Mm. [ A wry smile... and gesturing toward his crutch: ] Sorry that happened to you.

[ She's quiet for a moment, then just sighs. ]

This whole thing really sucks, huh?

[ There's a vague shrug. It sucks, but... He came back. ]

It does. None of it's easy on anyone here. [ He pauses, hesitant, but. ] I... really didn't think you'd be voted.
burnstrike: (it's not all that it's made out to be)

[personal profile] burnstrike 2021-10-31 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... me neither, honestly. I'm trying not to take it personally, since I know it made the most sense with the evidence that was there. And it's not like I haven't voted for someone without being sure of it either.

I wasn't sure of my vote, either... But I had trust in what you said.

[ A heavy sigh. ]

You're really strong, taking this the way you are.
burnstrike: (a little further from perfection)

Well, if I've got less than a day to go here, I don't want to spend it just being angry and miserable. [ ... ] I'd be a pretty big hypocrite if that was the case.

Why would that make you a hypocrite?
burnstrike: (the camera would pan away)

...When Lou got sick, our options were to devote our lives to the goddess to get a cure for him, or to go back home and let him live out his last few days -- free to be there with the people he loved as a real person, but also to suffer through that illness and die. I thought that being free to make your own happiness by pushing through the pain was the most important thing anyone could have, and I wasn't willing to give that up for either of us.

So if I let myself get caged in by these bad feelings now and don't try to live to the fullest on my last day too, then... it'd feel like I put him through something I wasn't willing to do myself.

[ He listens to all of that and nods, taking it in. ]

I get where you're coming from. You... really do have a strong heart living like that to the end.

[ He furrows his brow, though. ]

Are you planning to not fight tomorrow?
burnstrike: (then they'll screw you just the same)

[personal profile] burnstrike 2021-10-31 10:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ She frowns. ]

Probably not.

[ Which she really hates saying, since fighting to the end is her entire thing. If she'd actually killed anyone then she would, because she doesn't believe in half-assing things and it would be an insult to the victim to back down after that. But when there's no good reason this is happening in the first place... ]

I mean... It's not like any other innocent person deserves to die for this either. Trying to kill them would be like saying my life's worth more than theirs is.

And if I fight with no intention of coming out of it myself, then I'm just hurting someone for no reason and making you guys waste even more of your medical supplies.

[ It hurts to hear, but that resonates in his soul. He would never want an innocent dying for him. ]

I'll be there to support you in your choice. Whatever happens tomorrow. At least you can know that you kept to your conviction through it all.
