SAPPHIRE

[The room is circular and surrounded by a series of ionic columns, the floor and ceiling stretching overhead fashioned out of cracked, white stone. The area beyond the columns is pitch black, and the room itself is lit only by dimly flickering candles. The candles rest on top of a stone table, which sits in the middle of the room.

And next to the candles rest four numbered boxes]

[hissing through his teeth]

Thank you...

I have some painkillers too, though they'll take a bit to kick in.

[nods, and Nessa is bandaging it most likely]

That'll be appreciated.

[yes good, digging through her bag and handing over painkillers and the water jug]

[taking the painkillers and a swig of water, downing it quickly]

These games are my favorite.

[OW- HEY]

-- I was just stabbed in the ear, Apple.

I know, I was the one who stabbed you. But I didn't hit you on the ear too. And I'll hit you again if you say things like that.

...You don't understand.

I don't. But when you do understand me when I try to tell you things?

-- Have I ever struck you for it?

You do everything else!!

...What is "everything else"?

...This is a horrible situation to try and explain it, you know.

Then we'll wait until later.

[nods]

Thank you.
