[His voice is tired and shaky, but with an obviously forced cheerfulness.]

I, um... i-if I did anything to hurt anyone during this experiment, I-I'm really sorry. Everyone else is okay, r-right? Some of the things people got turned into were pretty scary.. I'm g-glad this is all over with.

I-I hope we don't have another experiment like that any time soon. I think I liked the ones that didn't involve being changed into anything b-better.

Would it, um... w-would it be okay if I came home now?

[OOC: Yeah, the kid is stammering like crazy because he's sitting out in the snow without a coat. Ratatosk, you are a genius.]

We didn't fight, if that's what has you worried. He couldn't have hurt me anyway.

Haa, very well. One moment. [she opens that little basket after she finishes healing, and pulls out a muffin for him. And one for herself, since this is all quite a bit of work and she's starting to feel a bit weary herself.]

I'll be waiting.

[knightofratatosk]

... I'm sorry.

[knightofratatosk]

H-he didn't... attack anyone... did he?

[Filtered]

[dissonates]

I haven't heard about any fights, and as far as I know, no one's died. Are you hurt at all?

[Filtered]

[knightofratatosk]

I, um... yes.

[Filtered]

[dissonates]

Then you probably got into a fight. How strong is he?

[Filtered]

[knightofratatosk]

P-pretty strong, I think. Richter could probably tell you more than I can.

[Filtered]

[dissonates]

I don't think he'd be interested in telling all this to a stranger. He doesn't seem like the type.

[Filtered]

[knightofratatosk]

He doesn't even t-tell me a lot of things.

[Filtered]

[dissonates]

You'll have to find out everything you can about Ratatosk yourself, though. If he's a part of you and something you can't control, you have to find out more for your own sake, as well as everyone else.

The only people I can r-really ask about it are Tenebrae and Richter, and I don't know how much Tenebrae is willing to tell me just yet. H-he keeps saying it will mess up the timeline.

[dissonates]

He should be more concerned about the people here.

[knightofratatosk]

Somehow I don't think that's really crossed his mind.

[That muffin is gone in a matter of seconds once it's in his hand-- looks like he really was starving. At least he's feeling well enough to eat now, which is a good sign.]

I don't know these people, so I can't really say much. But this is your responsibility, Emil. Do what's best for the people of Luceti.

What's best for the people... right!

[... whoops, totally forgot his manners there.]

I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to--

[dissonates]

...And have a little faith in us. People aren't so easily scared off as you think.

[holysovereign.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's perfectly fine. You must be terribly famished, and it'll help you regain your strength.

[knightofratatosk]

... I guess I'm still getting used t-to that. The people here really are different.

[Action]

[knightofratatosk]

Well, I am kind of hungry...

Here you go, Emil. [She hands him another.] I always believe in being prepared.
