the strongest revival

[Cirno wakes up the next morning alive, of course. And the first thing she does is run for the bathroom and vomit. She can still feel the poison creeping through her body, feel her organs slowly shutting down...she knew at the time she'd simply be brought back, but that did nothing to numb the pain, nothing to comfort her ( Read more... )

. . . Another talk with Mr. Teatime it is. How I do enjoy those.

Bother.

. . . You're still listening?

No, I don't doubt he didn't. But no little girl ought to even know such words unless an attempt to make up with her best friend fell through. You're allowed two or three choice curses if that's the case -- I suggest using them on something more imaginative than 'damn'.

. . . Oh.

In that case, I take that back and frown severely on your public broadcast of filthy language. What happened, if I may ask?

Um...nothin'. I'm just, uh...I'm sick, or somethin'. I guess.

You must be if that's the best lie you can think of.

...You gotta promise not to tell anybody.

Anybody ever.

[Now it's normally unadvised to promise that of a child as doing so invariably means that the child in question has actually seen or done something extraordinarily serious that requires immediate attention from an authority figure. Abuse, for instance. Or perhaps witnessing a murder.

Susan, however, considers that there's no authority above Death. Or Susan.]

Alright. I promise.

I got killed.

[Her voice is nearly as grim as Death when she responds after a few moments of silence. Capital D.]

How?

F-Flowers. She made flowers grow in my mouth, a-and then I...

[Her next question would've been 'who'. Who would murder a small girl. But Susan has a good memory and sound logic, and it is much less important right now to ride out like an avenging fury than to comfort the girl who has just been murdered.]

. . . No, I don't need to hear any more. That's fine.

Getting killed warrants at least five curses, if you'd like to use any more. A good cry can often be helpful, too.

No, I can't cry. I'm s'posed to be the strongest.

Don't be absurd. The strongest is the strongest, not the 'most stoic' or the 'most emotionally repressed'. And I'll let you in on a secret. If you ever meet anyone who says they've never cried, they're lying.

I've cried before!

...I can't this time, though. 'Cuz it means she'll win that, too. I'm not gonna cry if it makes her happy!
