IC Burninating the countryside

*Close to the edge of the barrier, far from the center of camp, a cornfield has just caught fire. The cause? A certain mopey archangel of fire who is currently hanging out on a nearby tree branch.*

I made the same mistake twice.

[my_pleasure]

Humor me. Which one is that?

[dickpunchingarsonist]

...

[my_pleasure]

[ indignant grooming ]

Or not. If you're not interested in talking, just say so.

[dickpunchingarsonist]

...*frowns and looks down at, thinking*

Chizuru went home.

[my_pleasure]

Oh? That woman? That's too bad.

[dickpunchingarsonist]

It's more than just "too bad".

[my_pleasure]

Is it, now? I wouldn't know.

[dickpunchingarsonist]

It is. *Fingers digging into his arms a bit*

[my_pleasure]

[ . . . ]

You were really attached to her, weren't you?

[dickpunchingarsonist]

Mm.

[my_pleasure]

Is this where I say I'm sorry for your loss? That's the civil thing to do isn't it?

[dickpunchingarsonist]

Don't say it if you don't mean it. I don't care for empty formalities. I don't want pity or sympathy. I just wanted to burn something to the fucking ground and feel better.

[my_pleasure]

I didn't think so.

I wonder just how much good that's going to do you, though.

[dickpunchingarsonist]

What else am I supposed to do?

[my_pleasure]

Be happy for her, maybe?

[dickpunchingarsonist]

Easier said than done.

[my_pleasure]

Is that so? How disappointing.

[dickpunchingarsonist]

I'm allowed to be upset.

[my_pleasure]

Well of course you are. I didn't say differently, did I?

[dickpunchingarsonist]

Then what's this "disappointing" crap?

[my_pleasure]

It's just not what I would have expected of you. But far be it from me to impede your mourning, or whatever it is you're doing.

[dickpunchingarsonist]

*Leaps out of the tree, irritated*

[my_pleasure]

[ keeps his seat, thanks. ]

[dickpunchingarsonist]

I am glad she's out of this shit hole, it just took me by surprise, okay? I don't get attached easily, so it hurts.
