Chateau Grief 21

Esme: So what did you do? What are you here for?

Kore: If I had to guess...probably selling chemical weapons to third world dictators.

Esme: You didn't. That's not funny.

Esme: Now me, I got sent here under the impression...that I was joining a research group...for postdoctorate anthrologistics at UC Berkeley.

Kore: That's not even a word.

Esme: I know. I was such a chump.

Telepathy(Xander): This time it won't miss, Kore, get moving.

Kore: Is there some special justification for that woman throwing things at you?

Esme: I'm joining a new guild. For obvious reasons.

Author Notes:

lovin' that California produce.

Episode Recap:

Esme tries to ask Kore a legitimate question, what got you sent to Eynhallow? Why do people get sent to Eynhallow at all, right? Kore brushes her off, but ominously. Esme volunteers that she was sent to Eynhallow because she thought it was a research project at her university. This is what happens when you piss of UC professors kids, powerful people will ruin your life. So do your homework. Meanwhile a garden gnome is throwing vegetables at them, because…well, before we get to that, there’s a heated, vivid exchange of unpleasantness between Esme and gnome, and things escalate to the throwing of a hammer, which would have knocked a few teeth out of Esme’s head at the very least had not Kore suddenly discovered she’s now telekinetic. Esme doesn’t notice she’s so mad. I’m using the sparkles as a visual aid to the reader, the other characters can’t see that. All the telepaths probably can though as they feel the other gather power. Anyways it comes out that garden gnome is Esme’s former guild master, and they’ve had a falling out. Esme probably doesn’t want to go around dressed as a garden gnome anymore.
