--best that you are no longer here. -=it sounds like Hawke is speaking to someone, but there's no one visible from the PCD's angle.=-

There are humans here, and while they do not know you, you would not be happy. It is... good, too.. you will not remember. -=his hands are cradling some feathers that don't look native here. And a strip of leather.=-

I will remember. Always.




[[OOC: FYI, while the log hasn't finished, Hawke accidently killed Saul while everyone tried to contain him after setting Sasuke's house on fire. So not only is he dealing with Sohl gone, he's trying to deal with the fact that he killed someone.]]

So then this was not a memorable kill. You have had more dramatic ones.

[golden_hawke]

I have never taken a life in that manner. -=his voice drops.=-

And I would rather not think about it now.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

You eliminated a grave threat to the city when others were obsessed with breaking and leaving him. I think it more noble than the other option, and certainly more practical.

[golden_hawke]

-=A silent stare.=-

The dead return here, if you were not aware.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

Most certainly, having died once myself.

[Her look is just as level.]

Let us hope, for the sake of the more defenseless in the city, he returns with his small amount of self-control still intact. That would likely prove most lethal.

But it was your call. Certainly you feel it was the correct one?

[golden_hawke]

-=mouth forms a hard, small line as he straightens=-

I did not mean to do it.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

That does not change the fact that you did. You went there in hopes of breaking him, and instead killed him. Either way, you would have destroyed.

[golden_hawke]

Death of this nature will only bring about more death.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

You still joined in. And then you accidentally killed someone. How, precisely, does that happen by accident?

[golden_hawke]

The Faunlyn are larger, and more blood runs through them. I am not used to how much less a human holds.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

Hardly an excuse. You have fought him before, in anger. I think you once again became angry.

[golden_hawke]

I do not speak untruths.

[scarysnakelady]

I would have killed him myself if another hadn't gotten to him first.

He pissed off too many people, Carmen, yourself being one of them, to an extent. Some of us live lives in blood, himself included.

Stop it.

[golden_hawke]

I can speak for myself.




[[OoC: However, carry on!]]

[scarysnakelady]

As can I. Don't go around claiming battles for yourself Hawke, some of us others might not like it.

[OOC: <3! ]

[golden_hawke]

I have claimed nothing.

[scarysnakelady]

Other than full responsibility for his death, apparently.

[golden_hawke]

I do not wish it. I never have!

[scarysnakelady]

Did I say that?

You forget, the rest of us were fighting as well, Hawke-san. Some of us with killing intent. Simply because you struck the killing blow does not mean you are the only one responsible.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

Against the plan, Anko?

So piss off enough people and they will act... unless they are from your world? How many people died due to Madara's actions? How many suffered? I am not debating whether or not he should have died. That is not in question. The reason you have given just now is.

[scarysnakelady]

From the start, he has challenged me. I simply took him up on that.

...And yet you don't think he should have been killed, do you? How interesting. My reasons for taking life or not doing so were established long ago, Carmen. They aren't interesting in the least, I have no qualms with them.

Madara, if I had a perfect world, would be dog meat. Take that one up with the people above me.

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

So the overarching reason behind it was to be ignored from the start. This was personal.

That is hardly what I said. I confirmed that whether or not he should die was not in question.

Hashirama? The newly returned Tsunade? Or do you wait for Minato to return once more? Which one of you has what it would take to act against one from your own world?

[scarysnakelady]

Partly. My reasons anyway.

Of course it isn't in question. Doesn't mean you agree with the rest of us, now does it? Nah, I don't think you do at all.

Ah, questions of authority. Fun stuff, that. I follow orders, Carmen, if there is someone I consider in authority above me to give them. Take it up with any of them you choose, if you want Madara dead that badly. Or go after him yourself, no skin off my nose.

Though apparently Saul is some skin off yours, break-up or no, hm?

[vile-queen.livejournal.com]

I will admit that I did not agree with the decision to break him. There is no use to someone who is broken, and no true satisfaction. Dead is a preferable alternative.

But I believe in holding to plans. When one or more departs from a plan on whim, they prove that they are not reliable. You would follow those who are Hokage, but not this Koumei, who created the plan. A very useful piece of information.

[scarysnakelady]

Mmm, of course. Well now, didn't know you cared so damn much about Koumei-san and his plans.

Against the plan? Hardly. He wanted him broken, utterly, and I was willing to use any force necessary and cause whatever harm necessary to achieve such an end. I wanted him dead. I did not kill him. Take from that what you wish.

Perhaps next time.
