[week five - tuesday]

[ Vriska is in her cute little sundress today because her god tier duds are hanging up somewhere to dry after a thorough cleaning to maybe mostly get all that blood and dirt off them that had been accumulating. It's sunset, settling into evening as Vriska heads back towards the hut. It doesn't surprise her to see Jinah outside, but she'll stop anyway, the look on her face inscrutable.

And then she'll come close, tilt her head, and say: ]


Hey. Let's go for a walk?

[ It feels like a longtime where she says nothing-- it reminds her a little of all those times he'd taken his hands to her neck and wrung it out till she couldn't will her words to reach him anymore.

There are stages to all of it-- Vriska has told her a lot. ]


You lied to me.

[ Omission is a lie; a familiar one, just as familiar as the words "I did it to protect you" and "it was for your own good", accompanied by the same literal pill she never asked to take.

She's crying before she can stop herself. ]


You're the same, everything is the same. Everyone always does this!

[ In between all that she's angry somewhere deep down, but it's only really the sad that comes out first. ]

I would have done anything to help, I would have if you'd just told me. But you never trusted me.

That's not your choice to make!

[ It comes out in between ugly crying and snot and gritted teeth. She has her fists all balled up, a full blown tantrum in the works. ]

You're not sorry because if you say sorry you have to admit you were wrong. If you admit you're wrong then you've lost.

[ Maybe she knows this so well because it's a game she's played time and time again herself. It's why she's lead so many men to such bad ends. At the end of the day she will never admit she deserved any of this when there's so many cosmic forces that say she did.

Jinah understands Vriska, and it just serves to make her angrier. ]


I would have lied for you, I would have hurt people for you. Because I believed in you-- and that would have been my choice. I thought you were going to give me a choice, I thought you were going to be different. It's not fair, it's not..

[ There's something about what she says, or maybe it's the way she says it, but it flips some kind of switch in Jinah. She's still crying, but she stomps right up to Vriska and holds either side of her face, forcing her to look up and at her for however long till Vriska shakes her off. ]

No!

[ It comes out a little petulant, but it's more stern than Vriska has ever seen her. ]

Look at me.

[ she's not really crying anymore but her voice is a little uneven. ]

You promised you were going to trust me. You lied.

You're not listening! I didn't want anything except to be your partner.. for you to trust me and for us to be equals.

[ she lets go finally, her hands sort of hanging in the air like she doesn't know what to do with them. ]

You weren't the worst, but you were the same as everyone else I've ever known.

[ She's quiet for a moment. ]

I defended you, I gave you a chance to tell me the truth every week.
