Hello, this is Cypress. If you leave me a message I will get back to you as quickly as possible.

Thank you, have a good day.

[vitainmorte]

[ straightens a little. ]

I'm sorry the chance was stolen from you.

I am not sorry for preventing a death.

[mourningson]

...

You're fortunate that Cosmo isn't upset with you.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

He has every right to be upset with me. I will not be childish about it. I cannot expect everyone to understand.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

And yet, he is not.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

... so what is it that you want me to say? My reasons are clear.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

Very little else, except a promise that you will point a weapon at me next time instead.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

Should you be the one to attempt to kill someone, perhaps I will.

I will do it for no other reason. How dare you ask that of me.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

[his smile falls]

That would be the only reason.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

...

I have no desire to hurt you, or anyone else. But-- especially not you.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

[pauses to dwell on that]

I could not defend you or your decision in front of my own unit. You understand that, right?

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

I would never expect you to put me before your unit.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

Of course not, and I would never dare to.

[runs his hand through his bangs, now that he's done pretending to be a smug ass about everything (for now)]

That situation wasn't pleasant in the least, Cypress.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

No. I'm sorry to have put you in a difficult situation. I cannot promise it won't happen again.

[ a long pause-- then takes a shuddering breath and closes her eyes, hands folded in her lap. ]

I... understand if this complicates things far too much for you, for the future, and I would not fault you for wanting to end things because of it.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

I'm not interested in ending anything.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

[ opens her eyes again, still looking down at her lap with brows furrowed. ]

... no?

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

If I wanted to end our relationship, I would have done it right then and there.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

...

I'm... glad.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

You needn't jump conclusions, Cypress.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

[ her expression falls, a little, and she bows her head again. ]

... mm. I'm sorry.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

Would you like some breakfast?

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

[ quiet for a long moment, before mumbling ]

... honestly, I was so nervous I don't think I can stomach anything right now.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

This conversation went quite smoothly. I'd say there is no further issue, unless this incident should repeat itself.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[vitainmorte]

[ ... but what if it does.

she hunches her shoulders, slightly. ]

Just some water would be fine, I think.

Re: day 353, morning after the game

[mourningson]

[with a nod, he fetches her a glass of water and sets it down by her]

Do you know why I have chosen to go without my extra layers?
