Does anyone know how to talk to people who... don't want to live?

Satsuki. She keeps talking about killing herself. She won't stop. [She bites her lip a little,

I don't think me and Ophion can keep her from it... [Her hands tighten about her cloak. She doesn't know how to help this woman, and she hates that feeling.]

She needs help.

It's not that easy. You have to convince someone they have a future they can be a part of.

Don't leave her alone if you suspect she might try. I've dealt with depression and suicide attempts before, I'll be right there.

[Private]

[canfindrope]

I'm trying. She won't listen to me.

[Warden Filter]

[canfindrope]

Ophion's watching her. [Yes, her giant snake. It's extremely intelligent.]

He won't let her kill.

[Warden Filter]

[moreincommon]

Okay. Where are they? Is she just talking about killing herself, or has she made any attempts?

[Warden Filter]

[canfindrope]

The infirmary.

She let someone kill her already.

[Private]

[truth_is_cold]

Then you have to show her.

It's an incredibly terrible feeling to think that you're all alone in the universe and there's no future ahead of you. [He knows this all too well.] But she's quiet.

[Private]

[canfindrope]

I've never done this before.

How can she not know?

[Warden Filter]

[moreincommon]

[And he is immediately on his way, professional to the end despite his concern.] How long has she been death tolling?

[Private]

[truth_is_cold]

Has she told you yet what it is that she's meant to do? [He sounds like he doesn't like her options, either. He never liked his.]

A day... we've been with her since she woke up.

[When he enters the infirmary, he'll be faced by a rather massive snake rearing up to face him head on - but he relaxes when he sees Red gesturing, sliding around her body and resting comfortably with his head on her shoulder.]

[When Mark gets there he shrinks back a bit from the snake – he doesn't really like confrontation, thanks – but he immediately relaxes when Ophion does and even gives him and Red a friendly wave.]

Hi there. Mark Lilly, don't think we've met before.

[spam]

[canfindrope]

Red; and... Ophion.

This is Satsuki. [She gestures.]

[itstopped]

You could tell her it's pointless, since the Admiral won't let her.

[technophilic]

[ Satsuki is practically pouting from her bed. ]

This is pointless.

[spam]

[moreincommon]

Hi, Satsuki.

If it's pointless, that means there's no harm in trying it, right?

[Private]

[canfindrope]

Just that she doesn't want to stop.

[spam]

[canfindrope]

[She steps back for this, hoping Mark Lily can say something she missed.]

[canfindrope]

She's already gotten herself killed, once.

[Private]

[truth_is_cold]

What she's meant to do is very destructive. But I should probably allow her to tell you about it.

[He hates betraying confidence, and he knows what that role feels like.]

[itstopped]

And the Admiral brought her back.

[spam]

[technophilic]

It is a waste of time and energy. You should not have brought me back.

[ She turns to glare at Red. ]

[canfindrope]

I know. But she still wants to do it again.

[Private]

[canfindrope]

What do you mean "meant to do"? [She's more concerned about that than the rst.]

[spam]

[canfindrope]

I won't leave you dead. [She's determined. She is not going down.]

[itstopped]

It's pointless.

[Private]

[truth_is_cold]

I still think I would rather you ask personally than I betray her confidence.

[canfindrope]

I don't think it will stop her.

[Private]

[canfindrope]

I'll ask. [She's frowning. She's curious - and determined.]
