[Kravitz very rarely makes himself known on the network, but this is one of those things he feels is Important in a way he can't ignore. It's not that he's looking for pity- rather, he just needs to inform people. There's no tragedy in passing. There's no fear in something he can't reach.

He wishes he could believe that anymore.]

Hello, uhm-- this is Kravitz. For those who may be looking for them, it seems Lup, Taako, and Ren have all departed from the island. My apologies to those who used their services or... simply knew them. I'm not able to carry on the magic they did, but I'll do my best in providing what you need if you were getting some kind of service or items from their store.

[He takes a breath, but it's shaky, and forces any other uncertainty out of his tone.]

I'd also like to remind everyone that we do have a library here containing many resources and a workspace for study. Contributions are always welcome, and I have a number of archived pieces from other islands for study as well. Feel free to contact me if I am not around and I will come to assist.

That... that is all.

[ooc: Kravitz has a shiny new library page on his journal now, if people want to get involved!!]

don't tend to go there so not really no

[Arguably, he needs therapy quite a bit. Arguably, because he's sure as hell not disclosing his shit to anyone if he can help it. Not unless they're already in the know.]

[deathfindsaway]

I expected as much. But I would still feel remiss not to mention it to you as well.

I appreciate your concern, though. It's kind of you.

[postictal]

[He feels like he's been unrelentingly rude this whole time and now he gets that he's "kind"?]

got some pretty low standards don't you

[deathfindsaway]

I feel as though I should remind you that Taako is my boyfriend. Most make judgement of my standards based on him.

Personally, I don't care about perceived 'standards'. You took the time where you did not need to. I know a kindness when I see it, no matter the scope of it's impact.

[postictal]

yeah and

[As far as Tim knows, the worst Taako has done is...set up a shop in the Storyteller's Temple? And that wasn't even a bad thing.]

that's pretty much the bare minimum for decency

[deathfindsaway]

The standards of what is decent, and the effort someone is willing to go through for another, are entirely subjective. You made a choice. I am simply glad you made the choice to be kind.

I needn't press this further. Just know you have my sincere thanks.

[postictal]

[There's no way to respond to this without coming across as a dick. Is there?]

[No. Not really.]

fine
whatever

[deathfindsaway]

[And yet, it proves his point. He choses not to do it. He choses kindness.]

Alright. I'll speak with you when I see you. And keep your words in mind.

[And he closes out of the conversation, trying to respond to others who have questions and words for him.]
