[there are things that are too pressing to allow to pass, even when Minako's getting settled in.

there's a knock on the dorm door.]

Who is it?

andrebirth October 15 2010, 05:44:51 UTC

It's me.

[sounds, perhaps, a little awkwardly solemn]

Ryoji? [gets up from her desk to open the door]

andrebirth October 15 2010, 05:52:00 UTC

Minako ...

... I ...

[pause]

Haha, as much time as I've given myself, I'm not sure where to start ...

[smiles in what she hopes is a reassuring fashion]

Wherever you want; I've got time.

andrebirth October 15 2010, 06:02:45 UTC

You're so kind to me, Minako~chan!

sees_theworld October 15 2010, 06:11:46 UTC

[grins] Flatterer.

andrebirth October 15 2010, 06:15:02 UTC

[in all seriousness, here]

I wanted to see you again.

sees_theworld October 15 2010, 06:18:26 UTC

[a soft smile at that]

You did?

andrebirth October 15 2010, 06:21:41 UTC

[gently]

Theodore-san reminded me of what happened.

sees_theworld October 15 2010, 07:12:23 UTC

...Oh.

andrebirth October 15 2010, 15:44:54 UTC

[a small, sad smile]

I feel like I should apologize again.

sees_theworld October 19 2010, 01:39:36 UTC

I'm not sure if it was anything that could have been helped, considering that you didn't even know what was going on for most of it.

[smiles a little] ...Unless you meant all the flirting.

andrebirth October 19 2010, 01:52:39 UTC

No, not for that.

[pauses, opens his mouth, and then closes it in hesitation. breathes. tries again, slowly, because this is difficult for him]

I knew what was going to happen, but I thought it was hopeless. I didn't believe in you, or what you were capable of-even though I loved you dearly. I was so afraid of you suffering that I ... I was afraid ... of doing anything to help you ...

sees_theworld October 19 2010, 02:02:04 UTC

...Because you couldn't see any other way out. I know. I think almost everyone on the team had doubts at some point or other, about whether we even had a chance, much less whether we could win.

I don't know how much free will you had as the Appraiser, but... for what it's worth, I never held that against you.

andrebirth October 19 2010, 02:43:03 UTC

...

[takes her hands carefully]

That's why I need to apologize.

I let someone that I loved very dearly take her own life because I didn't have the strength to decide whether or not I had the power to change anything.
