Who: Cole
Broadcast: Fleetwide (because he doesn't get the 'private' setting)
Action: A shuttle from the Pathstone which is currently out on its own
When: Two days after this broadcast and minutes after this exchange on the Red Fish.

OOC: This post has potential cw: self harm, suicide, murder, and other self destructive things. Please use discretion.

[The broadcast shows Cole's face, too close to the camera, tear streaked and eyes red rimmed and looking the very model of misery and distress. His voice is a cracked whisper.]

Fenris? I need to see you. I need you to do what Cassandra would've and I know you will. Can.

Because it's happened to other Compassions. Because I can feel it on the edges of me, sometimes, cold and quiet.

How do you know how to breathe? How to make your limbs move?

[walljumper]

...? You just do.

But if it's like breathing, then there's nothing you could do. You'd turn into one even though you didn't want to.

I don't believe anybody's like that. Not when I know a succubus who's working for a God that isn't evil. That's not s'posed to be possible either, you know?

If you're worried about turning into something else, you just have to get stronger than that impulse.

[Child it is not that simple.]

What you believe doesn't matter.

What is is what matters.

[Cole very rarely gets angry or offended, but this is starting to get to him. The idea that people 'just need to be stronger' to stop those things happening to them is starting to push him though.]

You say hurtful things. I don't want to talk to you.
