I mean... didn't look like it died, to me.

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[sangreine]

Just trust me, then. [ She definitely killed that thing, because that's how it works. It wasn't meant to be here, but that doesn't especially matter. ]

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

And... and even if it didn't make it, don't that just mean it's dead in the real world, anyways?

We're fixing the stuff that ain't real, so you didn't kill nothing. You just reminded him it ain't around no more.

[ This isn't an argument about logic, and logic won't win it. ]

Fine. [ Entirely unconvinced, she just wants to stop arguing about this with literally everyone. ]

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

...I'm sorry.

You shouldn't've had to get stuck with the rough one.

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[sangreine]

Don't be sorry. Like I said, at least I'm good for something.

[ She's going to be smelling that incense for months. ]

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

It ain't about being good for it.

It's about - it sucks, that you had to do that, when it bothers you this much.

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[sangreine]

[ A tiny smile. Fair enough. ]

Well, thanks for that.

There's -- something I should probably say to you, about Nemesis, but I'm not sure how. [ More like not sure what. There's the right thing, then there's what she wants. ]

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

Oh yeah? What kinda thing?

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[sangreine]

That I'd do everything I could not to hurt her. [ Selfish though that feels to say, because really she's kidding herself thinking she can pretend to be human. ]

But, if I ever do, it's so I don't hurt her worse.

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

What... do you mean?

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[sangreine]

I can be dangerous. You know that. [ Well, he knows some of it. ]

Sometimes I might need to keep people away from me if I'm having trouble with control. And I'd never forgive myself if --

[ neither of them want her to finish that sentence so she won't. ]

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

So, what? Putting on some kinda act, to keep her away from you?

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[sangreine]

I'm not that good an actor.

I thought I'd just tell her, and trust her to get it.

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

Well... tell her what's what, and let her decide what she wants to do with it.

She ain't the kind of person who likes decisions getting made for her, y'know?

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[sangreine]

Probably why I like her so much. [ Unfortunately "stay away from me or I'll probably destroy you" isn't really an optional thing, but it's not like that particular problem is new. Just have to prevent either of them from getting too attached. ]

Re: Yujing Terrance: The Mileleth

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah. She's easy to like.
