Those butterflies... a trial today for all concerned, though, in the end, not the worst of all challenges this city has faced. That does not change the fact that some died, and for those lives, I am gravely sorrowed.

I must take some rest now. Today has been a busy day. Tomorrow I shall get more of the clay-work done.

...Cheza? Are you alright?

[luna_alchemy]

This one is fine. Toboe is here.
It was worried about you.

[silk_in_ebony]

Worried about me? Why so?

[luna_alchemy]

because of him.

[silk_in_ebony]

Him...?

Ah, you mean... yes. Him. I... I wish he wasn't here, and that's the truth. He is.... horrible...

[luna_alchemy]

*hugs him*

[silk_in_ebony]

....thank you for your comfort, Cheza. I appreciate it.

Don't worry about me, OK? I won't be a burden to anybody, I promise. I won't allow him to harm anyone.

[luna_alchemy]

You should not taken on so many burdens.

*Touches his cheek with one hand, looking worried.*

[silk_in_ebony]

*he flushes slightly*

Ah... burdens? I just protect people... I cannot bear to see people in pain...

[luna_alchemy]

*let's her hand and eyes fall.*

This one can not stand to see you in pain.

[silk_in_ebony]

Cheza... I'm... I'm sorry... I....

*he looks slightly ashamed*

Please, don't look sad... I want you to be happy...

[luna_alchemy]

*looks up at him with a small smile.*

[silk_in_ebony]

You look radiant when you smile.

*he sighs*

I don't know what to do. I try to protect everyone, but even in doing that, I hurt people...

[luna_alchemy]

*shakes her head no.*

Follow what your heart says you should do.

[silk_in_ebony]

*he smiles sadly*

I wish I could. I really... wish I could. To protect everyone? No. Until I can look after my health, I am useless to all.
