Mm. It's the first time I got to talk to Lio. I thought he was this horrible guy. But I was the horrible one, because all the things he said were true!
[He takes a pretty long pause, like he's weighing what to say, and then taking a deep breath.]
I think he admitted it because he knew it'd give him an excuse to get me out of the way. I don't know that for sure, but I keep thinking about it and thinking about it. Someone here pointed out how my profile mentions that I kept getting put on really dangerous assignments, and whether I had an enemy. And. . .the Gov recommended me for those positions. I thought he was only looking out for me. But.
He admitted everything, and when I said I wouldn't go along with it, he had me arrested so I wouldn't cause trouble.
though it's worth noting that if galo can feel as he felt, he'll realize that when babo kim—agni turns brown, his irritation levels do increase (if abruptly); however, there's no true anger or killing intent, despite his words and actions taken.]
Well, the fire is... just a thing I do, sometimes. And that guy was someone I've known for a long time, and he was trying to destroy the city, but he probably had his reasons for going berserk, so I was trying to figure that out? And then things... happened?
[wow, that sure was a long time ago. he misses the days when gandharva frustrated the hell out of him slightly less.]
I mean, sure, since no one's heard of the Burnish anywhere else. Okay, whatever, so you're a guy who can control fire but where you're from they don't call that Burnish.

[He clenches a fist.]
I've been trying to make it right ever since.
no subject
But you're a really sincere guy, so I'm not surprised.
no subject
[But he smiles a little, pleased at what he says.]
The truth is, maybe if the Gov had denied everything, it would've been harder? But when I confronted him, he openly admitted to everything.

I'm sorry. It's hard to lose your faith in someone.
But it sounds like that isn't going to slow you down.

[He nods.]
I'm not letting it stop me.
[And now you owe me a memory!!!]
no subject
[he smiles... and then freezes, because another memory appears.

[Does he? Yes, he does get when someone tries to destroy a city but probably has reasons for going berserk.]
So. . .you're a Burnish?
no subject
Um... no.
no subject
No? But you were controlling fire.
