I don't know!

[ she collapses back with a fwump, covering her face with her hands and her voice shaky. ]

I can't think about it. Please don't make me think about it.

[this entire conversation has been the weirdest rollercoaster

—but he doesn't like seeing his Nice Thing in Life upset. he lays back down next to her.]

I can't think about it either.

[softly, with hesitation]

It's terrifying.

[ there's a long beat of silence before she manages to speak again, her voice a little choked. ]

Y-yeah. It is.

1/2

[takes a verrrrry deep breath]

Would you prefer silence or a change in topic?

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[vitainmorte]

[ another beat before sure manages to answer. ]

I-I don't want you to think... I was lying, or-- or anything, I just...

...

I like you a lot and I want you to be happy, and do good things. I know you can.

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[mourningson]

[there's some color to his cheeks; he speaks without thinking]

You are the only one who does.

[...

no, that's not true, most of BARiTONES does, his own damn sister does, and there's a smattering of others for sure

but he doesn't want to mention this or even think that more than 0 people think there's anything good about him more than he has to]

It's a travesty. Believing in me or liking me at all.

[ she shakes her head a little, face still hidden under her hands. ]

It's not true. None of it's true.

You're good. You are.

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[mourningson]

I'd kill my own sister and bury our kingdom in rubble.

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[vitainmorte]

No.

No, you won't. I won't let you.

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[mourningson]

You can't if you die for that lord, Cypress.

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[vitainmorte]

I...

...

I don't... know... what I'm doing. I don't have enough information. I don't remember.

It just feels right.

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[mourningson]

It's ridiculous.

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[vitainmorte]

[ she's quiet-- doesn't answer, just putting her arm over her eyes to keep her face mostly covered. ]

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[mourningson]

[after a moment he turns to her and pulls her close]

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[vitainmorte]

[ tenses, as if she wasn't expecting it-- baffled that he's willing to touch her at all, after all that-- before gradually curling in against him. ]

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[mourningson]

[he's too fond of her it's too late for him

sighs lightly, relieved, as he pulls her closer yet]

Re: after day 332 (that halation twins memory)

[vitainmorte]

[ ... just presses her face against his chest, quiet. this is fine. ]
