[ For...probably one of the first times since he's been here, Emil actually sounds a bit unhappy when he speaks to the journal (and, you know, the castle as a whole). Probably should have filtered this, but he never remembers about those. ]

I'm sorry, everyone-- I guess that this curse I have can't really be fixed... If that scares anyone, I understand. I'll be fine. After all, I'm kind of used to it by now.

Um, anyway...I just thought I'd let you know about that.

[ He will uh. Try and stay strong. After a pause, quietly: ]

So that's the truth...

[ He pretty much killed his sister. ]

[whitecovered]

Indeed.

...I'm sorry.

[The words feel strange to speak, as Nier was always the one to say such things. And no, we killed your sister.]

[ Well, as far as he knows, petrification is still instadeath. ]

It's all right.

[ More to Weiss than himself; it's not Weiss's fault for telling him this. ]

[whitecovered]

...Hmm?

[...come again?]

[siebter.livejournal.com]

You don't have to be sorry, I mean.

[whitecovered]

Ah.

[...this entire conversation is incredibly awkward, so he's just...going to observe what Emil does next. And let out a sigh he didn't even he was holding back.]

[ Pretty much just lean against whatever surface-- probably a wall-- is closest and hug his knees to his chest. He's not crying, but he mostly just looks a bit lost, if anything. ]

[whitecovered]

[As he remembered, Emil had basically the same reaction even when faced with his skeleton sister that ate him. Though he will mutter something to himself.]

...Such is life.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

[ But it shouldn't be. ]

...Weiss?

[whitecovered]

Mmmm...yes?

[siebter.livejournal.com]

Did everyone else find out too? I mean, when you did.

[whitecovered]

[and because canon never explicitly states whether Emil actually told Kainé about him being a weapon and she was busy being petrified at the time...]

It appears so.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

...what do they think about it?

[whitecovered]

It made no difference. Above all, you are still Emil to us.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

Really?

[whitecovered]

Indeed.

At any rate, you would hardly be the first member of our merry little band to have issues. And I'm sure it is the same here.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Weiss.

[whitecovered]

[...WELP. now or never. time to get this all out of the way.]

Is there anything else you wish to know?

[siebter.livejournal.com]

I don't know...it's all kind of surprising.
