<p>(True Name tries to guide the talks toward simply finding out more information thinking of gaining the upper hand to prepare for some sort of exchange or power imbalance, then simply to tries maintaining control over the situation, but for once, she’s out of her league. Their goal is basically ensuring greater continuity of all races (similar to TN/Jonas’s stated goals, stated later))</p>

<p>“Please, just True Name is fine, but welcome all the same. Shall we?”</p>

<p><em>“Please.”</em> Dear sounded its usual self, Codrin was pleased to note. No sourness or anger colored its tone.</p>
|

<p>At the table, introductions were made. Tycho remained as nervous as he had before, but ey was happy to see that he had at least gotten some sleep at some point, and none of the exhaustion that had gnawed at him last they spoke was evident.</p>

<p>Answers Will Not Help looked much as the Odists that resembled Michelle did, though far happier and more ebullient than any Codrin had met. She seemed always to be smiling or on the edge of laughter. “Delighted to meet you all. Codrin, I have heard so much about you. And Dear, how long has it been?”</p>

<p>Why Ask Questions looked much as the Odists that resembled Michelle did, though far happier and more ebullient than any Codrin had met. She was, as she had been two decades previous, a shithead.

<p>The fox grinned, nodded its head to her. <em>“I believe nigh on sixty years. You are looking well.”</em></p>

<p>“As are you! Your partner did not wish to join us?”</p>

<p>In the light of the candle, Codrin watched as the fox’s grin faltered, and ey suspected that it was taking it a good amount of energy to maintain a pleasant façade for dinner. <em>“They were not able to make it, no, but they send their best.”</em></p>

<p>The Odist laughed. “No fucking clue. My guess is that it is a hedge, that they are wanting to meet with on both spaces so that we can see what their lives are like while we see what theirs are like, but also it gives them a chance ensure that we still meet on territory that they control, just in case we decide to murder all of them when they arrive.”</p>

<p>Ey raised eir glass and smiled warily, returning the subtle squeeze that Dear gave eir hand. Ey was thankful for the dim light of the candle, which let em make out the features of the two Odists sitting across from em, but not a whole lot more; ey could only hope that the same was true for them.</p>
