WHATEVER IT IS, it's time for josh and fie to have a ... pleasant... um ok it'll at least be private, conversation!!!!!]

Can't a girl just know some?

[ geez Joshua??? ]

[vipmix]

[absolutely not, denied--]

Whichever it is, it sounds like with that philosophy you're set for the game. I'm almost jealous.

[he says like he has ever had a single human emotion about people]

[sylfied]

[ RAISED BY JAEGERS FOR TEN YEARS MOFO SUCK IT-- ]

Yeah? What are your thoughts, then?

[ does Josh even have human emotion about anything ]

[vipmix]

About what?

[feigns like he doesn't know look they talked about a few subjects!!]

[sylfied]

About people's reactions.

[ Not that she thinks he has friends here because she's starting to think it takes a certain type to even talk to him without wanting to kick him. ]

[vipmix]

Predictable.

[reflexive and derogatory at once; fie is right on the money about this.]

It's death. Their reactions are to be expected. No one takes well to facing anyone's mortality, especially not with that added brutality in the mix.

[sylfied]

You've been pretty calm about it this whole time, though.

[ Fie, you can't talk. ]

[vipmix]

Coming from you? I'll take it as a compliment.

[isnt... answering the question]

[sylfied]

You're welcome. [ NOT MISSING A BEAT. ]

So you're not counting yourself in that group?

[vipmix]

Oh, I'd never consider myself predictable.

[why is he this way]

[sylfied]

Funny, I thought you'd say that.

[ why is she this way ]

[vipmix]

Hee hee... Well, now. That sounds like a problem for me.

[he could try to sound bothered about it. does he? no]

[sylfied]

Well, it's not my business whether you care or not. People deal with death differently, even if you're saying the majority's predictable.

[ which... honestly isn't wrong, most people will get upset over death, and even Fie can feel grief when she's invested. But then again, she thinks, there are men like some Jaeger leaders who run right into their own. ]

[vipmix]

It's easier to get desensitized when you're expecting it. [and they'd had all week to expect it, too] It almost makes me wonder how everyone's reaction will change in the coming weeks.

[sylfied]

You mean whether they'll get used to it and save their energy? Or just kind of lose their optimism?

[vipmix]

A little of both. It all depends on what happens tomorrow.

[sylfied]

Well, we won't know until then. I guess we'll see.
