[Painwheel's just full of surprises.]

Sure, whatever you say.

So, you liking it here so far?

[aceordisgraced]

Liking it? Hmm, that's a good question.

On one hand, we're in a war and I've got some kid friends I know from home I'd rather have at home. On the other hand, I get to meet people from a whole lot of different places, like you. It's good-bad I guess.

[painfeels]

[Like her. Oh...]

You like it better than me. I want to be back home, with my mom and dad.

And I want to find those people, the ones that did this to me. I WANT TO MAKE THEM PAY!

[aceordisgraced]

[Holy shit what?! Phoenix is sad for a moment at her wanting to go home, but he's surprised by her following outburst and jumps when she yells, holding up his hands.]

Painwheel?

[painfeels]

[Whoops. That just happened, didn't it.]

Sorry.

[Okay, must calm self down.]

I get angry, talking about those people...

[aceordisgraced]

[He lowers his hands quietly.]

It's okay. Are you okay?

[painfeels]

I'll be fine.

[a deep breath.]

Yeah, don't worry about me.

[aceordisgraced]

... You sure? [He smiles at her. He's obviously worried, but he's already backing down. He hardly knows her enough to step into those boundaries without her permission.]

[painfeels]

It'll be alright.

.... There's not much I can really do it about it.

[aceordisgraced]

Hmmmm.

[He taps his chin thoughtfully.]

Well, I don't think I can do much about... that, right now, either. But if you ever need a hand with anything you can hit me up. Do you want to get something to eat?

[painfeels]

Yeah, thanks. I'll remember that.

[oh hey, a convenient subject change! let's go for it.]

Now that you mention it, I wouldn't mind some food.

[aceordisgraced]

That's the spirit! When you come to a party, you have to eat whatever good food they have to offer!

Let's go!
