*"You screwup. You're nothing but a screwup! Look at what you've done! Call yourself an artificer, do you? How can you screw something up **This** Badly then!? Aren't students of the Arcane Sea supposed to be **Intelligent?**"*

*Moxie is having a moment. The shop she owns has been closed for a while now, and her savings are suffering for it. Felix has no idea what to say to her, and has just been sitting at the counter for hours now, bored out of his skull. Since Moxie accidentally broke Phil's summoning rune when she had a "Big idea" To improve him, he's been completely gone. For days now. Moxie has done little but lie in her bed crying her eyes out, and snapping at Felix for even daring to talk to her or say **Anything.** And considering he can't go anywhere unless she goes there too... There's not much for him to do. He never really cared for Moxie's work enough to learn anything beyond the bare basics, and being confined in the house/smithy is dull. Watching paint dry would be a fun alternative.*

"Fuckin' 'ell, Gods, you let me survive Amongko for this?"
Tammy
*Felix groans and rubs his head firmly. What the hell is he supposed to do here? He isn't built for emotional support, he's built to shoot things with a bow!

Felix internally asks, no, pleads to the gods above that Kohm visits. It would make for a nice distraction, and for a minute take his mind off of wishing he had the capacity to kill himself rather than face the miserable Oriate.*

Kohm coincidentally comes back at this moment, whistling. These few months were peaceful, and quite alright, all things considered. Moxie was coming along nicely, and even able to start experimenting with runes (under strict supervision, that is), and life around the city always never failed to give him something interesting, even when he wasn't doing anything but walking around.

 In fact, Kohm even had an idea these days regarding how to-

Coming face to face with the closed storefront, Kohm paused for a moment.
This wasn't right. It was barely afternoon!

Thinking for a bit, he knocked on the door with a frown, not thinking too much at the moment.
Tammy
*Felix clasps his hands together and plants his head on top of them, sighing deeply.*
Tom
"Dear Gods above, please accept my apology for being so impolite..."
Tammy
*Sometimes the Gods really **DO** Listen to your problems after all! Felix opens the door, and smiles upon seeing a familiar face.

Goddamn, Kohm looked... Different... These days, now that the Felinid summon thinks about it. Much more wizened. Felix can remember the guy having a much more young, almost innocent looking face. Now though? There's something almost intimidating about him. Terrifying, even. Although Felix is not particularly intelligent, he hazards a guess that his gut instinct is almost trying to warn him that Kohm Fidres has become a very powerful force indeed. It's a bizarre feeling. It's not as though the runic mage has done anything to **Prove** That testimony. It's just that... Who knows, really. Maybe it's how much healthier Kohm looks, or how much more confident he appears. Maybe it's just the fact that Felix has went from being able to understand his teachings to simply hearing utter gibberish when he teaches the young Oriate of the runic arts.

Maybe Kohm has just been this much of a force of nature the whole time. You know that feeling? That feeling in your stomach, you get when you look upon the mightiest people, the strongest, or simply the best at their craft? Felix feels that now. Maybe it's just old wisdom kicking in.*

*Anyway. Friend here. Felix should shut up and start talking.*
Tom
"Bloody hell, you've come at the right time. For me, anyway. She's been lyin' here, feelin' sorry for herself after she broke Phil' thingamajig, and I've been stuck here for days now."

"Right, 'nuff about me, where the fuck have you been, mate?"
Tammy
*Felix smiles at the last phrase and leans on the doorframe. Considering that Kohm knows the cat very well, he should probably know by know that harsh language and friendliness are one and the same to him.*
Hannah
Kohm's frown intensified, unaware of Felix's inner thoughts.
"I'm doing fine, but mind repeating the first bit? Moxie did what now?"

Oh, gods. Didn't he specifically warn her regarding being too risky with her experimentation? At least she was fine, but poor Phil...
Regardless, hopefully it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Moxie at least knew enough to not sever a summoning contract by accident.
Still, he had to check up on the situation, immediately. "Well, I'll tell you a few interesting stories later. Mind leading me to her?"
