Mm, that is not an answer! I hope someone didn't spoil your night. [ huff. ]
[ he eases against claude, letting him support him up a bit. ]
Yes, I agree. [ ... ] It's so sorely needed. Tomorrow we will head into the worst parts of this place, but tonight... tonight, we dressed nicely and loved each other. That is important.
Ah, what a question. [ he tilts his head back. ] Brimstone asked me if I regretted befriending everybody only to watch them be slaughtered week after week.

no subject
Mm. Constant misery is so very difficult to manage. [ tail swish. ] Have you made happy memories here, Claude?
no subject
[ fond! warm! feelings. but also a bit of loneliness. ]
And you? Are you enjoying the full force of all this companionship?

Ah, what a question. [ he tilts his head back. ] Brimstone asked me if I regretted befriending everybody only to watch them be slaughtered week after week.

He pauses a moment. ]
I'm not sure how much I want to be on the same level as Brimstone.
no subject
There's an alarming amount of people like Brimstone here. [ dryly. ] Perhaps you should try not being on his level.
