[ Crackling in, Savannah doesn't mean to say it, but he can only groan in defeat. ]

Foul trick... no, foul play. Both the Montagues and Capulets will face their deaths; civil blood is not needed to make civil hands unclean.

shh, I'm not on hiatus or anything. adeios April 22 2010, 04:53:25 UTC

[ .~. Cas' voice is very quiet and very soft. ]

Hannah... Hannah, tell me it is you, and that all the other voices in my head have been but phantoms. It's too ridiculous to be true.

I should never have left Avatica--

w2g /slow clap bioweaponed April 22 2010, 04:55:15 UTC

Shh! Be... quiet, Cas. We... must be silent. Do you hear me?

.~. But I missed you. adeios April 22 2010, 05:00:37 UTC

[ Cas' voice is shaking now, and it's obvious what a fragile state he's in. His sanity is a thread pulled taut, his bloodlust boiling over. ]

I'm going to kill them. Every last one. I'll find Selene and Aaron. I'll-- I'll burn all the nations to the ground--

/pats. i missed you too. now back to the kitchen. B|! bioweaponed April 22 2010, 05:02:43 UTC

[ And that's where Savannah's voice gets strong and firm, like in the past. ]

You will sit. Do you hear me?! Stay where you are for me, do not do anything rash.

...are you going to the kitchen, or are you ordering me to the kitchen? adeios April 22 2010, 05:05:52 UTC

But they took them, Hannah! [ Cas' voice cracks a little at Savannah's name, sounding just a little lost much as back then. ]

How can you ask me to do nothing? And the King-- I am a Commander--

... well, either way, someone's gonna have to make dinner so bioweaponed April 22 2010, 05:08:21 UTC

Because their struggles will be in vain if you, too, are caught in web. Haste makes waste, Cas. Where are you?

.../makes dinner for you =w= adeios April 22 2010, 05:20:26 UTC

I won't be caught. I would never allow myself to be caught. [ He spits out the word as though it has a particularly foul taste to it. He is the kind of man who would lose his remaining arm before allowing himself to be ensnared. But for all that talk, he still gives in to what Savannah is asking. ]

...I'm in the city. I took refuge in an abandoned house. Where are you?

/omnomnom |3 bioweaponed April 22 2010, 05:30:40 UTC

You can take care of your actions, but can you take care of others? You are not a puppetmaster.

... out in the open, but coming for you.

/pets |3 adeios April 22 2010, 05:34:44 UTC

--why? I can take care of myself, Hannah. You should look for cover. [ He sounds a little more lucid at that, because the idea of Savannah out in the open genuinely worries him. ]

I'll be fine. You know me. I'm always fine.

bioweaponed April 22 2010, 05:35:48 UTC

It is not a question of safety now, Cas. It is simply a want. Certainly you would know of those.

adeios April 22 2010, 05:40:44 UTC

Not a question of--

[ Cassian draws in a breath, and sharply. He nearly chokes on it and has to take a moment to compose himself. ]

...Hannah, surely you're not-- Not that I'm adverse--

[ He stops, swallows, then starts again. ]

Is now really the time?

//filter bioweaponed April 22 2010, 05:45:17 UTC

Since the day you gained the ability to swing your arms to and fro while you smirked, I have mulled what happened in my head. If now is not the time, surely we'll have another instance where it is the time.

//filter since Savvy cares about things like privacy. see the depth of our love? adeios April 22 2010, 05:48:59 UTC

Then why not wait for that time? I-- ...For you, I would wait a thousand years, and I would fight as viciously as you saw me fight the day we met to reach that day.

[ And it seems, just like that, every other part of today is set out of his mind for the moment. War and betrayal and fear are as nothing to the sound of Savannah's voice. ]

//filter fff bioweaponed April 22 2010, 05:56:16 UTC

[ That... certainly catches him by surprise. He's speechless for a minute a fine quality in a wife something very few people had made him become. ]

You... you would?

//filter adeios April 22 2010, 06:00:56 UTC

I would do it gladly.

[ Cassian sounds a little stunned himself, not having realized these words until they'd already left him. He always was a little oblivious to his own feelings, half in denial and half afraid.

...but it seems useless to be afraid any longer. The King is dead and the wolves are upon the, The time for fear is long past. ]

//filter bioweaponed April 22 2010, 06:02:14 UTC

... and what if the hourglass runs low of sand and we are still fighting, Cas?
