Paci turns on their heel and stares at Felix, who radiates an aura of fury despite being bound and unable to move. Her eyes are glued to the floor, and xe pointedly avoid looking at Paci. “What?”
There’s silence, but for their heavy breaths, the slight swish of Paci’s tail against the floor, and the shuffling of Felix’s feathers as she breathes, in and out.
“What- why would I do that?” Paci demands, tail pausing in its motion. They step closer, mouth open in slight surprise.
“You’ve left me for dead anyways! Just finish it. Or is that how you live with yourself? By denying what you’ve done?”
The words stop Paci in her tracks. Star freezes, eyes wide, and grasps for words, but the words she needs are hiding, and so she stays silent.
Felix scoffs. “You haven’t even realized, have you? Haven’t thought about me. You’re just off living a fairytale with your stupid Divorce Anon.”
Paci’s voice comes out barely a whisper. “Felix, I…”
“Don’t tell me you ‘didn’t realize,’” Felix snarls, finally turning to look at Paci. Xyr face is contorted in a scowl. “Don’t… Don’t tell me you care. Not anymore.”
Paci’s ears flatten against their head and star seems to shrink slightly in on themself. “I care! Of course I c-”
“Don’t try to lie to me!” Felix snaps, then pauses and frowns slightly. “Sorry,” xe adds, a bit softer.
Paci starts to laugh, sighing once she finishes. Felix frowns, and opens her mouth to comment on it, but Paci beats her to it. “Gods, we’re so broken.”
“Yeah,” Felix mutters. “Now will you get me out of this damn chair?”
