115. Light

Hey. We've got a lotta new people this month, huh? For anyone who's new, I'm Sheena. I think the guide answers just about every question, but I've been here for a really long time, so if anyone wanted to ask, I'm okay with answering about stuff.

I was thinking about trying out that battle arena thing. Anyone done it already and wanna tell me what it was like? If it's like the coliseum I dunno about trying it.

What would you guys think about having a winter, uh, festival thing like we did a couple years ago?

[Yuri]
I met your crazy rival.

[Raine]
Hey, are you up for visitors? I know it's gonna get late soon...but hopefully Albert'll forgive me.

She didn't even try.

...She should've.

What the hell was so bad about having me, anyways?

[Well. She doesn't know. Because these days he ain't half bad, and all.

And there aren't really words to say when he gets like this. But she can go back to stroking his hair.]

I hate parents like that. They don't even deserve to have kids.

Then you wouldn't exist.

[she made sure to say that carefully.]

The manipulation of the mana lineage would've wound up with someone like me eventually.

I kinda like the you we've already got.

Heh... if you say so.

[she just makes a noise that's sort of a 'hmm.' He seems to do better when she doesn't say much of anything.]

Sorry.

Why?

You're trying to sleep and here I am, keeping you up with my sob stories.

If I cared that much more about sleeping, I'd just kick you out. It's okay.

[quiet for a few seconds.]

And I'd rather be up with you.

[A snort at the first remark.]

You got some weird priorities.

Yeah, maybe.

[shifts herself up further on the bed so she's sitting against the head of it. Her hand stops, and will just rest on top of Zelos' hair for a while.]

Not to change the subject, but you'd make a really good mother.

[what. What. She's turning as red as his stupid hair!]

I-I think that counts as changing the subject!

Well, you're doing all these... motherly things. It just popped into my head.

I just...I just thought...h-how should I know what a mom does?

Well, you'dve done a better job than mine.

At this point I think Gnome would've done better.

...You should try to go back to sleep.

I might have had a better sense of humor, yeah.

[He rolls back over finally. His eyes are still a little red, but he looks otherwise okay.]

Only if you are.

[when she looks down at him her own eyes widen]

You were crying?

[World's most uncomfortable face. Ever.]

What? I'm allowed to sometimes, aren't I?
