"Every other month, I don't know if it's because the spell takes a lot of power, or they have it on a rotation. It's nice of you to offer to go. Anyone I should keep an eye out for you? Friends or family? Sometimes people are snagged from the same world. There was five from mine, once upon a time." It's only gone down to three, technically, but the loss of Inej and Wylan were heavy ones for the Crows. It has been a few months but it still stings. It's one of the things people get used to, they have to.
Jesper grins at him and winks. "Wait until you see how fun the Horizon can be, love. It's not headaches, mostly a good time." Jesper likes teaching people about the wonders of a space where anything you imagine can exist. He only has the Horizon these days for his liaisons so it's been getting quite a work out. There is nothing holding him back from openly flirting with handsome men. His world may have issues, but that's not one of them.
"Yeah, the Singularity's an entity itself. Doesn't seem like it can communicate with humans well, so we're usually in the dark about what it wants or can do. Not much we can do about that." Jesper shrugs and sips his drinks, no sense in putting it to waste if he's going to be explaining things. Julie knows more about the Singularity than anyone else and she's at a loss to handle what's going on outside, so the rest of them are useless.
"Oh yeah, definitely some terrible power. To be fair, it did kill the person who stole it, so it didn't want to be in his hands. Ripped him to shreds." Jesper was sober enough to watch that, although not so sober that he put in a vote for it. "The vampires wanted to put it back in hiding, there was no telling what would happen if it was destroyed. The Summoned were asked their opinion, group vote was to leave it alone. I was too drunk at the time to cast a vote." In fact Jesper didn't bother to think on it, he was too busy stumbling back to bed.
