Comments

w0 sat

[bookpapers]

[sticks em in the refectory... lavi will slide in across wherever Karlach is sitting, hi]

How's the shoulder?

[ablazement]

Like I said, doesn't even hurt.

[she says, cheerfully.]

How's your boy? [your child leash, if you will]

w0, MONDAY

[ablazement]

[karlach's out here, wandering again. she can't see the word on her just yet, but it's there. it's on her back, blotchy and inky, in big white letters: ENVER GORTASH.

right this second she's looking at the plaque outside the mortuary, tail swaying back and forth.]

[bookpapers]

[Lavi heads on over when he spots her]

Hey, Karlach -- [and immediately reads the word because of COURSE he does, despite being very not into this ink trend they're all having because he's both nosy and hypocrite,

but first he looks at the plaque and then back,]

You're rooming with your pals, right? And others.

w0 friday the 2nd

[bookpapers]

[lavi is hanging around pyre, clearly restless, his gaze shifting from the posters to the starless sky and then back. He turns when he spots Karlach,]

What the fuck just happened?

[HE REALLY HAD A PEACEFUL CURFEW AND WOKE UP TO WILD SHIT]

[ablazement]

I've got no fucking idea, we just - got locked in, we thought it was a prank.

[she says as she comes up, little licks of flame in her hair. her chest is glowing real bright, and she looks pissed, tail lashing back and forth.]

Are you alright? Where'd you end up?

w0, SATURDAY 2

[ablazement]

[she's out by the swamp just staring into the distance, mostly still. it's weird. she's usually full of movement, but not tonight.]

[bookpapers]

Karlach.

[Lavi will call out to her first as he approaches, half concerned, half intending not to surprise her, until he reaches her side.]

...What are you looking at?

w1 mon

[bookpapers]

[the sheep..... the sheep are so peaceful and soft and cute...... just a sea of fluffy whiteness.... and a... patch of orange?



it moves closer and closer to where Karlach is standing, woah wonder what this could be... it's like a floating head of orange hair maybe? WHO COULD THIS BE....!!!! a sheep baas, and amidst it -- the sound of snickering.... as Lavi(?) gets closer and closer,]

[ablazement]

[sir

she watches this floating head of orange hair just slowly... make its way forward, and has to bite her bottom lip to not laugh. she's petting a sheep with her not-fucked hand, and she is absolutely just going to let lavi do whatever the hell he wants here.

if he tries to leap out at her she will flick him with her tail like she's snapping him with a towel though, half-grinning.]

w1, FRIDAY

[ablazement]

[HEY EVERYTHING SUCKS FOREVER

anyway, you can find karlach on the beach. she's slamming something into a tree over and over and over again. it looks like a piece of furniture or something. it doesn't matter what it is she's just beating the shit out of a tree.]

[bookpapers]

[EVERYTHING SUCKS FOREVER

Lavi goes to find her because of course he does, and instead of drawing short in surprise -- he keeps going, moving until he's up close, and -- well.

he can't say he doesn't relate at all, his own fists are balled up and shoved deep in his pockets. so instead he keeps standing, waiting -- and letting each strike against the tree uncoil some of his frenetic energy.]

w2 mon

[bookpapers]

[GETS SEIZED BY SHADOWS IG, and as they do, a memory unfolds.

"I am not your comrade."]

[ablazement]

[there's a pause, as she like... digests this, and then:]

-- What? [so much to unpack there...] Were those your friends? What was going on?

w2, THURSDAY

[ablazement]

[boy if you are not resting she's going to beat your ass but like lovingly

where you at what's your status.]

[bookpapers]

[STOP LISTEN

he's at the dining room table!!!

or he's like under it? one of the chairs is on the side on the floor and he's stretched out next to it, one hand on his bandaged chest and gasping in pain, which may be familiar to karlach....!!!]

w3, MONDAY

[ablazement]

[good morning lavi...

there's a dog. he's hanging around the new woods area, sniffing around, digging holes! when he sees lavi, his tail wags wildly, and he trots up with his tongue hanging out. pets? pets for dog?]

[bookpapers]

[NOOOOO DOG..... HERE TO FILL THE PICKLES-SHAPED HOLE IN HIS HEART....

Lavi looks around and then down at the dog like ? and after a beat of hesitance... he reaches out to pet him....!!!]

You're not someone I know, are ya...

[is this rondo dog version part two again]

w3, FRIDAY

[ablazement]

[sitting, rewrapping her knuckles...

looks up at lavi and gives him a little nod. hey, buddy.]

... Found Tomizawa.

[bookpapers]

[Lavi nods back, then drops next to her.

...]

Where was he?

w4 mon

[bookpapers]

[THE WAY ALL MY PCS ARE DATED TO NIGHT TIME...

Lavi is sitting on a bench in the amusement park, watching all the rides operate seemingly by themselves, wow. He has a stick of cotton candy in his hand, which he immediately puts in front of his face as if this will hide him.

This is so embarrassing...]

[ablazement]

[HELP poor lavi... at least he was cute.

she laughs at him trying to hide, immediately coming over to flop down next to him.]

Could be worse! You could've made a bunch of people go on dates again. [nudges him.] You were a cute kid.

w4 fri

[bookpapers]

[I ALMOST WRITE SAT IM LOSING MY MIND

Lavi is at the pyre! His back is to the bulletin board, and he's staring deeply in the fire, expression devoid of emotion -- but when he spots Karlach he'll turn around and approach her, looking glittery.]

Hey. Did you investigate this morning?

[ablazement]

[YOU JUST FASTFORWARD US!!! GRIEF

she pauses, and then nods. it is very, very obvious that she's been crying.]

No, I didn't.

[a beat. a little frown.]

w6, WEDNESDAY

[ablazement]

[after everything has calmed down, she's still here! she's sitting somewhere in the vineyard, staring up at the sky. slightly transparent, and if you touch her she's cold and your hand goes through, but. better than nothing, right?]

[bookpapers]

[he will tell himself that it is once time starts ticking down, as if to remind himself that at least he got this chance --

but for now, he'll drop down into the spot next to Karlach,]

Talked to all your boys yet?
