...Always.
[it hurts to see her try to smile... he tries for calm and reassuring,]
Whatever happens, wherever you are... I'll be here for you.

We could eat a croissant? They seem fine.
[no they're super sugary too]

[thanks shale...
Itsuki just looks at his hands for a moment,]
Wherever we go on Thursday... Are those places a part of the prism?

[Itsuki follows her gaze, his emotions are still WORRIED, but]
...I will. [nogiku, softe... well he's already known that though] Here. These are my second-nicest ones.
[blanket and pillow!!!]

I’m aware.
… It puts the pressure on. If we miss something we’ve got to hustle or risk it happening again.

Mmhmm. Some of us might have come into existence in a different way than you, but I don't think it's that different. Some people feel comfortable or even at their best in conflict or a fight, and others don't.
That's okay. It takes all sorts of people. I admire that Kashuu, Yasusada, Buzen, all want to fight for the things they believe in. But it's important to also have those who want to tend gardens and help others feel better.

[a hot chocolate sippy...]
I wonder if we'll have any better luck this time.
[he is expecting dos bodies, and the same scramble during trial to solve them]

I wasn't there to see it -- but Te-kun and Jiu-chan died in that place we were in. I think I did too, but it's kind of fuzzy.
If we died there and came back, somewhere that's part of the prism... then what about here? Maybe...
[there's worry, tension, but also the barest thread of hope, desperate.]

[and in return he'll get unease and sorrow.]
No. [very definitively, interrupting the trailed off thought.] Where you went, I've been trying to figure it out. Some sort of... something in between a dream and a reality. You know not everything you saw in there was real; time didn't pass the way it appeared to, right?
And you've seen what happens to people who die here. They die.

[...there's a pulse of grief]
...That was a dream, and this is the reality, huh?

[yeah. they seem sorry for that, though, but nod slowly.]
I don't mean to be blunt. I understand why you ask. [...] I used to tend to a graveyard. I've met a lot of people dealing with grief.
Often they're, uh, coming to our temple, hoping for a particular type of miracle. And the world is full of miracles, even from the little I've seen of it, but the desire for that particular one is what I've most often seen tear people apart.
Accepting loss is...the only route to heal from it.

... The sooner we accept our luck sucks the more at peace we will be. But hopefully it won't be too much. Just in general.
[ she's stable!! ]
I'm okay! Aymeric.. and Prompto are only human.. right? It's more important for them, to get healed first. [ she's just a creation bro. ]
...We failed though. Prompto and I... [ her shoulders tremble. ] I.. I should've tried harder, to protect that star.
[ fancy her new black feathers in her plumage? ]

[ you come into MY house-- ]
It's important for you too, Meteion. [ there a firmness in his voice. ]
... I told you about taking everything on your shoulders, didn't I? Did you try with everything you could?

I... I didn't. [ it's a swell of guilt at that. curling into herself with a wince, the pain still there and real. ] ..I told someone that I'd, be careful if anything happened, that I would run away but.. I couldn't.
[ she couldn't run away. so deeply ingrained was the mission, to face everything till the end no matter how much it hurt. ] And yet, I.. I couldn't even fight, even with my- the sword. I.. I knew how to but, I--
[ she couldn't bring herself to use it. even with the experience and knowledge of a swordsman, she couldn't. and then very, very quietly- like a whisper, gaze unfocused as if she's reliving it. the crushing pain, the fear curling tight-- ] I... did get to protect Prompto. [ which there was relief for that, but that fear is lingering. ] ..Death is.. was, a lot scarier than I expected it to be. It's normal, for people to think about it, isn't it? I.. never have, before here.
[ she looks to her hands, as lightly bandaged as they are. ] It doesn't really, prepare you for the second time either... [ will she die a third? stay tuned ]
