[07] (AUDIO, English)

[phasebitchin]

[When the communicator clicks on, there is no crunching thump while she prances and kicks. No air guitaring, no singing when she thinks that no one is around to catch her being a doofus in private excitement. Hell no. This is deliberate. And Lilith is furious, beyond livid.]

So-

You can do whatever you want, is that right?

...

Lilith, are you alright?

[phasebitchin]

[Uh, sorry, Anna.

That gets a wordless shriek.]

[dormant_beast]

. . .

[Okay Lilith is definitely not alright. She's stuffing her comm in her pocket and taking off like a shot; she can hear that telltale crackling.]

[phasebitchin]

[Lilith can't stand inside the fire for much longer if she wants to get away without burns, but for now she's perfectly fine kicking at gas.]

FUCK. FUCK. FUCK.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Careful what you ask for. He may take you up on that.

[phasebitchin]

I will roast his dick.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Good for you.

Why now?

[phasebitchin]

Why?

[Lilith almost can't believe someone is asking her this, fogged as the logical side of her brain is.]

Aren't you sick of having it shoved in your face, over and over, that you are at some psycho's mercy!?

[axemeaquestion]

I know this isn't gonna sound all that helpful, but deep breath, baby. Humor me here.

[phasebitchin]

[Lilith almost screeches again, but manages a lower, if shaky tone.]

Deep breath of gas?

[axemeaquestion]

[Oh, oops.] ... Right.

Just... what happened?

[phasebitchin]

Goddamn Captain, looming over our heads. And we can't do shit.

[defiant_rage]

People disappear from this ship all the time. What is screaming going to do about it?

[phasebitchin]

[Lilith eloquently responds to this by, of course, screaming again. By this time it's degenerated to a frustrated squeal, the kind you let out after failing to tie your shoelaces correctly for the tenth time in a row.]

[defiant_rage]

[YAY! Ripa is so glad Sangheili ears are more sensitive than human ears right now. :| ]

Where are you, human?

[phasebitchin]

...... I spy, with my little eye, fire.

A lot of fucking fire.

[onlyajackass]

Sounds like you're havin' fun.

[onlyajackass]

You know you're gonna a heart attack if you keep that up.

[phasebitchin]

[Lilith cuts off the stream of obscenities, purring darkly.]

Come down here and I'll show you a heart attack, boy.
