Devil's Nest, Saturday, January 27. 2018

The nicest part of winter was how quickly the sun went down in the evenings--gave a vampire a lot more time to get things done before bleeding from the ears and eyes, catching fire, and dying, etc., etc.

Finally back from settling some accounts in Louisiana (and jacking up the prices at Fangtasia in preparation for the Mardi Gras crowds), Eric was back in Fandom, settled into his normal spot well away from the bar.

Vampires don't serve humans, thank you very much. That's what Tiny was for.

There was a momentary mental roadblock in the way before Kanan could answer that, which he had to smack down with little things like logic - Skywalker wouldn't have invited anybody who wanted anyone else here dead. Probably. He hoped. He ran around that thought for a few moments, before jerking a thumb toward Ahsoka, over there across the room.

"She's actually... three, I think? Three years older than me," he explained. "We knew one another mostly just to see one another as kids, but I think me showing up as a teacher a few years back with her as my student threw the both of us off."

And then the island had turned him into that scared Padawan again, and just like that there wasn't really any hiding from who he'd been, anymore.

"Ahsoka?" she said, trying to do some mental math. "Okay, so you're from... when?"

"Going on nine years since the end of the Clone Wars," Kanan explained. "Or maybe it's ten? Jumping back and forth between here and home confuses things a little."

"Does time move at the same rate there?" she asked. "Or is it just like a mental time lag thing?"

"It's been mostly steady," Kanan replied, "at least so far as I can tell. But I went back for a few days, a couple months back, and here it turned out to be over a week. So I can't really be sure it's sticking, either, or just sort of sliding around, temporally speaking."

These were issues that he'd never had to consider before Fandom. Sigh.

"My sympathies. My time was mostly moving at the double the pace of Fandom's for most of high school, except when it wasn't," Jaina said.

"Except when it wasn't," Kanan echoed with a laugh. "Yeah, that sounds like Fandom, alright."

Was its main goal to confuse everyone?

It was doing a good job.

"Its fun to live somewhere that specifically tries to hurt your brain."

Jaina didn't live here anymore.

"It's all part of the charm."

It only tried to kill Kanan outright every few months.
