Then, I'm leaving that wretched place. No more children blasting holes through my ceiling, at least.

Better than having another Sephiroth to live with.

However... I just realized something.

Huh? Why not?

I mean, besides the normal attachment issues you two seem to have.

...To put it simply? She'll be jealous.

I don't know what she'll do, however. Possibly as little as trying to talk me out of it, or as much as going out of her way to hurt you in some sort of twisted retribution. I'd have to guess the latter, knowing her.

But needless to say, she won't like it. At all.

It's the same as before. As long as I'm giving someone more... attention... than her, she won't take it well at all. That's how a lot of my childhood friends wound up in the hospital in comas, after all.

...I figured it was only fair to give you advance warning. This is what you'll be getting yourself into if you still want to do this.

... I see.

Well, it's already been set up, so there's no use in going back on it now, is there? I'll see if I can talk to her and work things out before they get to be a problem.

But if it does become a problem, then it's my problem -- not yours. I'll deal with the consequences.

I'm not trying to protect you, though. It really would be my problem. I was the one who asked, not you.

Besides, I can take care of myself~ Not that you would every try to, but you know what I mean.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, "Don't worry about it."

...As long as it involves Yubel, then it is always going to be partially my problem as well. She is my burden, my fault, is she not?

Even you must know that.

A piece of advice: don't try to reason with her, Johan, even if you're being genuinely selfless. Even I probably wouldn't be able to convince her not to act on that jealousy. She doesn't care about anyone but me, including bargaining with them when it comes to me. She's not going to share.

...

Leaving.

[darkenedred]

Yes.

Leaving.

[darkdemonrose]

Where?

[darkenedred]

If I tell you, you won't do something stupid like come after me?
