[unknowable]

I'm gonna add one. 'Don't be an asshole, use them on the Null, not each other.'

[greywaren]

text;

[unknowable]

Here? Yeah, I'd hope that too, but I'm not counting on it.

[survivorsguilt]

[If he was trying to goad her into revealing her age, it's worked like a charm.]

[greywaren]

[unitas]

Need help?

text

[greywaren]

sure.

parrish is with me but i dont think either of us can really fight them off if they came for us.

[unitas]

I'll get there soon, then. Stay hidden. And when you see a giant monster, don't flip; he's on our side. [ HER side, really. No one else matters but she controls him, despite the fact that he's her protector, her angel, father figure. ]

[greywaren]

[...a giant what, now.]

you too?

action.

[torrefied]

[OK, then - Mello doesn't bother messaging, just shows up at the orchard, tense, looking for Ronan.]

If you still have any, I need a gun.

[He's not a kid, and it's not a question, so.]

action.

[greywaren]

Yeah, yeah.

[He recognizes him, but- now isn't really the time to bring up old shit like that. Ronan sighs, moving to stand.]

Do you know how to use one?

action.

[torrefied]

[He nods. Does he ever know how to use one. The question would almost be funny, considering what he says next.]

I have one of my own already - this one's for Sharon.

action.

[greywaren]

Right. You guys are sweethearts.

[He says it a little snidely and the corner of his mouth curls upward.]

Does she know how to use one?

action.

[torrefied]

If she doesn't, she will.

[He'd already been tense, but everything about him sharpens immediately over that comment, sweethearts. It's childish-sounding and demeaning, in Mello's opinion.]

She's not my sweetheart. She's the only person here I care about making it out of this alive.
