[filtered to Letty]

Can I talk to you?

[filtered to Roderick]

Can you come and see me? I'm in 603.

[characterdefect]

Not at the moment.

[tucky]

Can I come see you?

[He's probably in Zero, she thinks.]

private

[characterdefect]

Sure. 'M in the infirmary.

[tucky]

[She makes her way over there immediately, coming in and pulling up a chair next to his bedside.]

Hey.

private

[characterdefect]

Hey.

[He looks . . . pretty bad. Couple of bones broken, bruised up all over. His face alone is relatively unscathed.]

You here to yell at me?

Re: private

[tucky]

No.

[She pulls a leg up onto her chair, wrapping her arm around her knee and looking at him sadly.]

Why'd you do it?

[characterdefect]

You know why I did it.

[tucky]

But why her?

[characterdefect]

Because she was there.

[tucky]

[She sniffs, resting her cheek against her knees.]

I know you said I know why. And I guess I do, 'cause you told me a little bit. But can you tell me again? More?

[characterdefect]

[He cocks his head, staring at her, like he's trying to figure something out.]

Why do you wanna know?

[tucky]

Because you're my friend and I love you and I wanna know you.

[characterdefect]

It seems like something you won't understand, if you didn't already. It seems like it might just hurt you.

[ Private ]

[leavetreadmarks]

Not really in a talking mood.

[ Private ]

[tucky]

[She hesitates again before answering, because she doesn't know what that means. But she also knows Letty isn't the person she should be asking for reassurance from now - she should be giving it to her instead, or at least offering it.]

[tucky]

[And so she scurries on over there, looking about as guilty as she feels. She figures Letty won't want to get up to unlock the door, but she also doesn't want to just barge in, so... knock, knock.]
