If nothing else, it's ... creative. I'll give you that much.

I suppose this means we're beyond the point of no return, then.

I'd have warned you against "jumping the gun" before we got here, but I'm almost positive you'd have called me a hypocrite for it.

Always an honour to be called on to serve.

[vigilawyer]

Certainly optimistic about it.

I take it this isn't your first time here?

[alwaysdramatic]

Optimistic, no. Prepared.

It is, actually. Brand new up in this "headspace." Seems alright so far.

[manyteeth]

Oh darling, your kind were beyond the point of no return before you were even born.

[vigilawyer]

'My kind'?

[ He could very well have made a witty remark here, but he holds his tongue.
He might not be able to see her, but other factors have allowed him to discern
that, at the very least, he's dealing with a different sort of someone, right now. ]

Sorry. I don't follow.

[manyteeth]

You... Earthrealmers, you humans. [ She sneers the word as if the very thought of it repulses her. ] Destroying what was given to you, squandering it. You and your weak kind.

You need someone to rule you.

[vigilawyer]

That's a generalization.

There are some people out there that do those sorts of things. But for every one of those people, there are countless that don't. People that want the corruption to stop. The destruction, to end. A few go as far as to risk life and limb to change things.

[ And he is one such person, though he may not look it. ]

[manyteeth]

Life and... limb?

[ There is an odd tone in her voice when repeating this, a combination of danger and suggestion. She idly takes a step closer to him. ]

Why would you risk something quite so enticing? Oh, sorry, were you making a generalisation about the handful of Earthrealmer do-gooders or were you being specific? I rather think you dislike generalisations.

Claire here, if you want her.

i legit just watched ep 6 so i'm just gonna take him from there. rip mun tbh

[vigilawyer]

Sometimes, something you 'want' isn't necessarily something you should have.

[ Because he does want her company, more than anything. But he'd be damned if he put her at risk, again. ]

[OOC: That was meant to be OOC D'oh!]

I regret what I said, Matt. I could fall in love with you...and I was so afraid to do that. Afraid that I'd lose you. [she frowns, full of regret]

[vigilawyer]

[ ooc: ah, man -- sorry about that! but this works either way, right? c: ]

Claire -- [ He starts, but stops himself short. ]

You shouldn't regret it; not at all. I already told you, didn't I? You were right. About me. About everything. And I --

[ A pause. ]

-- I don't want to see you hurt, tangled in my mess.

[clairetemple_rn]

Matt, I know you don't want to do that. But, I'm a big girl, I can handle myself. Could we at least try to see what happens? If either of us doesn't want to do it anymore...we just walk away. Deal?

[night_nurse]

At least yours is creative.

Mine jumped on the name and can't stop giggling about it for whatever reason.
