[ fidelio is back in his usual clothes as well, thankfully, with his backpack on the seat beside him. (i have to include this to convey the 12 year old vibe of his outfit because it is Something.) ]
Settin' a low bar for what's worthy of a toast here, but. [ raises his beer glass. ] Sure, why not.
Usually, but not always. I was chosen for an important mission, and it wound up taking me there, if only briefly. And I know individuals who have made pacts with devils who have spent more time there, but still walk on the material plane to this day.
Nothin' that personal. Just waitin' to see whether the king the people choose is the one who wants to work toward makin' things better or the one who's gonna raze it to the bloody ground.

Wonder if we'll eventually be able to see what's been happening in our worlds since, or if things'll stay as cut off as they seem to be right now.
