drops of jupiter.

[ so that was a lot, especially since it was keith’s first time coming face-to-face with a commander. he knows everyone must be tired and emotionally drained, but they have a lot of things they need to talk about. things that can’t wait to be sorted out. he has to collect his thoughts first, though--he’s not sure how to feel about this exactly, but he knows he’s feeling a lot of things. keith needs time to process everything, and he goes off to be alone for a little while.

eventually, michael, kayneth, ignis, camilla, and bucky bring over some food for the gang. it’s a much needed meal, and maybe some people want to eat in peace. unfortunately, keith is keith, and he thinks now is the best time to have a discussion.

Look, I know I’m not in the best position to say this, especially after how I acted back there. But unless anyone has any better ideas, we need to go to that lake and see the Guardian. We have to try. If that’s part of the solution to saving these people and going back home, then there’s really no other option.

[ he’s saying this with a calm head this time. he’s frustrated, clearly, but he’s speaking firmly and with nowhere near the same aggression he held earlier, back when he wanted to attack jupiter.

he doesn’t believe that he can be the leader anyone needs him to be. not here, not back at home. but it’s not going to stop him from trying to do what he feels is right.

And if we need someone to scope it out before we act, then I’ll do it.

Oh.

... Oh, okay?

[ Fist...

bump... ]


I know, but how she was at the end-! I wonder if it was a genuine concern?

It's possible. But I don't feel we can trust that. She seemed very...demon-y to me.

[He frowns to himself, as if he's just had a thought.]

Oh, is this projecting?
hyruglyphics: (for the icons!)

[ She flinches at that. She... can't entirely disagree, but calling everyone a demon seems so - way too much, to her. But then, Michael is a demon so. ]

... Perhaps so.
eudaimonikos: (as you can)

Hm.

[He's not calling everybody a demon. Just one very specific person!]

Well, let's just say her mindset was one I'm very familiar with. I doubt she's concerned about anyone outside herself.

Besides, the consequences of revealing what he did are far greater than anything else we could do. Even if she were legitimately worried, we couldn't have helped her find him. We don't know where he is.
hyruglyphics: (wow me)

That's true. We truly haven't seen him since Pastoria... it is only barely a lie.

[ It's an important lie, but it's not... a big one? No, it's still big. Huh. ]
eudaimonikos: (moral dimensions)

[He spreads his hands, grinning widely.]

See? Not a problem!
hyruglyphics: (some other icons might be there)

[ Ahaha.... ha. ]

Yes, we managed it.
