anger is an acid
Who: Felix and YOU?
What: An angry wizard on patrol
When: The evening of day 4
Where: Anywhere inside Cair Paradisa

There's a difference between being angry and the castle for his own sake and being angry at the castle for -- what, exactly? Allowing these monsters to kill people? Facilitating it in the first place? That was dubious at best. Just like with Slenderman a few years ago, it's unclear how much will the castle might be exerting. Last time it seemed to be trying to help them, as it had, again, with the virus outbreak - though perhaps that was a case of a possessive castle protecting it's things from the wrath of another. This time there is less signs of assistance. He doesn't know what to believe.
All he feels is the rage. And as inadvisable as it might seem, given the circumstances, he sets out tonight on his self-appointed mission to try and protect everyone else. The fact that he might die as a result seems trivial. He is a wizard, after all; and silence was barely a limiting factor to his magic. Let the others investigate it. There were more than enough eyes in the library right now. He might not even have to admit that avoiding his friends was part of the reason.
As soon as it starts to get dark he roams the halls; his witchlights out to light his way, as much to help him see as to make himself visible to others. The tiny pale green lights skitter away into dark crevices and back as he moves, his stride steady and sure. He would kill whatever this was, if he could. It would be something, at least, to let this anger out on.

Even without his voice, Felix gestured emphatically down the hall, and really he hadn't meant that to come off quite so desperate but he hated the thought of losing any more than he'd already lost. Crushing the castle might be impossible but crushing one of it's creations may be less so.

::And the only possible way to accomplish that is to wander off by yourself. Sure you're not just looking to offer yourself up to them?::
He could understand Felix's position--he certainly didn't want to see anyone else wind up dead, either--but he wasn't above pointing out foolishness when he saw it.
no subject
Did he want to die? No. But did he care overmuch about the likelihood that he might? That was as much a negative at the other.
no subject
He was irritated, in part because he thought Felix was being willfully reckless, but also in part because he was doing what Howl hadn't been able to bring himself to do, and actually try to face something head-on.
no subject
He crossed his arms at that, this jaw tensed, trying not to show that he didn't really believe that claim himself, even if was the tiniest fraction of the truth.

::I somehow doubt I'm the only person who had such an idea::
He knew how people in the castle were around disasters. Heroes and vigilantes were common, and were exactly the sort that made it impossible to corral enough people into a safe place.
no subject
It was the only explanation for all the trouble people around here seemed to find themselves in.
no subject
It wasn't his problem if Howl lacked the sense to be offended and leave him alone to his mission.
no subject
Which seemed arrogant as hell, but at this point, he was fairly convinced he lacked what these monsters wanted most.
