[ It's not fair and he will die for it later, but. Eh. ]
Uh huh. Sorry.
[ With all the energy of someone who's not sorry at all. They're free to continue to be annoyed with the lack of Anything. The hammer is already in one hand, tapping idly against the side of his neck as he stares at nothing. Gotta get the force right.
Lion speaks. Coherent. Using the fancy speech when they get snippy. Still annoyed, but not vibrating with it. Not... consumed. Recreating a personality is hard. Too easy to fall into old habits. Easier still to get stuck on one feeling and run it into the ground. All the Heavens know how terrible his own ended up, but at least he can knock Lion off the mental hamster wheel they get stuck on.
And theirs is coming out splendidly. Strong-willed. Entirely open to speaking their true feelings, even if it weirds out strangers. Trying to make light of a horrible truth. They need more practice. Optimism suits them better. Makes them radiant. Eyes bore into the back of Lion's head at the question. They don't deserve another nightmare. Give them something Nice for a change. ]
Didn't know you spoke rock. [ That grammar is horrid you bastard- ] ...Cadet gray.
[ Huh. Weird pick.
Alas, Lion does get the chance to question it. One quick gavel strike, but without any of the Weight to it. One (1) perfectly split geode is their reward. ]
