There is a click, a soft urging, almost whispered too soft to hear, but you can sense that you are being beckoned somewhere, lead to an elaborate open door with wood panels and great curls of gold leaf. You cannot see what is beyond the door, but it smells sour and sharp. Before you can turn over the thought of should you or shouldn't you, if you are the kind, there is a quiet push at your back and through the door you go . . .

"You're very welcome."

It starts off with caution, but there is definitely a blooming affection and love after awhile, though. The hand is very young and childish, too.

[sightunseen]

[oh dear. skips towards the end...]

[dramatispersonae]

There is a lot of confusion and loose threads. What was Jack's goal? Did he truly care for Vincent at all? Will he be able to face Jack as an enemy? But there are also small notes of change from having allowing someone else to cut his hair to not wearing jewelery like Jack . . . Still, there is overwhelming love and endearment. Jack is still very much beloved.

[writes "These warm feelings are a tribute to your devotion. If he did betray you, no one is to blame but himself, to damage such a precious thing." in a neat not-quite-steady script at the end of the book, pressing her pen down a little too hard.

then smiles, stands, and offers the book back to Jack.]

Thank you, sir Jack. I think that's all that was needed.

[dramatispersonae]

He gives a sweet smile to her with a nod.

"Did you find a flaw?"

[sightunseen]

Only a caution that I don't think he remembered. I wouldn't question his judgment of you, with so little knowledge.

[dramatispersonae]

"Hm, it isn't like him to be forgetful. At least, you were able to remember for him. Thank you~."

[sightunseen]

You're very welcome... I hope he has a good nap. Good evening, sir Jack...

[I THINK WE'RE OUT, GIL, DON'T YOU]

[dramatispersonae]

He is holding the door open for her, but he has been ready to go since they walked in, okay.

[sightunseen]

[gives him another polite farewell nod and WE'RE SO GONE. doesn't say anything till they're well out and then SIGHS]

[dramatispersonae]

Gilbert is rucking a hand through his hair and pausing when he puts a hand in his pocket.

"What did you do ... ?"

[sightunseen]

I don't know anything about this Jack, really, but Vincent seems to be prone to blame himself when others treat him badly... I reminded him not to do that, that's all...

[dramatispersonae]

"M-Mm. I hope he listens ... "

[sightunseen]

Yes...

[smiles over at him]

...let's go see what's wrong in the center, now.

[and heading that way.]

[dramatispersonae]

It will lead to this, and Kamui's thread is a good reflection of what happens if you go down the hole! . . . I am awesome at summaries, shh.

So, essentially, does she head towards the creepy voices or the unknowable dark?

[sightunseen]

[unknowable dark I think]

[dramatispersonae]

Well, it may take a long stretch of time to get there, long enough to feel like giving up, but she will eventually come across a younger Vincent who is awake and in a long white shirt but without pants . . . You can't have everything, okay. He will calmly regard her for awhile before calling her name.

[sightunseen]

Vincent...

[does he allow hugs, though she's not pushy about it ;;]

[dormancy]

[yes, he will allow it, but not hugging back]

[sightunseen]

[going to do her best at cuddles + reassurance, okay]
