by your own home. was losing it not enough?

when met with wildfire, his first instinct is to do what he can to quell it, but he knows it has spread too far and wide.

"i'm happy," he says, more so for himself.

"it's not your job to save me." not anymore. 

she's thought of the consequences, but how intangible they feel when she's already had so much taken from her. exile? she's already in exile. 

"i'd rather be exiled and my people safe than to have them put in his crossfire." her lips thin. "you didn't witness littleroot."

"alex, i haven't been their leader in years," she says bitterly. even though it had been under the influence of numerous drinks, freya had still seen her city as a civilian. people were joyous, celebrating their staving off of imminent destruction. life hadn't stopped when sootopolis fell to rocket. 

life hadn't stopped for the city when she lost her home.

"what would you have me do? take back the council seat? you know i can't do that." not with in the crossfire. she won't do that.

[attr="class","stonemain"]"not commit atrocities would be a start."

he fires back, quick to still his tongue after.

"we operate under a very distinct set of rules — rules that separate us from them. we'd be no different otherwise."

his hand reaches out for her arm as though it'd ever be enough to pull her off the path she finds herself on.

"don't kill him, freya. please."

"i've never been afraid to be the monster." he had been there, after what they did to moxie. he had been there to hear that woman's bubbling, gurgling screams as her skin burst under heat. as her bones popped and freya stole the rest of her life out from under her. 

she does not move away from his touch, but she does look up at him sadly. 

"do we? do they? he's in one of the highest positions of power in the league and people are still dying at his hand. that's always been the true difference between us and rocket.

"rocket doesn't play pretend."

but he fears she has strayed too far for him or anyone to ever pull her back. his heart hurts because of it.

"what is right anymore, alex?" she says with a laugh, eyes just a tad glassier than they were a moment before. "what is death anymore? is it so terrible a condemnation now?"

he is living, breathing proof that death is not the end. and maybe it's callous of her to belittle his time in the afterlife, but she's losing it. for so long, she's wanted him here, standing in front of her, touching her, saving her

she draws back from him. frost curls as she exhales.

"i'll tell you before i do it," she says, looking away. "the pieces haven't come together yet...there's still time." but that's all she can offer him.

he draws back from her as well, sighing. it seems there is no victory here—only bitter defeat.

he pulls away, a mirror image. the cold is lonely and it is isolating, but not as much as his question. guilt tumbles over indecision as she grapples with just how much to tell him. to speak her deals with the devil aloud is to admit to her failings, of just how much she's walked into the shadows. 

"i can't tell you that," she says because they are no longer on the same side. not entirely. 

"but i won't be alone."
