He will head over and sit next to him, and think about why in the world this happened TWICE to these two what the fck, while also checking Lucas over.]
And you guys are okay?
[DID ANYTHING FALL ON TOP OF THEM WHILE THEY SLEEPING DAMN]
[lavi Closes His Eye at the mention that Mathis once again FOUND WEIRD SHIT,]
I was at the pyre with Yuu and Karma. [ORI REALLY FCKING DID THIS TO US] Everything was fine -- well, they were being their usual selves, but no one started punching each other, so.
[he shrugs. he'd take that as a win except karma fcking DIED]
He went to sleep first. Yuu and I tried to take shifts.
What a mood, though. He found Karma to be a handful, but he isn't the first and won't be the last Troubled Kid that his path crosses with. He was fond of Karma, aside from that.]
It's possible... Did we ever find out why Boothill murdered Aventurine?
This is such a hilarious bro move. i aki am thinking that, Lucas is just a little surprised since he's usually the one initiating contact first when people are upset. He isn't discomforted by it, though.]
About as well as one can be, given everything... [THREE DEAD.] And of yourself?
Lavi looks at him thoughtfully, not that he thinks Lucas is a lying liar who lies, just that he knows he’d prefer to be the one doing the comforting than be comforted,]
I’m worried about Laudna and Kate. And Yuffie and Tomi. I don’t know if Tomi will want to come back to the house.
[but maybe this is why they need people like Lucas, those who can comfort others, because Lavi knows he’s not equipped to deal with grieving,]
…We had a lot of fun together, with Pickles and Ichi. I’ll miss that.
The way they're both just dodging talking about themselves or their feelings in any great detail. He really threw the ball to Lavi and then Lavi threw it at four other people.]
Were Laudna and Kate close to any of them? [He just assumes almost everyone is close with Pickles who wouldn't love Pickles. Tomi, he understands without needing to ask. He goes quiet as Lavi continues to talk, though, glancing toward the altar.]
...I'm sorry that it all came to an end in such a way. I understand that we'll be dealing with more loss moving forward, but... I can't understand this choice.
[Ichiban seemed universally liked, and the other two were a DOG AND A CHILD.]

Yes, though Mathis happened to find a few things again... [Not a body at least but still.] --Where were you? Was everything alright there?
no subject

no subject
So by the time the two of you had fallen asleep, nothing seemed to be amiss...
[And then Karma got fckin booped to death while they snoozed. It's a nightmare out here.]
no subject
I haven't been around him enough to notice if he was acting strangely or not... [KARMA IS JUST NORMALLY WEIRD] He did give us peppers though.
no subject
...Why...
[It does sound like a Karma thing to do, though. Karma just does shit.]
no subject
[A LITTLE DRYLY. THEY WERE GHOST PEPPERS. i have no idea if lavi still has them. dms ori in a rage]
But I think he just wanted to see us suffer.
no subject
He was a troublemaker through and through. ...I dislike that it was him who ended up targeted. No one deserved to die, but...
[He doesn't like the fact that Karma, evil teen that he was, was wholeass murdered.]
no subject
...Yeah.
[as much as Lavi thought Karma was annoying, he also liked him. bc he's honest and not a lying little shit like lavi]
Do you think someone influenced like Boothill got him? [would the cultists just randomly mcmurder karma.]
no subject

Lavi shook his head,]
Not that I know. But they were from the same place, right? I heard Daan mentioning something at the end of trial.
no subject
Yes... I believe they're from the same place that Robin and Caelus are from.
[So he has to wonder if that had anything to do with the target when there were three people for Boothill to crush.]
no subject
So you think the monster influence preys on feelings that are already there maybe? And not just makes people kill out of nowhere?
[he's thinking of........... eric...............]
no subject
He frowns though, looking thoughtful.]
That may be the case, but it's too early to say, I think. We only have Boothill to base our thoughts on...
no subject
Right... I was hoping we wouldn't have more to draw from. [BUT!!!! if it's gonna happen...
he squirms a little, restless, and then reaches out to clap Lucas lightly on the back,]
What about you? Are you doing okay?
no subject
