Because you did nothing wrong and deserve better.

[siffriend]

[ (Boy, a lot of people think you do.)

Siffrin shrugs, leaning back on their hands. ]

... I can't say a lot. Contract agreement. [ And whatever vagueness The Witch gives them, but, this is primarily it. ] But I don't want you to interfere. He might do worse to you, since he's a man of his word.

[ So at least no one else will be involved. Just like Siffrin asked. No one else, only them, only them and... them.

A beat, and then a little more awkwardly: ]

Thanks for the offer, though. Um. I do appreciate it.

[ Even if they don't seem gung-ho. ]

[Contracts...awful.]

Last week I got this medicine that's some kinda painkiller. If you want, I can give it to you.

[Even if Siffrin dies he doesn't have to suffer through as much pain. That's Bradley's thinking at least.]

[siffriend]

[ (...

You think of how painful some of your deaths have been.

Actually,) ]

I'll take it. I've experienced some pretty painful ones before, but I don't know what to expect from The Witch's game.

[He takes the medicine vial out of his pocket and sets it down in front of Siffrin.]

Well I hope this helps make it less painful at least. What kinda entertainment do you want for the rest of the night?

[siffriend]

[ They are Not going to remember to pop this. ]

Any good at cards?

[perfectpower]

[Unfortunate.]

Heh, you have no idea. I didn't make all of my money from bein' a bandit.

[siffriend]

[ Imagine if they had to every loop. ]

Oh, just a couple coins to start off your gambling? [ Little tease! ] I've been told I have a mean poker face. As a fair warning.

[ Just not around people they're into. But that's neither here nor there. ]
