The Redcap Switches Hands

JP with Alexis, Gonyaul, Tarmen, and Voah:

Feeling like a fourth wheel with all of the open emotion, Tarmen placed his hand on Voah’s arm to get her attention.
“A favor.. if you don’t mind.”

Voah was slightly stunned and shot a look at Alexis, not realizing that she was going back into Fang to look for the others. But of course she was…

She was about to interrupt but a hand touched her arm and she looked down to see Tarmen.

“Name it.”

He had made up his mind while the others spoke, taking a chance to hopefully not screw anything else up.
Grabbing the imps head, he presented it to the Arbiter.
“Once told me… to be rid of it. Wanted to burn it. Probably safer if you do it.”

She looked at the ugly little thing and almost instinctively sneered, but was able to hold back. Then she nodded at Tarmen and took it into her hand, examining it. A strange custom… but interesting that it could be done.

“Do you think that this… thing… is the source of your madness? Our curse?”

He shrugged, utterly in the dark on this. First head he ever had that spoke to him after death.
“Even if it isn’t… sick of it on my hip… and in my head.”

Gonyaul moved a few steps closer to see what Voah was holding more clearly. It curiously looked like a tiny head. His eyes opened in shock when he realized it was a real tiny head, and not a false one.

“Eros aw usedayi.” He mumbled in disgust. That was unmistakably gross.
