Father... why are you going away? Why won't you turn around and look at me? ...Are you abandoning me because I failed you? Don't leave me here by myself... Don't go away... I can still fulfill my duty here! I will kill him, I will make you proud! I can do it, please... give me another chance. Don't throw me away... please... don't...abandon me... I can still be useful.... please...

((ooc: so Citrine has the tattoo all over by now and is crazy/half delirious/not quite clear in the head. she'll either manage to let go in the last moment ooor turn to ash. also, Rubedo should watch out for duty-obsessed Citrine trying to suffocate him in his sleep, 'for Father'. ...that is, if she still wakes up. >_>))
