[TUESDAY | EARLY MORNING]

*Akihiko is in bed, the covers pulled up over him. There are bandages where he got scratches. He looks as if he is asleep but has yet to regain conciousness after last night's mission. His brow is slightly furrowed, but otherwise he is mostly still.*

...It's not that I regret being alive.

...I regret not being strong enough. *Shuts his eyes.* This wasn't supposed to happen.

A lot of things aren't supposed to happen... but they do. You know that.

All I have to say is don't let fayt carry this burden alone. She's blaming herself, NOT you, for what happened.

[onetwoko]

....I know. I knew how she'd take it...

....I have to get stronger.

[fatal_requiem]

Then you do that. If she gets hurt because of you, I'll put my axe up your ass.

[onetwoko]

...Yeah, I hear ya.
