jealousy, you are your own ultimate self-destructive indulgence

[Parsee would never admit it, but the bitter taste in her mouth was the fault of the spiders.

The vicious, venomous spiders inside the turkey. Scuttling, hideous. Yet she didn't- couldn't trample them. It was almost ridiculously laughable if one thought about it; even with her sharp tongue and hateful diatribe, she was somehow just a bit too soft

[Klaus is... well okay, he really shouldn't be doing this, but he's doing his best to discreetly practice with the shoulder-mounted gun that Dist made for him. In the park. And okay there is no way to make this discreet at all.]

[My, what is he doing? Parsee's wondering this from her hiding place behind a tree but, well, it's not like it matters. All that does is the envy burning within Parsee's chest as she watches.....and the same feeling inside Klaus's own heart right now, sparked into furious life in the blink of an eye.

How will you grapple with this sudden jealousy, Klaus? What does it make you think of?]

Wow tl;dr up in this comment

[Dist.

Blam! Down goes a tree.

Dist can just prance around Mayfield with his perfect intact Spark (so it isn't a Spark. It's close enough. Far too close for Klaus's liking), making people guns.

Blam! The treetrunk is splintered into teeny little pieces.

Dist can make people guns, working machinery, and Klaus couldn't even fix a slightly-damaged clank that he himself invented. Now how is that fair? Dist is a whiny, self-serving, pompous little aristo. Klaus could squish him into jelly with one hand!

Blam! The teeny little pieces become teenier.

And Klaus isn't going to put up with this. He's going to go find Dist and show him what this blasted gun is good for. He managed to make some improvements.

Dist probably won't like them.]

[It's a little bit hard to miss the sound of someone practicing with a grenade launcher. He tracks down the sound easily, and grins a bit when he sees where it's coming from.]

Isn't it gorgeous?

[Aww yiss. Gorgeous indeed.]
