[It sounds as if she's just finished crying. There's a clink as she drops a spoon onto a dish and she finally speaks up.]

I said...I hope it goes down. [There's a nervous giggle.] But I don't know where down is. [Pause as the ship rumbles a bit. She takes in a trembling breath.] Looks like I was right, though

Oh, Sveta, no....

We let you fall. We were supposed to catch you, but we failed, and now you've --

Please, Sveta, do not hate.

Private

[greatlightother]

I don't. Not everyone.

This isn't about you.

Private

[naughtbutlife]

It matters not, Sveta. You should not ever be made to feel as though you've fallen.

What happens if the curse is allowed to continue? Does it worsen?

Private

[greatlightother]

I don't know.

Probably.

[scarlet_discord]

What did you do...? Why the hell did you do this to us? I never did a thing to you...most of us didn't...oh gods, you horrible bitch, you're going to kill us all out of spite!

Where is your Warden? Why are you being allowed to do this?

[staticstatic]

What's happening?

[huge burst of static]

Oh no--

[greatlightother]

[Sniffle.]

I am a warden!

And you did it. You all did it. [She's a smidge bit hysterical at the moment, so she's ignoring the static.]

[scarlet_discord]

YOU are a Warden? Who the hell put a psycho like you in charge of other people? We've never even met and you plan to murder me!

[static]

You're a monster! You should have your powers stripped and be put under somebody just like me. You're a danger to everyone and you need to get sentenced!

[STATIC]

Oh God. This bitch is a Warden. And she's going to kill us all.

[throaty sobbing]

I hope they do kill you!

[greatlightother]

[Sveta just cuts off the feed.]

[restoringhonor]

It might be easier to hate like this, but that doesn't mean it's your only option.

voice

[greatlightother]

No. I've seen the other options, though.

And they're not better. Light is no better than Darkness.

voice

[restoringhonor]

So, you'd rather hurt people who have done nothing to you?

voice

[greatlightother]

Are you hurt?

[stopthat_destro]

And to think, everybody dismissed it when I called you out for the fake you really are. You're no better than me.

[greatlightother]

Revenge sucks, doesn't it, Rex?

But this isn't about you.

And I'm not fake. [Except that she totally is.]

[stopthat_destro]

I know more about revenge than you ever could.

[He laughs.] Oh no, not at all. Those smiles, the polite face you put on in public while mocking me in private? Those aren't indicators or a fake? Now everybody can see what I've seen all along.

[greatlightother]

You are so arrogant.

I've done nothing but help you for the past few months. And I've done it for genuine reasons. Or have you conveniently forgotten that much?

This is not about you. Stop trying.

What is that...?

Do you see it.

I am in no mood for games... What have you done?

[greatlightother]

It's a curse. As I said.
