...thank you for letting me stay pretty, at least here.
[He's not wanted. Still he wants to say something. That was a pain in the ass. Everything about the recent developments is shit in a bucket. No harm in some words of comfort right? Especially since she can't rip his throat out here.
Yet.]
For what it's worth. I'm sorry.
Yet.]
For what it's worth. I'm sorry.
I can't imagine losing my beauty. I'm not sure what I'd ever do with myself.
[She's... not exactly thrilled about things herself, no, but she and her mun have worked out an arrangement. Of sorts.]
Thank you.
[Her voice comes out small, but at least she still sounds like herself, too.]
What I'd really like is an apology from that fairy princess you're so keen on, but your sympathy is at least polite.
Thank you.

[ward stares at her for a moment before pulling up his shirt on the left side. It's bandaged.
Quite a bit.]
She owes a lot of apologies.
Or has a lot she's going to catch up on. Who knows in the end. [Skye gets a potential love interest. Raina gets...what she gets and Ward doesn't get mentioned at all. He grimaces.]
I'm afraid you and I are going to be waiting a bit.

Let me tell you, it wasn't exactly high on my list either.
[She's still her, so that does make her giggle, but he's trying to be nice so she tries not to let it last too long.]
To be entirely fair, you did kidnap her. Again.
[A dramatic sigh.] I suppose this is why we shouldn't try to force things on those who won't appreciate them. Or some moral message like that.
Who knows is right, I think. I'm not really feeling too keen on trying to guess the future right now.

Excuse me for having to find comfort in the little things.
[It's spat out venomous as anything.]
It's shallow of me, sure, but you came out good as new. I came out... something else. Something that, in addition to looking like a monster out of a bad alien movie, hurts.
So yes, I'm glad she's freezing me before the change until we both have a better idea of what's going on. [Dripping sarcasm:] I guess I just should have been more careful what I wished for. Feel free to remind me.

Your choices, though - as far as I can tell, those aren't so pretty anywhere.
...You're still pretty but you're just not the same.
[ Fitz gets it. Really. He understands what it's like to totally lose control of yourself. To feel things spiralling out of control. If he can accept Skye. Well...he can accept Raina for what she is now, even if the change was different.]
But being not the same, is, you know....Fine.

Spare me the lecture. It's not like there's anyone in this world who's a perfect saint.
I didn't ask to come out good as new, you psycho bitch, I didn't want any of it. And if you think -- [that she came out good as new? it's because raina's a heartless bitter person who can't possibly understand how skye's heart is in shambles with every passing thought that she did that. she killed trip.]
You're the one who made her ugly, scale-y bed, so lie in it.

[Her first instinct is to snap. She doesn't hardly know the boy, she's aware of him but she's never had any reason to pay him much mind.
But for some reason, he's actually being decent to her. So she settles for a shrug.]
Being not the same hurts like hell.
[She figures he can relate to that, too.]

[A long, deep breath. She didn't come here to start shit, actually, but she's not entirely surprised that's how it's going.]
You didn't, but it was going to happen sooner or later. Somehow.
[Beat.]
Thorns, thank you. But if we all come to places like this to have a little bit of fun, why ruin that?

[ Hey, he's...kinda thankful she's not got razor sharp thorns to hurt him but he seems to be one of the few people to really have a handle on what it's like to freak out after a world changing event like this from a personal level. ]
Yeah.
[ There's a pause there because...well, he gets it. He understands that loses of control.]
It gets better though. You just...gotta take it a day at a time.
[ Or have a fake version of your friend in your head for a few months.]
Yeah.

What is the secret to your sense of resignation? Of success?
[He frowns.] For the record I think claws and teeth would be a lot more useful then what I'd bet is going to happen to me.

Yeah -- why? Because my father told you so? I didn't think you'd be that into listening to everything he promises you, Raina.
There isn't one. [Mostly true.] Acting like you know your shit goes pretty far in some circles.
Oh, I don't doubt that they're useful. They've already proved. But so far, they're not really useful enough to make up for the downsides.

Believe me, I wish I hadn't been.
[No point in being coy about it now.]
But that doesn't change the fact that it's true.

[So far, right now, there's no reason to use them, but -- well, she's sort of her own imaginary friend here. She's holding on to what was as a coping mechanism.
Or something like that.]
I'm sure. I think I might even get the chance, all things considered. But my mun is more for knowing than speculating, so this version of me gets a little while longer before I have to deal.

Our pre-ordained destinty, yadda yadda -- pass.
I thought you were going off to find others who'd also been screwed over? Off to take chances and make mistakes so to speak?
A perfect saint? No. But I can name a few people who haven't been on a murderous rampage recently.
[ He tried to for a while as well- Honestly that's one of the mistakes he made. Sometimes you just gave to accept the new reality instead of trying to pretending everything is like it was.]
Don't you think avoiding your issues will..? [ And he has a loss of words here because, well, frankly he's less comfortable around you than he would be around, say Mack.]
It'll be broken- I mean...worse later if you wait.

[Shrug.]
It's a practical decision. Lets her get a bit more time to figure out what's going on before she jumps into writing something without knowing, lets me have some time to come to terms with it. It's not like I'm not going to see what happens. I just come here and don't have to live it for a little while.
[She is exceptionally good at justifying things, after all.]
