Horseriver & J1's first meeting
their whole relationship was very good
fantasy early age & scifi far future meeting at important points of similarities
that dream with B and Jedao still stands out a lot for me.
Horseriver just, absolutely in spite of himself ending up being a more responsible authority than Jedao was used to
the bar was in hell but by god he made the effort to wriggle over it
Horseriver: I have given up on being responsible for anyone and have cast away that part of myself for despair
Horseriver, meeting Jedao: ....look
please have One (1) standard buddy
always and forever Fives and J1 in the Enclosure (though J1 helping Fives try and remember himself before that was excellent too)
and also them in... god, J1's warden's spaceship barracks
and Jedao killing him so he could reset with the death toll and lose the horns from the fucked up animal experiments on the island
and I can't remember the specifics of any of it anymore, but Porthos and Kahl were so good ;_;
Porthos defending him from the boggart of Enefa ;;
and there was a thread where I remember Porthos being really mad at him about not caring about innocents
and it didn't really get through at the time but he really appreciated that Porthos actually listened to him even though he disagreed
oooh, I remember that one, yes!
Maybe it's cheating since it was a threeway thread, but Poker Night was good. As was Jedao and Gojyo's fight leading up to it.
I was re-reading it recently and kept tearing up
Also, way back:
Jedao: "Hey, about that thing with Kikimora..."
Sebastian: "Oh, do you disagree with her punishment?"
Jedao: "No I think Malcolm treated you very badly and I'd like to defend you."
Sebastian: [error]
(That whole thing had like three wardens coming to Sebastian's defense at once and he'd never experienced it before.)
