week 2; tuesday w/ fane

[alchemenace]

[ well varian has had quite The Day and he wants to just go die under the covers now thanks. partially because of pain, partially from guilt, but mostly because wow boy is he really embarrassed.

unfortunately for him, his partner never sleeps, so. he awkwardly waves with his one good arm when he sees Fane ]

... Heyyyyyy.

[ smooth. ]

I agree. Murdercastle isn't so bad if we can at least get something out of it.

[ which is part of why he got himself injured i remembered the context of this thread. he shrugs back at Fane ]

[faceripper]

[ ok. but. ]

...Did I just hear you correctly? "Murdercastle"?

[alchemenace]

[ ....... nyeh :3? ]

That's what Stephie calls it. I mean, it's, it's accurate?

[faceripper]

It is accurate, yes, but it is—

[ He pauses, since when he tries to think of a word for what this makes him feel, he truly can't find one. So. He'll just truly speak his mind. ]

I don't know. It irritates me, for some reason. It's quite a bit of levity for this place.

[alchemenace]

[ oh. hm. for varian, the levity is what makes it appealing. if he gave everything the appropriate gravitas it deserved, he wouldn't be able to handle it. it also became so much easier to deal with the things he did in corona when he was flippant about them, but he was downplaying issues a long time before that.

still, it's not like he's particularly attached to the term, so: ]

O-oh. Um. I can just not use it if you prefer?
