I'll get you a weapon then, [ she says, with no hesitation. ] I don't have your girlfriend as a temp anymore, I'm sure I can bully the newer one into getting me something that I'll give to you.
[Trevor grins and nods. He's very angry about it all, but he's saving his anger for his own talk with Lark, if and when he comes sniffing around]
Yeah. I got in the middle of a warden-inmate fight by way of a flung knife and the warden was Lark's brother.
You want to know what pisses me off the most about it all? That he wasn't satisfied with the curse. I had so much shit I had to work for from Flotilla and beyond, things that I loved, that had stayed with me for a year or longer. All of it's vanished. I hate that he stole things I earned.
It’s more like I can defend myself if my life’s in danger. But if your life is in danger and there’s a warden nearby - or, fuck it, a warden hurting you - I can’t do jack shit except with my fists.
[There are a lot of things that Trevor could say to that. How it's literally his job and purpose to protect other people. How anything else feels like such a waste and would be spitting on the graves of his family. How he already did that for ten years and hated himself and is slowly beginning to hate himself again for this uselessness. That he's not someone who ever wanted to be protected.
But he says none of it just yet, and lets his expression turn to one of curiosity. He promised he would do his best not to infect Kyoko with his personal brand of bitterness]
I'm stronger, faster, and more durable in my magical girl form than in my normal form. And I can also summon my weapon. I use a spear that can break up into chunks and turn into a whip.
[ Kyoko grins, proud of herself as she nods at Trevor. ]
Really? My family weapon's a whip, too. I'd like to see that. Ours doesn't turn into anything else, but I'm fairly sure it contains a soul of a woman who died 500 years ago.
[He gives a grin back, hiding most of his weariness.]
You know, Sypha gave me my magic back. I can show you whenever you want. But I'm only gonna show you when you're better and not in the hospital anymore.
I haven't really talked to either of them, [ she admits. ] But I'd probably not want to piss off Dracula just cause Hunter'll get grumpy at me if I do.
Then it's a good thing I don't know if I count as human anymore, [ she retorts, grin on her face. It's a little joke, tossed out without thinking, but the way Kyoko's expression shifts a little afterwards tells Trevor she's been thinking about this more often than not. ]

And don't fucking fight Death. He's an evil bastard and I don't have my weapons on me anymore.

Anyway, what you need to defeat Death is a special god-killing weapon. Something extremely holy or unholy.

Who put that curse on you? Was it your warden? [ because if so, she will YELL AT LARK. ]

Yeah. I got in the middle of a warden-inmate fight by way of a flung knife and the warden was Lark's brother.

What a jackass. And an idiot! We've got all sorts of bullshit in this place, even if you can't attack, you've gotta have a way to defend yourself!

What scares me is being in a position where I see something bad happening or about to happen and I can’t stop it.
no subject
If something bad happens, call me. Sypha gave me my magic back. I'll protect you, Trevor.

Yeah? Thanks. What kind of magic can you do?

[ Kyoko grins, proud of herself as she nods at Trevor. ]
I'll show you more when you're better.

Then there's Alec, whose husband is my warden. And Dracula, of course.

I'd be careful if I were you. His two ways of showing annoyance are rolling his eyes and genocide of the human race. There's no in-between.

Well. Two arms. Two legs. No claws, no pointed ears. Show me your teeth.
