[ she kind of just looks exhausted, more than anything. ]

... Okay. [ she says, quietly. her voice is raw, now: ] I'm sad. But I have to keep going. Phoenix wouldn't want me to give up. And there's so many people that don't have him now, and I want to help.

[ she gives brilith a wry little smile. ]

My shit's not important. It never has been. And the one person who did help is dead, so.

[ AH SHE. HEARD THAT, HUH. ]

... Look. Let me let you in on a secret. [ she says, folding her arms. ] The second week we were here? After Nikki. I called Peach up and told her to pass on a message to Master Blue. I told him he could have me in exchange for everybody else here. All of you get to go home, and I'd stay here and do whatever the fuck he wanted. Whether that was torture or death, I'd let him.

You know why? Because I'm a piece of shit. I never thought I'd live past nineteen. And my whole life has been me doing whatever I could to fuck other people up. It didn't matter. As long as I screwed someone over, it was fine. It was what I did.

But now I'm here. And the best thing any of the Nein taught me how to do was to leave shit better than I found it. So yeah. I'm less important. That's how it should be.

Yeah, well. There's a fucking reason I got so mad at you before.

[ she knows she's a hypocrite. for the sacrifice thing, anyway. wanting to die is a different story. ]

Or - not even you. I wasn't mad at you. Just your circumstance and what it made you. Like my circumstance, and what it made me. I told you I don't hate you, just your life, because you didn't have a choice. Thing is, this is me trying to be better. This is me trying to make up for the shit I've done.

[ she keeps that little smile. ]

I already told you the only person that helped is dead, Brilith, I don't know what you want from me. I'm just gonna go until I can't. And I've been doing that since I could walk, so. It'll take a while for me to get as old as you.

Or maybe it won't.

[ beau - yeah, she told brilith to call her that, but she's surprised it actually happens. she doesn't say anything. she - misses this old brilith, and maybe she wants to encourage it as much as she can. ]

Ideally, they'll help each other. It's kind of like Phoenix, right? All the people that are missing him coming together and making bonds, making promises.

If I burn out, nobody is gonna know.

[ a pause, as she looks away. ]

I'm glad they care, but they won't notice. [ her smile is a little sad. ] Which is okay. Really. That's kind of how I want it to be? I can put my shit on the backburner if it means people like Hunter get to be okay. He deserves a bit of happiness.

I got all the happiness I was ever supposed to get in Exandria, I think. Hit the max. So this is all bonus. [ and she's waiting for it to burst. ]

Yeah, I am. I know, I'm a hypocrite.

[ she sighs, pushing the beanie back just a little. her mask is glowing a sickly green color, visible even under her hair. ]

I hate it because I don't want other people to have to go through it, Brilith. It sucks. I probably shouldn't have yelled at you for it. I just wanted you to be happy, and talking through shit calmly isn't really my thing.

[ she rubs at the back of her neck a little. ]

I mean, yeah. I am an idiot, but - I didn't think you cared a whole lot about me one way or another to begin with, Bril.

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-03-22 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I - yeah?

[ she looks confused, why anger!! ]

It's not that I think little of you. I just thought... I don't know, I'm not really worth your time? Am I wrong?

[ beau frowns, and very - hesitantly steps forward. ]

Someone you know, I guess. [ beau supplies, soft. ]

[ her frown only deepens. she takes another step, and then another, and, boldly, rests a hand on brilith's arm. she's sure she's going to get batted away, but. ]

I guess I'm sorry and glad about that.

[ beau keeps her hand there. ]

I don't know what happened to them. But. [ she thinks about it for a second. ] I can try a little harder for you if you want me to.
