[she startles a little when she hears footsteps running up to her, but when she realizes who it is, she relaxes a bit.]

I'm fine. [she says, bemused.] It's Throné.

[and - once the hushed tone starts, she folds her arms.]

I did. I assume you did as well. Why?

[WELL WELCOME TO MG I GUESS!!!

she's still in the observation room, just kind of. sitting here, but she does look up at rosamund if she's nearby. the emotion here is just absolutely despondency, like - she's sad normally, but this is so much worse. it's not the first time this has happened - it's not the first time she's seen someone die right in front of her and it won't be the last. it's not the first time she's made friends with someone to lose them immediately. it's not even the first time it's been two people at once.

it's kind of going through her head, as she sits here, but. she doesn't say anything, she just makes room for rosamund to come sit and cry if she wants to.]

[brings you a preorder

throné is chilling in the bar today, reading. the emotional vibe today is just... somber, and thoughtful. less sad - though that's always present, it never goes away - and more like she's calculating something. thinking, thinking.

when she sees rosamund, she actually will call out to her.]


Rosamund. [come talk, girl, this weekend was a nightmare]

[she's - not doing great, but she's moving.

no smile today, no nothing - just slightly red-rimmed eyes and a hardened, icy expression. but - it eases, just a little, when she sees rosamund. she's not angry at her.]


... It appears that way. [silence, and then:] Rosamund - if someone kills another person, what do you think the punishment should be?

[she glances over at rosamund with a raised eyebrow.]

... You didn't make me do anything. [she says, shifting. i can't remember if i ever linked her cool new leg so here it is.] It isn't your fault I'm hungover.

[she was probably talking about your stab wounds throné but ok]

You aren't... experienced with this sort of thing.

w3, MONDAY

[hey what's up THE VOIDRIFT SAYS HELLO, we're just starting off at top speeds.

you are seven years old. maybe six. you can't remember exactly.

you are standing in the sewers under new delsta. a man is standing in front of you - you don't know his name, or even what he's done wrong. father didn't tell you, and you didn't ask. he said you had a job to do, and you didn't argue. you're not supposed to. and he said - he said he'd get you your favorite after this, so you go along with it.

the man in front of you whimpers, and stumbles back, falling to his knees. he's terrified of - well, probably not you. he's probably scared of father. a lot of people are. you are too, sometimes, when he looks at you like he does. one time, you watched a pack of wild dogs tear into a rat on the street, and watched the way they salivated and growled, the way they ripped it apart with a sort of gleeful air. the way father looks at you sometimes reminds you of that.

"Go on, give it a try," his gentle, encouraging voice comes from behind you. you frown, looking at the man in a crumpled heap on the ground.

"I can't do it," you say, quietly, shaking your head.

"You're still young and naive, Throné," he sighs, exasperated. "You're wasting your sympathy. He's the worst sort of scum there is."

he tells you this like he's coaxing you to eat your vegetables. you think this is very different, though. you don't want to. you hesitate.

"Come now, Throné. Once you kill him, you'll understand," he continues, putting his hand on his hip. his eyes never leave the man on the ground, and his voice gets a little lower. wistful, almost. "You'll see how intoxicating the smell of blood can be. Soon enough you'll want to spread it on your bread like butter."

you... frown even harder. no. that doesn't sound good at all. you're not sure.

"I'd rather have raspberries..." you mumble, rubbing at your eye.

he laughs. like it's a silly thing you said, that you want to have fruit to eat instead of blood. of course, of course, you amusing child.

"Everyone is born with a gift," father says. "The gods bestow us all with a job only we can do. It is our fate. Your gift was wielding a dagger, Throné. If you want to live, you must learn to kill."

you know, as his tone gets a little harsher, that he's reaching the end of his patience. you're not supposed to say no this much. so, you bite your lip, and shake your head to clear it. the dagger in your hand feels familiar, but... you've never used it this way before. not on a person. you know how to slice and dodge and you know where all the best spots on a person are to kill them, but you've never actually done it. until now.

you take a few steps forward. and without a word, you shove it through the man's throat. he tries to get away from you, and in the seconds that pass you realize he's afraid of you. this doesn't make you feel anything. maybe a little sad. but father said. and you have to. so - you do, and he slides off your blade and gurgles, eyes glazing over. you step back a few times so that the blood doesn't get on your shoes, and you feel a little like crying. you don't, though.

"Very good. Just as I expected," father says breathlessly, moving forward to marvel over your work. "How was it, my dear?"

you stare down at the body, and you mumble:

"The smell of blood... I hate it."


and the memory ends. :man_standing:]
