Lucas Leavitt says ''You were right, Arthur. I was being fucking stupid. I was only going to get us killed. So I'm FIXING it.''
Arthur Evans says ''This ain't fixin' shit man besides yer fuckin' ego.''
Arthur Evans says ''It. Ain't. Worth it.''
Lucas Leavitt glares at Arthur, but then his head snaps to the side like he heard something. He shakes his head.
Lucas Leavitt says ''She's a *threat.*''
Lucas Leavitt says ''I'm *handling* it.''
Maddison '303' Whitney says ''This is retarded. You're not handling it, you're on some ego-suicidal rush. Men are so into this sort of shit. But you know what?''
Arthur Evans says ''Naw, man. She ain't a threat, that's what she wants you to think. We're fuckin' leavin' soon.''
Maddison '303' Whitney says ''It's not my fucking problem.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''We are.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''Real soon.''
Arthur Evans says ''Then come on then, man.''
Lucas Leavitt's tone is flat. "I'll meet you back at the inn."
Arthur Evans shifts his jaw from side to side, "We're either goin' back together or not at all."
Arthur Evans says ''I ain't walkin' off again.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''Arthur. I said I'm FINE.''
Arthur Evans says ''Tired of walkin' away.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''I-- I HAVE to DO THIS.''
Arthur Evans says ''You don't.''
Lucas Leavitt's voice is harsh, but he can see tears running from beneath Lucas's aviators. "I DO. I HAVE TO."
Arthur Evans stands, deeply exhaling, "It ain't gonna bring her back."
Lucas Leavitt says ''NOTHING will. Because *I KILLED her.*''
Lucas Leavitt says ''But I'll be damned if I let that BITCH say it to my face.''
Arthur Evans says ''That's bullshit, you know it. There ain't nothin' different that ya coulda done there to save her.''
Arthur Evans says ''Fuckin' thing swallowed those HORIZON agents like a snack.''
Arthur Evans says ''Morgan's prolly lookin' for our asses right fuckin' now, tryin' to get a bead on us.''
Arthur Evans says ''We need to head back.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''Then LET ME GO.''
Arthur Evans says ''No.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''I can DO THIS. PLEASE.''
Arthur Evans deeply exhales, biting his lower lip, "Naw man. They need you just as you need them."
Lucas Leavitt yells ''ARTHUR, PLEASE.''
Lucas Leavitt stomps his foot frustratedly.
Arthur Evans says ''Lucas, ya got three seconds man.''
[202 MHz] Morgan Hess says ''Makes a lot of sense... hiding once a consequence comes for you being a ditsy nice guy. Fuck off with wasting my time.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''Arthur. Just-- just *go.*''
Lucas Leavitt says ''Please.''
[202 MHz] Morgan Hess says ''Goodbye.''
[202 MHz] Lucas Leavitt says ''DON'T YOU FUCKING LEAVE.''
Arthur Evans raises his new rifle towards Lucas, "Don't."
Lucas Leavitt shakes with nervous energy. Desperation. Grief.
Lucas Leavitt says ''Arthur. I-- I have to. Please. Please.''
Arthur Evans says ''After all ya been through, ya ain't dyin' to some stupid bitch with a normal-ass gun, dawg.''
Arthur Evans says ''It ain't what I want.''
Arthur Evans says ''It ain't what the crew wants.''
Arthur Evans says ''It ain't what Demi woulda wanted.''
Arthur Evans says ''And deep down. It ain't what you want.''
Lucas Leavitt says ''I'm--''
Lucas Leavitt yells ''I'm--!''
Lucas Leavitt lets out a quiet sob. "Arthur. I can /do/ this. I can. You have to believe me. Please. Just this once. Let me fix this.
Arthur Evans says ''You can fix this by headin' back with me.''
Arthur Evans slowly lowers his rifle.
Lucas Leavitt's shoulders drop in defeat. He exhales slowly. "Okay. Okay..." he starts walking towards Arthur.
Arthur Evans eyes him cautiously, "She's fuckin' left anyways. Ain't no point in us gettin' spotted by a goddam Hunter or somethin'." He backs up slightly and tips his head towards the sewer entrance, "Let's get outta here, man."
Lucas Leavitt hesitates. But then he hears HER voice in his ear. "Little Coward," she whispers to him. He abruptly attempts to snatch the gun out of Arthur's grasp.
Arthur Evans blinks a few times, attempting to shove Lucas away with the heavy rifle.
Lucas Leavitt firmly plants his boot into Arthur's gut and pushes HARD, while pulling with both hands on the gun.
The rifle's sling slips over Arthur's head as Lucas pulls, using his entire body for leverage, "FUCK YOU DOIN'-?" He would lean forward in an attempt to get on top of Lucas.
Lucas Leavitt thrashes wildly with pure desperation, and brings the gun up and bashes Arthur on the chin with it.
Arthur Evans is bashed on the chin, stumbling backwards onto a knee, planting his hands on the ground, looking up at Lucas and shaking his head in disappointment, "Fuckin' go on, man. If this is what yer fuckin' /fix/ looks like, then keep goin'."
Lucas Leavitt stumbles backwards, holding the OICW still. His glasses were knocked further down his nose during the struggle, and Arthur can see his eyes are wide with a crazed, scared look. He looks down at the gun, and then abruptly throws it over the rock wall and BOLTS.
Arthur Evans just watches, his only movement being the shaking his head and yelling out, "FIX IT, THEN."
[202 MHz] Arthur Evans says ''Lucas is goin' to meet her, I fuckin' tried but he smashed me in the goddam jaw.''
[202 MHz] Lucas Leavitt says ''<wind rushes past the microphone. Lucas is clearly running, but his voice is still audible.> I'm sorry. I'm so fucking sorry, Arthur.''
