Well, that's just how it is. I'm sure a stubborn demon like yourself will be able to make the holy priest to have common sense. I used to be a champion for that sort of stuff. Love and Peace.
[ he nods, doing his best to look determined. ]
But promise me that you won't let yourself get completely swayed by your feelings for him him, okay? Love is a wonderful thing, but sometimes, too much of a good thing can become a bad thing.
It's times like this he wishes he was more observant, or smarter, or better with his words, because something about this doesn't settle well with him.]
[ well, too bad, because he's not touching that subject again with a 10 foot pole. ]
A part of me feels like we shouldn't worry too hard. You heard what Shigaraki said, right? Knowing Skywarp, it was probably something consensual between him and the killer, or something like that.
[ he crosses his arms, leaning his weight on one foot. ]
The part that worries me is if the killer wants to redo that with someone else. [ a pause. ] I don't suppose we can privately ask people nicely now, can we?
Frankly, I don't think that's something to worry about for most people here.
[ he says it directly, almost dully, as if it were a subject that he were somehow used to. ]
I don't think that people felt strongly enough about Skywarp that they would kill in revenge nor do I think that they would sell them out. Most people remaining are a close knit group, after all. Don't'cha think so too?
[crea between this and how you acted with Kanon he is getting the idea that you are definitely not okay actually]
...I don't think revenge will happen. But if more people need to die, then others are going to want to look at those that are a threat, no matter who they are.
Until we find a solution, people are gonna continue to die, whether it's Skywarp's killer or not. That's why we have to continue trying to find an alternative.
[ so that they can get out of here. so that he can go home, back to his shitty job and to sion's side. ]
I don't want to consider anyone a threat, though. Even now.

I didn't like what he chose to do. But I shouldn't have compared him to Lobelia. That was cruel of me.
no subject
ahem. ]
Wasn't it cruel of him to put you through that, too? Though I guess you know him better than I would.
no subject
But he takes his time thinking through his answer, a hand clenched against his shirt near his stomach.]
It hurt. I know it hurt him to see me in danger last week. And he still...
...
I don't know. I want to talk to him.
no subject

You really are kind, Beel. You really care about him a lot.
no subject
Yeah.
I love him, Crea.
That's... why I don't want to let this sit. Even if I'm hurt or mad. I'd just be repeating hurtful things done to me. I don't want that.
I want to tell him how I feel. And I want to hear what he has to say.

Crea.
...
Are you okay?
no subject
[ no, he's not very fine. he's realizing stuff he didn't want to realize and the thing he is realizing is dating a guy that he doesn't like. ]
I'm worried that we let a killer get away and we don't even know who they are. It's probably gonna be eating at me for a while, honestly.
no subject
[But he isn't sure what he meant, or how to voice it. So the silence sits awkwardly as his hand rings against his shirt.]
But you're right. Someone got away with it. There's nothing we can do for now, though.

he doesn't like this!!!!!!!!!!!!! But he can tell when he's hit a stop sign, even if it's one that's hard to back away from.
...]
...I don't know. I don't think so.
What's to stop people from killing them in retaliation? Or voting for them if this happens again, and letting someone else go free?

I know you don't, Crea. I don't, either.
I just don't know if others will agree.
[He sighs tiredly, scooping up his discarded clothes to put them on the bed.]
...Did you still want to take care of the laundry?
no subject
[ a being that crea has had more than enough of for an entire lifetime and timeline. ]
You go take care of your unfinished business with Temenos. I trust you.
[ what isn't said here is that he doesn't trust temenos. ]
no subject
I'll be fine. He knows we need to talk.
I'm going to go take a run, so I don't make it worse by losing my temper. But I'll be back here for bed. Promise.
I'll get you some snacks as thanks. Is that okay?
no subject
If you don't mind. But don't force yourself, okay?
no subject
I never have to force myself for good snacks. Don't forget who you're talking to.
no subject
Hopefully things go well. He'd be stupid to let you go.
[ that, he means. ]
