[On the evening of the second, Killian remembers to do a thing]

For the record, Ariel and I are safely in Vegas and it's just as weird as I remember it, only with more cultists who we have thankfully managed to avoid. Relatedly, if anyone in Vegas wants to meet up, I think can manage something before we have to leave...sometime, I know we're planning on being back in Locke sometime next week.

[He's tired, can you tell. A quick wave to the camera and then he ends the feed. He starts it up again in a few minutes, though this time with a filter.]

[Locked to Friends and Family of Killian and Ariel]

[And now he is the most unamused Dwarf]

Okay, which asshole planted the phone? Fil says it wasn't him but.

[youngestone]

Wow, don't sound so excited man, you might pull a muscle.

[arrowpoint]

[This face.]

[youngestone]

Look dude, you're an okay guy but if you're going to be an ass about me dating Ariel, I won't hesitate to give you a piece of my mind.

[arrowpoint]

I didn't say anything!

[youngestone]

Yeah, and you think I haven't figured it out? I have been with Ariel for nearly a week non-stop y'know. You're pissy because I'm dating her for some reason.

[arrowpoint]

That's not the problem!

[youngestone]

Then what is the problem? Because it's starting to piss her off, and that means I'm getting pissed off. You really don't wanna piss me off, man. You might go deaf.

[arrowpoint]

Ú-iston!

[youngestone]

I speak Khuzdul, some Icelandic, and English man. I haven't picked up the Elvish from Ariel.

[arrowpoint]

Im pennich ú-iston!

[Huge frustrated noise.]

Fuck.

[Deep breath. Then defeated sounding;]

... I don't know. I just don't know, man.

[youngestone]

Well, whatever the problem is, I hope you figure it out soon because unless something drastic happens I don't think we're going to end up separating, Liam. I like Ariel. A lot. Like, possibly more than just "like". If this is because I'm not religious or because, I dunno, because I'm turning into a Dwarf, do us all a favor and remember that all of that means fuck all on the Things That Make You a Decent Person chart.

[Liam's face twists up as he keeps opening and closing his mouth, as if he was trying to say something, but unable to find the words.]

...Just... get her home safe.

[youngestone]

She's the one driving.

[Just saying]

Trust me, she's not going to get hurt.

[arrowpoint]

Maer.

[He sighs, then looks like he wants to say something else. He can't find the right words, however, nor was he sure he could say them in English, so he just shakes his head and ends the video.]
