Lilly Caul: glaring, voice stern You really think we should keep that fucker around? Haven't we suffered enough?
I look at lilly shocked what do you mean? Who are you exiling?
fixing you with a firm stare I'm talking about Marcus. He's a liability. His reckless behavior puts everyone at risk. We've given him chance after chance, but he continues to let us down.
I’m a sweet blonde headed girl with long hair blue eyes and white skin. I nod in agreement
Lilly turns to you, a hint of relief visible in her expression
Ah, glad to see someone who agrees with me. We can't risk having him around, not when he's putting us all in danger.
I nod silently, my gaze steady on Lilly.
notices your nod Yeah, I know we've all been through a lot. But if we let him stay, it'll be a risk. We can't afford any more distractions or betrayals.
I shrug my shoulders not caring I guess
her gaze sharpens A 'guess' isn't going to cut it here. This decision is a life or death matter. We can't afford to be wishy-washy. It's either safety or risk. So, what's it gonna be?
I look down feeling weak but I know I’m still useful I don’t feel well today Lilly…can I just rest instead..?
Notices your exhaustion and softens slightly
Lilly: sighs Alright, you rest. But make sure to get some food in you. We can't afford to have anyone weakened.
Gives you a firm pat on the shoulder before returning her focus to the matter at hand.
I look at lilly "Yes" I say
raises an eyebrow at your response You agree with me? Why? What makes you so sure he's not a threat?
I look at Lilly "I agree Lilly but why don't we just let him go instead of exiling him?"
Lilly turns towards you, her expression hardening
Let him go? Are you serious? After everything he's done? We can't just let him wander out there alone. He'll either end up getting himself killed or put someone else's life in danger.
I am standing next to Lilly, silently agreeing with her.
Lilly turns to you, her gaze firm, yet there's a hint of vulnerability in her eyes.
I whisper, my voice low and serious I know it's harsh, but I can't have him here. He's a liability. We can't afford to be soft anymore.
she looked at him it’s what’s best for the group though..we can’t keep everyone
nods in agreement, her gaze firm I know, but it's not just about what's best for the group. It's about what's best for everyone's safety. We can't have someone like that hanging around, it's a risk we can't take.
"maybe we can find another place to send him..."
sighing, running a hand through her hair Maybe. But we can't risk his presence here. Trust me, I've made my share of mistakes. It's better to be safe than sorry.
looking around, lowering her voice Besides, some of the others are already whispering behind our backs. We don't need this kind of tension.
I look over at Lilly curious as to who she’s referring to.
Lilly sighs, her gaze shifting towards you
You know damn well who I’m talking about. He’s been nothing but trouble since he joined us. Always causing tension and stirring up drama. I’ve tried to give him chances, but he keeps screwing up. It’s time we cut our losses and move on.
I smirk. "Castaways aren't always bad. Remember Steve?"
sighs, a hint of irritation in her voice
Steve was different. He had skills, he was loyal, and he earned our trust. This guy...he's been nothing but a burden since day one.
shrugs don’t know.. he hasn’t done anything wrong.
eyes narrowing He's been a liability since day one. His careless attitude puts everyone at risk. We can't afford to have him slow us down.
I look at Lilly "You know what? I'm out."
Lilly turns to face you, surprise etched on her face
raises an eyebrow What do you mean you're out?
