[AFTER CHECKING ON DOLPHINS gosh this sure seems like a good time to go check on his FAAAAAAAAAVORITE LIZARDS--]

[only BAM. One second you see him running head first to their dorm, the next second he's bouncing waaay back into a pile of rocks]

[wat is this trickery \e_e/]

--what the heck was that?!

[shakes his head]

There has to be something. I know there is.

Please believe it. If nothing else, you saved your team during the Mirror game, didn't you?

...

What... what do you mean? In the last game?

[nods]

You took the maim for them. It would have been much worse if she'd gotten her hands on anyone else.

We didn't win because of me. If it had been my choice alone... we definitely would have lost.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
Then you protected them. Even simple things like that help.

[ppppause]

Not -- not that you should take the damage for the team like that all the time! You're worth more than that!

––No, I didn't. Ace and Red did that. The only thing that I did in that game that came even close to protecting anyone... was just like you said.

[dangerrrr]

In that one instance then. Y-you shouldn't sacrifice yourself in general!

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 10:51 am (UTC)(link)
Then what makes 'that one instance' right? When is it wrong?

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 10:53 am (UTC)(link)
It depends on the situation. I can't tell -- I'm not good at judging that. You have a much better head for dangerous things than I do.

...I don't think I do.

Did you know that I failed to save Sakura in your heart? And not only that, but I made her cry. And I made her feel worthless. She said that she could not even face us.

I can't protect anything. I can stand in the way of an attack, but that still...

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:07 am (UTC)(link)
...It still hurts them. And on top of that, it hurts you. So no matter what I choose to do, I'm letting people be hurt.

[lets him, but doesn't return it yet]

You are my most precious friend. If all else fails, I am grateful every day that you are with me.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:21 am (UTC)(link)
I would rather be wracked with pain every day for the rest of my life than lose my connection to you.

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:26 am (UTC)(link)
...

But that's horrible. That I would cause you pain just by existing.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:28 am (UTC)(link)
Y-you don't! It's a hypothetical!

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:31 am (UTC)(link)
I do.

You're hurting right now.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:34 am (UTC)(link)
That's different! You're doing everything you can to lessen it, even now!

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
The point is that I love you. And so do a lot of other people.
