In the Crossroads?

[ where'd he make that promise? gela's a tailor, and - well, it's shit to say, but cedric hasn't worked out what exactly she's doing here. can't be sending her too far afield. ]

Good of you.

[ to comfort her. which is what matters here, really, more than any practical hypothetical. but - ]

We could probably - dunno - get it written down, what folks want. Who she'd want to be sent to.

[ yeah, gela, and totally not vanya. funny how many of their conversations are about gela, and not vanya. ]

Some of them seem used to pyres.

[ the mortalitasi keep skulls, he thinks of saying. but he isn't sure about the mechanics - or significance - ]

Your family got a place?

Dunno. There's bones under the Vhenadahl, but that was just - temporary.

[ until someone could scrape together the money. can't say if his uncles did, never went back to see. ]

Chantry'll handle it, I expect. Head or the rest.

I guess. Went back to that street,

[ the rider. his voice is low, distracted of it. the words run together in odd lilt, ]

We burned - Ellie and I burned, mm. What's left. S'pose the pyres just seemed.

[ across the little tent, a hand flaps, hopeless for detail. he doesn't know the trade word for redundant. ]

I know.

[ it hangs there.

of course they mattered, of course vanya believes that; of course cedric could've fucked off for himself at any time. he can justify well as anyone - it's not why he stayed. so at length,
]

Why?

[ he bristles, arms crossed and protest bubbling behind teeth. his lip curls to snap: what's the tipping point? when does that unknown outweigh a man and his daughter, and a half dozen i didn't carry,

it may have been the wrong call. something in that stills; cedric watches the canopy. it may have been the wrong choice, but only one of them was sharp enough to choose.

(he might've hung in that sky forever)
]

I thought it'd be better here, [ is a stupid thing to admit. the war's everywhere. wars are the same, everywhere. ] But it's still just us.

I don't know. No,

[ reflex to walk it back. there are things you don't say, especially not to those who left. but he's already said it, but he's still talking now. ]

Not really. You saw the Plains. You didn't see - Caiman Brea didn't surrender over nothing.
dissolving: (listen)

[personal profile] dissolving 2024-05-05 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Didn't know that,

[ didn't keep track. plenty who made that choice, and plenty who kept in touch. but looking back wasn't exactly encouraged.

where'd you go, why - he's been talking a lot. waits, now, for the shape of it to sketch.

[ separate decisions, and at least two uneasy of it: i'm glad you’re here, wrestles with i'm pissed you left. of course he’d resign, after that business with antosha. that's only right. but giving up the work,

(you’re in the right place, barrow had assured him. barrow still stinks of lyrium, argues over discipline. never signed to the inquisition -

he’s kind, capable. brave. that isn’t enough.)
]

What’d you do between?
dissolving: (listen)

[personal profile] dissolving 2024-05-07 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
Mostly.

[ an echo that might pass for judgment (rests somewhere just shy). it helps sometimes, to think on this like any other trade; no more imbued with purpose or responsibility than the stonemason, the miller. the mercenary. but he doesn't really believe that. vanya doesn't, either. not if he came back.

was it good? dies on his tongue. did it feel any lighter?
]

When Riftwatch came in, with the device. The dragon. Whole time I was thinking - what’s that got to be like? Doing the real work?

[ a confession. some offering toward common ground: needful things can be empty ones. ]
dissolving: (think)

[personal profile] dissolving 2024-05-07 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
You're right.

[ what's it for? that kid ellie found never knew anything else. her whole life strings between the war, points on a map: here is where my father died. there, corypheus. ]

I just hope there's some of it left. [ rest. which he's presently denying them both. ] Shit, sorry, it's - near dawn, I reckon.
