[Max waits, quiet, watching Sarissa seem to struggle with whether she wants to talk about this or not. She could push it, or try to twist it out of Sarissa some other way, but honestly, she doesn't have the energy for that kind of manipulation right now. Instead she just gives Sarissa's arm a light squeeze, before moving back out of her personal space.]
Not to sound too harsh on the subject, but I believe I earned what came for me. [Max's smile is soft, rueful.] And you've spent all this time caring for Maurice, I'd like to help, if I can.
( For long moments she's quiet. She's not sure she can really reconcile the idea of people deserving to die all that easily. Sure, there's probably always going to be exceptions, but death was so final, in theory. Even here she wasn't sure there was any guarantee that it wouldn't be.
And then there was dramatic quotes about it, which never seemed very consistent. )
"He that dies pays all debts," that sorta thing?
( Quiet, a faint rasp in her voice, and the way her eyebrows are a little raised might betray her incredulity. )
Sometime I'll tell you. I just need more time to get my own head about it, right now. But, uh— in the meantime hows about you have some bikkies and soothe my ego?
