WEEK 4 - POST EXECUTION + WHATEVER THE FUCK THAT WAS

[chaoticlootral]

[ Well!

That was something truly terrible. But there's business to attend to, last requests and all that. Taako has ditched the veil and also most of the length of the skirt so he can actually move, and he and Magnus have somehow cornered Setz somewhere fairly soon after the spectacle.]

Hey, uh, homie, wait up. We've gotta chat.

Comments

[chaoticlootral]

Oh, great, great, great we're both going to die.

[Just. Holding his temples.]

[subordinacy]

Um... wouldn't you, by definition, then have to assist in an erasure...?

[ruffboi]

Sure. I mean, hopefully just by, uh, helping clean up a crime scene or something? But if I have to get my hands dirty, I can do that. It's not great, but if the Reapers have to kill someone every week, I'm not going to be cute about wanting to stay clean.

I'm not afraid of getting erased, either. Because we decided. The Erased are coming back. We're not leaving them behind.

[chaoticlootral]

I want it on the record that I'm not, like, looking forward to it or anything, but yeah. What he said.

[Adjusting his hat, a little anxiously though.]

Besides, we've done it before. Dying. It gets kinda boring after what, the fifth or sixth time?

[subordinacy]

[... Setz just stares with the confusion of someone who's seen their profiles but still doesn't understand how the hell someone dies that many times???

Anyhow.

Slowly, as he decides to just push that thought away,]

... You'll have to talk to Akira about that.

[ruffboi]

Yeah. We will.

[But at least Setz isn't telling them they tried it, and it didn't work. It's something new. Maybe it'll pan out.]

Maybe we should go get on that. But, uh, let's check in, okay? Keep us in the loop. I know there'll be things you can't share with us, but we're here to help.

[And...just going to ruffle his hair.]

You're a good kid, Setz. Don't take too much on on your own.

[chaoticlootral]

[Not going to ruffle his hair, because he? respects him? no he doesn't he's just as terrible.]

And try not to get murdered in the meantime, capiche?

[subordinacy]

Ah—?

[He's never going to get used to hair ruffles???]

A-All right...?
