"-SNORE-"
An invisible force grips Maeva's arm, tightly.
"Now, I'm in a very good mood today, ma'am, so I'll let you off with..."
Dio Casually U Ses His Stand To Violently Rip Out One Of Maeva's Tooth
"A warning."
and then he vanishes
and now mildred's sobbing
fucing christ i want sleep goodnight
-Blue blood fills her mouth and she shrieks out as she hits the ground-
-The moment she opens her eyes and sees Steph, though, thoughts of her own pain are pushed back-
-She gets up and goes to her side-
<St-Steph! Steph, stay awake. Look at me.>
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?<It's okay. You're alive. It's okay, it's— just don't move.>
-Feels for broken bones-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?<Okay... okay, I'm going to move you inside now. I'm going to keep the pressure off your ribs, but you're still going to feel it. Are you ready?>
-Slowly positions herself to lift her up-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?…
(Nods and gently moves Tab to where she's leaning on him instead, looking about as enthused about this as he does everything else.)
...You're her... friend...?
S-Steph? Steph! STEPH!
(SCURRY SCURRY SCAMPER oh frick look who it is in the distance, Steph!)
STEEEEEEPHHHHH!
make it through this year if it kills you yet | 2001-2019-Maeva supports her, careful to keep pressure away from the fractures-
<Steph! Hold still. Do you need me to carry you?>
-Says this plainly, keeping a steady calm voice-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?...That's... That's... good... She... She needs to have... friends...
(this fucking sad monotone, good lord...)
...I was... worried she... didn't... have one...
S-STEPH, OH GOD!
(RUNS up to her, stopping just short and looking up at OH GOD ALIEN)
...U-uh, is— did— w-w-what the frick happened to her?!
(Is already starting to cry.)

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Wh—wh— o-okay, uhhh—
(Scurries alongside, just looking so scared, face red and tears streaming down.)
S-Steph, y— D-don't die, Steph, s-stay awake for me, p-please...!
...I'm... I'm Caster... Or... Lloyd Christmas, that's... what I... go by...
(Weak nod, trying not to move much with Tab on him.)
...It's... good to... meet you... Sam...
