[VIDEO]☘ do not forget what we can not forgive
[ Gráinne doesn't cry. So when she makes a call today with the foreign device, she's quiet and unmoving, with the darkened silhouette of the hotel behind her. Only those who have passed through the doors of the building may notice she's been there since sunset. ]
The moon is unusually bright tonight. [ Oh, she knows exactly what that means. She's been told to stay indoors during the Full Moon, but after last month, she's not exactly going to listen. ] Strange occurrences happen during such, right? The behavior of others change significantly and they act in a manner that is abnormal...
[ She cuts herself off as her head lazily rolls to the side. Shortly after, the hand holding her phone falls to her side and while she holds it tightly as a Shadow approaches her rapidly. No, she doesn't seem to be frightened in the slightest as she remains stationary. Suddenly there's a woman in dark clothing moving out in front of her to blast it away with brilliant ice shards. Turning around, she gives what appears to be a disappointed scowl before fading away. ]
The lady of shadows seems displeased as well. It must be an all too familiar sting in her chest too.
[ For the rest of the duration of the Dark Hour, Gráinne can be found in the same place she's stood for hours, batting away any Shadows that approach. It seems as though she doesn't have any fight left in her tonight and at times, she may appear easily overrun. ]

Hey! Hold on! I'm coming to help.

[ Maybe she wanted to feel some pain. Maybe there's a twisted part of her that wants to make Diarmuid cry with her death. Maybe she's frightened of living in this world without him. Her lack of appreciation is obvious as she twirls on her heels to face him, neglecting the Shadows moving in on their prey. ]
My business is my own. Refrain from getting involved or else.
Re: action;
[He slashes at one of the shadows, splitting it in twain as he advances to stand by her side. Saving people is what he does, even if they don't like it.]
You're obviously outnumbered here so your protests are useless. I'm not going anywhere.
action;
[ Tsunderes. Archer is drowning in them. ]
action;
[Tsunderes. It had to be tsunderes. He takes a more defensive stance, ready to attack any shadow that approaches.]
How long have you been out here? You should know better than to go out during when it's like this and you're exhausted.

[Always in dick mode, Archer is clearly teasing her. He slashes at a shadow that makes the mistake of coming to close to him.]
action;
Wearied state... Do I look that bad? [ She's been trying to hide it. ] I do believe my husband abandoned me to fend for myself in this strange place. I could have misunderstood though..

When he almost reached the hotel, he then saw a woman trying to fight the Shadows.
From there, his instincts took over, causing him to just jump in the way of an attack a Shadow is about to inflict towards the girl.]

Do you wish to die, lad?
no subject
[...Did she just.
Well. This is awkward.]
But you were about to get hit, and-
[That other woman appeared WHAT IS GOING ON HERE.]
no subject
[ Scathach makes quick work of the Shadow easily enough before disappearing to leave the pair to their conversation. ]
Have you not one of your own?
no subject
[This is awkward for him...!]

Well, yes, but its not as easy as you make it seem to be.

[He still. Looks sheepish at this turn of events.]

Unfortunately, I don't know much about these full moon situations. But if they cause the behaviour of others to change, it is possible for them to affect the actions of you or others. Considering this, I would say it is best to trust nothing during these days.

[ While she's not open to readily admit the failure of her marriage, she's not all too eager to accept that there was hope otherwise for it. With a sigh, she'll flippantly dismiss the remark. ]
And who are you then to give such sound advice?
Video
...Liquid. And you are?

A pleasure.

What language do you usually speak?
Video
[ A very ancient form of it, but the gist of it remains the same. ]
When I speak, sometimes my words come out completely wrong too.
[video]
Have you really been there all night...? Regardless, I haven't noticed anything particularly strange this month.
[until now, anyway.]
[video]
Mm, I didn't notice it truly. [ A sigh. ] How droll. I thought we were mistaken, but the moon is bright...
[video]
...well, I suppose if you can handle it, it's not worth drawing attention to. Though... I found the fact that nothing seems to be happening in that regard to be somewhat odd as well. I have heard that there have been months that don't directly affect people's mental states-perhaps this is one of them?
[...though the one he heard about involved zombies or something, which would suck if it happened again.]
[video]
Mm, perhaps you are right. I don't like it very much though. Have you felt strange during this time or are you completely of the right mind?

Naturally this means any shadows in his path, as he leisurely walks towards the Bay View Hotel, and by association Grainne, will be kill-stolen.]
'Evening, lass.
[Either he's so dense as to not realize something's going on, or he's acting as-usual to avoid rubbing salt in whatever wounds she may have.]
[Naturally, the douchebag left his phone elsewhere, so the only clue he has as to what's going on is Grainne's current, less-than-thrilled stance.]
[action]
Are you always out this late? [ An innocent question and hopefully it takes the conversation a direction opposite of her. ] Or is tonight a special occasion?
[action]
...It's like you guessed, though. Some old habits are hard to break. Keeping an eye on others, even in a roundabout way like this, is one of them.
[action]
You honor me with your words and your presence. [ An understanding nod follows with his words. ] Well, many appreciate it I am sure.
