Game 115

Who: BLANKS AND STUFF
Where: ARENA AND PLACE
When: Day 183, midmorning
What: ~A GAME~

I heard a rumor that there was a game today! A game! A question, an answer! An answer and a question! Or maybe it is just a picnic! A hang-out for us. I invite you to a shindig! I heard a rumor that there was a game!

Love you. I'm here.

Did we do something wrong?

Then why did we fall?

[stroking Dagger's hair]

It was a terrible game. That's all. Chance and circumstance and blind actions causing terrible circumstances. It couldn't be helped.

What about next time?

We just keep fighting to protect what's ours. And staying true to ourselves.

[may be rocking him a little, soothingly]

I'll try to be there for you. No matter what. And even if something this bad happens again and I can't be there . . . I will be there for you after. Always.

[Seems content enough with that reply, but not going to pull away any time soon.]

If we don't even try...

If you don't try what . . .?

We have to keep trying to win no matter what, right?

Absolutely.

Because that's how Lynx and Corvus work.

[Pulls away a little to look up at him.]

Then I'll be fine. Not now, but it will be fine.

I'm counting on you.

It won't happen again.

[oh honey. smoothing Dagger's hair down]

It's okay to do whatever you need to, Dagger. Alright? It's fine.

Sh-she's okay, we've got her too. It's okay.

It's not okay that she was hurt!
