[ slowly, he rises from where they're seated, reaching to touch her shoulder. ]

It's okay - it's just been a long, long day, and I'm worried about how everybody is doing. I'm going to go check up on Beau. If you need anything... [ he looks at her, feeling that storm of worry for iris and the other dorm heads, the anger at wiwaldi growing more and more as time goes on, the exhaustion from weeks of running on fumes. ]

We'll be here with you.

[viola looks confused, and then a bit guilty, wondering if she'd managed to say or do the wrong thing - ]
azuta: (ღ (tell me something))

[up until she winces again, bringing a hand up to her head, eyes blinking a few times.]

... Oh. So that's how it's going to be.

[the

sharpness in her tone might imply that a certain villainess is back,]

[ well there's that, at least. kon is about to smother his own guilt, because he does still feel that loyalty with viola - but then. ]

This place is a fucking joke. [ please, ] You going to be able to fight her back?
azuta: (ღ when you can be a venus flytrap)

[ . . . . her head hurts so bad. there's still a pounding there that makes her wince, but she tries for nonchalant, tries to focus on just throwing her hair over her shoulder.]

.... I don't know. I intend on making every effort, of course - I don't want to be any type of puppet again, but...

You should probably prepare for the worst. I'm not a good enemy to have.

[ hand still at her shoulder, he leans down, pressing a kiss to the top of her head. ]

I'll rally the troops. Do what you can - but we'll do whatever we have to on our end. Winter's taught me that we take care of our own.
azuta: (ღ open my door)

[personal profile] azuta 2021-07-19 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ . . . she accepts this, but there's something a little bit more cautious in her gaze.]

... Winter would make me most proud if they will be able to function even without a figurehead.

Remember that.

[ as he pulls back, heading towards the door, he looks at her one last time. ]

... yeah. We'll make you proud, Iris. But don't wait up for us - if you can tear her apart before we can get to the end, we'll be all the more relieved.
azuta: (ღ to get knocked off our feet)

[ . . . . . she closes her eyes at that and just manages a soft.]

... I've been trying, but I don't think any of you are going to like my efforts.

Go on - talk to the others. I'll likely be here if and when you need me. And if I'm not, you're resourceful enough that I'm not worried.

[winter will manage, with or without her.]

[ iris, honey, this is another instance of "nobody liked that" when you say things.

but drastic times call for drastic measures, and kon takes a deep breath.

See you soon, Iris. [ bye time to go stir up the disarray of winters ]
