conflictresolution

You know that I do whatever I can to avoid such an outcome, correct? The Council isn't one to take direct action against a Chosen. Another Chosen however....

chosen against another chosen. is that ur plan?

Pitting them against each other is not difficult, but I'd prefer to keep them complacent until the last moment. I want what the Council has, but no doubt some would oppose. I will take Aldrip as I took the undercity.

oh PLENTY of some will oppose. but hey, who am i to say "dont chase ur dreams", eh? i just got one teeny tiny condition.

And that is?

just dont hurt any of my friends? i dont have a lot of them, but.

i dont want u and them to go head to head with each other.

Provide me a list of names, and I will do what I can to pull them to our side. If they actively stand against me, I'll bring them in line.

[...huh.]

ure pretty serious and fed up how things are, huh?

[because why else is her father this aggressive and wanting to set things in motion? naturally, this isn't TOO new, but maybe the lost of ragna was the final straw for him.]

Indeed. It seems about time for bold action. I have enough resources for change that will benefit us both. Perhaps even all of us once the nay-sayers are put in their place.

is there anything i need to do? once im out of the clinic, that is.

Let me handle these initial stages. I want you safe in the clinic. I will call on you soon, I promise.

but the monsters might still be out there. im not bleeding so much anymore. really.

I understand. The monsters out there don't concern me. I'll bring them in line the same as everyone else.

woah hold on there, buster. look, ure plenty of scary. VERY villainous. more than me!

but.

monsters are. u know. *monsters*. u cant really reason with creatures. they only think about one thing and one thing only. and thats having a midnight snack. i dont want u to be on their menu. so stay away from them. please. for me?

I don't care to reason with them. I intend to send them on their way if I can't control them. I promised I would not succumb to death, my daughter. I will keep that promise.

ok, good. because i miss u and i wanna have dinner with u.

and u need to fix my hair. i. i kinda did something to it.

Very well. I will stop by with something for us to eat before I must be away for a time. Keep those in the infirmary safe; we never know when they will be useful. Did you cut it off to your knees as you requested?

alright.

not exactly. with my head not being right lately, and with ragna gone, and... not hearing from ekko or some of my friends, i just. i think i might have blacked out somehow. somewhere.

i cut off all of my hair. again.

[Normally, he would probably make a massive deal of the fact that she cut her hair off. He had always encouraged its growth for the years they associated with each other. He should be upset, yet he was not.]

Cut it all off? Jinx, that will require fixing. Did you use a knife or scissors?

scissors. guess i swiped it from somewhere, i dont remember.

ure not mad at me?

Did you hurt yourself in that fugue state? Do you wish for me to be angry?

[she will purposely not answer the first question, but answer the second.]

well, no. but. i know u like my hair a lot. and ure going through SO much. i dont want to be more of burden.

It provided you a unique look which I encouraged. You will never be a burden to me.

alright. and ure sure ure ok, dad?

Never better, my daughter. Invigorated even.
