Round 3 Witch contact post
[The Witch of Misfortune can be easily found wandering around, mostly in the Master Bedroom. Though seems she'll easily stop whatever she's doing and chat with you, at least...]
... Yeah. I guess it was a pretty big mess in the trial, huh.
[Does he have any self-awareness about burning down the trial, y'all--]
I did try to make it as quick as the courtroom would let me, but...
[That's probably the closest he'll come to an apology?? Because he sure doesn't regret that punishment, still. He tilts his head at her like a curious canine, because he still has Questions about the whole affair.]

[He lets the hot mess of trial go for the moment.]
So why did you take it? I mean, I don't mind either way. I just thought it was supposed to be part of the Game for Watanuki to take it.

[oh no oh no oh no]
Are...
[She doesn't have an end to that sentence.
Instead, she tries giving Nirrti a hug. It's awkward, somewhat stiff, not a movement she's used to, not even a movement Karen was really used to, but it's what she thinks of.]

The Witch of Misfortune saw enough suffering... I guess it's different because he's also a Witch.
[He glances at her as he says that, but it's not entirely a call-out.
Sometimes he lets people get away with things, maybe.]

...They are...fools. I am - not a human, and I will never be one.
I am...hatred. Rage. Sorrow. Shadenfreude.
Even those pieces I get along with...are no more than interesting toys to me, to watch as they slowly break.
...Did you know? Anon was someone I feel kinship with, and yet...seeing him upset, my heart danced with delight and glee.
[She stops hugging him, and pulls away - her eyes still startlingly empty pits of darkness.]
....Why would they even attempt to embrace an abyss that delights in seeing them suffer...?
Why not...just blame me, and curse me like they did before - like how it has always happened?

[He lets her pull away, not chasing after her yet.]
...
[Watanuki knows what he wants to say, but he can't be the one to say it. She has to hear the words from a human and believe them for this all to come to an end.
But for now, he can prep her for it, and at least get her to open her ears to them.]
I can't say for sure. I know why I don't blame you, but I'm not Human anymore. My reasoning may not be in line with theirs.
But I suspect if you asked them and listened, they would have an answer for you. Humans are good at talking, if you give them the space to talk.

It's not surprising. People like to group together with those who can understand them, and of course that would include Witches.
[It's just another facet of the lesson they've been talking about. The other side to the dark.
He says it pretty neutrally, all things considered.]
... I'm glad it was worth your while, then. I learned a lot from this Game, even some things I didn't want to learn, but that's how life goes. [...] Nirrti, do you remember when you asked me about that contract?

[He's quiet for a long time. He might even sleep, though it's light and unproductive]
I almost accepted your offer, you know.

When I came to my senses, I felt...horrible, like a complete monster for what I'd done...and I still do, in some respects.
[ She's still upset about Saber, honestly. Saber was nothing but kind to her, she really didn't deserve anything that happened to her. ]
...so we've obviously gone down different paths, maybe even the exact opposite ones. But I mean what I said. Despite this...I don't hate you.
If it's okay, I'd...like to talk with you again later.

...Humans are good at talking. They are also good at betraying, and turning a kind person into a symbol to be hated.
[She's quiet for a moment, before closing her eyes.]
...I will...listen. But that is all I will do.
And I will watch, waiting to see them inevitably betray each other for their own piece of mind.

[She's quiet for a long, long while - before she slowly nods.]
That is fine.
I will listen to you - not as a piece, but as one who nearly walked down the path of Witchhood herself.
[There's...something in her eyes, but she turns around before sakura can really get a good look.]
