@palevurm || SPIRALEFES STARTER CALL
Rung had asked the Pale King to accompany him on his visit to the star garden. Things had happened during the last bout of Spirale chaos, things that Rung felt might need to be addressed before they interfered with Pale King’s therapy. He wanted to address them here, outside of his office; the Wyrm was already having some difficulty opening up during sessions, and treating their odd, painful interaction as an “issue” to be overcome there probably wouldn’t help. Rung wanted this to be as casual and as free of discomfort as possible, and he could think of nowhere more comfortable for a pair of gods than the beauty of the heavens.
“Thank you for coming with me,” he said warmly, bending to examine a little tri-mooned planet with unabashed affection. Among other things, recent events had brought with them memories. All of them. Those millennia still locked behind the veil of information creep had rushed to the forefront of his processor-- he had lived as Primus again, here, and that strange return to the past filled him with an aching sort of nostalgia for simpler times. Being in this garden was like being out there; it was pleasant enough to make the conversation at hand barely feel awkward at all.
“I wanted to ask how you were doing after... all of that. Not as your therapist, just as an acquaintance. I’m still trying to come back to ‘myself’-- it’s been a terribly disorienting ordeal. I’d imagine it’s been especially so for you, I mean... undergoing a physical and mental change can’t be easy.”
