[She smiles back, weakly.]

...I'll cut you a deal. If you can remember to be kind to yourself, then, well, I'll do the same. Or, uh, do my best, at least.

[shootyourshot]

Oh, uh.

[CALLED OUT OOPS]

I-I'll do my best, then. For both of us.

[persecutetioncomplex]

Y-Yeah. Me too.

[There's something intrinsically sad about both of them needing the incentive of somebody else's happiness to pursue their own, but no Empire-born child worth their salt has the time for that sort of thorny introspection, so she tucks the thought away, where all the others go.]

...take care, Ashe. Even... even if I someday disappear back to what's waiting for me, the way other people have, okay?

[shootyourshot]

...Things wouldn't be the same without you either. It's you I've bonded with, Bernadetta. Not any other version of you.

You should know that.

[persecutetioncomplex]

I know.

[She tries so hard, to make that distinction for everyone. To minimize the hurt and pain that will come, when they go back to their lands with same-faced, same-named, same-hearted friends who have never set foot in Noctium.]

I'm, well, it's a little sad to think none of you will visit me, when I'm... back. But maybe Dimitri will. ...I think he will, if, uh, if anyone... knows where I ended up, when the smoke cleared. He's kind like that.

[shootyourshot]

He is, despite what he says about himself.

I don't regret all that we've experienced together, you know. Not here, even when it's hard. I've really adored our time together. And I hope we continue to have it, for as long as possible.

[persecutetioncomplex]

Me too. ...thank you for coming, Ashe. I'm... I said it a few times, but I'm sorry I lost it. Being with you makes me really happy, and it's... it's comfortable. It was as scary as it was wrong, to get paranoid over it.

[shootyourshot]

It's all right. I'm... sure it hit very close to home with you.

Call me if you need anything else. Please. And... I'll, um. Try to remember to do the same.

[persecutetioncomplex]

Honestly, this place... it feels a lot more like 'home' than the manor did, for... ages, honestly.

Yes, I will. It's a promise.
