[ 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?
[ i'm gonna be honest marcoh should be at least a little worried but yves won't say that out loud because it sounds like something he'd get in big trouble for
but yves will just give him a squeeze again, since he still hasn't let go of this hug ]
You don't need to fight my battles for me. I can do it, too. Even though I'd be grateful for the help.
There's no future in which I'm leaving Adolphe behind.

[ 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.

no subject
but yves nods - and smiles a little wryly at the suggestion ]
... I can see where Adolphe's ended up. Even if we don't use the same sword.
[ he doesn't know where charlie's stuff went, but he will want to do this anyway... bestie... ]
no subject
[ He hesitates a little, quiet. Glancing at Yves with the weight of someone who really wants to say something but has to hold it back. ]
...Grieve, but do not give in to the despair yet. If it is like Charlie, then their soul has just... gone somewhere, right?
no subject
Are you worried I'm going to try to die again?
no subject
I'm saying that if there is the chance at all that it's out there, I will do what it takes to bring it back.

no subject
I won't be fighting it for you.
[ Affirmations and all that. ]
no subject
Mm... For all of them, right? Charlie, Brimstone, Adolphe... Jing Yuan, and whoever we lose because of their process...
[ yves nods, understanding ]
I'd like to get them all back.
no subject
As many as you want babygirl... ]
no subject
... it's okay if you don't forgive the people who hurt them. You can have a firm enough stance for us both.
no subject
[ He imagines Yves would do that much. And then it turns out Yves does so much more than that...... ]
