[ grace is right and should acknowledge that she's great.
however, unfortunately—the innocuous little shoulder bump sets off another memory, this time, on vira's end.
compared to grace's memory, it is not as sentimental. (thru 24:13) sometimes you start your life as an antagonist. and the feelings that go with her viciousness are a whirlwind: love, empty glee, a fury from a place of hurt and adoration, a loneliness that makes her mind and demeanor crumble.
before the memory descends into battle, it's over. ]
[ grace removes her hand but it's too late, and at the end of the memory she's holding it close to her chest, blinking. that was...
so anime. but beyond that: ]
Vira... [ those hurt feelings and that empty glee, there's something oddly familiar there. grace doesn't linger on it ] We don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.
[ she doesn't seem horrified at anything vira did or said, though maybe a little surprised and sad. ]
[ granblue is so anime i hate it a lot. anyway, vira looks a bit surprised when she settles back to reality, staring out at nothing for a second before she frowns.
considering... everything, she'd really expected a less understanding response from grace. she shifts a bit on her legs where she's sitting, gaze setting to the ground, contemplative. ]
...I don't think I know what to say of it.
[ she thinks of lyria, the girl in blue, and the captain and their crew that she lied to and attacked and generally menaced. with a quiet scoff and a soft voice, ]
If you can believe it, those soft-hearted dopes wanted me to travel with them once they defeated me. I don't really understand how people can be so gracious.
[ she doesn't know if grace will be the same way, if she's the type to turn a blind eye or not. but vira doesn't think of her as an idiot, so. ]

I think I'd hold a grudge myself, but... Did you go with them?
no subject
...Yes. There wasn't much reason to stay, though that makes me the fool in the end, doesn't it?
no subject
[ teasingly. she is not denying vira her fool kinning ]
no subject
Yes. And I was foolish enough to come here as well, so I suppose I've learned absolutely nothing.
no subject
[ oops. ]
