[while everyone's probably sick of the gardens at this point, belph finds himself wandering back to the castle grounds at some point.

which hopefully is where veronica is because idk how else we're going to continue this pc, kyuu.]

Worse than insulting her fashion sense?

[GOSH.]

... I. I'm pretty sure I'm going back home after this. Take a long nap, hug my parents... Give living a normal life another try.

[axilium]

... Sounds good. I think normalcy's pretty underrated.

[asswipe]

Yeah... No kidding. I'm ready to never have to worry about murder ever again.

[set her free.

anyway, there's a beat. and she gives him a wry smile.]

... I can't believe it, but I'm really going to miss your shitty sense of humor.

[axilium]

... Awww, how sweet. You're probably, like, the one person who'd say that?

[asswipe]

Yeah, because the other one is taking you home with her?

[she's joking.]

[axilium]

Do you have to put it like that?

[asswipe]

I'm just saying it how it is.

[axilium]

What am I, a pet she's adopted?

[asswipe]

Hey, you said it. Not me.

[axilium]

Well, I guess it's not too far off. I'm probably going to have to freeload off of her for a while, after all.

[asswipe]

Well... Look at it this way. She lets you live on her couch. You make sure she doesn't lose another leg by being herself.

[axilium]

Oh, that's true. You're good at this.

[asswipe]

Why, thank you. [MOCK CURTSIES.] I do essays and eulogies on commission, too.

[axilium]

Are they going to include winners like "corpse curse" too?
