[francel knows only a little bit more of the current events than estinien does — he knows nothing of the specifics, he knows only what the general public was allowed to know — so the conclusion he draws is that perhaps estinien, for whatever reason, cannot remember anything from after he was possessed by nidhogg. that would sort of make sense, right? his body was not his own; perhaps, then, his memories were not his own, either.
except for the part where estinien wasn't possessed at the aery but rather in azys lla... but francel, as a layperson, would have no knowledge of that.
regardless, francel sees no point in trying to discuss current events to an amnesiac — better to just slow down and take things one step at a time. the things that happened in ishgard aren't terribly relevant to their current situation, anyway.]
I am sorry. If you'd like, I can speak no more of this.
[In a stroke of irony, Francel has said something that Estinien can absolutely appreciate. All of this is a lot to take in, and he's really not sure what to believe. Discussing events he supposedly took part in, but has no recollection of would prove more infuriating and confusing than helpful.
It also doesn't help that Estinien is maddening in his stubbornness, and nearly immovable if he believes one way or another. Luckily he is movable when enough evidence is presented.
This along side him processing the proposed truths of the Dragonsong War is a touch overwhelming.]
Aye. I fear this conversation will go even further into nowhere if we attempt to speak of events I cannot recall.
I understand. If you have further need of me, you may contact me at any time.
[there's a pause just long enough that estinien might think that he's finally free of the little lordling —
— but then francel sends a short video clip of his little bunny waving to the camera as a pair of hands in white beribboned gloves manipulate the action in the background, and unfortunately, the hands are far too big to be a child's.]
[HE DOESN'T EVEN SAY ANYTHING. He is NOT GOING TO DIGNIFY THAT WITH A RESPONSE. Partially cuz he's pissed, and partially because he's appalled that Lord Joacin isn't a child but a grown man.
Fury take this miserable place!! and him with it...]
