#philiah dropped the fic about informant dying and ohh man. oh man (head in my hands) im actually still a little bothered that.

[arsene-fixates]

seeker when they couldn’t look at informant properly after going back in time and fixing the ancient tree for a week or so

when they purposefully leave out the detail that informant bled out as the werewolf back then when informant asks what happened before they reversed time

informant and wondering if he did something wrong because he notices the upset look in their eyes whenever he meets their gaze but he doesn’t want to talk to them since he thinks they’re upset with him

There's something in the way that the seeker (me) didn't have the time to properly grieve his death because they had to immediately get back to helping out the other townspeople, the announcment of his death only being a fleeting mention, never to be said again.

i wish they wrote about how informant felt after being told that he died since it was only just as simple as

i think it'd hurt them because he really doesn't understand the weight of it.

A man who was supposed to be dead, now alive and breathing right in front of them. They bless the soil, for the magic that exists in the city, because they wouldn't know what to do if they couldn't reverse time.

its only them and the other magic holders that remember what happened previously and they're burdened to keep it to themselves because the other magic holders aren't ... they just don't seem like the type of people they'd tell their problems to.

they wouldn't crack to tell him that he died until they wake up from a nightmare where they're back in that timeline where he does i think

i don't know if it would make him despise the lycanthropy in him more because, it was the thing that killed him in the first place, if he hadn't turned, i'm certain that he would have lived.
