[It has been a long, sleepless night for Talia. Her comm seems to activate mid-sentence. Her tone, typically so soft and warm, is quite obviously showing signs of her being on the verge of breaking.]
-n't know that. You can't know that.
Well, you know it too, little sparrow .. I'm just admitting it to myself.
Don't call me that. [There is anger in her tone, but strained.] They're not dead .. They're not ..
Who are you trying to convince, girl? ME? [The shadow laughs] They're dead. All of them. Not just your precious partner, Kris but your lifebonded. Dead, dead, dead. The Queen .. the Princess .. all the people of your world~
Stop .. please, just stop.
You know what that meeeeeeans, right? Come on, Queens Own .. What does it meaaaaan?
STOP. [She covers her ears, but it won't help. She chokes out a sob, shaking her head.]
He's dead too, isn't he Talia? [A menacing tone, full of laughter of the cruelest sort.] There's a reason you don't feel him in your mind anymore, little sparrow .. Admit it to yourself. You can suck down the rest of your ~poison~ and wallow once you admit it .. Deeeeeeeeeeeead.
[There is no answer this time, but a muffled sob. Oh, shadow, why you so cruel, baby?]
[Another burst of giggles, hiss-like and cold] Who heals the healer, empath?? So broken and unsure~ How can you even think to help others in this state? You seek to work others through their pain when you won't even accept your own? Shall I help, then? Hmmm? I can do that, you know.. help you accept your pain. Can you not even say his name? I'll say it for you then .. The dead one .. that meatsack is Rol-
STOP!!! Don't you dare! He's NOT dead. Don't you say that!!
[The voice is practically a purr as it continues without a beat] -an .. Rolan .. Rolan RolanRolan. You horse is dead, healer ..
[Muffled sobs can be heard under the hiss-like laughter and it all cuts off after a moment.]
[OOC: Responses might be slightly delayed due to work and a Disneyland weekend. Back tagging is fine and I'll get on responses asap. :) ]
