I can't, but the important thing is that I have her back. She's safe!

[gamboler]

[ ...You know. It's a little odd, perhaps, but he's not going to begrudge anyone for holding onto something with some sentimental value alone. ]

...Right. If she's your familiar, it must have felt quite unsettling to be separated from her.

[bowtiedbones]

It was awful. I don't care about the rest of the stuff they took! I can get new clothes. I can order a new driver's license. I can't get a new— Tuxie.

[gamboler]

Tuxie? That's...her name?

[ Her being the. Bone pile. ]

[bowtiedbones]

It's her name for now. I shouldn't use her real one.

[gamboler]

You think that rule applies even to the bones of familiars?

[bowtiedbones]

[she shakes her head]

It's not a risk worth taking. Her soul is attached to mine.

[gamboler]

[ Hm. ]

Right. Not worth the risk, then. Though you know...I don't believe you ever did tell me what your "name" is.

[bowtiedbones]

That's because I never picked one. I told the British guy that came by to use "Eowyn," but that was just being polite.

[gamboler]

[ tf is british ]

Giving it a lot of thought, hm? Then again, it's not as though most people get to choose their name to begin with. This is your chance to give yourself any name you could want.

[bowtiedbones]

Is that how you picked yours?

[you mean she can't just go by "hey you," "the blonde one," and "lady dude?"]

[gamboler]

[ A light chuckle. ]

Not exactly. Really, I just picked the first yellow gemstone I thought of.

[ Well, aside from Topaz and Amber. ]

[bowtiedbones]

Oh! Because we're wearing yellow? That's cute!

[gamboler]

Cute, hm? Haha, I suppose it is.

[bowtiedbones]

It makes the yellow feel like an aesthetic choice!

[gamboler]

If you likewise chose an aesthetically aligned name, what do you think it would be?

[bowtiedbones]

I don't know any gemstones, maybe Goldie?

[gamboler]

[ A light chuckle. ]

A little old-fashioned, but not bad.

[bowtiedbones]

What about Penny? Though that's copper... Ah! Topaz are yellow, right?

[gamboler]

That it is. A gemstone said to represent love, wealth and good fortune.

[ He won't mention he also knows a Topaz, but someone else using her name shouldn't be an issue. ]

[bowtiedbones]

I like wealth and fortune!

[gamboler]

Then that might just be a fitting name for you, if you like it.

[bowtiedbones]

I like it. I’ll keep using Eowyn with some people, just to mix it up, but I like Topaz. It sounds cool and it’s fun that it matches!

[gamboler]

[ It seems a little complex to him, but hey, if that's what she wants. ]

If you say so, Miss Eowyn Topaz. It just so happens I'm familiar with a Topaz already, so that's easy enough for me to remember.

[bowtiedbones]

[complexity is security!]

Is that so? Then I’ll try to do the name proud.
