We will get an explanation, sooner or later. Promise.
I will keep trying. I will beat it out of them if it comes down to it.
[ It likely won't but like... just in terms of trying to be encouraging? Unfortunately he's kind of bad at anything that doesn't include empty promises and punching things. ]
[ marcoh.... yves just smiles faintly at that, even though it's still so depressed. he'll lift his head enough just enough so he can reach out to cup marcoh's cheek ]
I know you don't like being angry. So I don't want you to beat anyone.
[ marcoh is meant for HUGS ]
... I said we'd figure it out together, and I do mean it. [ a little wearily, because he knows he's in a State today: ] I'll be better by tomorrow.
[ we really adopted this fourth guy into the virche cast.
but yves will be content with that, drawing his hand back and letting himself just relax back into marcoh's hold with a sigh. ]
... but thank you. For caring about me enough to be willing to get a little angry.
[ he doesn't want it. he meant what he said that life is better when marcoh is happier. but... it's nice, to be cared about in every little way. and he doesn't want to turn away from that ]
[ THE FUCKING AUDACITY!!! PLEASE TWO OF OUR GUYS STILL NEEDED TO BOND MORE ]
... that makes the two of us.
But... Adolphe's strong. Stronger than me, maybe as strong as you? [ there's just a small little attempt at a smile again ] So... I do think he would've done his best to leave something for us to find.
[ he's quiet for a moment, and he thinks about it.
yves said that he wants to love everyone. even now, he stands true to that belief. what will he do when he finds adolphe's killer? because it has to be 'when' and not 'if'. it has to be. ]
... I'd like to speak with them, whatever the case may be. For both Brimstone and Adolphe.
[ Please have Jiaoqiu or Maomao fillet him for you when the day comes Yves... just don't let either of them eat the poison. ]
I know that Yoji was able to get his hands on a practice one. It isn't everything but it is better than being empty-handed, I think. Or stay close to someone you trust who has one?
no subject
Did I not say you can be greedy?
no subject
his hold tightens again, and he lets his head pillow against marcoh's (stacked) chest ]
I'm trying to be good.
no subject
I think God would understand sparing you at least one day of grace.
no subject
… do you still believe in God here, Marcoh?
[ yves goes through the motions for lucas but ]
no subject
Some think gods are infallible, but the truth is that they are just different. Their rights and wrongs are not ours.
But Alll-mer was once human too.
no subject
I think God needs to explain to me how I can lose my best friend twice in a place so close to Heaven.
[ why this wound again? ]
no subject

I won't.
[ He gets to focus all his energy and attention to making sure the remaining Two Out Of Four Guys are ok. Yayyy. ]
We will.

You are someone I'd like to protect, and see happy.
[ That's enough, isn't it? ]
no subject
Well... right back at you.
Thank you for caring about Adolphe too.
[ the marcoh and adolphe hug from party games.... he holds it close in his heart..... ]
no subject
Of course.
I would've liked to be able to do something.
[ Yves's friend is his friend. ]
no subject
... that makes the two of us.
But... Adolphe's strong. Stronger than me, maybe as strong as you? [ there's just a small little attempt at a smile again ] So... I do think he would've done his best to leave something for us to find.
no subject
[ They should've done betting pots at the party. ]
I trust you, and him, that he would have fought for everything he had.
no subject
[ softly, and a little hopefully. ]
Even though... I'm worried that whoever hurt him wasn't in their right mind or... there was something they really wanted.
[ the apples... ]
no subject
[ He could have said forgive, but that's not really his forgiveness to give. ]

[ But y'all if he gets another 'I was bored' type excuse, permission to beat their ass. ]
no subject
yves nods... and takes in a breath, feeling steadier. he looks up at marcoh. ]
... are you okay?
no subject
Not happy at all. Upset, that I was with both of them yesterday night, and I could do nothing.
But I am fine.
[ Objectively speaking. ]
no subject
[ a little mumble, frustrated especially when yves was paranoid about something happening again ]
no subject
[ A kitchen knife... oh Yves your sword. Just smack your foes with Puffy, if he ain't poisonous those spikes still gotta do something. ]
no subject
but he misses his fucking sword so bad ]
... I guess I can get resourceful... or ask if there's a way I can get my hands on a sword.
