(defunct_ Inbox for Stella Fortunata

Private convos or messages! These messages may or may not be delivered by raven. Julian's nice like that.

Sounds like. Anything else?

[ Crow holds up a finger. ]

Just one other thing! It's probably worth mentioning that neither Rean or Elliot were involved in my... extracurricular activities. They really are as nice as they seem.

Did they know about them?

Not until it was too late to stop me.

And they didn't care? [A beat] You can tell me to shut up if that's none of my business. I'm nosy.

You haven't hit anything I don't wanna answer yet.

[ He does stop to consider how to answer that, though. ]

I wouldn't say they didn't care. But those guys... their whole group, Class VII... they're all hopeless idealists.

[ There's a fond note creeping into his voice.]

They thought we could still be friends despite everything. Chased me down across a country and through a civil war.

[What.]

Despite knowing you were a terrorist?

[ He snorts at that. ]

I told you, didn't I? They're hopeless.

Oh my God, how did they survive childhood?

[Y'ALL TRUST A BIT TOO EASILY]

[ THEY SURE DO! ]

Don't ask me. If they had the sense the Goddess gave a rock, they would've known when to give up.

Elliot's the most sensible person in this group! Except apparently not when it comes to friends? Is that what I'm getting here?

Yeah, you've got it in one.

[August just groans, head in his hands.]

God. Did not think people like that actually existed. Do I wanna know how bad Rean is?

Words cannot describe how completely and utterly hopeless Rean is. The only person he refuses to believe in is himself. Pretty ironic when he's the strongest person I know. And I don't just mean physically.

Oh, I believe it. Still can't believe how easy it was to get him to carry my shit.

[Poor Rean.]

Have you tried spritzing him with a spray bottle when he starts doing that?
