[Jonah has already moved on, looking over the body and the mess. His voice is just... quiet. And a little cracked.]

Take the body to Jarod. He... he can dispose of it. I can deal with the CCTV.

[ God damn it, he greatly prefers the yelling. It's worse yelling at a Jon who just crumples instead. And if Algric can't be angry, then ...

Then he's going to be guilty instead. He looks down at Elias's body, letting the fog creep over it. ]


I - I don't know if Jared is a good idea. Tim, can you. Ah. Burn it?

[Something in his shoulders tense and he has to work his jaw a second to keep the words back.]

Whatever you like.

[Jonah looks down at his hands, then sets the letter opener carefully back on the desk before turning to leave without another word or look at them.]

[ Algric gives Jon a look at that. ]

He just means - look, the fire is new -

[ He exits after Jon. ]
eyediot: (s5; 'you'll fall and break your back')

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 01:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[That-

Startles him enough to stop. And stare.]

Rosie, why are you here? You should've left hours ago. Go-go home. Forget all of this.

[ Algric is there, but she can't see him, can she?

He holds his breath, letting Jon work. ]

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 02:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[For all his anger and hurt, he's genuinely concerned that Rosie was stuck here to... what? Witness? Hear the horrors? He wishes he could fix it.]

If anyone asks, you went home at end of business day. All right?
eyediot: proclaimers - "500 miles" (when I wake up)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
...They might. I'm not sure, honestly. But, it's - It's all right. You won't be involved in any of this. You can leave, if you want.

[What a reality that is. They can all leave now.]

eyediot: (I'll pass almost every penny on to you)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yes. Tomorrow. Get some rest.

[He'll watch her go, then start hurriedly making his way down to Archives to clean up.]

[ Algric hesitates there, wanting to help, but also Tim is still upstairs, and - ]

Jon?
eyediot: (looking down I could say heaven sent me)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[He got as far as rolling his sleeves up, then deciding to roll them down and rinse them out as well but stops. Eyes focused down.]

What?
curriculum_fictae: (static)

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-18 02:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you - if you need help -
eyediot: (if I could stop myself I would)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 02:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm fine.

[It's clipped, short. Trying to keep back the anger from upstairs since it's unwarranted. He gets his hands rinsed off, splashes his face and just... Sees himself. Sees the green hand-shaped splotches and catches his breath.]

Fairly certain I can handle washing my own face.

[Well. Maybe a little bite.]

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-18 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
That's not what I meant.

[ A misty shadow slips in behind him, murky in the reflection but still visible. ]
eyediot: (s5; and bring you back to me)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Then what did you mean?

[It's... This shirt is ruined. No salvaging it. He starts unbuttoning the dress shirt and shucks it to the corner, not really caring about the very physical, visible crack in his ice scar, or the new burn scars here and there. He's focused on not looking at Algric and finding those extra clothes his younger self stored away here.]

[ Oh -

Whatever Algric was going to say is swallowed up by the horror of that cracking going through Jonah’s shoulder. God, it’s even worse than he thought.

He reaches out a hand for it. Hesitates. ]

You’re hurt, Jon. God, your shoulder is…

eyediot: (and if I grow old well)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[He pulls away from the cold, shrinking a bit.] Don't.

[A breath. And then starts pulling the spare clothes on -a cheap shirt and a hoodie.]

Just tell me what you meant.
curriculum_fictae: (static)

[personal profile] curriculum_fictae 2021-07-18 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I ... I just want to help you. I want to do undo even a little of this.

[ His voice fades to a whisper as he lets his hand fall. ]
eyediot: (and to change what was real)

[personal profile] eyediot 2021-07-18 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Jonah doesn't answer for a long moment. Stuck staring down at his hands, remembering like a dream for a few minutes he didn't have fingers. They were gone, melted down to the bone and-

He presses his hands to his face, heels of his palms to his eyes and breathes.

A dream. That's all.]


We still have work to do. We should go see how Tim's doing and finish cleaning up.
