WHO: all of you
WHERE: day 74
WHEN: through the day tbh

[there's trauma approaching in the distance but it ain't showing up quite yet THIS day!

it's a really beautiful day, actually. sunny and deeply pleasant weather. maybe sometime today people might return from a snadventure (snake adventure), or maybe not? the wildlife and your lil resident sheep are all perky and up and at 'em and full of energy. hopping.

what about you?]

I know, right? Not surprising that she sucks, but still.

Something tells me the deal doesn't involve her unconditional support and nurturing with no expectations in return.

Yeah, that'd be the day. But it's nothing I can't handle. I told you that I'm used to dealing with gods; I meant that.

You're masterfully avoiding actually admitting to what she expects from you.

[ optimistically, ]

Because it doesn't really matter?

[ SLOWLY ]

"It doesn't matter"?

[ oh boy ]

We really didn't talk about it much. But it's also not your problem.

[ BOLD ANGLE TO TAKE WITH THE GUY WHO LITERALLY JUST DIED TO REMOVE A FISH CONTRACT FROM A LILYBELL TEENAGER ]

Mute's contract wasn't my problem either. It wasn't any of ours. So did it not matter?

— That's not what I meant. Of course that mattered.

Then give me one good reason it shouldn't matter that you're now in a similar position.

[ he should've expected this after the earful he got yesterday, and yet. here we are. opens and closes his mouth, looks down. sighs. ]

It's not the same thing. She...as far as I can tell, she broke my father's power in me. His influence is gone. It's all her now. But there's no...I don't really feel different. No evil fish hatred, or death, or agonies, or whatever. No gate, I don't think. It's not what Mute was going through.

[ TAKES A SIP OF COFFEE TO KEEP HIS COOL ]

Not knowing the terms doesn't make it less bad. For all we know, it's worse.

I can handle it.

Mute said that too.

[ No they didn't but he's lying and manipulating for a good cause. ]

Just because you can doesn't mean that you should, or will.

[ ah, he’s misrepresenting what I said to win an argument with another kid. We truly are just like a real family. ]

[ he knew u would understand his Vision ]

[ well he has no reason to DISBELIEVE IT, you monster.

but he does take a moment to let that sink in, at least. not the first time he's heard it since yesterday, and every time hits a little stranger. ]

I don't... [ what, exactly ] I wasn't trying to make more problems for you. After everything you — everyone — did.

[ FLICKS HIM IN THE FOREHEAD ]

[ help ]

It's not "making problems," it's not "unimportant," it's not "not our problem."

People are going to worry because they care about you! Your well-being is important to everyone here! The sooner you get used to that, the better.

[ flashbacks to tart calling minuet one of the weirdest lilybell adults. he understands now, sort of. ]

...you're going to keep saying that until I do, aren't you.

Yes.

[ THREAT ]

[ rubs his temples for a second, then holds up his hands ]

Okay, okay. I will...try to remember that.

Don't worry.

You'll be reminded.

[ why is that so ominous ]

...can I go back to eating my breakfast now, or did you want to threaten me a little more first?
