Percy: I will never hurt her. I will never hurt anybody intentionally, especially not you, any more than I already have. In return, I ask: never take your eyes off me. Never trust me. And that is the best friend that you can be.
Vax: I will recommit to that same promise I made
Percy: You can like me. I would love that. And in fact, I hope that I can earn your like
Vax, with feeling: I do like you
Percy: I just never want to earn your trust
Vax: Well, then it’s your lucky day
Tag: vax’ildan
Vax: Percy
Percy: Yes?
Vax: I’ve always liked you. From the beginning, I’ve always liked you.
Percy: I’ve always liked you, too
Vax: You are intelligent and charming
Percy: Thank you
Vax: I’ve been really angry at you
Percy: I’ve been encouraging it
Vax: I don’t know if it’s entirely fair, but I can’t shake it. I don’t know that I’m willing to let go of it yet
Percy: Good. I certainly do not deserve it yet. I don’t know if I ever will.
Vax: I’m having trouble
Percy: Me too. I don’t want to die as who I am. I would like to live long enough to be someone else. I think you understand that.
Percy: Do you trust me?
Vax: Uhhhh
Percy: Good answer
Vax: How are you doing? Personally?
Gilmore, laughing: Me? I’m absolutely fine…I’m fucking exhausted
Oh man, Vax checking in on Gilmore and trying to see how he’s doing personally and Gilmore kind of resisting it and I just…aaaah
Vax: Just don’t wuss out on me now. You’ve always been stronger than me, I need you to keep doing that
Vex: It’s all an act, dear
Vax: Bullshit
Vax, to Vex: You have always been the coolest person I’ve ever met, in my whole life, and you still are. You’re perfect, at least in your brother’s eyes. And I just hope that you believe in you as much as I do, because it’s quite a bit
Aaaaagh Vax going to check on Vex re: Syldor, “are you alright?”
