I feel like I've accomplished a lot more since I left home, though. And the things I didn't like about it at first have made me a lot stronger.

[chanteuser]

Most people do, don't they? There's a big weight put on "leaving home and finding yourself", or something along those lines.

[dawnblushed]

Really?

[chanteuser]

Sometimes it's just moving to a different city to settle down, but... moving for work isn't so uncommon.

[ her smile is just the tiniest bit tight when she says that, but it's fine. yona's dead now so she can't have any lore. ]

[dawnblushed]

[BEING DEAD IN THE FUTURE DOESN'T STOP HER FROM BEING CONCERNED AT THE TIGHTENING OF ALEX'S SMILE IN THIS MOMENT.]

...I guess I never thought about it like that. [...] Sorry, did I make you think of a bad memory...?

[chanteuser]

[ hmph ]

... Mm. Well. I didn't really like the job I moved for. It wasn't really what I thought it'd be.

[dawnblushed]

...I'm sorry to hear that.

[chanteuser]

It's not something you have to apologise for, Yona. It all worked out, eventually. [ sort of. ]

[dawnblushed]

...still, I don't like hearing that my friends were unhappy even for a little while.

[chanteuser]

[ a "little" while. ]

[ but bless you yona, that's very sweet. ]

There's not much point worrying about it. It worked out. [ mostly ] And I don't have to worry about dealing with my boss again.

[dawnblushed]

[look she's canonblind,]

That's good. I'm glad to hear it.

[chanteuser]

[ good. stay that way yona. ]

Yeah. It's... fine now. [ it's fine. ]

[dawnblushed]

[squints.]

You paused.

[chanteuser]

It's better. Not perfect, but that's no one's fault. I'm as safer than I was before.

[ haha ]

[dawnblushed]

[squiiiints]

...and you'll still be safe? Once we get out of here and go home?

[chanteuser]

[ hit her with the hard questions why dontcha. ]

I don't know. [ she might as well be honest. ] But it's still better than things were before.

[dawnblushed]

[hmm.]

..well... do whatever you need to in order to stay safe, once you go back... okay?

[chanteuser]

I'll try.

[ she can't really promise much else? ]

I don't really want to end up in trouble, honestly.

[dawnblushed]

I don't want you to end up in trouble, either.

[chanteuser]

It sort of comes with the territory, Yona.

[dawnblushed]

I can't say I don't understand that...

[danger kind of comes with the territory for her, too.]

...but I still don't like it.

[chanteuser]

[ ...


she taps her on the forehead. ]

Now you know what I was thinking earlier.

[dawnblushed]

...

You did that on purpose, didn't you.

[chanteuser]

Not specifically, but the point still stands.

[dawnblushed]

Well... I promise I'll do everything I can to be as safe as I can, so you'd better do the same thing.
