Who: Annie Goldstein, Sara Mudou, The Major
When: idk aroundish this week sometime
Where: Sara's house and then Casa Fuck-Up
What: Annie ate Sara in a non-sexy way during the Break event. They talk about it. The Major finds out. This is the opposite of a positive outcome.
Warnings: The Major. Annie. Mentions of cannibalism. None of these are good things.

Annie has spent the larger part of a half hour pacing outside of Sara's house, wondering if she should knock on the door or not. How does she even go about doing this? "Hey, sorry for, like, eating you and shit, are we still bros?" That probably wasn't going to fly. But, she'll never find out if she keeps standing out here like a fucking idiot.

... So, she throws a rock at the door.

Best idea.

"I don't need to explain shit to you." She turns her chair away slightly, staring at her hands. They're still balled into fists. "She's my fucking friend, I didn't fucking mean to..."

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

"You're right, you don't!"

The Major leans back in his chair, the wood giving a creak at the shifting of his weight on it.

"It doesn't change the fact you did, did you? And yet, such things shouldn't bother a monster, now should they?

They're but a part of your nature, in the end. Maybe it was an outside force guiding you this time.

But it's ultimately what you are, regardless."

[werejew]

"... I'm not a monster."

Her voice sounds softer than usual.

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

The Major keeps his eyes on Annie, the corners of his fat lips twitching. Just twitching, ever so slightly. A herald, to the sound that proceeds to echo through the room. Soft at first, a wheezing almost, before getting higher and higher.

Laughter is something that comes easily to the Major. It always has, and always will. But right now it seems a little madder at most. And it's hard to tell why that is. If it's just a sign of his cruelty, his derangement.

Or if that statement is just too damn funny, Annie.

[werejew]

"Fuck you!"

She slams her fists down on the table. "You're the only fucking monster here! How the fuck did you find out in the first place! How the fuck did you know!"

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

His laughing dies down, not out of fear but in forcing himself to calm down so he can answer.

"Well.

I suppose you might say I had a little help from my friends."

[werejew]

"Liar. You don't have those."

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

"I do. But if you have no intention of telling me yours, I have no reason to tell you mine."

[werejew]

"If your so-called 'friends' are fucking spying on me, I think I should fucking know."

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

"But I shouldn't know your friends?

My, how unfair!"

[werejew]

"Why would you even care about my friends? They haven't done shit to you."

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

"But you've done quite a bit to me, haven't you?

And the actions you may take against me? Apply to all those you know, as well."

[werejew]

"How the fuck does that work out! Only I've done anything, not them!"

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

"Ah. Therein lies the trick, one could say, the double edged sword of friendship.

What you do reflects upon those who associate with you as well, Annie. And it provides me with a knowledge of who you care about. You've allowed yourself to have an opening in your already...rather fragile armor!

I would be a fool not to strike at it, if it should ever suit me, would I not?"

[werejew]

"... If you touch them, I'll hurt you."

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

"Do you think I care?"

[werejew]

"You should."

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

"Why?"

The Major stands up, turning his back on Annie as he goes to the sink. He rinses the coffee cup out before preparing to put some water in it itself.

"Tell me. What can you do to me aside from kill me? If that's the only threat you have to offer, it isn't worth much. Surely you've learned that in the time you've spent with me."

[werejew]

She follows him across the room with her eyes. "I can do something else. I could learn. And I could stop you."

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

The Major turns around, an eyebrow raised in amusement.

"You could stop...what, exactly?"

[werejew]

"I can stop you from hurting my friends." That's the least she can do-- or maybe the most. She isn't sure.

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

The Major finishes filling his glass and just looks at Annie a moment more.

And smiles.

"I suppose we'll see!"

And with that, he'll begin to walk upstairs.

[werejew]

She pauses for a bit, but then chases after him, stopping at the bottom of the stairs.

"And if anybody else ever finds out about this, I'll..." She trails off-- not in a threatening way, but because she really doesn't know what she would do.

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

The Major stops mid-step in the middle of the stairs and turns around.

"You'll do nothing.

It's not as if anyone would be surprised, girl."

[werejew]

"This isn't just something I fucking do, don't act like it is! It was the town! It wasn't my fault! She forgave me!"
