I took that 7th Level spell from Lup. She suggested I go ahead and consider it, before things got too exciting.
So if it did end up being a waste and we don't need it, I can simply teleport the thing into the empty space around this place. Or the middle of a volcano. [...] Oh! Frozen into the depths of hell.
Oh, I don't know, what feeling waters are left to tread? I continue to be a fool and end up cutting my heart with a knife of my own summoning, so I can't get too into that one. I knew she wasn't with them. I know the way to save her is dark Furby magic, apparently, but still-- I couldn't help myself. Everyone seems to have gotten something of what they wanted. A reunion or closure or a reckoning. I've just got an empty space, and a robot pretending it knows-- therapy?
For all my blabbing about moving on about the past and not caring, I'm the one refusing to let things go now.
[he really did choose feelings violence here!! thank you for a hand.]
Because I've tried my damned hardest to be-- a good person through all of this. Sometimes I've succeeded and sometimes I've failed miserably, but if that involves having to just move past it for it now, I'll do it. If we've got to be friendly with a cursed spirit and a few serial killers, and worse yet, Childe, then, fuck it. I'm not letting go of Beau. That's what matters in the long run.
[I'm going to tell you something very cursed and it's that at this point she doesn't really mind interacting with Childe as a person, even though she's not over his nasty crimes at all.]
I will choose not to acknowledge Mahito for now, as much as it offends me to see anyone treating that thing like it's funny it was caught misbehaving, while Aoi goes around calling it her friend and saying it's okay she was killed by it because she loves it and she's not a real person anyway.
[Gross. Gross. Gross. Gross. Mahito needs to fucking die.]
I will choose not to acknowledge Childe, or Grell, and I will allow that awful drill man to attempt overfamiliar conversation. But if anyone dares to suggest you ought to forgive that thing or let go of her, the truce is dead.
[i mean? same? so he can't judge that. he has good conversations with childe. just maybe don't like, close your eyes around him, or tell him anything about your plans for the day.]
And this all a bunch of ridiculous horseshit from me anyway, because I can't even bring myself to-- be angry at Endorsi. At least for very long. So I won't pretend I've got a clear picture here. And I don't give a shit about what Qingxuan did. What was she supposed to do?
[He pauses to rub his forehead, the cigarette between his fingers.]
Let's just get what we came for and go home, yeah?
Stop it. Don't call it horseshit. Don't call yourself a fool. Stop that.
[I mean. She's not thrilled with Endorsi. But it's not exactly the same as what Mahito did. Anyway, her tone is firm, but a little less harsh than usual. She's not commanding him, or judging him. Just. Don't.]
[She just meant stop being angry at yourself for having feelings, but okay.]
It's so funny, because we really misinterpreted that message as relating to a different person who is eating people? [If I had a nickel for every person who was eating people in 7 Rings. . . ]
I'm just frustrated that I decided to hate that guy and then felt convinced to give him a second chance, but actually no, I should have kept hating him.
I always suspected ... [no. it's fine. anyway, he's not worrying about it. seriously he's not that freaked about it. he hangs out with Nott. Goblins regularly eat people. She once accidentally had a taste of baby soup. sometimes things just happen.] This day started off so nicely too! A boy told me he loved me. Suppose something did have to ruin it. Can't have one just nice day.
I think this particular boy tends to think of himself as not being one for saying things like that, but then goes around saying it to rather a lot of people. It's cute, in a way.
[This is yet another way in which Harrow and Gu Yun are similar, yes.]
. . . I don't know. He did try to get me to agree we were going traveling with him, after. Which I told him was stupid. I suspect there's a little investment.
No, it's White, obviously. We've been involved since a few weeks back, don't you remember?
[STOP]
Anyway, it did remind me that ... Well. Beau said something about how the Nein had all improved at certain things, and one of those things was telling the people you loved that you loved them.
[bitch are you ready he's about to fucking take your head off with a baseball bat of affection right now strap in]

[haha well! he saw how she reacted to sqx. he was trying not to do it so much in front of her.]
Everyone else seems perfectly willing to move on. Maybe that's a good thing though. Can't really be juggling grudges and an out of control furby.
no subject
No, we can juggle grudges. That robot is bullshitting, and we're going to kill him.
no subject
[THE FUCKING ROBOT.]

Just as we're about to leave. Goodbye, HK-47.
[Hmm.]
Talk about feelings, or gossip about all the murders?

That's absolutely ridiculous, Mollymauk. Why do you believe you ought to let anything go?

Does Takeru eat people? Please tell me no. I can't have slept with two cannibals. I don't think I can take that, mentally.

[Anyway. Harrow doesn't care about anyone's love drama but she cares a little bit about Molly's. So. Hmm.]
Oh, ew. Did he say why?
no subject
Mm. No. Probably high on drugs.

[But she smiles a little. Ugh. Yuck. Gross.]

[Not to Harrow as much as, himself,]
