06 | Video

[ It's obvious this is being filmed in one of the many temples, all cool hard stone behind her, and, given the subject matter of the video, most likely to be Hope's. Sharon does not look pleased. Furious might be the better descriptor but it's a calm sort of fury. There are a few spatters of dark blood on her cheeks, dried and cracking; old. She has no wounds just stains and memories. She leans in towards the lens and whispers: ]

So, which one of you fuckers killed me? [ Her killer could reply, he might not, but she won't stop until she finds him and returns the favor. ]

Yeah, I know what he looks like. He won't get away and I won't be forgetting.

Good. That'll make this motherfucker easier to kill.

...I don't think I'm going to kill him. I don't want anyone to. [ It's B. If she kills him or gets him killed, is that going to ruin her relationship with Mello? She'll have to find a less obvious way to break him down. ]

Then what are you planning to find him for?

[More for her own curiosity's sake than anything else. Since she's going to try to withhold her judgment for now.]

There are worse things to go through than death. [ She's got Fear's blessing still and, if she loses it before she finds B, she'll turn to Fear again. Like she's done more than once now. He'll owe her anyway. She's going to be putting herself in danger to play the Null and he's the only one that knows about it. ]

[Simply:] Good.

That sure as hell is something we can agree on.

He'll regret what he's done and I don't care how long it will take.

Need any help, just ask.

[Hey, not like her involvement with the Guard is widely known, so who cares what she does and doesn't get herself wrapped up in.]

...Thanks, Rey. [ She knows the other woman could take on someone like Beyond with ease, not just in terms of mass but power. ] That really... you know.

[ means a lot right now. She may act tough but that's all it is: an act. She's just a teenager too far down the rabbit hole. ]

[She gets where Sharon is coming from right now. Not because of personal experience because, frankly, Rey has never actually been a teenager herself, but false memories have offered her some insight if nothing else. Guess that's one of the few things she has to thank her tormentor for.]

No worries. Just don't think you can't ever ask for help with that. The asshole who killed you should have a taste of his own shit.

I... I know. [ Uh-huh. Ok. ] I, uh, I also know things get complicated when other people try to deal out my vengeance.

It has less to do with vengeance and more to do with... assurance. People come back when they die, sure, but we can't keep relying on that.

[Hope's made it clear to her that he doesn't have a choice in who he resurrects, but she doesn't trust in putting too much faith in the gods.]
