[showbizpanache]

[It's short and simple.]

I know all of us here have lost at least one person on this ship. So let me ask you...

When did you start feeling like you're always the one left behind?

Already?

[showbizpanache]

Already.

I'd laugh at the irony if I felt at all like laughing.

[theyalldieforme]

Rachel, too?

[dirtyword]

Who'd you lose, Broadway?

[showbizpanache]

Same as last time.

[dirtyword]

Kurt... [ There are so many things he can say now--he's not sure Kurt wants to hear them, though. He takes a bit of a breathe. Awkward. ]

[vindicating]

You lost someone?

[showbizpanache]

Must be a Tuesday.

[vindicating]

[...okay taking that as a yes]

Sorry. It's typical of this place, but that doesn't make it any easier.

[lacksgrace]

You really wanna go home that bad, huh?

[showbizpanache]

[.....]

I didn't mean it like that.

[lacksgrace]

What did you mean then? [ There's a pretty long pause. ] Who left?

[unsoldiered]

... Always been that way, man.

[Oh, he's kind of distant. Very distant. Almost like he's responding aloud to himself, more than he's responding to Kurt. Maybe Alex is just tired; isn't gonna bother coming out of his room today either, not after the jump... and after everything else, for that matter. Yeah, he's just tired.]

I guess it's shitty to say 'you get used to it'. Because... I don't think you ever do.

I wish it was that easy.

[showbizpanache]

Alex.

[He doesn't like how he sounds.]

What happened?

[unsoldiered]

It's not about me--you're the one who lost someone.

[Things. Things happened. Have been happening, since forever.

It's nothing new, and he really should be completely used to it--and submissive to it... Why did he reply again? He couldn't remember. Ever since the masks, he's had harder and harder times keeping track.

... He wanted to make sure Kurt was okay... Of course, he's not. Neither is he.]

This ship takes too much from all of us. [ understatement but gods, he's awful at this. ]

Don't let it take away your hope, man. [ he's glad this isn't video because he doesn't know where to look as is, or what to continue with. it sucks, losing people and it sucks not knowing where they are or what they could be doing--what you'd be doing if they were still around. if they'll ever be around again. ] I'm sorry, though, about whoever it was.

[showbizpanache]

I'll try my best. Thank you, Percy.

[A soft sigh.] It's actually easier the second time around. [...] God, that's a horrible thing to say.

[audio]

[uncodlyawwesome]

From the fuckin' get-go.

[showbizpanache]

I'm so sorry. This place is just so terrible.

[logicunlocked]

You talking about losing people on the ship, or just losing people in general?

[showbizpanache]

On the ship, particularly, but I'd think it could apply in all manner of situations.

untraceable transmission.

I-I'm sorry?

[showmance]

We'll be okay.

[showbizpanache]

I lost him twice. Then Quinn, she-- Quinn was here too. Did I tell you that?
