[Day 4] Hell

[arsgoetia]

Some of you are discussing serious lawyering with the most serious lawyer. Others are reuniting with old friends, or meeting new ones(?) . . . and some of you are just flat-out riding bad decision dinosaur trains.

The adventure continues. ♥

"Tease . . ." the sword complains.

You're the one who isn't offering up anything . . .

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"I believe," says the sword, pointedly, "that is a mutual problem, actually."

[makes a frustrated noise at the back of his throat and looks back to Yuki]

Re: [High Security]

[telepathetically]

Keep your face at LEAST a foot away from the bars and if he sticks both hands out I'm hauling you right back, GOT IT?

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

All right.

[steps closer and lowers his voice, the sword doesn't need to know that Yuki's a telepath, right?]

Aside from your escape, what demands do you have?

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"Getting out of this is a little high on the list, all things considered."

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Surely you have other wants?

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"I am a creature of want," the sword agrees, leaning a little closer. "But in the scheme of things right now . . ."

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Yes?

[purposefully not moving closer]

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"I want very much not to be here."

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

I hardly know the charges against you in particular. How do you expect me to free you?

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"You tell me what you can do for me, and then maybe we'll see how I can help you this time. Previously, it's always been me offering when you're helpless - isn't that fair?"

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Considering how you failed to uphold our previous agreements, I would think that you owe me something.

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"When did I fail to uphold anything you had asked of me?"

Re: [High Security]

[telepathetically]

Are you two going to quit nitpicking over who did what like a pair of exes, or should we leave?

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

[ignoooore]

When we confronted Sidney, and when you failed to uphold your agreement in Bastien's soul. Isn't that much clear?!

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"I told you, I kept my agreement in Bastien's soul. Forgive me, darling, for the first; you already had."

Re: [High Security]

[telepathetically]

Nitpicking it is! Because we have NOTHING ELSE important to do!

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Forgiveness does not mean that a debt is not still owed. Regardless of that, what do you even expect me to do for you in this place?

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

Poor Yuki.

"Why exactly do you expect me to tell you anything if you expect to do nothing for me?"

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Just—answer the question and I will speak to the Great Duke regarding your charges!

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

"What assurance do I have?"

Re: [High Security]

[tsundeargodwhy.livejournal.com]

Have I ever broken a pact with you?

Re: [High Security]

[arsgoetia]

You've hardly had a chance, the Sword seems to think.

"I am," he admits, "at my wit's end. All I can do is trust in you. I know my faith in you would not be misplaced, darling..."
