*Retasu is still reeling. She hasn't been talking much since she saw everything. You can find her in the temple, heavily guarded just in case, sulking in her Felt dress and hugging herself.*

...um, hello.

(This is an open RL! Anyone who wants to come yell at Retasu or just talk to her is welcome. Threadhopping very encouraged.)

Indeed.

[aquaticrush]

I'm still a danger to everybody after all.

[oceanicbutterfly]

You didn't know.

[aquaticrush]

I'm sorry.

[oceanicbutterfly]

What are you sorry for?

[aquaticrush]

Everything!

[oceanicbutterfly]

Not everything was your fault. And out of what was, not everything was bad. Are you sorry you wanted everyone to be protected?

[aquaticrush]

N-no... but you just told me it was impossible.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Just because something is impossible doesn't mean it's wrong to want it.

Retasu-san, there's only one apology I want from you.

[aquaticrush]

Karen-san...

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Hand on shoulder.]

I don't like seeing you thinking that you're not good enough and nobody believes in you.

[aquaticrush]

*looks up shakily* But Karen-san, I'm--

[oceanicbutterfly]

Don't.

[aquaticrush]

Okay!

[oceanicbutterfly]

You're a good person. I want you to remember that.

[aquaticrush]

...all right, Karen-san.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Are you going to be all right?

[aquaticrush]

I'll do my best.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Let me know if you need anything, all right?

[aquaticrush]

*Sniff. Nod.* Okay, Karen-san.
