Adilie yawned, it was obvious she had not slept well the previous night "Yes, it was" Quote "Good morning, Drae! Sleep well? Why are you in Ladashwy's room?" "I'm... not sure you want to know the answer to that..." she frowned "Wait. Ladashwy wasn't here last night, what were you doing there?"

Quote I'm... not quite sure how to respond to this... Ladashwy sighed. She had finished taking notes, and she was debating on weather or not she should use her tin. She wanted to know what was happening, but didn't want to overstep boundaries. Hm... What do I do? Eh. No one will be too mad, right? I really need to do something... No. It is none of my business. I can ask about it later. She got up, and started looking for something to do.

Nor to Marie. She does not agree with you, I think. I have given her chances to take her own life, should she wish to, and she has not. As for your proposal... he sighed. I will consider it. There are many factors to consider, as you well know. His words were quiet. And I let her run as free as she can. I leave her herself. But I will not let Ruin overwhelm Scadrial. Marie, return to the others, Harmony commanded. If he and the Survivor kept talking, she probably wouldn't be included in the conversation. Her fingernails bit into her palm as she clenched them into fists, but there was no punching a god, and she went. Quote Not unless you're Kelsier, anyway

Well, I guess there wouldn't have been much to listen to anyway.

Between the chase, interrogation, massacre, and godly debates, morning showed up. Kelsier followed Marie. “So that wasn’t you stopping her yesterday,” he said dryly. “My mistake. It looked a lot like something was stopping her from considering slicing open her own throat.” He shook his head slightly. “If you’re going to lie Saze, you should ones that are believable. “You say you allow her as much freedom as you can, but you don’t even allow her the freedom of her own mind. You block off certain paths; certain patterns because you ‘do not wish to encourage her to harm herself or others.’ That isn’t your right!” For the first time, genuine anger slipped into his voice. “You keep trying to make her perceive the world as beautiful, as something to embrace and Preserve. That’s no different than Ruin forcing Marsh to see its destruction as beautiful! I couldn’t help him, for all that I held Preservation itself. Giving him even a second’s freedom damn near killed me a second time. “But I can help her. And you can’t stop me, not unless you’re willing to finish what Rashek started. “I’m not suggesting letting her Ruin the world,” he continued, calming slightly. “I’m suggesting an alternative option. You’ve tried this for three hundred years and it isn’t working. I’m asking for a year to try something new. You know I’m going to do it anyway, unless she says otherwise. “So why not put the choice to her? She’s the one whose opinion matters. Let her be the one to decide. Not us.” He smiled at the Inquisitor. “What do you want, Marie?” Quote Kelsier has no intention of allowing Saze to remove Marie from the conversation. Also, Kell is referencing your first post, where Saze stopped Marie from considering self-harm. He is actually angry about this, btw. It reminds him too much of being helpless to help Marsh. 59 minutes ago, mathiau said: Eryn shrugged. “Still alive, ja?” @Lecky Twig Eryn glanced curiously past Drae. “Sage not here?” Quote The difference between playing a character who LOVES to talk versus one who doesn’t.

Why do I want to be involved? She sighed, and then after more consideration, she started burning her tin. I sure hope I don't regret this. But I need to know what is going on.

Twice seemed to cultivate a constant air of swiftness, probably both because it told to everyone he was a steelrunner and because he thought it made him look cool, and to be fair some people would indeed be impress by his overwhelming flow of speech "Oh, I'm pretty weird too." She marked a small pause "And my name's Adilie. I assume you're a steel compounder? A maybe even Feruchemical savant?"

Quote Well rusts, because I was also trying to remove her from the conversation character development kickstarted earlier than I thought, then! My own views on mental health and free will vs safety/happiness are probably slipping in here; I think I'm still in line with what we know of Harmony but if we've got any evidence to the contrary, let me know. I know very well that I have no right, Harmony said only to Kelsier, tired. But I am trying to help her, all the same. Having the desire to slit your own throat does not, fortunately, go hand-in-hand with imagining it. You...are correct that with so many years of no change in her condition, I should have tried different things; I think that sometimes it is hard for me to remember that... To Marie he only said, You are aware of my opinion by now. I will not interfere in your choice. Marie stared at the Survivor, the man with just one spike in his eye and a god thrice over. He had been listening in on her thoughts too, apparently. She found it difficult to care much anymore; so many people had been in her head at this point that she was desensitized to the feeling of privacy breached. "A year," she mused. "On another planet?"
