He began to curl up against the back wall. 

"I-it wasn- I- I didn't..." he stammered. "It was an accident, wasn't it?" he asked, tears filling his eyes. "I didn't want to kill her, right? I'm not a monster, am I?"

He grunted reluctantly. “S’pose. Don’t make a difference to me.”

Five clenched her jaw. “Don’t talk to him like that.” 

“I’ll talk however j want.”

He hesitated, turning redder the more he thought about it. 

D’you… d’you want me to? —Can I?

Heheh

She stepped back. 

“Just release him now,” she said. “And then we’ll leave, and everything will be fine.”

“Because it was all your fault.”

Sandlocke hesitated, spitting. "Fine." he said, finally. "Just... just leave!"

He cursed, slamming Savior Complex at him, throwing up black sparks.

Rebus held off the blow. Then he waved his off-hand, sending several spears of utility fog at Atredies from different directions. “You do know something doesn’t emit fiery darkness if it’s supposed to be good, correct? I’m unsure what you did to that Blade, but you’ve clearly messed it up.”

I—

Bat said he wanted Tam to be his problem. For unrelated reasons, Rebus convinced Tam to go cause problems.

"Silence!" he roared, slashing through the utility fog, which crumbled into ash. "My touch has done nothing to this Blade!"

“The drive to save everyone causes things to turn to ash and throw off black sparks? Somehow I doubt it.” Rebus took advantage of the distraction to make a lunging attack.

Atreides screamed, parrying the blow, knocking Magnificent Bastard aside and stabbing at Rebus' chest.

He has some related plans. (Sandlocke can get some character development and replace him, potentially). 
Rebus teleported out of the way, swinging at Atredies again. “You just lost, you know.”

They’re pretty thick, yeah. 

She kept knocking until one of the doors eased open to reveal an ashen-faced male intern. He squeaked. 

Cadewyn walked over to Maudie and the intern. "We need your help."
I think that was her name? I can't remember. Sorry.

She blinked. 

Wait, really?

”And bring back everyone you’ve killed, and promise to leave the villagers alone.”

Yeah.

He stared at her for a second, then squeaked. 

I, uh… okay. Okay, here goes. 

He leaned down a tiny bit, but turned really red, then pulled back and hid his face in his hands. 

You’re too scary.

It dropped again. They were not about twelve feet under. 

“Ow.” Gail frowned. “Is that a door?”

He turned even redder between his hands.

She just grinned and hugged him again.

No need to apologize. If you don't feel ready, we can wait.

"Are there others here?"
