You best consider it, because if you do, I'm going with you. I'm not leaving here without you.

[ Chasing her gaze down to look at her, closely. ]

What are you saying right now?

[ He knows what she's getting at, but he wants her to say it plainly if she's doing that. ]

[outsidebones]

I'm not saying anything specific. I would not make a move so early.

[calm down it's just a hypothetical murder.]

I don't want to involve you in any of it, and I do not promise to inform you.

[ breathing out harshly through his nose, thanks for the brief heart attack!! ]

Oh, shut up. You're dumb as a bag of rocks sometimes. If I can't talk you down - and I'll probably manage, I'm very good at it - you're going to tell me and I'm going to help you. You know as much.

[scowling back at him.]

You are wrong. This is different than what we experienced before.

[ He's giving her an easy grin, but he does have to cough just a little bit into his hand, trying to hide the few amber petals he's managed to hack up. ]

Not different enough to change my mind.

[outsidebones]

I don't want you to carry the burdens of something that I must do.

[ putting an arm around her shoulders, squeezing tightly. ]

That's the trade-off. I'm going to carry it regardless.
