But thank you.

[greennotgold]

My brother and I could use something like that. I'll have to check and make sure exactly what we'd need, though, since he already looted found some clothes from somewhere...

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

I'd be happy to help you two out. Just let me know what you need and what colors you like.

[greennotgold]

He likes red and I like green, but it's more important that they're warm, right?

Is there anything you'd like in return?

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

That is most important, but color is nice too, isn't it?

You don't owe me anything, it's my pleasure.

[greennotgold]

Yes, that's true. If you're able to make them those colors, then, we'd appreciate it.

I don't know. I mean, it's equivalent exchange...

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Certainly! I have no shortage of either color.

What is that?

[greennotgold]

Thank you, then.

It's the principle that one cannot gain anything without giving something up in return. It has its basis in alchemy, originally.

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

That's interesting. Sister Bikini says hard work is always worth the effort, so I guess that's similar. I grew up in a temple so I don't know a lot about things like that.

[greennotgold]

I thought you said your sister was named Dahlia. Do you have two sisters?

What kind of temple?

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, Sister Bikini is another nun at Hazakurain. That's where I was before I came to this city.

It's a temple of the Kurain Technique of spirit channeling. It's way up in the mountains, and it's meant as a place for training.

[greennotgold]

Oh, I see! I'm sorry, I don't know much about that sort of thing.

Spirit channeling? You mean you're one of those seance people?

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

It's not the same a a seance, but it is similar. Only the medium and the client may enter the channeling chamber. I'm not strong enough to do it, but Mystic Maya can.

[greennotgold]

Mystic Maya? Is she the person who made the post about the dead whales?

[proofsburden.livejournal.com]

You didn't have to make me anything, Iris....

[lilywhiteiris.livejournal.com]

I wanted to! I found all the pink yarn, and well... I think I just gave it away.

A scarf and some fingerless gloves would be nice... and in a dark red, too.

Are these for free?
