[ he is sitting! he actually now cannot stand again. unfortunate. however, he is sitting in the medbay so at least there's that?

but hello miss roxana. a lot of revelations is a good way to describe it. ]

Yeah. You can say that again. [ he frowns - brow knitted, mouth pulled downwards. ] To be honest, this is what I was expecting.

What's worse? Having no idea what's up, or feeling like you know something's coming and not being able to stop it even looking at it head on?

[ What a good resting Vax. Roxana is here to grab some painkillers. Every trial is going to make her head ache, she can tell now.

She's seated on one of the empty beds. ]

The latter. I'd prefer coming out with multiple solutions I don't need than feeling powerless and helpless. After what you experienced in the tunnel last week, it wasn't a shock, but it doesn't make it any less sickening.

[ he is being a good boy for once in his life! and roxana is totally valid. ]

Mm. [ the noise is quietly agreeing. ]

...The two of them - I know they're not, but just talking to them - they're just kids. [ especially ryunosuke, who just seemed so wide eyed. a kid, a fucking lawyer, not a combatant. to be chased down by his best friend like that... ] ...'ve got too many fucking kids here for this to be happening.

You want to take care of them all.

[ She saw how he tried to protect Meteion, whose high empathy she worries about as well. If things only continue to escalate, she worries what that'll do and how she'll change. ]

I wish there were a way to turn the Prism upside down all at once. I don't mind playing long games, but I don't think we can afford that here.

[ it's a little bit embarrassing to be called out like that so immediately, but it's not like he's ashamed of it. vax has always had a soft spot for kids - it's the older brother in him - so he just nods a little, ducking his head. ]

I've got the ability to, sometimes. Usually. [ he gestures at himself a little bit with some humor, because he's not doing much right now. ] ... but I'm with you. Rather just find whatever's at the root of it and chase it out. Can't say I'm much of a detective.

[disingenuous]

If only we could get you that ability back, hm? I know you did you best with what you had available.

[ No one would go out their way to get that injured when they still have people they want to protect. ]

I wouldn't call myself a detective either. I can put puzzle pieces together, but I need the puzzle pieces first.
