[Before Varian knows it, he's suddenly being embraced by not just Farrah- who he hadn't even seen run up- but Rina too. Their arms have him bracketed against the wall with no choice but to accept it, and honestly? He's not sure he even has the strength to struggle free even if he'd wanted to. He can see B's body every time he blinks, he can hear what the Wizard had said every time the roaring of the blood rushing past his ears abates for even a second.
He lets go of his legs, his arms reaching haphazardly to wrap around them both wherever they end up. It's likely awkward, a funny tangle of limbs between the three, but it doesn't matter. Varian's struggling not to be loud- to shout, to scream in frustration- because the horror of seeing someone so freshly dead hasn't quite sunk in. No, it's...everything else around it.]
He sa-said...he said he wasn't-
[He grinds it out through gritted teeth, ignoring the angry tears that drip onto the floor between his legs.]
He acted like he w-wasn't even human! Like he didn't deserve-!
[Sure, maybe it makes sense not to hold a trial. He's glad that they didn't have one, or else he probably would have attempted to pin the blame on Janis just for being there. Two lost lives in one night would have been too much.
