Yeah... I had half a mind of actually sitting in on trial today just in case things got out of hand, but the girls would've called if they really needed me.
I got the impression. [ they do feel for marcoh, but maybe not in the way she thinks. ] But it's over. Just have to get through tomorrow, and at least we'll never have to deal with that part again.
Judgment Day's next weekend. The Entity's been caught, so it can't do this shit again. We just have to ride out what it's already set in motion, which was... why today had to happen. But we're good on the possession front from here on out.
Just not more murder. [ nodding along as they take a pull of their drink. ] I mean it's kind of better to always hope for the best and expect the worst, right? At this point.
Oh. Thanks? I obviously like your company, too, or there'd be so many people I would've kicked out of the bar already. And you've been here pretty much a couple of times a week every week for... a while.
[ okay, that thought gets a snort of their own, even if the little action is both sweet and a tiny bit embarrassing. to their credit, they don't pull back though. ]
Short end or not, it's what I chose. I didn't know you were all the people I'd be meeting, but can't say I regret it. I still think you guys have changed. It means this whole thing wasn't a total failure.

Nope. Clear of all ledges, emotional and otherwise. [ pauses in their mixing to grab a new glass to make something for her. ] Have a seat.
no subject
[slumping right into a seat. pass her a drink, she could use it.]
no subject
... definitely a shitshow of a day though. Can't say I blame anybody for feeling a way about this.
no subject
[taking an immediate sip.]
Uruha's note for me was all, oh, hey, keep an eye on 'em for me-- come back and do it yourself, I can't fucking control Marcoh.
no subject
Can Marcoh even control Marcoh right now? That seems to be the big problem. It's... devastating, I get it, but it was rough to watch today.

[lmao. nah, she knows.
she takes another sip and then holds out her hand with her less injured arm, making a gesture for them to give her theirs. c'mon. paw.]
no subject
[ but yeah, yeah. hands over paw. everyone thank yves for conditioning them into this. ]
no subject
[with a little snort at the thought. jeez. old men making pillow forts...
she takes that hand, though, and just presses a lil kiss to the back of it. see? even i can be respectful and shit.]
Glad you decided to fight god to get stuck with our asses, Gabe. Even if I still think you got the short end of that deal!

[ just mostly, maybe. ]
