[Lavi is staring at Boothill... well, he's some distance away -- not close enough to add Nat to this filter tch, but his gaze is still on him. his expression is neutral, neither seeming angry or sad or maybe much of anything at all?
[ her own expression looks mostly neutral but, her ears are folded back and her tail keeps lashing a bit anxiously. staring where boothill is like a wary stray. ]
Yeah. [ ... ] I want to know what his monster is.
[ AS IF SHE'LL PROBABLY GET AN ANSWER AND LIKE THAT IS TOTALLY A GOOD IDEA HELP BUT, quieter ]
...What do you think happens if your supposed partner dies before you find them?
If it's just missing out on an upgrade, it probably isn't bad no. But what if we need to find our partners? What then?
[ IT'S FINE SURELY. NOTHING IN LIFE MATTERS /POSITIVE. she goes silent at that question, and though she doesn't answer right away her hands do clench a little. ]
...They looked like snakes for a moment. [ the metal slithering ] So I thought, you know, maybe... It probably isn't, and it isn't as if I'm worried about it.
[ her gaze stays fixated in that direction though. ]

Whatever it is, it can't be the same thing that happens if you do find them.
[SO IZUTSUMI'S LIFE SHOULD BE SAFE... MAYBE, but he darts another look at boothill as if following her train of thought, mouth taut]
...You think he's a gorgon?

I could ask him instead if you want.
no subject
He probably won't share.

[he gives her a brief smile]
In the meantime, maybe you can ask the Masks. Don't know if secrecy's important anymore with Hill like this.
no subject
If you want then. [ looks away from the pyre, more towards the fog. ] Hmm. I'll try asking them later. After this whole thing blows over.

...No matter what, it'll end one way or another, huh?
no subject
If it's anything like what's happened these past few days, it'll be either with our deaths or someone else's.
