[ Proud of them for progress, really, but he comes over when she starts to sit up. He doesn't sit on the bed itself, but the - frame? that the waterbed is set in, Snow used to have one growing up it's a precarious perch of being unable to get the fuck out if you don't sit on it right. ]
I'm making rounds, I suppose. [ A pat, for her fox, just because. ] I need to change my bandages again - but I'm surprised to see you, too.
[ beat ] This is the part where I awkwardly ask if you want to talk about whatever has you making that face, because neither of us is adept at that sort of thing, or if you want to pretend everything is fine.
[ she'll deeply appreciate how he isn't rocking the bed by sitting on it and just the frame. even though it might not be that comfy, but if it's for a short time. her fox makes a soft pleased noise from the pat.
[ At least she laughs. He's 800-something years old and has spent all of that time hating almost everyone, it's very hard to adjust to liking some people. Slowly, he brings up his ankle to cross on his other knee, propping his chin in his hand and his elbow on his thigh as he looks at her. ]
En, or I think most people would give you the disservice of saying you're "brooding" when there's so much going on in your life even without murders every weekend.
[ izumo's pretty okay when it comes to approaching certain things, but she's not exactly graceful most of the time. if want someone who is great at pissing others off, though! boy!!
nevertheless, she'll pause for a moment. ]
I don't think I "brood" in the first place. It's kind of a waste of energy. [ and a waste of time. she has never thought of time being so precious as she has now. ]
No, I was angry because of how she was caught and what it meant.
[ A hum escapes him in his own moment, and it's a little bit approving as it is agreeing - it is a waste of time. Especially in a place like this, where it's important at every turn. ]
How so?
[ What does it mean, to you? in its way, because he's genuinely curious. ]
hmm. she thinks about how she wants to phrase this but there's no real way to go about it in any other different way than it is already. hc was there....he'd understand. ]
The people that she knows—Alphinaud—he's close to her. Seeing her caught and knowing that she'll be executed is not something that I wanted to witness him enduring.
