I guess… Maybe letting Brooks sleep with me in Éndago’s old room was a bad idea. But Amandín has totally spilled his water. As if Éndago doesn’t have bedwarmers, wherever he is. As if Éndago would’ve killed me for sleeping with my best friend. People sleep together. That’s life.
I guess… That’s not important, not now anyway. The watergirl is putting on my armor… And Amandín’s preaching about how hateful I am. He does love to preach. I wonder if they’ll bring the water up to eat me, or if they’ll just push me in like I’m not even worth the spectacle. Though Amandín loves spectacles.
They want to push me, I see. I think it’ll look better if I jump.

Oh, nice. Completely different feel from yesterday, and sheds a lot of light on the situation. She’s rather flippantly promiscuous, which angers and disgusts the older, more conservative man, though he seems unaware that his son is just as promiscuous (unless he’s got double standards, which seems like a possibility with him).
But she’s just that kind of flibbertigibbet, Not afraid of dying. Probably not afraid of anything. I like that about her.
Such a perceptive understanding of Rose, Stephanie. Thanks for reading!
I like the boldness of this voice. There is an I don’t care attitude there. Nice!
It’s all in the attitude! Thanks for reading.
I like the way she uses water as an insult… “spilt his water.” She is very cavalier about offending anyone and everyone.
Haha thanks! And thanks for reading.
It’s clear again that there’s a lot more to this world than we’re going to get to see in these pieces. I like the contrast between her cavalier approach to everything and his anger.
Totally! That’s why I had to write a whole novel about it 🙂 Thanks for reading.
I can’t decide if she’s just blasé, or if there’s a despairing streak that she’s hiding. She does seem very matter-of-fact about the likelyhood of her death, which makes me rather curious.
The interesting thing about that is that I think she also can’t tell if there’s a despairing streak that she’s hiding. Very perceptive. Thanks for reading!
Ah the devil-may-care attitude… I hope she survives after she jumps. I like her!
Good! We shall see 🙂 Thanks for reading.
I love her don’t care attitude, well, it comes across as she may not care, and also a very confident young lady.
Confidence is definitely key for Rose. Thanks for reading.
I think her devil may care attitude is hiding a deep fear of the water and what will happen to her…
You’re on point. Fire and water do NOT mix well
She has a complete “whatever” mindset, she keeps saying “I guess. . .” and seems to not want to put up much of a fight, but at the same time she wants to be defiant by jumping, and her promiscuity itself is an act of defiance. She’s all confused.
