"Hey."

"Hey. - hug?"

Nodnod. Hug.

"Need to go back in a bit and bring him lunch. He's not being mean. Just - really depressed."

Permalink

"Is that better?"

Permalink

"Not for Osirion. M'working on it."

Permalink

"Why's he - depressed? I mean I guess he has a reason in general but why now?"

Permalink

"He's been depressed. I think it was just - the thing that happened a few days ago made him sadder than he was before. Sort of a - straw that broke the camel's back, thing."

Permalink

"The - thing where he yelled at you and kicked you out?"

Permalink

"Yeah.

"He - says that he didn't understand that I was in pain. Somehow. And just thought that I was being very demonstrative about not wanting him. And that he didn't want to be around me if I didn't want him and he figured I wouldn't want to be around him anyway."

"Abadar wouldn't have done it if it was the wrong thing to do, I'm sure, but it really seems like he's not very, uh."

Permalink

"He's really bad at - complicated people stuff. Even when he's normal. When he's good he does pretty well in his close relationships by just being, like, a compassionate person, but right now he's - not great at this to begin with, and really depressed, and evil. So. It's not a great combination."

Permalink

"I guess it probably makes stuff worse that the last pharaoh was using complicated people stuff for everything."

Permalink

"Probably. I think - a lot of things are broken now."

Permalink

"I should do something to - mentally relax, or something, before I go back in.

 

"I have no idea how to do this."

Permalink

"How to relax? Did the bath help?"

Permalink

"Yeah, the bath was really good for - I think I was, like, physically exhausted and kind of sick from crying, then, and it was good for that? But this is - ugh, I haven't had to deal with this since school - the thing where you've been thinking too hard about stuff and there are too many thoughts in your brain and you have to get some of them out - "

She paces. 

"I used to take walks. Are there - can we take walks?"

Permalink

"On this floor of the palace. It's probably not- impossible to arrange more than that but we'd need approval from the pharaoh."

Permalink

"Yeah, no. I - should figure out what else is around here but it's probably not properly restful anyway.

"Maybe I should free write or something. We don't have a meaningfully limited supply of paper, do we - "

Permalink

"There's plenty of paper. Uh, some people meditate? Probably not helpful right now but you could learn."

Permalink

"Yeah, maybe. I'm gonna - write things. Sorry for being - like this, it's just - a lot of stuff going on."

Permalink

"I think you're doing really well. Should I leave so you're not distracted?"

Permalink

"Um... maybe. Is there a place I can go to get you if I need you for something?"

Permalink

"Oh, my room's the one just across the hall, for right now."

Permalink

"Okay. Thank you. Probably won't need anything but if I do I'll drop in?"
