[ NOGIKU... Meteion just, genuinely looks surprised in her direction. not that it's bad, she was just taken aback? but. that they would react like this, in her stead. she feels appreciation, and.. some fond. ]
..Thank you, Nogiku. [ she gently takes the blanket, holding it in her hands where some scrapes and cuts can be seen. but it's okay. she's slightly better than before. ]
I already spoke most of, what happened with Su Jiuqing so I think... I'll be okay, it's just. ..Death was.. a lot different than I, expected it to be. I don't think I was.. really prepared for it. Much less.. two times..
[Ah... There's anger, there. And Nogiku closes her eyes for a moment, as if to center herself.]
To tell the truth... No one is prepared for it. Not even those of us who have had to live with the proverbial sword hanging over our heads our entire life. [Quietly.] It's a terrible thing to experience once, much less twice. I'm sorry, Meteion.

... [ she, unfortunately, has nothing to say at first. her head does tilt. ] Only viable creations... [ ... ] I'm sorry. It all feels...
[ a lot. overwhelming. miserable. at a loss because she's kinda dissociating. ]

She's silent for a moment, a complicated mess of emotions rattling in her skull. And then, quietly:]
... Who decides what's viable, anyway?
[The ancients are about to catch these hands.
Nogiku takes one of the blankets Itsuki handed out, anyway, and holds it out to her.]
It's okay. You don't owe me any apologies. Whatever time you need to process things... it's yours.
