lonely repear rudely woken up by gravity

[rockily]

Who: Eizen & You!
Broadcast: Fleetwide video.
Action: Aboard the Marsiva.
When: Right now boi.



[ There is very little worse than waking in an unfamiliar place, disorientated, confused, and incredibly disgruntled. Still that he can't remember ever going to sleep, he doesn't need sleep so why did he... Eizen shifts groggily attempting to get out of the bed he found himself in - only to come crashing down on the cold hard floor.

With his elbow landing on the device the feed flicks on just in time to see and hear the blond hair man curse loudly, sharp jarring pain shooting up his arm. Growling he pushes himself up to sit leaning against the side of the bed, hand reaching up to holding his still swimming head. ]

Where the hell...? Zaveid?

[ He can remember that the idiot had been with him, that they spent the evening drinking and talking as the world continued on around them unaware. ]

If this is some kind of joke I'm not laughing.

( ooc: !!!PLEASE NOTE!!! Eizen will not show up over the network, however you'll still be able to hear his voice!! Please enjoy the riveiting imagery of the Marsiva's walls and maybe part of a bed. Also please make sure to head over here and fill out this for me as well! Thanks friends! )

[ Eizen won't wait. Because if he did he'd be waiting a long time, days, weeks, maybe even a month, and this? He won't wait that long to see this resolved, won't sit with all of this eating away at him.

He scoffs at Dezel's threat, head cocked off to the side. ]

If he proves to be better than his predecessors he'll have nothing to fear from me. If not...

[ Eizen won't hesitate to strike him down. ]

[sylphystia]

... I would end him myself.

[Eizen doesn't need to know just how far they went to save Sorey from his actions as a hellion. He doesn't need to know that Mikleo, too, was a dragon.]

It's not just your sister's life on the line.

[ Something about that strikes a cord in Eizen, giving him a moment of pause. No will-less malak would threaten to strike down their master, nor would they who hold such conviction in their voice.

For all the hesitation he holds to believe Dezel's words, this makes him think. ]

Dezel, was it?

[sylphystia]

[If any seraph or malak is their own master, it's Dezel. That's for sure.]

Yeah?

[rockily]

[ He wants to believe, he realizes, believe that humans are capable of learning from their mistakes. That the cruelties once inflicted upon their kind never happened again. He wants to believe that there are more people out there like Aifread and his crew. And Edna, he wants to believe she is happy and safe with people who treat her better than her own brother ever did.

He want too, but he can't. Not yet. ]

I hope your Shepherd can prove me wrong.

[Dezel thinks of how he died, not for the first time. He remembers the gun in his hand. He remembers Sorey's shattered expression when Dezel gave his life for Rose, for Sorey. For their dream.

For himself.]

He's the kind of guy who'll let you choose your own path even if he disagrees with it. Even if you betray him. Even if it gets you killed.

And then, after all of that, he'll still say you're a friend.

It's... [His voice cracks a little at the edges.] It's infuriating.

[rockily]

[ Eizen exhales, heavily, slumping against a wall of one of the Marsiva's halls. ]

He sounds like one hell of a kid.

[ Someone like that wouldn't tether Edna against her will, something inside him reasons. Wouldn't tether Zaveid. ]

A little too optimistic and maybe naive, but a good kid.

[ Unbidden his thoughts drift to Laphicet and something in his chest aches. ]

[sylphystia]

He is.

[He hopes Sorey doesn't find this conversation, but he probably will. Dezel decides he doesn't really care.]

People like me don't have friends like him.

[rockily]

[ That sounds too familiar, cuts too close. Eizen feels himself deflating, anger slowly draining from his veins. His hand finds his pocket, curling around the coin that sits within and he sighs. ]
