Her voice echoes in the quiet household, and Paxton just feels cold. Not numb. Never numb. No matter how much he wanted to be. It's a cold fury that defrosts. The patience granted to Eris by virtue of being his sister; his last known kin. The person he had searched for for years; his reason for living. With every word she screams hurt and angry, it shreds more of is patience. Bit by bit. [break][break] He's frozen as she pelts him, and he knows- he's read enough to understand things she doesn't. And maybe that's the miscommunication. Maybe that's the problem. But at the same time. Had Chu-e Choi not sacrificed his life for her on the grounds she would be safe? Be protected? Be normal? Allowed to be a child. Allowed to heal. Allowed to grow and escape the conflict Hoenn faced? [break][break] paxton concordas hated that man. Even now, he waited with baited breath for the chance to see him. The chance to strangle him for taking her. A curse and a blessing all at once. But for all his hatred, for all his pain when she called him 'pa', he could admit that delivering Eris to the League was the one thing he'd done right. It's where she belonged. [break][break] "Eris." and his voice cuts through the screaming, with an unnatural level of calm. His eyes glint like sharpened steel. He addresses every grievance briefly, because there is much to get through. "The attack against you was tragic, but avoidable. You may not understand but this house was your safety. You were to stay here, supervised. You were not to leave unescorted. That is how you were meant to be kept safe. You left, because you overestimated your own abilities in the wake of Chu-e Choi giving up his life for you. The only fatherly thing he's ever done for you." [break][break] He clenches his fists because he hates having to grant that bastard the right for anything. "There were many factors that could've deescalated the situation, but it doesn't change the fact that you shouldn't have been there alone. That falls solely on you, not the League." Because that was the point of supervision. To avoid this. He didn't know the League's original agreement though. He only knew the procedures they had in place for these situations. And he knows somewhere along the way, those procedures were forgotten. [break][break] "You'd shoot me too if you were told to... I know you would..."
[break][break] It stings. It hurts in a way he knows he will analyze and pick at for years to come in the middle of the night. He will never forget this. His own sister thinking he would shoot her should they order him too. He doesn't think he would. He doesn't think he could. But that doesn't matter. She thinks he can. [break][break] And that's what breaks him, and any chance he has of making her understand. [break][break] That's what makes everything fall into place. The big reveal he had suppressed after their reunion. The reality that perhaps, his little sister had died along with his parents all those years ago and all he had left was her ghost. He doesn't know her just as much as she didn't know him. Too much time had passed. And when she asks him to suppress his hate? His sister would never ask this of him. She would never ask him to hold back from those that had hurt him, her, them. And though PALKIA had taken the scars of his own past from him, his hand still goes to his throat. He thinks about that place that he may be forever stuck in. Back in Kanto, clawing at an Enforcer to stay alive. But he has to answer he eventually. [break][break] "I will defer to Commissioner dahlia goode , when it comes to Rocket defectors. However, should she permit lethal force, I will do everything in my power to destroy every Rocket threat I encounter." his words brim with conviction that couldn't be swayed. [break][break] "And you. You are in no position to make any demands of me, or the League. Your guardian lost everything to give you the chance at a normal life. This home was a privilege, not a punishment." he gets up, pushes in the chair, and glances around one last time at the home before returning his attention to Reiner and then his trainer. [break][break] "Much how my visits were a privilege granted to me. Due to your perceived threat, and our relation to each other, my relationship with you has been considered a liability. Going forward, I can no longer contact you or see you, unsupervised. I am barred from becoming your legal guardian, or your escort." He makes sure he has his coat, his papers, the few he's brought with him. "Today was my last visit, in order to update you in regards to me." [break][break] "That's all. I'll take my leave now, Eris." [break][break]
