[grumbles:]

Good. They probably deserved it.

[she doesn't know anything about the lab but listen she is going to be on the little girl's side, for better or for worse.]

Oripathy? Is that what she's got? [a beat.] Is that what you've got? With the bubbles.

[mygod]

Sort of, it's... Basically, I don't have Oripathy. My specific issue is that if I get it, it'll kill me in weeks. [ she points at her ears. ] I'm an elf, as you can see. But where I'm from, we're as close to extinct as you can get, and it's because we're so weak to Oripathy. It killed my family. I haven't ever even been in the same room as Iffy with my real body, since that might kill me.

[she seems a little surprised to hear the word elf, if only because half the people she's talked to have been like yeah! elves, those are things i have, or it's more like what do you mean elf like santa's elves or

but it gives her some context, so she nods.]

Makes a load of sense. I wouldn't stick around if that were the case for me, either. [...] I'm sorry about your family. That's got to be lonely, being one of the last.

[mygod]

[ her expression drops for a second, before smoothing back out. ] You get used to it! Plus, there's plenty of other people around me, so it's not really like being alone.

[ablazement]

Gods, you shouldn't have to be used to it, though.

[but saying that doesn't help, so.]

Are you stuck with this cult forever? I know Fam said he agreed to join, but.

[mygod]

None of us plan to stick here forever, at least. Technically, once the cult reaches their goal, there's no point in continuing after that. [ she pauses. ] ... although now I realize the problem of not wanting them to reach the goal and that exit strategy...

[ablazement]

[she snorts]

Little hiccup in the plan, yeah. I appreciate the fact that you didn't immediately change your mind about sacrificing us all the second you realized?

[mygod]

I may be many things, but disloyal is not one of them. [ ... ] Well, not to the cult, I suppose... hm... I guess that is still disloyalty...

[ablazement]

You are really talking yourself into a corner here, huh.

[mygod]

It just keeps getting worse. [ she covers her own mouth with her hand. ]

[ablazement]

[this icon is cracking me up]

Anyway. [a beat.] Thanks for trusting me with your face, even if it was just because of the memory bullshit.

[mygod]

... no problem. Just, you know, keep it quiet. People might think I'm playing favorites or something! [ and also hiding from the cult, or whatever, the other thing is more important ]
