w0, saturday 2.0
hi beau. shi qingxuan is here, with a freshly-pilfered bottle of (spins wheel) spiced rum from the bar cradled in her arms.]
...do you feel up to visitors?
no subject
[ she sighs, and pulls herself up to sit, wrapping her arms around her knees. she's got a blanket and a pillow, at least. ]
What's up, missy?
no subject
[but! she does want to at least drop something off. will she be able to pass the bottle of rum into the jail cell, because, she's definitely trying to.]
Are you thirsty? Or hungry? I... don't know what you like to eat.
no subject
... Thanks. I'm, um. I don't think I could keep anything down, but I appreciate it. Maybe I'll just fucking down this and not think for a while.
no subject
[noooo i don't want our thread to be super short. but. sqx also doesn't want to stick around if beau really doesn't want company, so: ]
If you change your mind and want someone around, you can send me a message... I'll come back.
[althoughhh she imagines mollymauk will probably be hanging around, too, so. she probably won't be alone? ...still, shi qingxuan just really doesn't like the idea of beau sitting in here not knowing what the hell is going to happen tomorrow.]
no subject
You don't have to go anywhere.
[ she's thinking about it and actually, being alone sounds awful, she doesn't want that. ]
no subject
Thank you. [she settles down to sit just in front of the jail cell, then, since she'll be here for a bit.] Would you like to talk about something entirely unrelated, to get your mind off it? Or...?
[what will help beau most? she wishes she knew her better; all she really knows is that beau's important to molly, and molly's important to beau.]
no subject
[ her grip tightens on the bottle. ]
Can I ask you a favor? It's - like, I know I don't know you that well, so you can say no.
no subject
Of course.
[she wants to help!]
no subject
no subject
honestly, she thought it would be something like this. shi qingxuan nods once, entirely serious.]
I will. I'll do everything I can. [...] But if something bad does happen tomorrow, don't think for a second that he's just going to let it be, or that I will either.
I know he wants you to make it out of this. And... I'd like all of us to get out of this, too.
no subject
[ sigh. ] But - I'm not gonna just take it lying down, obviously. Whatever is coming, I'm going to fight it.
no subject
[if she has anything to say about it, beau and molly are both getting out of this.]
...he told me why you came here. So - I know, you're not going to give up.
no subject
He did? Figures. [ huff. ] I let him die once. I'm not doing it again.
no subject
[she says it entirely sincerely. i'm sorry.]
So - I'd like to see you both make it out of this. Whatever happens tomorrow... I hope it turns out well.
no subject
[ she doesn't sound like she believes it, though. she's just going to drink, a whole lot. ]
no subject
...I'm sorry we didn't figure it out. For what it's worth - I didn't vote for you.
no subject
It's - fine. Or, you know, it's not? But I would've voted for me too.
no subject
We messed up. [...] I don't know how we're going to put it right, but I'm going to try to make sure we don't mess up again.
[ @ flurry im begging you have someone kill sqx i don't have the energy to keep this up for eight weeks this was a bad character choice on my part]
no subject
she nods a bit. ]
I'm with you on that one. [...] For right now, though, I'm just gonna get drunk.
no subject
[shi qingxuan would absolutely be doing the exact same in beau's shoes, if someone was willing to bring her alcohol.]
If you think of anything else you want...
