[ The room behind her is ensconced in darkness, and only her face and neck are visible, lit only by the cold light of her phone. She's clearly apprehensive, and uncertain, filled with new doubts, and worries.   This is not a post she had ever thought she would have to make, but now, with Hope announcing the safety of the temples (safety that comes with a price, she believes), she has no real choice.  She swallows, suddenly all nerves. ]

I know it's tempting, but... [  Is there any way to say this where people will listen? ] don't use the temples, don't hide in them.  If you have to hide, then pick a building, find a room, and hunker down.  When the Darkness comes, you might have to move, but... [ She licks her lips, expression pained for a moment before she shakes her head, as if giving up on something.  ]

This is for the best.

[ ...Maybe. ]

Anything I can. If I can even just kill Fear, this will have been worth it. [ no, she's really trying to do something here. kill fear. rage. delight. hope. do something to show these gods they're capable of fighting back, of doing more than asking for things, and taking, and hiding. ]

[Good lord. And some people have accused Mello of being delusional. (Maybe not to his face, but. It's surely happened.) He actually takes a moment to laugh in the face of the absurdity of it all, a deranged, almost-shrill sound.]

Are you honestly that stupid? You're not going to kill Fear. You're feeding him.

Fuck you, at least I'm doing something! [ but they have no control over the city so hopefully no control over the fears that are created. if anything, any of their fear belongs to her. ]

Funny how your something looks an awful lot like throwing a fucking temper tantrum. Saying you don't want to hurt people and then doing it anyway doesn't absolve you of responsibility for this, especially if you're spreading misinformation on top of everything else.
