That's... not true... Why would he...

Am I... that much of a-a failure?

[a_greedy_prince]

You're hardly a failure.

Y-Young master-

[konoehei]

[konoehei]

I am.

[a_greedy_prince]

You aren't. You...

[silent for a moment, torn between saying what he really feels and what's proper]

You're one of the few people that I know I can count on, completely.

[konoehei]

M-Master-

Th-Thank you... I... glad to hear that...

[ooc: Cue another outbreak of quiet, happy sobs. And I say, screw proper!]

[a_greedy_prince]

[ooc; Well, since you put it so nicely... He'll be pulling her into his arms right about now. :3]

[konoehei]

Young master? Wha...?

[Shocked, she looks up at him imploringly, but doesn't insist on him letting her go.]

[a_greedy_prince]

...I'm sorry. I--You know... That you're important to me, right?

[He doesn't quite meet her eyes as he says this, tense.]

[konoehei]

[Confused, she tries to meet his eyes, tries to search his face.]

You just said... you can count on me...
