Summary: Denna asks Ed about Ren.


Denna: *comes in with her usual tray of food, breakfast this time, complete with some actual juice and a fresh muffin* Good morning, Edward. *smiles, sitting down near him with the tray*

T!Ed: *jerks awake, looking at her blearily and pulling himself up into sitting, making a face* 'Morning.

Denna: *frowns apologetically* ...I didn't mean to wake you, sorry. The food's fresh, though. I had to sneak in early so no one would miss it. *pushes it toward him a bit*

T!Ed: ...Thank you. *tentatively takes the muffin, looking down at blankly before glancing up at her quickly* S'not poisoned?

Denna: *shakes her head* Nope. Those are blueberries, I think.

T!Ed: S'close. *nibbles at it, watching the floor*

Denna: *curls up a little, leaning back against the wall* Sleep okay?

T!Ed: *nods his head, making a face as he accidently ingests a bit of muffin paper*

Denna: *smiles* Good. Um, careful with that. *laughs a little*

T!Ed: Right. *carefully peels off the rest of the rest of the paper, finishing off the muffin*

Denna: *sighs, picking idly at a staple* I think you're doing better than he thought you would, you know. He keeps asking me about you and it's all these weirdly directed questions.

T!Ed: *narrows his eyes a fraction and glances at the camera before flipping the bird at it and going back to finishing his breakfast*

Denna: *makes sure to turn her face away from the cameras making as if to cough when she laughs* I admire you. I really do.

T!Ed: I want to go home. I want to see Ren. *doesn't look at her, eating slowly*

Denna: I know... *sighs tiredly* I haven't heard anything about bringing him here yet. They must be waiting for something, I mean- they know exactly where he is, it isn't a matter of tracking him down... *shrugs, lacing her fingers*

T!Ed: He'll kill you all and I'll help him. *very matter of fact*

Denna: *frowns looking over at him* After what's been done to you... *shakes her head* I would be lying if I didn't say that you scare me. After that stunt back in the operating ward... *shivers* ...What's he like, anyway?

T!Ed: Scary. *flashes her an eerie smile*

Denna: *edges back a bit, unconsciously* You think your own husband is scary?

T!Ed: S'got broken bottles. *finishes off his breakfast, leaning against the wall* He's a homunculus. 'Course he can be scary.

Denna: Broken bottles? *frowns* Does he hurt you?

T!Ed: Not unless I want him to.

Denna: *raises her eyebrows* You have a lot of scars.

T!Ed: From other people. None from him. *glances down at the blades in his arms*\

Denna: ...Huh. So is that all he really is? Scary?

T!Ed: No. *shakes his head* Buys me things... Takes care of me. I want him back.

Denna: That's very... human of him. Isn't it? I mean, a domesticated homunculus is almost unheard of.

T!Ed: *growls faintly* He loves me, that's why.

Denna: I've never heard of one falling in love. *smiles, a little wistfully* I guess he's getting old... or lonely. Or both.

T!Ed: It happens. *shrugs, fidgeting agitatedly*

Denna: I guess it's just weird for me to hear about him from someone who knows him personally after all this time. I talk to the boss a lot and he talks about Darren a lot, so it's just... weird.

T!Ed: Your boss is crazy. You're crazy. You're all crazy. Hope I die soon so I don't have to be here anymore. Hate it here.

Denna: *face falls, looking down at her hands* ...I'm so sorry...

T!Ed: You're not sorry. Don't say that. *curls up a little, glaring*

Denna: But... I am. *looks away* I'd never say this outside of this room, but I think it's horrible that he brought an unwilling outsider here to be tortured and broken. It's- it's awful. *bites her lip, glancing at the camera*

T!Ed: Then take me home if you're so sorry. Let me go.

Denna: I can't. You know that...

T!Ed: ...Have to get out myself then. Have to see him again, want to see him again.

Denna: I don't think I've ever seen anyone as devoted to their spouse as you are. You came here for him, right? You thought it was a trade?

T!Ed: Yeah, thought it was a trade... Thought he would be safe if I gave myself up. *laughs hollowly*

Denna: Yes, trading isn't generally in the Boss's repertoire. Darren just let you go?

T!Ed: *shakes his head* I didn't tell him. I left him a note and then went.

Denna: Oh my god. *widens her eyes a bit*

T!Ed: What..?

Denna: Just... um... Well, I'm considerably more intimidated than I was...

T!Ed: Why would you be? *looks at her blankly*

Denna: Your devotion. It's intimidating. I have nothing from personal experience to compare it to, since we're generally discouraged from getting attached to others.

T!Ed: I love him. I would do anything for him. *curls up a little tighter*

Denna: *nods silently* He is privileged. And you are probably going to be broken before you ever see him again. *looks down*

T!Ed: *rests his head against the wall padding, eyes sliding shut* If I can't go home, I want to die.

Denna: He isn't going to let you. *sighs* I can tell you that already.

T!Ed: Then I won't let him hurt me anymore.

Denna: *just shakes her head, not meeting his eyes*

T!Ed: ...Won't let him hurt me anymore... *whimpers*

Denna: *really really quiet* ...I have an idea. Not sure how long it would work, but... you could try...

T!Ed: *looks at her quickly* What idea?

Denna: He-- Um- he wants you... broken. Empty. *picks nervously at her staples* You could... act..?

T!Ed: ... *laughs hysterically* Act? Act?! For that bastard?! What the fuck good would that do me?

Denna: It might buy you some time. If you really think Darren is coming to get you out, it might buy you time. *shakes her head* I shouldn't be talking about this.

T!Ed: *snorts a derisive laugh* I'd rather kill him.

Denna: *sighs quietly* Suit yourself.

T!Ed: Kill him, rip him apart... Make him bleed... *twitches faintly*

Denna: *backs up against the wall* Um, maybe I should take the dishes back now...

T!Ed: *snarls, curling up more*

Denna: *winces, jumping nervously as she gathers up the breakfast things, moving toward the doors* Would you like me to bring your dinner as well?

T!Ed: *nods, smiling wickedly, not moving from his spot on the floor* Going to need it to kill you all~

Denna: *makes a small, frightened noise, hurrying for the door and making a hasty exit*
