[ david snorts as he grabs his bag and swings it onto his shoulder, wincing when it hits his back. claudette's probably gonna be mad when he gets back and she sees he managed to wreck two whole shirts. ]
Real kind of you.
[ god he hopes that thing isn't slinking around in the dark out there. or some other killer ready to get the drop on somebody already hurt, but david feels like he can deal with that a lot easier. either way he lifts a hand in a tired goodbye and heads out the door. ]
[ kinder than he could be, evan thinks, giving david a very slight nod as he heads back into the darkness and then out into the forest. no traps go off, at least. and there's no immediate snarling or screaming or sounds of fighting. nobody - no thing - waiting outside for revenge.
once he's sure david's gone, he reaches up and feels around in his mouth for another tooth that was coming more and more loose the more he talked. it's bloody and hurts his jaw to get rid of, but like hell he's going to put up with it. knowing his luck, he'll be stuck with the pain of all this shit for hours yet before his next trial.
maybe he should have let that thing kill him. maybe he should have let david kill him. would have solved the problem, at least. but neither of them needs the ego boost, or at least david doesn't.
