Something like that.

[ with a little huff. teasingly: ] Going to tell me that's crazy, now?

[bxkautx]

It kind of is, but if that's the way your world works.

[halians]

Pfff. I'll take it.

[ that's character growth (?) ]

... You know, that was a not so subtle hint.

[bxkautx]

Hm?

[halians]

Your emotions feel like you're three seconds from a magla implosion.

[bxkautx]

Nothing that won't blow over.

We're near the end and I'm just tired, that's all.

[halians]

[ >:( ]

This is precisely what you told me in your letter when I asked last time. Does it ever actually blow over? Or does something else just take its place?

[bxkautx]

Things keep getting... stirred up. But when this is over I can just relax and finally clear my head. Same as anyone else that's worn out after all this.

[halians]

Clear your head the way you did before...?

[ frowning... ]

[bxkautx]

[ it's ok. i stay my hand when someone makes a typo... unless it's funnier not to... ]

... No. Think I'm good for a while. [ although the consequences of killing in hell are really not so dire that she thinks it matters. ]

[halians]

[ mrmf. well, listen, he's not going to linger on it too much because it makes his justice senses unhappy even though she lives in LITERAL HELL but.

he makes a noise of agreement. falls quiet, for a moment, staring up at the clouds.

.... ]

You ought to tell me about it, anyway. What's the worst that happens?

[bxkautx]

Talking about it is the worst that happens.

I'm fine. Feel like I've complained enough about my stuff. I'm just tired, and this is almost over, and that's all, so...

[halians]

Didn't go so bad the last time we talked about things.

[bxkautx]

Ohhh, but I did hate it though.

So what do you think about all of this? Our last week here and that... race? Apparently?

[halians]

...It meant a lot to me that you trusted me enough to share with me, for the record.

[ SIGHS. ]

It's a week, same as any other, at this rate.

[bxkautx]

Mm. Thanks for listening.

[ but, anyway, ]

It'll be more chaotic with everyone here.

[halians]

Pain in the arse.

[ he reaches out and plops his hand on her head.


ruffles her hair in her face

better ] Everyone with some additions, even!

[bxkautx]

[ does not like this but has resigned herself to it happening... ]

Right, the extras. What's that even about?

[halians]

[ its ok its a one and done ]

Apparently they were caught up on a bus, whatever that is, and ended up here, or so I was told. Wriothesley was with us at the resort.

[bxkautx]

So they were in games, too...

But then got grabbed and didn't even have to do trials? No fair.
