“Pikey?” Grog says, stopping. For a stretch he pauses, clearly thinking. “You want me to carry you up?”
Slowly, only slightly miserably, honest Papaw, she nods.

Summary
He runs his hand over the door as he pushes it open. Even with how little they’ve all spent here, he’s worn a little patch of the door smoother and shinier with how much time he spends behind it. It’s a reminder, too. Vox Machina want him with them. He’d hoped and he’d prayed, and Vox Machina had come for him. Vox Machina has made space for him, and accepted even his worst parts.
Do you want them dead? Grog had asked.
He doesn’t know. But whether he does or not, he knows Vox Machina is with him. You don’t have to get involved, he’d said. Tried to offer them an out. No reason for them all to fall with him.
Oh, said Vex. We are so involved.

Summary
“Did you know?” Cass asks and she sees him flinch.
“No!” he says. “No. God, Cass, if I’d known-”
He pauses, his mouth working, but- she does know her brother, even now. He’s always preferred to mislead with the truth than tell an outright lie.
“I saw you get shot down,” he says. “After- after everyone all I could think was of course we’re all going to die. I- it never occurred to me you might survive, not until they said- I’m so sorry, Cassandra. If I’d known-”

Summary
Percy’s late for dinner again. This isn’t uncommon - honestly, before they’d gotten together, Vex is pretty sure the only reason Percy ate regularly was that he would be dragged (down from his room, or up from his workshop as the case may be) to eat with them: left to his own devices his timekeeping goes out the window.
So- she knows to expect this. She’d known to expect this from before they’d gotten together - this is standard Percy behaviour, losing track of time. But… it’s one thing to know and another thing to experience. It’s one thing to know his terrible timekeeping but also to have the evidence of how readily he makes time for her and projects for her and for her worries. It’s one thing to be aware it might happen, it’s another for it to happen three days in a row and god but she wishes she could rely on him to be there.
There are days, especially recently, when she’d really like for him to be there.

Summary
Percy has been actively avoiding Syldor Vessar since the man arrived in Whitestone - mostly on principle, for how the man had treated Vex and Vax but also partly, he’d admit, because the man’s a bureaucrat and a politicking little rat with, so far as Percy can tell, no personal morals or real sense of honour.
Unfortunately, he’s the one at home when Syldor Vessar comes calling.

Summary
He’s no jeweller, not really, for all he used to dabble in clockmaking - there’s a reason he wanted to commission Senokir rather than attempt to make certain things himself - but he’s not averse to learning new skills and if there’s ever a time to learn new skills it’s now.

Summary
Grog can feel his knees getting stiffer when he goes to sit down or stand up. When he walks too long or carries something too heavy he aches in the not-fun way - not the ache of a job well done but the ache of ow.
He knows why this is - he’s not completely stupid - so he pulls Pike and Scanlan aside one evening to talk, once the kids are in bed.
