L: (this all started with the note Ree left me. it led me here. to the flashdrive. to Hu. they must all be in on it. all a part of this…Resistance. Resistance to what? Conformity? Society? the Government? i cant ask Hu, I’d be caught straight away and mysterious vanish in the night. there’s no telling how many more are in on it. how many go to this Academy, even. is someone else watching me, right now -)
E: whaaaat are you doing outside Del’s door?
L: just…thinking.
E:well ive got some insane news, but it looks like you’ve got something better. where did you go after class yesterday? you didnt even come back to the room last night. spill.
L: listen, something’s going on, but i cant talk about it here. i dont know who’s listening in.
E: wow, so mysterious. if you’re just hooking up with someone it’s not that big a deal, you know? unless…theyre ugly?? wait, are you sleeping with an ugly person? remember we had that conversation about knowing your worth -
L: no, thats so not it. not even close. and you know id never be that desperate.
E: wait, wait, wait, it’s not DEL -
L: dont be ridiculous.
E: then what -
L: not here.
grabs hand and yanks down hall.
E: this is a bit much don’t you think??
vulture opens door.
V: who’s shouting this early in the morning?
turns back into room. plants in a corner Lars door open with all screens gone. looks at Del, staring at food, weak. starts putting away pans from cooking. looks at del again who hasnt moved.
V: classes start in an 15. you should eat something.
D: not hungry.
V: kid, you haven’t eaten in days as far as i know -
D: haven’t been hungry.
V: look, you have to -
D: i keep seeing his face. that smile. you heard Lyr the other day, about what he’d done to his roommate (show lars door).
V: poison. you…he lived here? you were his roommate, too?
D: he used to cook. all the time. it was good. i never complained. (stands) come on, im going to be late.
V: but -
D: my father’s not paying you for your opinions. hurry up.
V: your father’s paying me to keep you alive -
D: im not dead yet.
tiraa and KL flying, tiraa holding her hands to strengthen her wings.
T: that’s it - straighten up a bit, it’s hard but you need to strengthen the muscles for when your feathers grow back in. at least you’re young so it won’t be too long to wait.
KL: my brother - used to fly - like this - with me. he let me - dive - too - because he’d catch me.
T:...i still can’t believe the rest of the world isnt destroyed. and that we’ve been lied to this whole time. …if you knew Cyras wasn’t from here either, why didnt you say anything?
KL: because hes scary. and i only saw the tattoo necks at mom’s work. i…don’t want to go back to mom.
T: why not?
KL; i like dad better. but he keeps me inside, and i dont like that.
T: let’s take a break, ok?
KL: ok.
descend. cyras watches, neck covered. Cici gets done talking to a neighbour who gave her veg, comes over. stands next to him, watching them come down.
Cici: make no mistake, im not happy there’s a Crow in this house. but i saw the way you protected them. and tiraa trusts you, for whatever reason.
C: she shouldnt.
Ci: my neighbour just told me of a transport van that came down the road near her about a week ago. Prison truck. well-guarded. large. rumor has it there were Crows inside. quite a few of them.
cyras eyes widen.
C: where were they headed.
Ci: to any number of high-security prisons or work camps down there, i imagine.
C: could you find out.
Ci: i could. if it means you leave alone and never return.
C: (look at t and KL) done.
Cyras nooooo

Cyrus, do you honestly think Tiraa wouldn't hunt you down like a dog if you left? Boy, get real. You're not getting out of this little found family unit now.

So Ky and Keelee’s mother was supposedly worst than their father? 😢 We had Ky’s backstory, but there is still so much more to it, of course. I can’t wait to know!!
