[CRYSTAL I HATE THIS AAAA. his head is slightly bowed.]
Do you think I wish to accept my own death, over something such as this? Would it not cause more problems in the end, I might be tempted to do as Kano did.
[his hands curl in on themselves, clenching slightly, but he keeps most of the anger from his tone.]
...my work here is not yet finished, that much is true as well. But it will be a disappointment, not to be able to speak with you further.
[If there's anything he knows, its that Emet-Selch is stubborn as hell. That's just how he is.]
Ha. [And there's actually a brief smile.] Well, I have some good news. People can send messages from wherever they go when they're "removed". So hey, drop me a letter sometime, why don't you. Tell me who I need to annoy if you want someone to bother or something. I'll need the distraction.
[he gives hansa a nod, somber enough despite that brief smile from him.]
If you need to know who to annoy, however-- I was unaware before it was mentioned that only one person could receive them, but ask our Leader to give you the hints toward other members in my place. I found another of us this week, so I know you will at least not be alone yet.
[another reason this stings so; his efforts are left unfinished, in the middle of trying to pursue and gather them all.]
[Tiger....the other Tiger members...Hansa frowns.]
Tiger is going to be vulnerable, at this rate. Especially since they've been at the bottom of the list for this long. I worry that what happens tomorrow won't be good for any of our remaining team members.
I'll have to act as fast as I can in your stead. The last thing we need is for something to happen like implied in that report we found. Leaders just...moving to try to get advantage over each other through killing...
See to it that you do. I will have faith in that much.
[hansa, he's sure, won't slack on that.]
There may be no time to stop such a thing, if it has been set in motion, but even so... we may do what is possible to ensure we all quit this place, regardless of what has already happened.
We'll have to work with what we have. There's some information I'm getting from others to try to understand the background workings a bit better. I'll try to push them to work a little faster. We need all we can get.

We lost Kaiza. [He finally says, his voice quiet, small, like a mouse hiding in a wall.] I don't think I want to accept losing you, too.

No, of course not. You're not that type of man.

[...besides chiron.
he's well aware chiron would throw an execution after what he did in trial, but he's sure hansa is, too.]

[Yeah, he probably would.]

[and perhaps some comfort, if hansa truly doesn't wish to lose his company.]

[And a long pause.]
Hey...do you want me to hang onto Kaiza's stuff for you?
no subject
The item I received is in that room as well. Do with it as you will.
no subject
[Not a problem.]
...I'll keep your item safe, until we see each other again. Its yours, after all. I would be rude to claim it as my own.

[A bittersweet sort of smile.]
Honestly, I'm glad you kept that drawing, even for such a little while. I think...Kaiza would be happy with that.

[he does not smile, remaining quiet.]

...All the more reason for the fact that we keep the torch of his memory burning, no matter what. Its only up to us.

That really is a nice thought. I'll keep that to heart.

[But just closes it. He seems to be thinking for a moment, before he says, quietly.]
It will. Though...I wish you were here with me, too. [A beat. He turns away.] I wouldn't mind spending another ten years with you, you know.
no subject
[it sounds like he means it to be teasing, but it falls just slightly short.]
no subject
[He laughs, but he just...lets his expression fall into something neutral.]
Anyways...I appreciate your company. I do. I won't lie about that.
