[ here the two of them are... meeting in the solarium just before the darkness of night. it would be very romantic if they weren't going to talk about some things that are decidedly unromantic. ]
I'm sorry to call you out on such short notice but there's something that I want to speak to you about and I don't know how much time we have to debate about it.
[ especially since. well.
many things are in motion and sabo doesn't want to spend any time questioning himself or the actions that he needs to take. ]
[ A romantic gathering for the two of them, in some kind of alternate universe where they weren't indeed about to chat in regards to death and all that fun stuff. But here is where they will dive into such pleasant things and nothing not at all that will cause nightmare scenarios.
Right? Right. ]
May as well.
What is it?
[ Blade, of course, doesn't bother wasting too many words for anything, getting straight to the point. He's always been like that (unless somehow he's explaining something for whatever reason... ]
[ would the two of them even be romantically involved in some alternate universe? this sends fear deep into my soul of what that could potentially imply. that said, however, sabo will get straight to the meat of things. ]
I want to give my wish to Ish so that he'll have everything he needs in order to save Norna and end this endless cycle.
[ he says this with his whole ass chest, and he should definitely start explaining himself but he'll do that shortly. he needs to paint the full picture for blade. ]
However, it's not something that I can do on my own, unfortunately. I've been trying to take matters into my own hands and see if it was possible...but he stops me every time I try.
[ sabo will casually remove some of his jabot for blade to see some tattoos circling his neck. ]
Blade's more or less going to be listening to this aspect, and making an expression when he hears this. Especially since he isn't going to be immediately jumping for joy at the prospect of helping this fool of a clown. ]
[ Blade's brows raise as the twofold statement hits him in earnest as he realizes what Sabo means in that moment. But he isn't expecting the weird new tattoo set up? ]
...Taking matters into your own hands.
What's this? You tried to kill yourself and he stopped you?
And if you're looking to fulfill his wish, how exactly do you plan to offer up a sacrifice if you can't kill yourself? How are you sure this will work?
Explain more.
[ Blade's hands are clenched tightly into fists. He...doesn't have much care about his own life. It's true. Though, this week he has started to care more about it - to see if he might truly embrace living. So even if those feelings still dwell in them - look that kind of depression doesn't get whisked away in an instant - it is still shocking to know what would have resulted if he had tried... ]

given sabo's plan, it's a permanent suicide cw for the whole ass thread
[ right. right...from the start. time is of the essence but sabo needs to not sound like a crazed person. ]
Do you remember what I said when I addressed everyone about the Akashic Record? About how Ish has been trying to open it in order to accomplish his goals?
[ sabo is more than aware of All Of the Words that he spoke that day but of all things he talked about, those records were the most important out of everything. ]
That's the key, and my wish is to grant him access to it so that he doesn't have to keep "farming" people—"resources". I've been trying to use my life as "payment" for that since I would never sacrifice anyone here. [ he sighs. ] However, he's forbidden for using wishes for himself so even if I defer my wish to him, it would be meaningless.
[ what goes unsaid is, also, how ish's forbidden for hurting them given the fact that sabo has very clearly offered himself on a platter for ish to mcmurder and he hasn't. ]
But, he doesn't take the moment to affirm, merely allow his silence to speak as an answer, and an awaiting gaze, for the blond to say more.
The Akashic Record did stand out as more important, than anything else indeed. ]
He's rejecting your offer. I thought he didn't care about how anyone's life was spilled in the name of his little 'dance'.
[ ... ]
You have more to say. I'm listening.
[ Blade feels like he hasn't quite reached the point where he can assume much of anything; particularly since this is turning out to be quite a revelation in of itself. Not the portion about farming people; lives or emotions and whatnot being used as fuel seemed like a possibility. ]

I'm sorry to call you out on such short notice but there's something that I want to speak to you about and I don't know how much time we have to debate about it.

SO TRUE...
I want to give my wish to Ish so that he'll have everything he needs in order to save Norna and end this endless cycle.
[ he says this with his whole ass chest, and he should definitely start explaining himself but he'll do that shortly. he needs to paint the full picture for blade. ]

And why would we help him now—
