Then you won't kill Dimitri. [ he speaks with confidence, if only to give claude some steady foundation when he's so lost in his own thoughts ] You'll find a way around it.
[ gently squeezes claude's hand he's still holding ]
Is it... worth commendation? That you killed Hoolay.
yves will just shift so he can pull a notebook out of his pocket, flipping past his ship notes and finding a blank page. he’ll turn so claude can see what he’s writing, which are just abbreviated parts of their convo ]
I think you went into Jing Yuan or Jiao’s memories. Don’t know why, though. Or how.
But it sounds like your memories got overwritten, and it’s getting hard to parse through what’s real and not.
The injuries are real though… which is concerning.

... do you want me to ask questions?
Do you remember anything that happened?
no subject
The town was attacked. We weren't able to save Lingsha and Feixiao... She left the town.
no subject
Ah... I'm sorry. That must've been alarming.
... are they friends of yours?
no subject
Considering how many times I saw Richie sneaking out of Lingsha's tent... I'm not the one you need to worry about being heartbroken.
no subject
no subject
... I'll worry about you regardless, Claude.
Could you... tell me the name of the town?
no subject
Anyway. ]
It didn't have one. It was just a makeshift location for us to camp.
no subject
... I don't think I like how battles seem to follow you.
[ not his claude.... that's his other blorbo ]
Do you... remember anything about a deer?
no subject
This is my first deployment.
[ He's never been to battle before! ]
no subject
[ it's like someone else's memories got uploaded into claude's reliver body.... ]
Do your injuries still hurt? What got you?
no subject
[ Desperately taking ibuprofen.
But oh. His gaze goes all distant again. ]
Hoolay bit me.
no subject
Hoolay is...? The enemy?
no subject
[ His brows furrow. Man, his brain is so scrambled. ]
No, hold on. Dimitri is the enemy commander.
no subject
[ soothingly, he'll let his fingers brush back claude's hair out of his face, threading through it lightly ]
There can be... two enemy commanders.
One you knew before all this, and one you knew after.
no subject
I... killed Hoolay. [ ... ] But I don't want to kill Dimitri.
[ This is not a yaoi thing. ]
no subject
Then you won't kill Dimitri. [ he speaks with confidence, if only to give claude some steady foundation when he's so lost in his own thoughts ] You'll find a way around it.
[ gently squeezes claude's hand he's still holding ]
Is it... worth commendation? That you killed Hoolay.
[ does he want congratulations? ]
no subject
Yeah, that guy's an asshole.
no subject
he can't help the laugh that gets punched out of him ]
Okay. Then congratulations on your victory, Claude.
I'm glad you came back safely. You scared me.
no subject
Were we gone long...?
no subject
We hung out last night... and you got back this afternoon? I think if you took any longer I would've had to start up a search party.
no subject
[ Briefly goes back to the war. ]
Strange.
no subject
Which part?
[ so much of this is strange ]
no subject
But especially... why? Or, what happened?
[ Brain wheels start spinning. ]

Everything seems to tie back to us not being used to this place, but this feels a little excessive.
