[Canach doesn't necessarily hate Trahearne. He just dislikes dealing with the Firstborn for many reasons that are arguably rather petty. Even though they are two of the only three Sylvari on this island, Canach has had very little reason to associate much with him. It was true back home, no different now.

However, what probably irritated him most was the reason why he was actually contacting him at all.]

Trahearne, we need to talk about your little ruse.

[Syrlya's in the kitchen, arranging all of his photos on the counter. At least it's finally getting some use.

He's carefully separating them into piles based on subject and quality. And to the side, a small pile of his friends.]

[Sooo the day or so after Syrlya moves onto Emil's floor, he realizes: they all kind of left Trahearne to deal with this by himself. Syrlya obviously won't be checking up on him at this stage and Lalli is... Emil doesn't even know if Lalli considers Trahearne a friend, really, so the task is up to him!! He will do it.

Specifically, he will stop by after he leaves work, in the very late afternoon. He doesn't actually know Trahearne has moved into his own workplace, but he thinks he might catch him before leaving. So.]

Hellooo? Who is still here?

[Syrlya wanders around the bookstore with something wrapped in his arms, assuming that a tall green man is not going to be hard to find in this tiny building.]

Trahearne? Are you here?

[ Since the earthquakes, Red hadn't spent much time within Verens. The city had been badly damaged, receiving those from outside it civilians from the numerous hamlets, but not all needed to evacuate from their homes, and those of the mountains were far more stubborn to leave unless they had to - but at least, fortunately, they weren't about receiving an extra hand (...with enough persuasion and bugging).

...and actually maybe Red just wanted to check on the wildlife up there too.

But even he had need for supplies eventually, and there was no better place to go than to return to the city. Sure, buying supplies didn't lead you into the residential district, but checking on faces and even dropping off a few letters from other villages to dear friends did, and they were no favours that troubled him.

And it was what led Red to spotting the sylvari, a hard sight to miss or misidentify for any other. And since the last time they had met was in their shared work on finding the animals attracted by the love still in the air, there was definitely a relief and joy that surged in him, leading to his steps quickening, as well as the reason for his bright and chipper voice. ]

Trahearne, hey! [ trahearne hey hey hey ] You're okay!

[ notice meeee. and also the small yellow company following at Red's side too!! ]

[Syrlya seeks Trahearne out in person, even if he knows the crystal would be faster. He had such a big hand in shaking the ghosts's control once they finally caught him, and... he knew where to find him alone for an apology.

So he approaches Paulson's, where they're still clearing the wreckage.] Trahearne?

[ it's been a week since the block party, a week since trahearne finally told her the intricate details behind his death. with it all in the open now, it just doesn't feel right to keep her own past a secret from him. he needs to know, even if she hates the idea of it.

and yet she's still dragging her feet even now. there's a myriad of reasons she hasn't said anything yet: she doesn't want him to think of her differently, she doesn't want him to know all the things she has done (and hasn't done) in the five centuries she's been alive and decide that this thing they have isn't worth it. and she especially doesn't want him to be upset. her goal for months has been to make him happy, to keep that smile on his face, and if this shit keeps happening, it won't stay for very long.

but she has to tell him. he told her his secrets.

she knocks on the open bedroom door, leaning against the doorframe slightly. ]

Trahearne? Can I speak with you a moment?

So I see you're still here.

[Hi, bro.]
