[calm down pessimist queen]

Alright, maybe easy was the wrong word, but I don't want to... just be something else you have to worry about.

[bloodbiter]

[don't tell her how to feel about murdership

also oh my god]

That's not what - of course you aren't just something I have to worry about. You're my friend.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[:)]

Thanks, Adelina. [is that really something you have to thank her for--] I worry about you, too. There's just things and feelings here that I think it's better not to linger on too much. Does that make sense?

[bloodbiter]

Of course. I hope you don't think I'm dwelling.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Hmm... not right now? [he's just teasing] No, I'm only trying to explain... I know some people think I'm in denial. But everyone has different ways to cope.

[and his involves putting on a smile because #why]

[bloodbiter]

No, I don't think that. It would be quite impressive for anyone to be in denial when at least ten people have died and we've been in this place for over a month.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

I said "some people". [or more likely he didn't want to say people think he's stupid even tho that's more accurate]

[bloodbiter]

Have many people said as much?

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Mmm... most of them not to my face. [shrugs] It doesn't matter.

[bloodbiter]

[stares into his soul]

Are you certain?

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Yes? I said so, didn't I?

[his soul says "meh" because its just annoying to have people constantly THIS CHILD WILL DIE over him but hey at least they like him]

[bloodbiter]

[she doesn't sigh but she wants too!!]

Of course. If anything should arise during the week... This motive does seem harsher than the last. Do take care of yourself.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

You too. I know you were worried about this one.

[she'd called it super harsh on the week it didnt happen anyway so]

[bloodbiter]

Was I?

[casually forgets about that because she's absolutely a hypocrite who doesn't want him to worry]

It is harsher than what they've tempted us with in the past, but there's nothing I'm particularly frightened of.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[why are the Ads so similar plz kill them. also adelina wtf]

Everyone's afraid of something. There's nothing wrong with that.

[bloodbiter]

Of course there isn't. But...

[shrugs!! "after a given number of near death experiences you learn to chill the fuck out" probably would not be a comforting response]

There are things I dislike, of course, but fear is a rather strong word. Although I was terrified of spiders when I was younger.

[before the monster hunting days]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[listen he won't question the whole "I fear nothing" because he gets it, but. what. omg.] Spiders? Really? I can't see that at all.

[bloodbiter]

[a small laugh]

When I was twelve I had to beg one of the sorcerers who worked for my father to find a spell that could deter them from the castle grounds. Prior to that I had to ask my sister to dispose of them whenever I glimpsed one.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[oooomgggg]

That's-- strangely adorable. I never would've guessed that. But didn't deterring the spiders away just bring in more bugs?

[bloodbiter]

Other insects never bothered me much. I'm not certain why.

[a small pause, recalling something, and then another chuckle]

I would use the word ridiculous rather than adorable. I remember the first time I went far from the castle, I was traveling through a forest and had to descend into a cave at one point, and I was very hesitant... This was after I already had to face off against an ogre, and I stood above the opening to the cave thinking, what if I see a spider there?

[an actual thing that happened, what a loser]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[he's laughing outright now he can't take it]

You never know-- maybe a big enough spider could've scared that ogre, too.

[bloodbiter]

[that gets an outright laugh from her]

Can you imagine? As large as they are, running away, knocking down trees in their wake to escape a creature smaller than my finger?

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[oh my god stop he cant take that image he's trying to muffle his laughter behind his hand]

Yelling for someone else to come take care of it while they climb on a stump in fear, half the forest taken down already?

[bloodbiter]

[so many people are dead and this is the conversation they're choosing to have]

Throwing livestock around wildly while it aims to kill it or startle it away...

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[murders don't hurt until Friday this is fine]

Running straight into a spider web and screeching at high decibels to get it off, scaring off all the wild life...
