( the sight of tara alone is already enough to spark the embers of rage inside of karlach. she looks so frightened and karlach finds that to be an unforgivable offence. no one should be making her friend so upset.
then karlach processes her words.
"they've taken him."
"they've taken him."
"THEY'VE TAKEN HIM."
her face twists into a scowl, sharp with anger. she can barely pull her thoughts together. tara hadn't said much about what happened, hadn't explained why this happened, hadn't explained why the paladins would betray one of their own like this. a reasonable person might have more questions to ask.
karlach doesn't. no reasoning would suffice for kind of betrayal. it'd be a waste of her time to hear it. )
No, the fuck they're not.
( she says, the flames along her body expanding like sharp spikes across her skin. karlach has no qualms cutting through that entire armada until she either has her wizard back or there's no one left standing. this conviction carries through in her voice. )
I'm bringing our Gale home. Let's go get my fucking axe.
