POISON: ✩ZRAEL

[idolpro]

[ The room is plain, white walls and white ceiling, except for the steel-panel flooring. There are three metal stands rising out of openings in the floor, each of which carries a glass vial on top. One of them just holds water. Of the remaining two, one contains a dark red, opaque liquid with a creamy consistency; the next is a relaxing blue, with small brightly glittering star-like orbs drifting through it.

Both have fancy but identical cast iron stoppers moulded in the shape of a shark plugging them shut. The only difference is that the red vial's shark is painted white, and the blue vial's shark is painted black. ]

[ She never thought Lumine was wrong. And at least she saw the forest just fine that time! Or she'd be stomping off to the other side of the room in a huff. ]

I know I did. I'm trying to get better about this stuff, for whatever it's worth. I don't want to spend the little time I have left feeling like this.

Hey, it's going to be okay. Like you said--worst case scenario, we'll just get you revived after the game.

And for what it's worth--I don't want you to be miserable, either. So we can talk about whatever you'd prefer to. Or we can not talk at all if that's better. Up to you.

Re: DISCUSSION

Thanks. I do want to talk to you about all this. It's just that you're the first unit mate I've been sort of close to, I've had people say they're afraid of me after I tell them everything. No matter how fair that reaction is, it hurts.

But you deserve to know. It's not fair of me to hide it.

Re: DISCUSSION

Technically, it's your life story--you deserve to have the be-all-end-all say in who gets to know about it, teammate or friend or not. But if you trust me enough to tell me, then I consider it an honor.

[ When people are kind and understanding about this, it makes Aliza want to crawl into a hole and never come out. She doesn't deserve any of it. She can't help but wonder if Lumine is going to be one of those people who tries to talk her out of hating herself, which never goes well. ]

Later, then. Maybe once we get out of here.

[ Who knows. It could go a lot of different ways. ]

No problem. Let's just worry about getting out of this in one piece for now.
