( 08 ) voice ✵ tell me what is it i should do when i'm swimming in the liquor only half way through

[ faith has exactly one concern in all this bullshit: empathy is not so much her gig. ]

So, seems like everybody's all about sharing and caring. And that's cool, whatever gets you off. Play Missed Connections on the Love Boat from hell all night long— have a blast, I don't give a shit.

But just in case anybody else gets any bright ideas about 'maybe we should talk about it'— [ gdi topher— ] maybe nothing, get me? You think you picked my brain, sucks to be you but don't blame me, I didn't sign up for this crap and I don't wanna know about it. I got zero desire to talk about whatever anybody thinks they saw, end of story.

[ because not-terribly-blissful ignorance is better than pity!!! or something. she's emotionally healthy. ]

And just so everybody clear, I'm talking the kind of leave me out of it I'll throw some muscle behind backing up. Keep it zipped and to yourself or I'll break it off, it's nothing I wanna look at.

[ and with the snick of a lighter and a mumbled curse then a long inhale, she's out. ]

[ someone's got something to hide, and jo's just a little amused. sorry faith. ]

Not a sharing is caring follower?

[stacked]

More like a big believer in everybody minding their own goddamn business.

[ she has literally all the things to hide correct jo. ]

[Thank god someone on this ship has the right idea.] Most sensible thing I've heard all damn month.

voice;

[stacked]

Never really been called sensible before, but what the hell. I'll take it.

[ bitter shut-ins unite! via computer and not ever talking about feelings. ]

[tinytactician]

That doesn't seem like a very...effective way to resolve this situation.

[stacked]

Yeah, well. Not really looking to be a big help, looking to keep nosy bi— [ right, kids. ] people outta my face.

video; locked

[slipperysoul]

[ not to be a dick, but. ] You're really obvious sometimes, you know that?

Or maybe that's just me.

video; locked

[stacked]

Subtle wasn't really the goal there, big guy.

[ faith's not touching the implications there because no talking about feelings

god angel get with it. ]

[Taylor looks a lot like she immediately regrets going for video for a long moment after she clicks the feed on. But she also looks like hell warmed over, so she's lost a lot of the energy she'd usually use towards giving a fuck. Eventually, after that bit of silence, she takes a breath, looks off camera.]

That's not gonna help.

[ faith would stubbornly stick to voice for most of the ship. but: tyke.

when she responds, she looks about as awesome. ]

Looking to ignore it 'till it goes away mostly, boss. Leave the help to the brains.

[majestyofthethrone]

We don't have to talk about it. About what you did last month. I don't even think a thank you is-

Just know that I know.

Encrypted;

[stacked]

you got the wrong girl. no idea what you're talking about.

[ she's pretty sure she does, but details. ]

voice;

[unforgives]

I couldn't agree with that more. [because really it's kind of ridiculous how many people want to talk about it so while she does recognize the voice, emily does nothing to even acknowledge it] Talking things out doesn't always help even in situations like this.

voice;

[stacked]

[ emily's voice niggles at faith's memory, but if she puts two and two together like hell is she going to admit it. ]

Never been a big fan of talking things out. 'Sides, not like there's shit to fix, here. We all got our turn playing peeping tom, people can do whatever but I don't wanna know.

voice;

[sweetbreads]

You use your strength to conceal your hurt, when bringing pain to others has only ever brought you greater trouble further down the road.

Do you truly believe that denial is the road to self improvement?

voice; i hate you for this so much the hate transmuted into love oh my GOD i'm just. reg you're bad.

[stacked]

Yeah, sorry. I didn't sign up for the head shrink-o-gram, we're all full up here. Try next door.

[ so that's the worst possible and most accurate response ever a+ hannibal. ]

[A minute click and the sound of sliding fabric start the message. When he does talk there's the smallest amount of satisfaction in his voice] A wise course, though you may find it a difficult one. Many aboard this ship insist on talking about it. They are foolish.

[There's a pause as if the message has ended]

I hope your threats are not idle. Your demand may not be met.

voice

[stacked]

Yeah, well. They like their feelings hour around here, I guess. More power to 'em, just leave me out of it.

[ she laughs, low and not entirely humorous. ]

No worries, babe. Never had a problem backing my shit up with a little action.

( voice. )

[overthought]

It wouldn't be such a bad thing not to broadcast if you're so "compromised".

( voice. )

[stacked]

Just making things clear public-like. And I never said compromised.

[tumbleweeds]

[ okay but- ]

Do we still get to hold hands?

video;

[stacked]

...dude. Seriously?

[ she hasn't heard about the cure just yet. ]

voice;

[kutte]

That a promise?

[ oh faith, he knows you. he doesn't want to, but he does. ]

voice;

[stacked]

Was going more for a threat, but sure. You wanna call it that, babe, go for it.

[ NOPE JAX SHE HAS NO IDEA WHO YOU ARE

NONE. ]

voice » way later sup

[starked]

You seemed like such an open book, too.

[ sarcasm, thy name is tony stark. tony stark who, out of all of his links, might actually decide this is the most fucked up one.

and that is saying something. ]

voice » yo stark how u livin ps get out of her head

[stacked]

You think too much, dude. Seriously, how the hell do you get shit done?

[ guess who's sharing your buzz tony

and hasn't actually been trashed in a long-ass time this is kinda cool. ]

What are the odds I could get you to go grab another bottle?

[Someone's looking a little worse for the wear, rubbing the back of her hand under her nose as it drips dark red; Lisbeth chews the filter of her cigarette before taking a drag, exhaling shakily.]

I don't give a shit if we talk, but I'm over these fucking headaches.

Where should I meet you?

...your place might be a better call.

[ faith's is a: a godawful mess and b: occasionally roommate-having.

then, abruptly. ]

Look, don't get all weird about this. But you're running low on those, right? [ she nods at the cigarette. ] Buddy of mine brought me some shit from that ship they raided. Could toss a pack your way.

[northerner]

We need to speak, Faith.

[ robb has had it up to here with this shit faith!! ]

[stacked]

Really don't, actually. You're not the king of me, dude.

[ so there!!!!! ]
