[i][color=d1fffc]Rael just...[/color][/i]

[i][color=d1fffc]How [b]dare[/b] she?![/color][/i]

Alja murmured to Kalie: "[color=d1fffc]Sorry about this.[/color]"

Then a growl began to build in her throat. She did her best to swallow it back down, but her voice was still burred by it. Her control over her accent slipped as she spoke, and it rasped out in an aggressive, guttural Edinburgh brogue:

"[color=d1fffc]Oi, Rael. [i]Bitch[/i]. Quit'cher shit-talkin, ay? Jes' cuz ya don' seem to feel emotion like the rest'a us don' mean ya gotta take yer [i]sociopathy[/i] out on someone who's [i]clearly[/i] no' gonna respond to it well.[/color]"

Her brows furrowed and she stood, getting into the smaller woman's face as her frustration and fear began to boil over. She had a [i]headache,[/i] god damnit, and she didn't want to listen to this shrimpy little bitch talk shit for one second longer. "[color=d1fffc]I mean, [i]come on![/i] LOOK at her![/color]" She motioned to Kalie--Dawn--in the beginnings of a full mental breakdown. "[color=d1fffc]What're ya tryin' to accomplish? Makin' her feel even worse? Or ya think yellin' at her like that is gonna make this BETTER somehow? Ya seem ta forget, Rael,[/color]" she continued, voice steadily rising in volume even as she tried to clamp down on it, "[color=d1fffc]this has never been [i]real[/i]. How old d'ya think she is, hmm?[/color]"

Eventually, she couldn't do it anymore. Couldn't hold herself back. And she [i]thundered[/i] at Rael: "[color=d1fffc]It's always been a [i]game[/i] ta her, goddamnit! D'ya think she's ever seen a man die violently? Been in the same room when it happened? Heard his loved ones screamin'? She wants ta be a [i]teacher,[/i] for Chrissakes! I dinnae what kinda pampered life you've lived out where ya think it's alright to yell at someone for that![/color]"

With some effort, she crushed her voice back down and sat heavily, this time on the opposite side of Kalie, between the two of them. "[color=d1fffc]I dinnae--I just don't know what you're trying to accomplish.[/color]" A heavy sigh. "[color=d1fffc]So piss back off, ay? I'd rather not have any more bad blood between us than there needs ta--to be.[/color]"
