[ oh thank god for small mercies.]

this place is the fucking worst.

[claritatis]

It certainly isn't showing its best side to us at the moment, but that doesn't answer my question.

[multivitamins]

everyone's alive so i guess we're well. though knowing my luck i'll probably have an asthma attack and die after anyway.

[claritatis]

You're going to be fine, Eddie.

[multivitamins]

no i don't think i am going to be okay in this place anymore, it's stupid here.

[claritatis]

Do you trust me?

[multivitamins]

[ Takes a moment to squint at that question.]

yeah. i shouldn't because you're from some weird place, but i still do.

[He switches to voice, because text will simply not have the same impact.]

I need you to trust me when I tell you that you will be alright.

[ Debates switching it over before doing so. For now Eddie keeps his tone more fed up that upset, not wanting to sound like...well, a small kid.]

Until when, though? This place isn't going to get better.

I have faith in you. When this is over, I'll teach you how to use a weapon. Until then, I need you to be brave, and keep your chin up as much as you can. Can you do that?

[multivitamins]

[ It is a little inspiring to hear those words from Ignis, not the fact that he'll maybe get some training, but that the other simply believes that what's going on will be over at some point.]

I... I can try. But. It'll be over soon, yeah?

[claritatis]

I sincerely hope so.

[He's not going to lie.

A loud noise of grinding metal, almost like a screech, rises suddenly in the background and Ignis makes a soft sound of annoyance.]

Sorry to cut this short, but a small problem's just come up.

[The problem was, in fact, not very 'small' at all.]

I'll call you back later, Eddie. Keep your head, don't lose hope.
