Week 2 Post-Trial

[strictura]

[ The trial itself may have been pretty straightforward, but with how high emotional tensions were running afterward, there's probably no one feeling like organizing any kind of gathering right now.

So, go do your thing until a new week starts, and write down those memories you don't want to forget. ]

It's okay.

[She kind of... squeezes her shoulder a little?

This is making her feel something unfamiliar that she doesn't like. Her heart hurts.]

I don't think we're in a hurry right now.

[littlebratziska]

[She pushes herself up and turn away from the tv enough to throw her arms around Dark Dream's neck and lay her head against her shoulder.]

I'm sorry. I should be better. I will be. I promise I'll stop this, I... I won't stop unless they kill me too.

None of this is how any of this should be, nothing works and nothing's right. It's not a game, why is anyone talking about playing by the rules?

[imozon]

[AAAAAAAH?

After a moment she kind of... awkwardly wraps arms around her.]

I thought you did really well...

[littlebratziska]

I'm being pathetic.

[There's a bite of venom for just a moment in the words, but she lingers in Dark Dream's embrace for just a moment longer after she says them before she pulls back and drags her wrist quickly over her eyes.]

None of that should have had to happen. I'm going to make sure none of it has to again. I just... I'm not sure how, yet.

[Her eyes go back to the television, still very close to Dark Dream, but not actively leaning on her any more.]

Have you ever seen this before? I hadn't, but it's nice.

[imozon]

I've never heard of it before. It looks fun, though.

[That's what happens when your entire existence happened in 2007.

She leans lightly on Franziska and watches quietly for a while.]

I think you can do it.

[littlebratziska]

[She leans back, and does curl a little closer again as the watch the rest of the movie.

Franziska only looks away when Moana is given a choice to go back. What would that have been like?

Not that it matters, really. Some people are destined for some things, and often in that destiny you're not given a choice.]
