[ Ren sighs, long and heavy. The weight of her failure still pulls heavily on her shoulders. But taking care of Jordana is more important than the rest of it. It isn't about saving everyone for her, but protecting what little she has to defend at the moment.
Her philodox has not been displaying good judgment at the moment, but Ren values their relationship enough not to say that. Tact is a learned skill rather than a natural behaviour for her. ]
[Jordana was an emotional mess as of late, and she knew it. It was the lack of her pack and the weight of knowing she was likely dead back home that had her out of sorts. Plus all the pretty women.]
I accept your apology. I don't want you to stay away from me. I missed you.
I need help figuring out if the Duchess will be able to control me in ways beyond what we all go through. Or if she made me like that asshole you chewed on. I feel wrong.
I... tried scrubbing my skin off a few times to see if there was anything hidden under it.
[ From anyone else that offer might seem facetious and yet, Ren means it. ]
He had like...plates under his skin, my teeth bounced straight off it. When you're feeling up to it, we can try get under your skin and I can take the injury away straight off.
Yeah, we can do that. It will definitely get deep enough.
[And the aggravated damage would be worth it.]
And neither of us are going to mention this plan to Vex. She's holding very tight to there being nothing wrong with me. I think she'd understand, but I don't need to cause her unnecessary worry.
I wish. [Jordana sighed.] Things with Dana are complicated. We've talked and managed to move past the Veil thing, and I'm still very much interested. There's still something there, something in still pursuing, but I also think she's kind of allergic to dating. She's also new to women so... we'll see.
Vex and I have been messing around for months and the whole dying thing made it clear we'd moved beyond a casual thing. So we're trying this dating thing. She's also dating Sweeney so we have an open relationship. Don't make a big deal about it.
I'll eat the face off of anyone that hurts either of them.
Doctors. They're like that. [ Asher, the partner that Ren did not talk about often, was similarly allergic to dating or confirmations of commitment. Something to do with their highly strung attitudes. ] I'm in no position to judge people on their dating choices, Jor.
[ She sighs. ] Can we try to keep the face eatin' to a minimum until we get our arses out of here, please?
I'm trying. I'm just so angry. Its been years side this kind of anger has sat so strongly in my chest.
I'm going to kill them all. Everyone that cut me up. Everyone that Vex is willing to point out to me as those that touched her. All of them, including that void-touched yeast infection. But I'll wait until we're no longer locked behind these walls. Vengeance has no time limit.
[ She would try to talk sense into Jordana, but what would be the point? She was fucking right. It was so weird that everyone was so accepting of it here. ]
We'll talk about this later.
[ Not because she didn't want to, but because Ren had heard the spider bitch listens to their mental chatter and she doesn't trust this conversation inside these walls. She can't let something happen to Jordana until they get out of here. ]
I'm on my way. Poison's wore off enough now that I can feel my feet again.

[ But yet again, not important. It just comes naturally to make everything a report. ]
What can I do to help?
