mom told me one time i saw a jackrabbit in the wastes and almost caught it, but i think she was exaggerating to hype me up... i can't even catch one of those NOW without setting a trap first
[ that he knows of. zephyr won't say it (or write it in this case), but he's been getting some... questionable flashes every now and then involving a lantern, running, screaming and... it's Probably Nothing though. ]
I gotta know something though
did I I mean did
[ his handwriting gets a little shaky on the last couple letters - ]
( he can't really remember, but from what bits and pieces he's gotten back since he woke up, plus the marks that can't have come from his own transformation, like the ones on his face, he'd have to guess... yeah. they went at it pretty bad. it's just a good thing Ain patched him up so nice. or that he got away before he was completely disemboweled. or both. )
no, dad. not at all. the only one who hurt me was me
( i mean technically, since it's all his fault and all, it's not a lie. )
Might wind up with another scar on my face but my mouth is healing up. Just patches of red at this point and pretty sore, but better than what they said it looked like.
My arm on the other hand Gods only know how many stitches. They've got it wrapped tight for now and they want me to keep it in a sling, and my shoulder feels like I ran it straight into a wall.
[ WHICH WOULDN'T... be far from the truth, oops. ]
( ugh... how much of that was him? he can't even properly remember. just screaming and flailing, clawing at him, and then fighting him off, the horrible look of his face when he got close enough to see it... yeah, this sucks. but he's definitely not telling him about any of his other injuries after that. not a chance. )
here and there when I think about it too long or I close my eyes. The only thing I clearly remember is getting stuck in a busted doorway. I don't even know what happened to the people I went in with.
i don't really remember either, but i know enough. i know i attacked you and a bunch of other people but from what i hear i didn't kill anyone, so hey. that's a step up from the usual
What do you want me to say, Law? That I blame you? Say it's your fault?
Because I'm... I couldn't.
If you attacked me, you must've had a reason for it and if I can't remember anything then... I must've tried to go after you, right? I cannot and will not be angry with you for that.
Salamander told me what I looked like when they found me. It
I wouldn't be surprised if you thought I was a zeugle. Or... maybe I charged after you and you were only acting in self-defense. I don't know. Either way I am not pointing my finger at you.
