[Horst is awake after the event ends, and for the first time all week he heads outside. He hasn't had his PCD on, or if he has he didn't answer it. And in fact he's not planning to now, but the verdammt thing is in his jacket pocket.

He has Basil the stuffed rabbit under one arm, and the sock puppet held in a fist. He fills it with a few rocks, ties it off, and throws it so far the PCD wouldn't have been able to see it even if it had been angled in its direction.

The feed times out before he can be bothered to realize it's on.]

You know what's the first thought I had this morning? At least Lucifer won't be able to use her anymore to get to me, and use me. [She snorts softly.] As if he truly needed that.

Alice made me stronger. Because I felt I needed to be strong for her. ...I'm pathetic because I'm scared of the Devil and scared of myself. So different from people like Rei who have confidence in themselves and in their abilities to change things. [The last part is said so softly, it's hard to hear it. And she looks him in the eye when she says so.] As for me... I need people to trust me and believe in me to believe in myself. It's pathetic.

[Horst pulls her closer] Rei isn't confident, she's arrogant. She gets people hurt or killed because of it. She has her insecurities and she overcompensates because she won't admit to them. Don't aspire to be like her or I will be forced to drown you in the lake.

...Besides. You face losing yourself completely. She doesn't. Of course you need someone to believe in you, someone to tell you something different than the doom you've heard your whole life.

[Raven lets him pull her close. She clutches his shirt, and nuzzles his neck, kissing the bite scar there. Moments like this with Horst seem like the only constant in her life here. And she'll always aspire to be like girls like Rei, Sango or even Starfire back home. But Horst loves her and won't have any of that. So she just snorts at his threat about drowning her, nipping his jaw.] Nein, das tust Du nicht.

...Hmm, yes. Tell me something different. Tonight I feel like believing anything.
