I realized the other day that it will have been 8 years since Solomon's Temple for Malik this July.
sailor bii
dang
Helluva Bix
He's from 5 after for Canon point and this will be his third July in Syn
sailor bii
jeez
Helluva Bix
Yeah, it's been that long since he's used a bow
Helluva Bix
He's only had the metal arm for.... A little over a year and a half?
Helluva Bix
He's gonna be 33 in the autumn
Helluva Bix
November-ish
a little cori.
...so birthday party for Cal and Malik later this year is what I'm understanding from this.
Helluva Bix
Malik's is "just before winter" I decided
Helluva Bix
He also doesn't really know the specific date (because we don't have one)
Helluva Bix
Yep. Jerks
feral ghūl fall
Altair shedding low-key salt about it as he futzes with his calendars
feral ghūl fall
Holmes did i ever tell you that last year, Altair's Christian and Muslim birthdays fell on OOC Halloween and New Years Eve
Helluva Bix
and now Malik has a bit of of "really bro" at Altair
Helluva Bix
it's going to be entertaining
feral ghūl fall
I DID NOT PLAN IT
feral ghūl fall
not that he told anyone lol
Helluva Bix
birthdays aren't super important.
feral ghūl fall
i doubt he even knew, since no one in liminal is really sure what date it is
Helluva Bix
it's like "oh, cool. I'm not dead yet."
feral ghūl fall
he just counts from his own timeline
feral ghūl fall
Altair still doesnt understand why birthdays are a big deal
Helluva Bix
neither does Malik, it's fine.
Helluva Bix
....malik's only being 1% petty there.
Helluva Bix
"you like to interrogate people, sit down and have some tea while we discuss this"
Helluva Bix
SORRY NOT SORRY
feral ghūl fall
RUDE
feral ghūl fall
ALTAIR'S READY TO JUST WALK THE FUCK OUT
feral ghūl fall
actually let me just
Helluva Bix
meanwhile, Malik
Helluva Bix
like, really Altair. Really. You're going to get huffy about waiting for a real explanation?
feral ghūl fall
oh dont worry, malik gave him something else to be huffy about now :')
feral ghūl fall
also, i didnt know that ichor death was like vamp death
คςєภคгtєς๏
where is huffiness happening i wanna see.
Helluva Bix
I didn't either, Malik is just assuming that an "insta kill" death is one he can't recover from
Helluva Bix
here
Helluva Bix
he can't heal a missing limb or head. :|
feral ghūl fall
meanwhile, i have fond memories
Helluva Bix
omfg
Helluva Bix
TAKE THAT ALTAIR.
Helluva Bix
"If i was still mad I would have destroyed your life."
Helluva Bix
HE DEALT WITH YOUR BULLSHIT RUNNING AWAY TO CYPRUS AND COMING BACK WITH A TEMPLAR WIFEY.
Helluva Bix
He could have friend-dumped you right then Altair.
Helluva Bix
sorry, mom and dad are fighting again
feral ghūl fall
mom and dad have about 8 years of disparity to work out, son
feral ghūl fall
meanwhile, he really hopes maria doesnt walk in
My Knee
feral ghūl fall
there's just so much he doesn't want to explain, namely, why Malik is talking about Terrible Bad End AU, and also why Altair has friendship trust issues
My Knee
"His future self trusted Malik enough to hold his infant son, after all, and he generally trusted his future self's judgment. He had married Maria." AWWW
My Knee
sorry I'm taking away the wrong information from this
feral ghūl fall
feral ghūl fall
altair is also taking the wrong info away, this was supposed to be a discussion about the merits and/or pitfalls of malik's sudden immortality
feral ghūl fall
I love how he completely ignores his future self's decision to stare into the Apple... No, great decisions all around, definitely, yep, nothing to see here
Helluva Bix
and having a son is like "of course I didd"
feral ghūl fall
"i've been wanting children, even before i thought i'd be allowed to love them"
feral ghūl fall
he's going to find it real hard not to let slip about his sons, plural, to maria
Helluva Bix
bwah haha haha
feral ghūl fall
he doesnt want to make her sad about the kids he refuses to have in Liminal, because that makes him sad
Helluva Bix
yes, well. some of Malik's angst is about his own future son
feral ghūl fall
tmw all three of them get sucked into a joint dungeon because of kid angst and it's just baby hell
My Knee
Man she doesn't want kids in this weirdass place either
Helluva Bix
...fuck. that's the third reason Malik went "yeah, immortailty". fuck. SO HE CAN BE A FATHER TO TAZIM. HE READ THE FUTURE AND HAS CHANGED IT.
Helluva Bix
fuck
Helluva Bix
feral ghūl fall
OH FUCK
Helluva Bix
SUBCONCIOUS BRAIN REASONS.
