week 5; post-cyoa (Rebecca)

[discardia]

[ Well, thanks to Jae-ha hauling her off to the infirmary, Cardia is nice and bandaged and very tired, but she's sure her roommate will have questions, so.

As soon as they're both back in their room, she'll look at her expectantly with a weary smile. ]

I'm sorry for worrying you.

It's been a long time since... Never mind.

Right... you're only two. If... if you're really sure, then I won't... do anything for you.

[But her heart feels like it's shattering when she hears about Sanji.]

I don't want him to be hurt.

[discardia]

I think he'll be fine, too... but he almost sacrificed himself to the mermaids to let me escape.

[ Cardia didn't take too kindly to that. ]

[disclosures]

There are some way too self sacrificing people in this castle.

[discardia]

I agree. It's a problem.

[disclosures]

Is there a way we can get them to stop doing that?

[discardia]

Yell at them? I'm not sure, though... it might be too late to change that part of them.

[disclosures]

I really doubt yelling would work, but I don't know what would.

[discardia]

We'll just have to keep an eye on them.

[disclosures]

Who else do we need to keep eyes on?

[discardia]

Souji, Jae-ha probably, Stephanie...

[ ... she's already tired. ]

[disclosures]

Ugh... that's too many people to keep track of.

[discardia]

I think we still have to try. It would be a shame to lose any of them.

[disclosures]

Are you absolutely sure we have to?

[Because Rebecca cares about a handful of people at a time, and a few Cardia mentioned simply aren't people she'd mind losing.]

[discardia]

... Well. You don't have to.

[ But she will!! ]

[disclosures]

I'll look after Sanji and you.

[Two of the people she really cares about here.]

[discardia]

I think that's more than enough.

[ Especially fucking Sanji DEAR GOD, MAN. ]

Thank you, Rebecca.

[disclosures]

What are you thanking me for? I'm only agreeing to two people.

[discardia]

That's two less people I have to worry about.

[ Even if... one is her. ]

[disclosures]

... One of those people is you. You get that, right? Basically I'm only going to look after one of the people you mentioned, and you because you're my partner.

[discardia]

That's fine.

[ ... ugh, she's tired, though. But talking first. ]

I can handle the rest.

[disclosures]

I'll keep you from hurting yourself too much. That'll work.
