Would you rather be dead? ( a cutting edge to his voice, yet that impassive smile remains unwavering. )

I'm not as fuckin' benevolent as you think I am, mate. If it wasn't for this game, do you think I would waste my energy resurrecting any of you? ( give him a fuckin' break. ) You could stay rotting in a freezer for all I care.

( also like who the fuck is charles? too bad he doesn't give af. )

Maybe I would.

[ The words come out sharp, and bitter, before he can swallow them back. Forcing himself to breathe, Erik takes a step back, trying to reign in his powers and calm himself down. It’s harder, at the moment, and makes his skin prickle.

It’s all too much. He shouldn’t be here. He -

He’s meant to be dead.

Forcing himself to breathe in and out, he takes a step back. ]

What do I have to do? Because of this bond.

( does he look like he has all the answers, lehnsherr? )

You don't have to do shit. ( hate to say it, but— ) This is new for me too. I need time to look into it. The side effects. The conditions. How it all works. Bringing the dead back to life breaks so many fuckin' rules.

( as much as he enjoys pushing the limits of black magic, resurrection is one area that he has never even humored because the consequences are bound to be dire. )

All I know is that you're bound to me now. ( he hates the way that sounds. ) And without that connection, you may as well just be another corpse lying in the morgue. ( it's annoying, but it isn't inconvenient as far as he's aware. ) The rest, if there is a rest, will be worked out in due time.

( they're officially in trial and error territory bby )

For now, just live your life. I have no interest in what you do here.

[ Erik almost snarls, a little dangerous and deadly given his own anger and frustration, but he resists the urge. There are more important things to do right now - like find out what happened to Parisa, to Francesca, to make sure Charles is alright, to return to his side.

This bond is annoying, but survivable. For now. ]

Figure it out.

[ Scowling, he turns to storm out of the room, disinterested now. ]
