NPC CONTACT

▪
While the Bonded pair are particularly busy - between their everyday work for the Coven and Parliament, and looking for answers to new arrivals' questions - they've placed a mailbox outside the Coven gates for anyone to leave a letter for them. These can be non-urgent queries, updates for Nessie or Mhairi, requests for in-person appointments, etc.
You can also reach them both by watch now! They've gotten their own, and will answer at their earliest availability. However, if your message or request for them is time sensitive, it's always recommended that you seek them out at the Coven itself, especially to reach Miss Nessie. Relaying messages through Parliament can be difficult, but this is also an option, if Mhairi is currently attending a session.
If you wish to interact with Nessie and Mhairi outside of the intro logs, please comment here. You have the option of handwaving the IC interaction to OOCly ask what questions your character might have for them, for us to summarize an answer for, or you can request an IC thread. Simply specify in your comment's subject IC or OOC, comment to the specific NPC you'd like to contact, and we'll respond accordingly. If you're looking to speak to both, please respond to the toplevel below.
Face-to-face IC interactions are granted in special OOC circumstances, such as follow-ups to quests, investigations, or a previous thread. OOC "handwaving" of a face-to-face interaction is still good to go!

surely eren has come to see woof mom on handwaved occasions (pls), and she would be pleased with how dragony he’s become and how he’s absolutely okay with it! a good boy. a very good boy. he listened to her and he had bonds and he’s been snooping.
except one day, this day, he comes in looking like he’s aged a few extra wrinkles to his face, his hair, and— his height! but most of all, he just looks tired and unruly. like life hit him with too many bricks but he’s chosen to eat every last one.
he’ll give her a quiet hello, a line or two of how he’s been (it’s curt and an ample sort of answer that doesn’t quite explain the lack of what spark of life he used to have, it’s almost sad) and would like to ask if they’ve gathered anything new from the looking glass house and its mirrors.
(don’t worry, he wants to talk about slavery too, but l8r)

Of course he's come to see her on handwaved occasions, god she's so proud of him. What a good lad, with a good head on his shoulders. She knew that he would be ok so long as he rolled with it, and it seemed like he could roll with it, so she's not worried about him. (The real worry is other people, especially since... dragon........)
But the change is... unexpected. Even for a Monster, their changes and shifts shouldn't have this much of a physical change on them that they look like they've aged. The confusion is subdued, compared to what someone else would display, but for woof mom it's very obvious. The only new information they can offer is that they believe that when a mirrorbound has left, their mirror shows damage - they've been receiving reports of mirrorbounds going missing, which has been matched up with reports of mirrors in the LGH being fine one day, then being seen broken the next.
They don't know what it means yet.
... but he has something to say, doesn't he.

he tried to return through the mirror’s images, tried to break the mirror himself, but nothing else happened after that. he just remembers as if he were there.
what sort of magic would the mirrors fall under, anyway? space-time magic? forbidden magic?
