Who: Nadine and various prisoners
What: Visiting the dungeons
Where: The dungeons
When: Post-festival



Nadine is no stranger to the dungeons by now. Besides her frequent visits to Flagg, there are other prisoners down here she's befriended. Who are still imprisoned.

Apparently some are more threatening a threat than others.

And of course there are still plenty of others she hasn't met at all. It's important to know the other people brought here, to take their measure and determine who might be useful. It doesn't look like Thorne is about to let her husband out any time soon, and that's a problem that will need to be dealt with. She knows (casually, at least) a number of those considered welcomed guests, but many of the poor souls stuck down here are still a mystery.

So after she's checked in with Flagg, she turns her attention to the other prisoners, offering a smile or casual greeting through the bars. She's armed with cookies and a friendly demeanor, standing out in the gloom of the dungeon with her white hair and silk tunic.

It's the first time he's seen her since before the wurm cave, and the look Eddie gives her is very, very far from the cheery grin he'd had for her last time, and with good reason. He's stone-faced as he watches her approach, his jaw working hard as he grits his teeth, and he curls his hands tight around the bars, knuckles going white.

He hadn't been sure whether or not he was going to say something to her if she came back to see him after the frostwurm. And sure, he could just give her the cold shoulder, but... she'd seemed so fucking nice every other time they talked that it doesn't compute, what the hell she'd be doing with him.

"Hey." Doesn't matter if she's down here for some other reason; this is important, and if Eddie has to wedge his way into catching her attention then he'll do it. "Nadine. I need to talk to you."

That's...a surprising thing to hear. Nadine turns towards Eddie's cell, head tilted curiously. It's not as though they're in any urgent situation, but his expression and the way he'd called out to her...maybe he needs to get a message to someone else up in the castle?

Whatever it is, she approaches with a smile, though it's a touch confused. He really doesn't look so great.

"Of course. Are you okay, did something happen?"

She knows where the prisoners have been, after all.

"You remember the first time you came down here," Eddie says, forcing himself to speak slowly, "and I was talking about my wife, and you were talking about your husband, and you said his name's Randall and he's locked up down here too and I'll meet him eventually 'cause he's not really that shy?"

Oh.

Nadine sighs. She's relatively certain she knows where this is going. Flagg is...not everyone's cup of tea, to put it politely. As good as he is to those who adore him, those who don't...

It's reasonable to assume the two had met and clashed.

"What did he do?"

Not that she can smooth things over or get Flagg to change, but she can at least apologize for whatever offense was caused.
