As I said, why did it take me making it a big deal for you to get it!

[ Lillium is also antisocial, but he has an emotional/social braincell. He just doesn't know what to do with the knowledge or how to go about things. ]

You guys didn't consider a backup plan in case things went south?! All of you are behind bars! Imagine if this meant you all will be executed, too! Did you or anyone think about that?!

[ there were adults in this plan but lillium really is exploding here because nico was like oh why did you text me. ]

[ he just...goes quiet when lillium asks that and also sort of looks at will from across the aisle. ]

Can we talk about that when I'm not in jail? [ i.e. it's long and complicated and leave him alone. but then lillium continues and...yes. right. maybe there should have been a better backup plan? they sure are all behind bars.

hm. didn't exactly think through the whole execution thing though. so he kind of takes a step back and folds his arms over his chest to patiently wait it out. sort of. ]


...no, but...[ um... ] We kind of had a backup plan, but things went off the rails a little earlier than we thought.

[ Ugh... He was expecting a bit more yelling, but he calms down. Just a hand to his face, dragging down so that only his eyes show. Eyebrows knitting is the only show of what he might be feeling.

Is it frustration? Regret...
]

Sorry. I overreacted. [ Genuinely apologetic. ] What's done is done.

[ there would be yelling if lillium hadn't said what he said and now there is only withdrawing, kind of. he doesn't seem angry himself, more neutral and waiting to see how this goes. ]

...it isn't like I wouldn't have had the same reaction, I guess. [ debatable. nico has a short temper himself when it's pushed, but scenarios always make things different. ] We thought our plan and alternate route was good. So we went through with it, and we didn't expect the leaders to get called in to arrest us. What's done is done, and it won't happen again.

[ not like this, at least. they'll just be smarter next time and that implication is there. ]

[ stop... he is embarrassed to be yelling and getting emotional in public ]

I'm not your babysitter. You can do whatever you want.

[ TRIES TO BACKTRACK. Within reason. ]

I know that. [ nyeh. he is also embarrassed to be perceived as an idiot for having to have it spelled out. ] ...but it's better you came by to check anyway. I guess. Since I can't have my phone back for a while.

[ the embarrassment standoff ]

You're getting out tomorrow? [ It's what he assumed. ] Or...

That's what we've heard. Tomorrow morning. [ ... ] I'll come by the dorm first.
