' Hey, ' I say, looking up at her and leaning forward. I can smell her tears from here. ' I can find him. It isn't hard, really. What did you want to say?' I acutally sound concerned now. My voice is softer and much more gentle than I know she's ever heard it. I even offer up a faint smile as I say the words.

She turns back, watching him with huge dark eyes. Hurt eyes. "Tell him his child is dead," she says, and then turns away again, walking to the door and out.

I stop as though I've been slapped. I hadn't even known she was pregnant. I stare at the door, still paralyzed, until my wits return. I stand and walk out the door, my eyes extremely worried now. ' Wh.... What? ' I ask, my voice confounded. It's the only words I can think of to say. Wonderful choice, I know.

She does not turn around. "You heard what I said," she says, flatly, evenly, emotionlessly. "I would prefer not to repeat it. Pass on the message, please." She pauses for a moment. "Besides," she adds, with a somewhat bitter laugh, "Why would you care anyways? Not like you ever gave a thought to anyone else's wellbeing."

'Anyone else's...' I stop, my words die in my mouth. I stare at her with a fierce sincerity that I don't even know I'm capable of.
'Why do I care? It is something that I have asked myself many times. But, whether you like it-or believe it- or not, I do. I have given many more than one thought to your and Adeni's wellbeing, believe me, '
My tone is bemused at first, but vaguely so. Then, it matches hers-if not lower because of my voice-the same emotionlessness as hers.
ooc; i think we should move this to another thread. you know, so we don't like.... take over. *evil cackle*

(( *curses* *hits self in face* yeah, we might want to do that. Unless I find a way to get Finn to provoke him into a fight, in which case we'll be back on solid ground. *smacks kaze* why does this have to be the one time he's in a charitable mood, whyyyyyy??!?!!? ))
