[prologue] post-investigation, w/ evan

[She's been checking up on a few people, so when she doesn't see Evan out and about after the investigation, she opts for checking in each of the suites. Thankfully (maybe), she doesn't have to barge into too many people's rooms before she finds in the water suite.

After a pause:]


So... That just happened, huh?

[tfw you want to escape murder but murder follows you everywhere.]

[When she comes in, she'll find him scribbling something down on a napkin he found in the kitchen with his quill. After failing to find any better sources of paper in the castle, he's settled for the next best thing. When she walks in, he flinches slightly, but it's more from surprise than anything else.]

...Yeah.

[He trails off, uncertain what else to say about it immediately; it's awful, but... He's certain she already knows that.]

A-Are you going to be okay?

[He absolutely notices that she only specified how she's feeling physically, but he doesn't comment on it immediately. There's absolutely a new note of concern on his face, though.]

I'm, um... I'm going to be okay. [Eventually. Maybe.] D-Did you, um - know her?

[personal profile] selfinserting 2018-06-12 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah, I know. You, um, you too.

[A small shrug.]

I, um, I get it. S-She seemed really cool.

[He hesitates.]

What if... what if whoever it was, um, didn't have a choice?

I-I mean, um... The, um, the Dragon said that the reason we're here is because people have to g-get killed or something awful would happen to all of our homes, right...?

I mean... W-What if it's true? It sounds really out there, but everything about this place is. Maybe they were just... t-trying to do what they thought was best.

[personal profile] selfinserting 2018-06-13 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
I-I know. I didn't mean to say it was r-right, but what if it's, um, less wrong than the alternative...?

[He shakes his head.]

S-Sorry. Never mind, you're probably right.

[personal profile] selfinserting 2018-06-13 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
No, I-I know. I didn't mean that we... I mean, I-I'm not going to do anything like that, and I didn't mean you should, either.

[He takes a breath, shaking his head.]

I said you're right. Y-You are. Sorry.

No, it... it's kind of - admirable? T-That you're that passionate, I mean.

[...]

I mean, most people are pretty against killing other people, but... Y-You know what I mean.
selfinserting: (so i've got nothing to share)

[personal profile] selfinserting 2018-06-18 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
I-It probably makes sense that it doesn't, given, um, what they want us to do. But... It's a-awful.

[An exhale, and a quick shake of his head.]
