-101-

[It sounds as if she's just finished crying. There's a clink as she drops a spoon onto a dish and she finally speaks up.]

I said...I hope it goes down. [There's a nervous giggle.] But I don't know where down is. [Pause as the ship rumbles a bit. She takes in a trembling breath.] Looks like I was right, though.

Who knew that I would have them back? Who knew it would work like this?

I looked out my door today and saw the Darkness. I didn't know that Light Sorceress could curse people like this. Because that's what it is, you realize. It's not a flood. It's not...anything the Admiral has done. Condemn him if you like. It's more futile than usual.

[She turns on the camera. Those mentioned in the post who could see the curse will be able to see the vortex around her, invading her room. Barge magic, yeah]

I almost destroyed Moscow last time this happened. Last time, it was unintentional. Last time, they could talk me down from it and I could be saved from their...alternative method. [A bitter laugh.] Death.

They said once you pick a side that you can't change to the other one. Light to Darkness...all of that. I don't see why. It's so much easier to hate like this, isn't it? When you've been pushed so far, when so many people have kicked you in the face, it's easy to fall.

That's what power is, isn't it, O'Brien? [She reaches forward to turn off the transmission before she starts crying again. Then pauses.]

Someone might want to check on Petronilla. [BECAUSE SHE'S NOT. That's all!]

You don't have to believe it. But...look. You can see it.

I think you're losing faith. I think that shit's gone wrong and you're pissed and sick of it. I think you've been handed your ass one too many times lately...

And I think it's darkest just before the god damn dawn comes.

Maybe.

I don't think so, though, Parker.

Well, just cause you don't think so now doesn't make it not so.

Sunshine, you're one of the strongest people I know. You can get through this.

I'm not strong enough for this.

Please stop asking.
yourunichase: (always)

Oh fuck that. You're one of the strongest people I know, Sveta.

Would you be stopping if it was me or Copbot or someone else you care about?

Cop-oh. Neil.

Maybe. I don't know.

Bullshit, Sunshine. Bullshit.
