From the white lights, the darkness comes...

[sageking]

Today's trial was a mixture of regret, anger, guilt, and second-thoughts. Perhaps some people realized that situations and choices weren't to be black or white. However, decisions were made, and whether it'd be through people keeping secrets or causing a ton of chaos...everyone could probably agree on one thing:

They've made their choices and no matter what happened in the coming days, they will lie in the beds they made for themselves. Whatever that should mean for each and every single person still living here.

That being said, there's still new choices to make. In the days to come, what will those be?

[he's just a little overwhelmed and doesn't know how to words things because feelings are hard but he does lift up his hands to cup her face when he breaks the kiss and rests his forehead against hers a bit]

Tomorrow, then.

...I only feel like saying it once a day.

[She grips his wrists loosely.]

So... Wei-kun's just going to have to wait for the day after... i-if he wants to hear it too, I think.

[cw_suicide]

You can always ask him if he needs it.

[accessorytomurder]

...I really wish we could sleep in other rooms.

[She sighs.]

I... worry mostly about you both at night.

[cw_suicide]

[admittedly... he is now at the most risk out of the three.]

Marona-chan keeps an eye out for me in my room.

[... wait. this isn't just a worry about them physically thing.]

The nights are hard, but it does make seeing you the next day even better.

[accessorytomurder]

...promise me you'll actually sleep tonight.

[The other people aren't her top concern when it comes to endangering his wellbeing, no.]

I-I can't fuss over you and tuck you in like I did Battler, so... please?

[cw_suicide]

... I'll try.

[he is. very tired. it's true.]

[accessorytomurder]

That's all I can ask.

[She squeezes his wrists again.]

And, the more rested you are, the sharper your mind will be when you're eying up traps, too.

[Just saying.]

[cw_suicide]

... and to think I was scolding Ango for that earlier...

[huffs a bit before tiredly nuzzling his face into her hair.]

I'll be better about it. It's getting more dangerous.
