I've been reminded recently that despite living here so long, there's only so much any of them know about you or I, or us together.
It doesn't matter anyway. I need a place I can go that isn't full of people. I'm thinking of renting a small cottage in Violet City or something. People do that. Own a primary home and rent a getaway residence.
They are my friends and family. No, they don't need details, but general things... it helps to foster understanding. And it goes both ways. I...spoke to Heather, finally. Her actions, distasteful as they still are to me, were born of her personal experiences with angry men appearing from nowhere to do violence. She didn't know Envy had told you how to find us, she thought you tracked us. Me. I know you would never do any such thing, but I know you. She feels awful about it, now.
I sometimes forget how different other worlds are, or even the just the lives of others.
I wouldn't ask you to, I've already thought about this. I'll find some little out of the way place. You can use it whenever you feel like sleeping in a bed but don't want to rent a hotel room, I'll have a place to go when the house feels too crowded, and we'll have a place to be together without anyone else around.
But your telling them that I would not harm you has clearly done nothing.
[ Scar just assumes that she's tried. ]
I am well aware that people are just scared of me by default. I do not care about that, as long as it does not inhibit my being able to see you. That is all I want.
It's only come up now, after the fact. I know you'd never hurt me. It's a fact of life the same as grass being green or the sky being blue. I don't even think about it. It' never occurred to me until now that I needed to tell other people that.
Nothing is going to interfere with your seeing me. I won't let it.
And easier than throwing everyone else but Greed out of the house.
[She's only joking, the light tone of her voice making it obvious, but she wants Scar to understand her point. She won't let anything come between them.]
Though I do have one small question that I'd rather not make any assumptions on. I can't afford a two bedroom rental on top of my own house. What are you most comfortable with? A shared loft with two beds, a pull out in the living room...?
[Maybe just one bed for both of them, but she's not holding her breath. They did sleep together that one night, though....]
[ Assumptions. Yes. Scar offers a nod. They did sleep together that night, but... those had been extreme circumstances. It wasn't as if they had fallen asleep exactly like that. ]
Is there anything I can do?
[ Scar sounds a touch disheartened, at that. Lust always does so much. ]

I am not going back to that house. Another residence would be a good way to see you.

A place to go and be alone sounds... nice.

I'll start looking for a small place soon.

[ That doesn't solve everything, but it will at least be a start. Scar still needs to figure out how he's going to make it in this world at all. ]
[ Scar still seems gloomily than his usual self, though. ]
Thank you. For all of this.

A pull out is more than enough.
[ Sorry, Lust. ]

Would you help with the furniture?

[ One of Scar's greatest talents! Picking things up and putting them down. ]
Is there anything else?
