[Just...screaming. Laura's communicator turned on when she dropped it to the ground, and it transmits shrill screaming that sounds more than a little like Laura's gone off the deep end. She witnessed bloody sacrifices, one of whom was her buddy Miss Parker, and she was possessed. Not just a little possessed, like BOB used to do in order to write to her in her diary, but full-on controlled. She feels raped, and that's not an exaggeration--she knows all too well what physical rape feels like, and it's on par with that, to her. Possibly even worse, because of how hard she fought to stay herself...even letting herself be killed rather than taken as a host.

She's collapsed to her knees on the deck and has her hands tangled in her hair. There are no words...only shrieks.]

[Paddy was running around, and entirely expecting this after everything ended like that.

So he was quickly on deck after the post. He'd seen this coming, and that was why he had tried so hard to get them swapped around.

He simply fell to his knees next to her and put his arms around her,]

S'alright, Laura. I'm so sorry. I... oh God, I fucking tried, Laura.

[Paddy just held her tightly anyway, not caring that she was screaming down his earhole,]

I know, I'm fucking sorry! I tried to get her out, and I know, I know, it's so wrong. So fucking wrong. It'll be alright. She's never coming back. Never, ever coming back.

[Paddy reaches up and gently tries to take her hands away from her face. Last thing he wanted was her hurting herself.]

It's not going to happen again. There were fucking crazy goddesses involved, and all sorts. I... I ain't gonna let it, Laura.

[If it did, he was seriously wondering if killing her might actually help.]

[He still doesn't let go of her,] No, no he won't. You're not defenceless against him, remember? She... she was a fucking goddess. There was other stuff at work.

Because... I don't fucking know, Laura, but if he does, he ain't gonna have any powers like that, is he? He'd be a fucking inmate through and through.

[He grimaced a little,]

Look... I can try and see if anyone has got some fancy ass keeping-folks-out-your-brain skills. I won't say anything about what it is, or owt, but I can try. There's gotta be something. We can keep him out. And if not... if not, and I find out or something, do you want me to shoot you? I can... [He paused. He thought he could.] Just... just as security.

I won't fucking tell them that's why. I'll... fuck, I'll say it's for me. I'll make some shit up, I don't give a fuck.

[He nods,]

Alright. I won't let you suffer.

[There's a long pause,] I need you to write that down for me later, so... we'll sort it later.

It'll be alright, Laura, I promise. I'm so sorry it happened to you. I'd have fucking swapped with you if I could.

[Paddy nodded,] Sorry it wasn't good enough, love. Really fucking sorry.

Let's... Laura, what do you want to do?

[there's a very, very long pause. He's actually considering it.]

Laura, I can't, not right now. But...

I've gotta tell you a secret.

[He's been debating this for ages.]

[He shook his head,]

No. No, I don't.

But I've got something which might help you. That I... probably really shouldn't have. And there's strict, strict conditions to it, as I don't have much.

I wasn't sure whether to tell you or not. But now... yeah, I probably should.

Very, very little. It's for emergencies. Not for fucking fun, y'know. Not... to feed an addiction. For fucking emergencies. You've gotta come to me to get it, you're not knowing where I keep it, and once it's gone... it's gone. I ain't asking the Admiral for any. That's not how I do.

[Pause.]

And I ain't using it against you. It isn't something to be traded or exchanged. Fucking emergencies.

[He winces, because he knows she's right, but also knows what he can, and can't, do.]

You might not, no. But you might. If you do, come to me. If... look, I really don't think he's gonna show. If he does, and it's too late, we've got other options, but...

There's gotta be some signs at least now and then, hasn't there?

[He paused, bizarrely trying to pinpoint where there was ceiling fans on the Barge.]

...those two... alright, I can keep an eye out for those two.

It'll be alright, Laura, honest. It will.

Well. Sometimes, you've gotta believe it, against all fucking odds. Sometimes.

[Voice. Laura's dislodged something that barely sounds like Arthas at all, but not in the way Itzcoliuhqui didn't - it's just a badly shaken young man that wishes he was allowed to scream like that.]

...Which one got you?

[A noise of - disgust, maybe. Filth eater. He used to protect people, before all of this. That was his job. Can't protect her from this. Too many young women in danger on this boat. :/

He wonders vaguely how long he's going to stay lucid.]

Alright.

[And is that all he can do? yeah. wtg arthas. The cold is starting to creep back into his voice.]

All I can say is... at least it ended. You're back again.
