Entry 13: Unexpected Destruction [Voice]

Jul 02, 2011 22:20

[Not long after his 'discussion' with the Queen, Wesker is sent back over to the real side, his mirror returning to the appropriate side. Except his room is not how it should be. The walls, ceiling, and furniture are all blackened. The floor is covered in a fine layer of ash ( Read more... )

[Brennan is standing in his doorway, observing his rage and the devastation of his room with quiet apprehension. She's standing with her arms folded across her stomach and her chin down, looking quite upset (guilty?) about something.

She's waiting to catch his eye.

When he finally notices her, she can barely squeak out a quiet greeting.]

Welcome back.

[No words will come to him as his eyes meet hers. He's enraged on so many levels, and as a result his thoughts continue to crash into one another. The mirror. The fire. The Queen.]

[Still very quiet.]

I'm sorry about your room.

[He breathes in deeply, trying to calm himself before attempting to speak.

After a few moments, he is able to do so.]

You have nothing to apologize for.

[Taking off the sunglasses with one hand, he rubs his face with the other.]

I am just baffled as to why someone would do such a thing.

I don't know either.

[Her eyebrows knit together.]

Are you okay? Was the mirrorside... agreeable?

[He nods, eyes slowly going back to normal.]

Yes, I am fine. I was able to speak with the Queen, and as I had originally thought, she was hardly cooperative.

[And then it once again occurs to him that his mirror had been living his life. We bid you hello, grimace.]

And what of this side while I was gone?

[With that grimace, she begins to all but cower in the doorway. She breaks eye contact, looking down at the floor.]

It was fine, I guess... No one knew... I didn't know he wasn't you, at first.

[Her eyes begin to glitter ever so slightly.]

[It takes him a moment to realize what precisely she was referring to. His eyes narrow instinctively in hearing about that pathetic waste of space mirror.

But then he remembers what Bren told him while he was on the other side. And if he was to be convincing, he needed to take her advice in matters concerning relationships and the like.

Taking another deep breath, he walks over to her and pulls her from the doorway, closing the door with his other hand.]

You have no reason to feel as you do regarding the switch. Like all events, it was a result of Wonderland and the mansion.

[She takes a quivering breath and looks back up to his eyes, her eyes beginning to well.]

I know it was Wonderland doing it, but... I still feel like I cheated on you. I know we hadn't discussed if we were exclusive.... and usually I don't worry about it... but I... I still... Feel awful about it.

[The tears break and begin to slide down her cheeks.]

You don't deserve such infidelity. I'm sorry.

And as I said, you have no reason to feel as such. [His eyes now show concern, thumb of one hand wiping away her tears.]

And as far as what I deserve? I believe that is my decision to make.

[Remembering what she had said about gifts during the chess game, he walks over to the closet and retrieves two items.

Walking back over to her, he holds out a cut red rose in...what is that? A flask?]

[She's fighting back a sob as he walks away from her, unsure what he intends to do. But when he returns with a red rose in a flask, her heart begins to flutter.]

That's... so sweet.

[She takes the flask and examines it through her foggy eyes.]

It's a red rose because those symbolize passionate feelings, and it's in a flask instead of a vase because of that first night we spent together, when I was smashing your glassware. Right?

[A smile at her approval.]

It seems I am not completely unaware regarding aspects of our relationship.

[And all he can do is chuckle at her observation of the rose in the flask. And, of course, a nod follows.]

You are always so analytical. But yes, you are correct in your observations.

[He simply watches her, soft smile on his face.]

[He confirms her observations as she stares at the rose. Her rose.]

This is so thoughtful. Thank you.

[Finally, she can't contain herself. A sob bursts from her lips, and she buries her face in his chest.]

You're wel--[And here he was, thinking the rose would lighten the atmosphere. Apparently he was wrong.

And so he wraps his arms around her, resting his chin on her head.]

I'm somewhat confused by your reaction...

[A muffled sob from his chest.] I am too. I was feeling so guilty and afraid you would be mad at me and then this rose is so sweet and I love it...

[Yeah, she's not so good with emotional stuff.

She lifts her head and rests her chin on his chest with a sigh.]

I'm glad you're back. I... missed your eyes.

[Wellll neither is he. So he will stand there, listen, and allow her to sob against him.

And then she mentions his eyes.]

And I would have to say that I am glad to be back on this side, as well.

[He chuckles as he removes one arm from her and slowly lifts her chin so their eyes meet.] My eyes?
