If that's what you want.

See you soon, Rhys.

[It's a few minutes before he knocks.]
ninefox: (kiss)

[Jedao looks...tired, and sad. His eyes aren't red but his shoulders sag a little under his uniform. He waits like he's bracing for something.

When the hug comes, he's still for a moment of pure surprise, then melts into it, tucks his face into the crook of Rhys's neck, arms coming up to cling back tightly. He takes slow, deep breaths as he holds on, not quite letting himself shudder.]


I'm sorry for...calling you things.

[Even if he hadn't meant Rhys specifically, or Rhys as a person, with all of them - well, all the more reason to apologize.]

[Jedao manages to stop clinging with one hand long enough to stroke a slow, soothing hand down Rhys's back, even as he takes a hitching, wavering sort of breath, followed by a raggedy sigh.]

Just a fucking psycho then?

The word doesn't matter. I'm not....good. No one has to be delicate about it.

[Jedao has not really been exposed to the wonderful world of trolleyology. But he can pick up the gist.]

You have to kill the guy laying the train tracks, obviously.

[Which is easier to say than I put everyone I loved on the train just to get to the switch.]

If there's no right answer, you have to change the question.

[He wouldn't. He didn't. He killed everyone, fucking up the scenario.

He goes a little bit stiff, even as his hands clutch fistfuls of Rhys's clothes. It sounds awful and narcissistic, I'm not like the rest of you. But before Fives, he was so, so alone.]


I don't understand why you're so invested in this word.

[There's a long quiet where Jedao doesn't say what he's thinking.]

Why?

I feel like this is not really a nuanced understanding of how fuckin' weird cats can be.

[Truculent mumbling more than real argument.]

People are animals too. We have natures. Some parts of people are terrible.
