Originium storms. After one of those passes through, not only is the place destroyed, there's Originium crystals growing all over it-- and anybody who survived is probably Infected. Basically a total loss.
[so yes, extremely survival driven.
she's starting to put together ingredients, even as she says all of this.]
It's a waste of time. You don't get why that kind of thing's bad for mercs?
[at least she's doing okay with the chocolate-making-- she may not be a baker, but she's a reasonably good cook, so she can follow instructions for food.]
[a little danger could be fun, she says, and by the myriad fucking souls, wiš'adel is so gone. she'll be embarrassed by this later. for now, though, she just hurriedly shoves one of the chocolates at elysia.]
H-here. Try it, if it's shit then I'm starting over with the rest.
[ wis'adel is soooo cute. elysia thinks this as well. she holds the chocolate tenderly, like it's so precious, for a second before she pops it into her mouth. ]
It's delicious. Thank you. I'd be happy to have the rest of them.
[sorry she's momentarily SHUT DOWN on account of her nearly sparkling, but on the bright side, it's easy to take her hands like that. her cheeks flush once more, tail swishing.]

It sounds like it's so integrated in your way of life that it's pretty much normal. Is there anything to combat it?
[ she watches wis'adel before she joins in. she's no expert when it comes to either cooking or baking. ]
no subject
[but that's less important than:]
So, what... what flavor do you like.
no subject
[ she hums. ]
I think strawberry sounds nice right now.

[it's fine. people simply die, and that's all there is to it; infection is a fact of life.
her tail swishes again when elysia answers, a little more perked.]
I should've figured you'd want it to match.
[pink & red, like all the decorations here.]
no subject
[ there's no censure or judgment. ]
Huh? It's not about matching.... oh, or maybe it is. I thought it'd be nice to have it as sweet as me.
no subject
[she absolutely the fuck was NOT
wis'adel might be a little pink herself.]
no subject
Huh? Is everything okay?
[ she takes a closer look at w, as if she can solve mysteries just by peering. ]
no subject
[do not perceive her! she's busy making chocolate!]

no subject
[she is definitely blushing.]
Shut up and let me work!

[stop looking at her like thatttt. she quickly looks away, turning her attention back to the chocolate... save her, chocolate.]

Why wouldn't you?

[IMMEDIATELY correcting herself:]
-of course you would! I figured it couldn't be that hard.
[ughhh. why is she so cute. she wants to snap a picture of that face.]
no subject
Of course I would. You did a wonderful job. Much better than I did.
no subject
[as difficult as it is for her to admit to their cuteness.]
no subject
she's practically sparkling. ]
You think they're cute? That makes me so happy, Wis'adel!
[ she is going to try to grab her hands and clasp them between hers. ]
no subject
[sorry she's momentarily SHUT DOWN on account of her nearly sparkling, but on the bright side, it's easy to take her hands like that. her cheeks flush once more, tail swishing.]
