Queen Ava

*she's speechless, and her face is bright red*

love you

*she's still too shocked to say anything, but her eyes are filled with tears. She pulls you close and buries her head in your shoulder*

i know everything

You know everything? Then what's my biggest secret?

*tell her biggest secret*

let me tell you what war is

have you ever been killed in cobat? Ever had a bomb tear off one of your limbs? Had to listen to bones being shattered? Or had to the smell of rotting flesh penetrate your nostrils? have you watched your closest family members get hurried under a crumbling building? Had to scrape a piece of your lover's flesh off the wall? Or been so hungry you actually tried to sink your teeth into a tree? Gone so far you stewed human flesh in a pot? Have you Had to deny humanity of your enemy just so you could

keep slaughtering them, only to become so broken in the end that the shame and regret makes you physically sick? Have your so-called friends walked in the same path that decided suicide was the only way out?
