[ setz probably isn't expecting to be spooked by someone he watched die right before his eyes a month ago, but that's what's happening right now anyway. ]

Boo.

Comments

[venomosity]

Yes, but you are our most frequent contributor by a landslide.

[subordinacy]

Is that so.

[... That's kind of embarrassing to hear, but Setz refuses to let her know that.]

Is the concept of communication really that incomprehensible to you?

[venomosity]

[ what could possibly go wrong when telling dahlia hawthorne about your emotional insecurities??? :o ]

Not inherently. You just seem... ah, more likely to open up about yourself in these notes, I've noticed. Is it because you know you won't be getting a response back?

[subordinacy]

[Uh.]

Why does it matter to you?

[Though that's probably part of it, yes. In truth, he hasn't thought that deeply about it, so.]

[venomosity]

Like I said, professional curiosity.

You really are focused on saving them all, aren't you?

[subordinacy]

[Flatly,]

What gave it away?

[venomosity]

[ she just laughs, because she knows he's not expecting a real answer to that ]

It's just interesting... I'm used to Reaper's Games where people only think about themselves. Why would you get attached to complete strangers when usually there isn't a guarantee on spots for revival?

[subordinacy]

... You've read my letters. [Embarrassingly enough.] You should have an idea of why I am who I am.

[venomosity]

I was mostly focused on appreciating the parts where you wanted to have Ichigo punch Jacopo.

Which he did, by the way.

[subordinacy]

[Setz's mouth twitches, though it's difficult to tell whether it was meant to be a smirk or a grimace.]

Then I'm satisfied with that. There's no need to focus on that sort of thing anymore.

[Frankly, in terms of anger, he's losing steam.]

[venomosity]

Oh? So does that mean my role as your personal messenger has come to an end? Or are you just going to start penning letters of hope and optimism to those hapless Souls?

[subordinacy]

As amusing as it might be to make you read that, I'll refrain.

[venomosity]

[ boo, let her bully him more!! ]

Well, if you change your mind, you know who the middle woman is.
