I shake my head at that, for some reason, frowning slightly. "Well... up until now I've been afraid my brother was dead, and I came here today to get confirmation that a friend was. But other than that I'm much better than you. How's that?"
And was that mildly... cruel? Snarky?

I was about to say something, like 'oh, sorry to hear' or something else along those lines but I clamped my mouth shut tight at the comment she had about being much better than I was. What exactly is staying silent going to do besides make the company you have for now run off? Besides saying that what you say is really getting to me, go die? "There's that at least." I said, shrugging my shoulders lightly as I looked up at her.

"Well, yes," I shrug. "But it was cruel to say, at any rate. Sorry."
I glance over my shoulder uneasily, wishing that I could get out of here now without feeling... I don't know... cruel? Rude?

"Does cruelity such as that really matter here?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. It was nothing compared being forced to live here at any rate.
She glanced over her shoulder and I laughed faintly, wondering why she'd do such as that, then again, we were in Azkaban.

"Cruelty always matters." I shrug slightly. "Doesn't matter to who, or where you are... cruelty is cruelty."

"If you'd rather think of it that way." I said, shrugging my shoulders now. Really, maybe I did think that same way, just really, what she thought was cruel was only slightly, but I desereved it really, and it wasn't nearly as bad as being locked up in Azkaban at any rate.

I shrug at that, deciding not to argue, and look over my shoulder again. There's really no reason for me to be here anymore, so I back away a few steps, preparing to leave.

"Are you leaving now?" I asked softly, biting my lip faintly, wishing I wouldn't have made that comment to prompt an arguement.

"Is there any reason to stay?" I ask, shrugging. "We don't even really like each other anymore."
We've only ever been tentative friends, really, and I don't see that changing very much, unless perhaps for the worse.

"I guess not." I said simply. Just me trying to not, oh I dunno, fall apart in here so fast, so completely apart. "Right, just run back to Riley for me." I muttered, pulling away, standing up and walking to the back of the cell.

I wince just a little bit at that, but then again.... "Well, seeing as you've kind of betrayed him and broken his heart, I suppose I should go see how he is, yes," I say, then wonder why the hell I didn't just turn around and leave.

I only laughed softly, but none the less, I still laughed, all because I knew that comment had to have gotten at her at least a little bit, because she'd stayed, she hadn't turned and left, just like I almost hoped, because I was up for anything to just not be alone at this moment. "Broken his heart. He's the one who left me." I scoffed, rolling my eyes and turning back towards her. "You haven't been 'round there yet? Kind of hard to believe that." I said, smirking faintly.

"You think he could've done that if it wasn't broken?" I counter, then shake my head. "I haven't... jumped in to take your place or anything, if that's what you're thinking. I'm just trying to be a good friend."

"I honestly think he could've. You weren't there, you don't know what happened. How could you possibly even begin to know?" I asked, raising an eyebrow, shaking my head a little. "And I wouldn't think of it if I were you." I hissed, meaning every word that I just said to her. I don't think I'd be able to take that for one thing, and if I could I'd wait until I could get out of here and I'd probably kill her, well I'd like to think I would, I don't think I'd be able to at all, mostly because of the toll Azkaban was taking on me.

"Don't worry about it," I say, eying her cautiously. I really don't know you very well, do I? And neither did he.
I don't even bother to argue with the rest of it, but she's being somewhat scary. Not that she's likely to get out and come hunt me down or anything.... You get life in Azkaban for murder, so she's pretty well stuck now. And I guess I can pity her somewhat even if I really don't like her.

"Wasn't planning on it." I muttered, rolling my eyes slightly before looking at her with my eyes narrowed faintly as she eyed me cautiously. I wasn't sure if she was threatened by that or not, but I swear I'd make is so she'd regret it if she ever did 'jump right in and take my place'. Riley was the only one that thought I'd get out of here, Arden probably thought she'd be safe, I thought I was going to die in this place. Who knew what other people thought, or if they even cared.

"Good," I nod again. "Because he loves you anyway, the idiot. Even after what you've done. Just so you know that."
And I think I really am going to go now....

"I don't want to know that. I hate him for it." I whispered, looking down at the ground. "It makes everything so much harder." Makes the fact of just letting myself give up on everything so much harder. It won't let me let go of everything.

"Well, maybe you deserve that then," I say coolly, shrugging.

Post by Riyann Servansikk on Nov 8, 2008 15:12:01 GMT
"Yet I don't deserve cruel words of yours?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. Having to deal with the fact that Riley still loved me was far worse because I hated to hurt him which meant that I really did have to hold on, though I wasn't sure if I would.

"I didn't say that you didn't deserve it," I shrug. "I just said it wasn't right. There's a difference."
Not one that I can explain, but there is a difference nonetheless.

"Oh, right." I muttered, rolling my eyes a little. There were definite parts of this little chat that I didn't much want to remember and I was doubtful of ever forgetting them.

I shrug in return, and decide yet again that I ought to just leave, and I don't know why I haven't yet.

"So what now?" I asked, not sure what the question entailed just yet, just filling the silence instead.

Post by Arden Patricks on Nov 10, 2008 22:05:45 GMT
"Honestly? I guess I leave." I shrug slightly. I think perhaps the reason I can't seem to leave is that I can't think of an appropriate thing to say as I do so... which, now that I think of it, is utterly ridiculous.

"Then what are you waiting for?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. "Doesn't bother me that you're hear, just makes me know you're not out doing things you shouldn't." I add with a small smirk. It wouldn't bother me so much as hurt me if her and Riley did get together, and I could only blame myself, so there.

Again, I've no idea what I'm waiting for and actually start to leave right then, but turn back at the 'things you shouldn't' comment, opening my mouth -
"Not worth it," I mutter under my breath, turning away again.

Post by Riyann Servansikk on Nov 16, 2008 3:12:11 GMT
I laughed at her when she said not worth it and turned around again. "Oh, but dear Arden, why not?" I asked with a faint chuckle, shaking my head slightly.

I hesitate a moment before turning back this time, and shrug. "Because... you're in Azkaban, and there's really just no point."

"Right." I said and laughed a little. Yet her dear dead friend, well there was a point. "Suit yourself."
