[ No luck, just fascination! ]

I am a sort of bard, yes. What sort of emergency, professional favour? I'm sure I can try at least, whatever it is.

[child_of_bhaal]

The LIEs group has decided to abscond with threeof my actors.

[It's not quite a growl, but it sounds like it might want to have been.]

I would owe you, if you could see your way into jumping in.

[falselife]

Really?

[ The proposal starts with something grim. But it ends with something intriguing. ]

I'm sorry about your actors. I- well, I've never been an actor before, not professionally, so I don't know how good I would be compared to everyone else. But, I think I could find a way to jump in. If you think I'd be able to do it.

[child_of_bhaal]

So am I.

[They're not the first people to get involved with her, in some way, just to suddenly vanish. In fact, it's become rather... epidemic. But, she's not going to unload that on Juniper. She's going to try to save her debut production, and work about all that after.]

I think you'll be great, and Pip and I are here to help you. If you're really sure, I can get you the script tonight. You'll be picking up the Nurse role. She's funny, and kind. Blunt. Channel Imoen and you'll be set, really.

[ There's a moment there where she thinks to offer something comforting. And if Syeira had chosen to unload whatever is on her mind, Juniper would have accepted it - but the subject is shifted, so she follows that thread instead. ]

I'd like that, if you can. And, [ With a bit of a laugh, ] Alright. I think I can do that.

[Juni well eventually learn, that Syeira will advocate people sharing their burdens, and then pretend that she doesn't have any. It's her job to take care of everyone else.]

You're saving my life, you know that? And also, this is paid work. I wouldn't ask you to give up your time for free.

[ Another soft laugh, something she seems to give freely. It also probably says something that Juniper hadn't even thought of payment until it's directly mentioned. ]

Thank you, Syeira. Imoen gives me more gifts than I give her, so I'll find her something nice with my earnings. Seems only right, if I'm going to borrow her personality.

[child_of_bhaal]

I recommend a surprise glitter bomb.

[Hey, her sister would appreciate it!]

Thank you so much, Juniper. Really. I swear, everything that can go wrong- Well.

[falselife]

That does sound like something she'd like.

You're welcome, Syeira. Managing a production sounds like a lot of work and wrangling of people, even without things going wrong.
