I3DT - Murder

"Was... doing fine until you came in," she mutters bitterly, slumping, on the verge of collapse.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon May 05, 2014 2:19 am

"Yeah, well, apparently today is the day I go around ruining things."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon May 05, 2014 12:27 pm

Sadly, Sam doesn't answer, the fatigue finally overtaking her.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon May 05, 2014 12:34 pm

She smiles a bit grimly and puts Sam's arm over her shoulder and tries to lift her up to at least carry her to one of the bunks in the Point.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon May 05, 2014 12:37 pm

Though she's a bit damp, this proves fairly easy.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon May 05, 2014 1:02 pm

"This week could have started better..." she sighs to herself as she sits down on a chair next to Sam.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon May 05, 2014 1:25 pm

There is a feeling that her mind is still questing out, albeit without the augmentation of Cerebra, or even much purpose given her unconscious state. Still, the unseen flock seems restless around the room.

Many hours later, she starts to stir with a faint mumble and muzzy blinking.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 12:55 pm

By this point Nailah has fallen asleep in the chair next to her, though it's only a light slumber and she stirs when Sam comes to.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 12:57 pm

"Nnh... how long?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 1:09 pm

"It's past midnight." she says after looking at her watch.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 1:15 pm

"She'll be long gone..." she sighs.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 1:17 pm

"We'll find her. But maybe not in a way that'll leave you exhausted by the time you get to her, okay?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 1:19 pm

"The longer she's out there, the more she can accomplish. I just couldn't allow that."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 1:23 pm

"And I won't let one of those thing be her getting to you. You exhaust yourself finding her and she offers you up a juicy human sacrifice. Where do you think that'd end?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 1:26 pm

"She evoked Cuchulainn, love."

"The only thing she's done is reminded me of what awaits those who offend the Morrigan."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 1:33 pm

"Yes, I'm sure all she had in mind was pissing you off and then wait for you to find her."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:08 pm

"I'm saying she hasn't thought this through if she's assuming my mindset would be favorable to her."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:22 pm

"I don't know what she's trying to do but nothing good was going to come of this. Something's not right."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:23 pm

"I just... I don't like feeling useless in all this."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:26 pm

"You brought her in before, you'll do so again."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:37 pm

"I'm beginning to regret bringing her in."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:48 pm

"I can't say I disagree too strenuously..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:52 pm

"We need an end to this, and it just seems there never is."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 2:58 pm

"Do you want the comfortable answer or the truth?" she smiles wryly.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 3:01 pm

"I think we left comfort behind a long time ago."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 3:09 pm

"The truth is, you're probably right and if it was up to me I would gladly put an end to her. But I also know that it's not easy to live with these things on your conscience."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 3:46 pm

"I had my hands around her neck. I'm honestly starting to wonder why I let go."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 4:12 pm

"Because you're one of the good ones."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 4:16 pm

"For all it's helped."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 4:25 pm

"You can't save everybody, Sam..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 4:30 pm

"I can make sure she never hurts or uses anyone again..."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 4:43 pm

"I'm... not exactly the one to lecture anybody else on the morality of killing someone."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 4:54 pm

"I realize I'm probably too wrapped up in this, but it just seems like the authorities never take this seriously."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 5:01 pm

"I'm sure they're doing what they can."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 5:02 pm

"Aye, and that would be easier to accept if there wasn't this nagging part of me that feels more than worthy of visiting... a judgement upon her."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 5:14 pm

"Trust me, I know that feeling all too well. But I also know that because I let that get to my head two girls ended up dead and a third in a waking coma."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 5:17 pm

"...point taken," she frowns.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue May 06, 2014 5:22 pm

"Sorry, I know that's not what you wanted to hear."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue May 06, 2014 5:28 pm

"I don't know what I want to hear."
