Yes. You appear to know how to tend to the wounds, I'm relieved.

...You comported yourself well.

[greatvalue]

... It's nothing I'm not used to. [a beat.] Well, almost getting killed by my shadow was new, actually.

[outsidebones]

Yes, that aspect of it was rather peculiar, wasn't it?

[peculiar is...a word for it.]

[greatvalue]

"Peculiar," sure. It... must've picked up on stuff that happened to us. The bad stuff. Obviously.

[outsidebones]

[her lips thin slightly.]

That is...what I thought might have been happening. Something upsetting to you, or perhaps something related to the reason those demons told you you were brought here.

[greatvalue]

... Yeah. Something like that.

[He pulls his knees up to his chest, frowning.]

It happened. And it will probably happen again. So when it does, whoever ends up in my place will need to be prepared to deal with it.

[outsidebones]

My thoughts precisely.

[if hunter doesn't want to dwell, she isn't the sort of person who would push him to.]

[greatvalue]

[sometimes you just gotta scoot past the trauma.]

Think the personal demons will have anything useful to say if asked about it?

[outsidebones]

Hmm. It sounds as though perhaps they were compelled to force this execution to happen...?

[greatvalue]

... Cool. Ordered by the boss kind of compelled? Or... the, somehow, even worse kind?

[outsidebones]

I'm not sure. Ordered by someone, but whether it was the boss, I am not certain.
