[devoutish]

Mm, yeah.

I'm gonna be aware of what area he's in, for a time. We'll avoid his buildings.

[bywolves]

I appreciate it. [ His tone is warmer, here. Shh. ]

[devoutish]

Fucking hell. Life here, eh?

[It's the worst.]

[bywolves]

At least we're alive.

[devoutish]

Yeah.

[But for how much longer?]

Take what good you can get, where you can fucking get it..

[bywolves]

[ Alfie gets an affirmative noise as a response.

And a while later, at least an hour, after Royce has dragged himself to curl up for the rest of the day, Alfie gets a very quiet and solemn: ] Thank you.

[devoutish]

Yeah.

It would've been harder here, without you.

[bywolves]

[ Royce doesn't know what to say to that. It takes him a while. ]

I've spent my whole life staying alive out of spite. Whatever gods there may or may not be have done a lot of kicking mud in my face. I refuse to let death win. [ A beat, and then - he sounds awkward about this, but it is genuine: ] It would be difficult without you here as well.

[devoutish]

You know that I understand that way of thinking.

[He hasn't faced as much personal persecution as Royce, but he's always been very aware of it.]

[bywolves]

I do. Which is why you're hearing this and nobody else is.

[devoutish]

Yeah. I've told you things I haven't told anybody else here, too.

[bywolves]

That trust doesn't go unnoticed or unappreciated.

[devoutish]

Neither does yours.

Ahval, merea. Yeah?

[bywolves]

Ahval, merea. Yeah.
