Am I Part of the Cure
Characters: Valdis and some open
Date: All of July
Location: Throughout Keeliai
Situation: Various
Warnings/Rating: In headers
May had been a complete and utter mess. Between the anonymous accusations, the failings of her plan regarding them, her own foolishness and the cultist attack, Valdis couldn’t seem to pull the pieces back together. It was extraordinarily grating to feel so out of control. She still didn’t have her position back at the KPD, so she filled her time teaching at the Dojo, reading and rereading books and wandering the streets at night. Sleeping was difficult, not for nightmares, but she felt too restless. There was too much to do in the aftermath of the Cultist attacks, and she had no idea where to start. Useless, was the word. June hadn’t been much better, but at least there had been a sense of calm and healing, no matter how false the calm seemed.

This will sound cruel, but perhaps that was for the best. Playing God isn't generally recommended, especially for those who think they can.
[Though she wondered if the guy who pushed the button was the same one who hadn't when he had had the chance before.]
What made the man change his mind? or was if someone else?
[She noticed the raised eyebrow, but she would ignore it...for now.]

[But then everyone died, eventually, didn't they? Just not quite like that.
Jack had been wondering if she would guess it was the same man, and even if she didn't seem one hundred percent certain it made him smirk.]
I didn't ask. My guess? He felt responsible, or maybe they were already set to lose. The damage being done was exponential. Maybe he just wanted it all to stop.
But, right. [His smile is sudden and disarming. This was an interview wasn't it? Or did I already pass with flying colors? [His tone there is obviously joking.] I'm up for forgetting about that and swapping legends and whatever else you'd like, instead.
no subject
[It was their time, in other words. Nothing was eternal, not even her immortality.]
He was responsible, he didn't do as ordered until it was too late.
[Valdis smirked in reply to his smile. He seemed to now want a legend from her world. She supposed she could tell him one.]
There is a legend in my world, but you will never hear the humans speak of it. It exists only in the tales of the Angels and Demons.
