So, here's what happened. One house turned into like, a bunch? Just scattered around the apt. So in short, it's a work in progress.
[But to give Tyki an example he snaps a picture of one made of bottles and cans, it looks like a castle, and sends it to him as an attachment! If he looks carefully he'll see Edward's wing sticking out of the entrance.]
[Tyki is beyond impressed. Considering what Sal has to work with, it's amazing. It's one thing to make a stereotypical little pet house out of traditional materials. But it's a lot harder to do something this grand with what looks like gathered scraps.] Looks good so far. How does Edward like it? [He does see that little wing, and he saves the picture for sentimental reasons.]
i think he likes it alright. he perches on the top bottle all the time when i'm moving around and when i settle down if he doesn't chill on my head he goes inside. im making one for each room and maybe a couple more for the living area. i figure it's just me so i have space and no one to get annoyed by the random little houses around the place hahaha
well you did entrust him to me so i dont blame you i bet edward would appreciate it if i told him you ask after him all the time im starting to think he likes the attention
[That's probably because Sal spoils the shit out of him but that is neither here nor there.]
he does! whenever i talk about you he starts making noises. you know i think he'd like it if he spent some time with you even? i should bring him out more when we hang out.
[He doesn't know how their memory works or age but he makes sure Edward remembers where he literally came from!!!]
[Tyki didn't know that he could feel so touched about a golem. But somehow, he really is happy right now. For Sal, for Edward too. And for himself, in a selfish way. He doesn't understand the simple love that golems are capable of. But experiencing it is overwhelming somehow despite that.]
Golem playdates. What will we think up next? I would like to see him again from time to time.
oh noooo whatever will i do lmao that's not such a bad thing, honestly im glad i met you, it's nice to have people i know i can trust in this crazy place
It's almost always better when a person isn't alone. No worries lad, we'll make it just fine here together. And I know you're grown and don't need someone to coddle you, but if you ever need anything you know where my shop is.
[He most certainly has never seen her before, but that won't stop him from greeting this stranger in a pleasant manner. Well, as pleasant as he can with a mask on. He at least keeps his tone friendly and even offers a little wave.]
At any rate, any friend of Tyki's is definitely a friend of his.]
Hey, Margaery. [A queen? Damn.] It's cool to meet you.
[she smiles brightly and waves back. and she's never seen anyone here with a mask before, but she assumes he has his reasons. and it would be rude to ask about them as they've just met.
and vice versa.
alas, she's now dead, but she clings to her old title as she worked very hard to obtain it] It's lovely to meet you, too! How long have you been here?
Uhhh. [He scratches at the side of his head, fingers brushing against the buckles making his mask shift a little.] A few months already...it's kind of hard to tell, you know? How about you?
[she nods in understanding at his words] It can be terribly hard to keep track of time here. I try to measure it by when the new arrivals come, but even then I'm sure I've missed a month or two. I believe I've been here a year and a half. A respectable length of time.
A year and a half. Damn, every time I hear about someone being here for more than a year it's crazy.
[It often makes him think about his own time here. Will he be one of those people? Or will he be gone tomorrow? Slipping out as suddenly as he slipped in, without a word to the friends he's made here. As much as he misses home the longer he stays her the more frightening a thought that is.]
That's a good point about the arrivals, though. I think I'll try and track time like that too.
[a friendly laugh] It's far better than the alternative which awaited me back home.
[which was death. and nothingness. she'd take anything over that, even taking into account how much she hates the so-called gods for manipulating her emotions]
Thank you. I've found it easiest to mark time by.
So, what sort of world do you come from, Sal? I may call you Sal?
[Hm, yeah, that doesn't surprise him. He's seen some people who would prefer to be here rather than home. And it's not a terrible place, he thinks, despite all the terrible things that happen. That's life, right?]
Yeah, sure. Sal or Sally is cool. Uh, it's kind of hard to explain a whole world. I don't know what years are like for you but I'm from 1990. I live in this apartment building in this place called Nockfell. Lot's of cool people in there. We have a totally huge ghost problem though, but most of them seem harmless enough. I'm friends with some.
[she wouldn't necessarily be here, she would be in the 2017 of Matt Murdock, the man she loves. but while she's here, she will endure]
Then I'll call you Sal! And that's nothing like my world. Where I'm from, ghosts are considered a myth. [she thinks a moment] But apparently, a great many myths of my youth have been proven true. So why not ghosts? I can imagine that it would be lonely as a ghost. It's good that you can provide them with friendship.
[she thinks for a moment] If I were a ghost, I'm not sure I'd be willing to parade for the circus of noteriety, either.
[her expression sobers] The White Walkers. The dead who can rise again, intent on one thing: killing every living being they encounter. Were I still queen, I could--I could do something about that threat, but I'm dead and gone and beyond all influence.
It's--well, it it is what it is. I have given Jon and Daenerys my best advnce as it will be them who face the onslaught of the White Walker horde, but there is only so much a person can do from afar.
Yes. Yes, it is. Highgarden is the most beautiful keep in all of Westeros and it makes me sick to think of it falling into the hands of someone other than a Tyrell. Though, all of us but grandmother are dead.
I--I wanted to apologize. For the absolutely abominable way I treated you during the latest machinations of the so-called gods. I hope you have it in your heart to forgive me.

Hello! My name is Margaery Tyrell, Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. I'm a friend of Tyki's. He recommended making your acquaintance.

I'm sure having that kind of advantage will help them a lot. I bet they'll be fine with your advice.
Re: video
I do hope so. I may never be able to return, but Westeros was home. I'd not see it destroyed if I can help it.

[Come to think of it he hasn't done much of that since he got here.]

Wanna go? Might find train tracks.
[ He has no idea what the chances of that are, but hey, it could be fun. ]

yeah let's do it it'll be kickass
[The chances are probably zilch but it's all about the fun adventure.]

[ And with that, Maine sends a ~convenient meeting location~ and a picture of what he looks like. Important, since they've yet to meet in person. ]
Hard to miss.
