[she doesn't seem to mind the hold, at least, chasing his hand a bit.]
You're not going to want to hear it, because I didn't. But it's probably better this way. She would've had to hurt someone last night, and you know she wouldn't have wanted to.
[there's like next to no emotion in how she says this because she can't muster up anything but exhaustion. mercy kills are hard for her.]
[she'd said the same thing to gale the other day. she just wanted one person to be safe. especially this one. especially camille, who had never been safe in her entire life.]
You won't have your power? Why? [she'll ask that first - she doesn't want to think too hard about tomi because every time she does she spirals a little about how she couldn't help him,]
Someone had killed her, and left her to be found like that, and said nothing about it. I assumed that they were avoiding taking any responsibility and facing what they had done.

[instead he got TELEPORTED. god.]
What happened?
no subject
[grumbles.]
Got angry that the fucking tree kept me away from Gale and Astarion, so I punched the barrier. [a lot]
no subject
[karlaaaach.
he keeps hold of her hand.]
Monsieur Gale was with me and a few others, in the city.

[holds his hand...]
We were at the tree. If you can believe it.
no subject
[HELLO THATS CONCERNING!!!]
Rondo mentioned that the god of the tree was angry... nothing happened to you, did it?
no subject
[accidental]
I don't know why we ended up there.
no subject
[karlach.]
I don't know why we ended up where we did, either, but I would've liked it to be a little different.
no subject
[nyeh]
... But yeah. Me too.
no subject
[just. by way of explanation there.]
... I'd believe that he did, though. [that gets him to crack a tiny smile.]
no subject
Oh.
[wrinkles her nose.]
... Well, I hope she stayed away from you.
no subject
[thinking about it.]
... I think that I must have fallen asleep on Kanda?

And he... let you do that...

[listen he didn't look a gift cuddle in the mouth that was a once in a lifetime deal]

Oh, he was very cursed.

Yeah, alright.

You okay after finding out who died?
no subject
[the bar is on the floor the bar is in the core of the fucking earth]
no subject
Mmhm. [she agrees, with a huff.] Fucking awful, isn't it. That it's just getting to be something we're all used to.
no subject
[his grip on her hand tightens, but then he remembers her injured knuckles, and lets go.]
And after Camille, too...
[...]
I really... wanted to think that she would be all right.
no subject

[a little shake of his head, and then instead of taking her hand, he just curls into her.
he doesn't sound surprised, though, despite what she said about him not wanting to hear it.]
...I won't have my power this weekend, so it's... not going to help with either of them. I'm sorry.

[he admits, quietly.]
Someone had killed her, and left her to be found like that, and said nothing about it. I assumed that they were avoiding taking any responsibility and facing what they had done.
So I used it to try to find out who.
