crazed and calm with a sinners psalm

[goryteller]

WHO: Katurian and Ruka / Katurian and Cassie
WHERE: Ruka's place / Cassie's place
WHEN: Late at night, March 15th for Ruka. March 16th for Cassie.
WARNINGS: Discussion of murder, possible threats.
SUMMARY: There are two children that have the potential to ruin Katurian's life.
FORMAT: Quicklog.

[For Ruka, Katurian's visit is heralded by a small, plush lion dropping smoothly, soundlessly on the ground in front of her. The toy is clean. Unsullied.

For Cassie, Katurian appears in front of her bed late, late, late at night with bloodshot eyes and a twitch to his fingers. He doesn't wear his costume, but his body doesn't make any sound in the air, either, as though he is merely a piece of empty space, as though he doesn't belong.

He is Traveling today.]

[The words catch him off the guard. His hand tenses in her's.]

Now isn't the time. Ruka.

[She looks up, staring steadily towards his pillow face, where she assumes his eyes would be hidden.]

You can't expect me to keep a promise like that, if I don't know who it is I'm not supposed to help.

[goryteller]

Isn't it enough to know that I'm doing the right thing? That I'm helping people?

[dragony]

... What are you frightened of?

[goryteller]

[He swallows hard.]

I could be killed. If my identity is revealed. I could be killed or locked up for a very long time.

[dragony]

[She squeezes his hand. She's being the steady one here.]

And you think someone would... think I would know? You know I wouldn't tell anyone. You're my friend.
