WELCOME TO YOUR PRIVATE CHANNEL, CCC-REDHORSE. FOR SECURE COMMUNICATION, USE 134.64.202.69 * CCC-REDHORSE has joined 134.64.202.69 <CCC-REDHORSE> This is Reira Akaba! <CCC-REDHORSE>**I'll try to answer you but sometimes I'm busy or sleeping, so I don't think about the message right away.

[Definitely different? Sure.]

Okay!

I'll send you pictures of monsters with black hats! Since I guess you're looking for a monster???

And I'll tell you if they seem really dangerous

because sometimes people here don't even wait until they're being attacked they just do it anyway and it's not very fun

[Oddly, she's being entirely Honest. Well, of course she is, she prefers to be. But she really does intend to take pictures of monsters with black hats...which will probably still be One, captioned VERYDANGEROUSMAYBEDON'TAPPROACH.]

I would be very surprised if it weren't a monster.

Thank you. I appreciate your concern, but it's unwarranted. I'll be careful.

Okay....

[This is going to be...Fun,]

Hello Reira.

It's been a while.

[What's a terrifying message to receive when you thought you blocked someone?? That.

It's genuinely so alarming that Reira doesn't actually assume that she somehow UnBlocked someone, and instead that somehow, someway, Aunamee has just...Wormed through it!

Scary.

Ultimately, while it takes a while to answer, it's a bit too much to simply ignore.]

Yeah.

[YEP. SURE...SURE HAS BEEN A WHILE what do you want from her sir]

Oh Reira. Surely you can manage more of a greeting than that.

"Hello Aunamee. Are you well?"

You're typing. That probably means you're 'well'.

It's been a while too so you should be by now. [AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

It's been "a while" since what, Reira?

I want to hear you describe it.

[She will bite this bait for exactly as long as it takes to find out that it took a full month to die, oh boy.]

Since you starved.

It was supposed to be feeding day, so.

What was supposed to be "feeding day?" The day you took my heart and condemned me to a long, torturous death?

I had intended to feed. Yes. But alas, that poor man died for nothing.

[No! You can't guilt her with (one) guy!!]

It was your feeding day. So, the closest day to dying if you didn't. If it wasn't feeding day, it would have taken longer.

I'm curious, Reira. How long do you think it took? How long were you planning to make me suffer?

It should have been as long as it hurt. You could just go back to being mean by the weekend, and it wouldn't matter how mean you were to me ever again.

[So There. You can take her dull pride from her cold dead hands.]

Give me a number, Reira. How many days did you think it would take? How long does it take a monster to whittle away into nothing?

[Reira never had a specific number. She figured a few days or so, and that would be it.

But more than that, when she sees Aunamee's response she feels like he doesn't actually want to know the answer.

Otherwise he'd probably have used the number of days between when he died, and the weekend. That's her thinking at least.] No.

[Not that she has a number, but also No] You're an adult.

Adults can do math.

It took nearly a month. A full month of torment.

And you let it happen.

[....Impossible.]

You're lying.

[It has to be impossible. He was hungry. He didn't feed. Couldn't, even. So it should have been fast. A few days. It had to.

So...He has to be lying, right? It wouldn't be the first time after all. It...]

If you don't eat after a month you die, that's how it happens!

[That's just how she heard it. Learned it. It makes the most sense. How can starving take so long, it can't!

...Right?]

Do I strike you as someone who waits until the last minute, Reira? Do you think I take exactly my fill once a month, no more, and then wait until I'm days from death to feed again?

I had enough energy to last two weeks. Longer if I let my abilities dim with disuse. Which I did.

[She nearly shouts YES. Nearly. They looked for patterns. They made sure. They...

She can't say that. If she does he'll know how they got to him. Instead she takes a deep and shuddering breath to carefully answer.] ....That isn't how it should have happened.

...I'm not sorry for you though. I wish it was shorter, like it should have been...but I'm not sorry.

It was supposed to be Once, and Never Again, and it still is.

Monster.

You're a monster.

So are you.

[The word loses its effect when she's used to using it to refer to a People rather than a horrible thing.]

No, Reira. I'm not talking about Her marvelous creations. You're a vicious, grotesque abomination in the shape of a child. You are an abomination.

How long did it take you to die after I shot you? Thirty seconds? A minute? And you respond by slowly torturing me to the death for three weeks.

And you're not even sorry.

My pain was longer than being dead. It was after. And then on top of that, you kept talking and talking as though everything you did was for the best.

And even as if you would have tried something else, other than killing me. Amanda knew she wanted to do it. She said so too. You're the one who wouldn't.

It wasn't supposed to be three weeks, but it's done. I won't hurt you ever again, unless you hurt me, or my friends first.

So I could Never be sorry, not for you.

Do you remember what I told you, Reira? Before you condemned me to a slow demise?

We're not even.

I will make my correction in due time.

Edited 2019-10-04 21:53 (UTC)

If you try, and I bleed, you deserve what comes next.

Next time I will make it quick though. Three weeks was longer than it was supposed to be after all.

But I learned from last time too. Don't think you can play pretend this time.
