WHAT IT SAYS ON THE BOX.

[Well he would remind Diarmuid that he wouldn't be here if it weren't for a certain someone, but he's not a fan of being stabbed.]

Well by "okay" I meant....relative to you. Or something.

[a beat]

Whatever.

[beautymark]

[A shake of his head, and he presses himself even more desperately against Cu. He just doesn't want to let go. Ever.]

[erank]

[HESITANT PAT ON THE BACK? God damn can't you just flip out in the other direction and help him escape???]

[beautymark]

...Is everyone treating you properly? I told them to. If not--

[he'll kill people. but maybe he should say that so openly.]

[erank]

Well it's jail, but no one's tried to shiv me or stick it up my ass.

[beautymark]

They'd do that?

[erank]

...which part?

[wait does it really matter tho?]

The answer to both is yes.

[beautymark]

...I'll gut them if they try.

[erank]

I can take care of myself, okay?

[beautymark]

No. I let them put you here, so I'll protect you.

1/2

[erank]

Or you could get me out.

[erank]

[except that was probably not a good thing to say and he realizes this about a second after he's said it]

[beautymark]

[To his credit, he doesn't stab Cu then and there! He just looks up at him with a looks somewhere between irritated and betrayed.]

You can't leave me.

[erank]

...right. Not leaving.

[FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUU]

[beautymark]

...You want to, though.

[erank]

It isn't you, prison's just boring as fuck.

[beautymark]

I could send something to entertain you...

[erank]

No offense, but it's a little different.

[beautymark]

But if you left I'd be alone again!

[He's trying to make sense. He's trying to be fair, but he can't help but be terrified at the thought of having to face his world without Cu in it, and it shows.]

[erank]

We've been over this before, yeah? You could come with me.

[beautymark]

No I couldn't! They'd find me. And I don't know what to do without her. She puts the lines between what's real or not...

[erank]

She sounds like she spends all day being a raging bitch, that's what she does.

[beautymark]

Don't insult her! She's never hurt me...

[Physically, anyway. She's done quite a number on him psychologically, but comparing it to his Master it seems like nothing to him.]

[erank]

She can be a bitch without hurting you, you know.

[beautymark]

Don't say that!

[She is, after all, the one thing "stable" in his life. She really does tell him what is and isn't real, and he's terrified at the thought of losing that.

He doesn't really think about what he's doing. It's just unconscious reflex to jam one of his knives into Cu's thigh.]
