I've heard good things about Magnus. Maybe Anya and I could tag team him with Dominate. We could try to get him free by following our combined wills. Never did that before. But that's a form of control too.
I think biting him did some of that? Made him less focused on the Eye, drowned it out.
well that is a better solution if you wanted to try
it is a form of compulsion, yes? i can do that with blood but he would have to drink, and i think the eye would remove it from his system like those curses
I know you don't want to hurt him. I trust you, I do.
[ ... ]
Do you think the side effects of being a Ghoul or...a thrall would keep him safe if we ripped the Eye out of him? I can't even understand how it works. There has to be a way to put distance between him and it.
thralls become stronger, faster, more hardy through drinking my blood, but it is an addiction like you said over time that addiction makes them pliant and obedient to the one whose blood they drink
garlic is the cure. it takes the taint from their bodies you could try that on your ghouls, i do not know if they are the same
but at any rate the added strength is temporary thralls die in time. being one might grant him added strength in the moment, perhaps enough to survive his own death. but we would have to cure him or he would simply be attached to me instead of the eye
Ghouls are kind of the same. Stronger, faster, can heal faster. They age so much slower. But they're so addicted and there's no cure to the blood bond. It's horrible.
He'd hate us and I don't want to hurt him that way. He'll never trust us and it'll just make it worse. I got pissed at him the other day and he thought I was abandoning him.
I know. I like him a lot. He's a good person. He makes shitty fucking decisions and doesn't know how to stay out of trouble. But...
He probably values your opinion and thinks you'd be disappointed.
He used his power, intentionally or not, and found out my Dominant was going to die. And then told him without asking if he wanted to know. And so my friend was depressed and fell off the drinking wagon for a fucking month. He's still out of sorts. I've been going with him to every bar to keep him from drowning himself in liquor.
that was my guess also, you are very defensive about it perhaps i was right :)
but yes, i am talking about cullen. i told jon i would kill him if he made an attempt. jon thinks he may be capable of it it is why i thought magic would be the key to removing the eye from him

no subject
but he has not the freedom to make such decisions without the eye's influence
unless we could suppress it in some way, to let him think beyond its reach
are there any witches you trust? as i say i would consult dorian, but he will not help jon
i suppose i could reach out to magnus bane...

See if it's possible.
She's older than I am.
Christ, Rafa, you mean make him a Ghoul?
I could do that but he'd hate it.
It'd be awful.
no subject
no we call them thralls
it is reversible
but i would not do it, anyway
i wish him no harm of any kind, ava
i want to help him.
no subject
Because Ghouls kind of get addicted to it.
I know you don't want to hurt him.
I trust you, I do.

everyone thinks that he is so difficult
if they knew the sweetness in him
every time i speak to him he thinks he is in trouble
why were you angry with him what happened?
no subject

your boyfriend is hawke?
no subject
I don't have a boyfriend.
Why do you listen to Jon instead of asking me?
[ DAD, PLEASE. ]
no subject
but did you know that hawke's friend has threatened to kill jon??
[ HE DOESN'T APPROVE OF THIS BOYFRIEND, AVA. ]
no subject
And he's not
and you didn't talk to me about it.
And are you talking about Cullen?
He kicked our fucking door in.
That guy's on my shitlist too.
no subject
also, you are very defensive about it
perhaps i was right :)

no subject
I just don't want people to get the wrong idea.
[ And 24 hours from now, she and Hawke are going to have that conversation, soooo.... ]
What kind of magic does this guy use?
Hawke told me he's a Templar and is anti-magic but I don't know what that means.
no subject
perhaps ignacio would know. he knows some magic, i could ask him
or magnus.
i do not suppose you know where this cullen resides do you
[ He needs to do some recon. Some might call it stalking. ]
no subject
Don't.
no subject
i did not say anything.

I'll do you one better.
Give me a few minutes.
[ And then he'll get a picture text of the list of people in the apartments. The name C. Rutherford shows up for 85-A. ]
Why do you want to see him?
no subject
thank you
so that i can easily find him if he steps out of line. i am tired of the people i care for being hurt
no subject
But I agree with you.
