...I asked Chad, earlier, if he thought there was any way abilities of ours could actually help during expulsions. Whether mine could, specifically. Using it during a fight would just prolong it, and he thinks protecting someone as they fell would only delay the result, but if you can come up with-- any other way to use it. Anything else that might work.

[she says, dryly, staring at the ceiling.] Do what you want. Maybe you can hit me with your staff, too.

[but she's just taking a seat nearby, there.]
...I've apologized to Mollymauk already, but I am sorry I used him for that.
no subject
It's not my fucking apology to accept, I guess, so. [...] If he was fine with it, it's whatever. I just don't like him getting hurt.
no subject
[if someone outside their group just up and beaned one of the ipre into unconsciousness, she might be annoyed about them going for it like that.]
no subject
It didn't get him scapegoated, so I don't care.
no subject
If he hadn't spoken up first, I would have explained it for him.
[she wasn't going to just- let him take that kind of fall, if it happened to come up.]
no subject
Nice of you. [and she takes another big drink.]

... No, I don't think that's a good idea. If he lives he might have to kill again, and we'll be right back at the start.

[her fingers curl into the fabric of her robes, there.
absolutely fuck this place, if he had to do it twice.]
no subject
I don't know if he was talking about home, but I don't think so. [another swig.] He's got a boy at home. He's engaged.
no subject
And someone's going to have to find a way to tell that boy something happened, if-- time can proceed normally there without him going back.
no subject
I will. If it has to be done and it can be, I'll do it. [it's her responsibility, she thinks.]

Hey. If I go up there tomorrow, and I lose, I need you to take care of Caleb and Molly.
no subject
[she starts to say something, then just. pauses. exhales a slow breath, and nods.]
...I will. I promise.
no subject
... I'm not gonna fucking die. But just in case. [...] Thanks.
