Kayne. He's on Eiffel's post.

And I don't want to find out. PLEASE don't fucking talk to him.

[brushoff]

[ okay but now Dorian really wants to talk to him. Note to self, teach John about reverse psychology. ]

What all can he do?

[greatoldjohn]

I didn't make that comparison for fun, Dorian.

Think about THAT except it understands you. It can *be* person shaped.

And it really really likes fucking with people.

What the King did was accidental. Incidental. Because he didn't care.

Kayne is... much more powerful. And gets *bored*.

[brushoff]

If that's the case?

Don't warn just me. I might be a magnet for supernatural nonsense but there is one lovely quality I have that the rest of the Barge lacks: I bounce back quickly. If he's that dangerous and you're that worried, put out a message to everybody else.

[greatoldjohn]

You're *not* the only one I've warned. But I'm doing it peacemeal, trying to stay under his notice.

[brushoff]

Sensible.

I won't bother him. But if he ends up bothering me? I'm keeping the conversation going. If bluntly say something like 'sorry, John told me not to talk to you,' I don't want to know what he'll do in response.

[greatoldjohn]

Or you could just *NOT ANSWER*.

[brushoff]

[ but he REALLY WANTS TO ]

I mean yeah, if you want to be 'practical' and 'sensible' and 'not let Dorian find out more about the eldritch entity his friend hates.'

[greatoldjohn]

Dorian.

Do you want your extremely hard to kill body to be used to do harm to OTHER PEOPLE because you couldn't restrain yourself from being a dickhead for five seconds?

[brushoff]

I sincerely hope you're giving Arthur Lester, someone who is EVEN WORSE THAN ME WITH REGARDS TO THIS, the same treatment.

[greatoldjohn]

Why do you think I'm typing this? I've been doing nothing BUT that.

[brushoff]

Just making sure we're on the same page!

[greatoldjohn]

As long as that page is 'minimum contact with Kayne' we absolutely are.

[brushoff]

You're no fun sometimes.

[ and so that John knows that he's slightly teasing with that, ]
