If it makes you feel any better it's all crap I've had for years and most of it was stolen from drones.

MOST of it...?

[And she snorts.]

... still, I'm surprised that you're just giving it away, Lobelia.

Yeah, well, tis the season and all that crap. I'm starting to run out of room to store things anyway.

[Coquelicot? Not fooled for a moment.] ... I'm not surprised. We HAVE been here for a while, after all.

[She trails off into silence. Thankfully, it's not her usual "brb, losing all hope" kind of silence, since she speaks up after a few seconds.]

Um, Lobelia...

What? Something wrong?

Ah, no, it's just-

[... well, Coquelicot's a horrible liar, so she gives up.]

... sorry, I kind of overheard that first part. Are you doing alright?

Note to self: Never talk anywhere remotely near a phone anymore.

I'm...fine. Perfectly okay. You're better, so whatever. That's all that matters right now.

Lobelia...

I'm not twelve anymore, you know. And even if I WAS, I'd be able to tell that something's wrong.

[There's a pause.]

... you can't try to take all of this on by yourself...!

...If I don't, who else will?

I went through Hell before I ever met you. This is nothing. Least I could do is shoulder as much of this as I can so the others don't have to.

... I honestly don't know. Everyone has their own problems to deal with, and I... I know I don't have the kind of courage to even try what you've been doing. I'm sorry...

But, still...

Oh no no no, we went over this yesterday. Don't think you're less brave than me or whatever just because you're not stupid enough to do something like this.

And don't apologize either. I'm doing this because I want to. Because I need to.

But it's- [She stops short of saying "it's true." Gotta get the focus back onto Lobelia this time.]

Because you need to? Lobelia...

... you're talking about sacrificing yourself, aren't you.

Don't tell me that you've forgotten what... what Ichiro taught us, all those years ago.
