『 058』 action & voice;

There's still several hours before midnight. These monsters likely won't disappear from the City until then.

...Lady Estellise, are you sure you're doing fine? If you're at all tired, I can escort you back to our place.

Yes, I'm doing quite fine, Flynn. There's no need to worry about me. Instead, let's see if there's anyone who is in need of our assistance!

[ Flynn pauses in thought but then nods. ].... Understood. But if -- Please let me know whenever you'd like to return home. I can't have you pushing yourself too hard.

[She shakes her head slowly before looking up at him with a smile.] I'm not returning home until this curse ends and we make sure everyone is safe.

[ Flynn nods here and then smiles. ] Alright.

[As soon as she found out he was leaving the house to help protect the citizens of the City, she immediately decided to come with. Of course, not without her sword and shield. It would be silly to ask to accompany Flynn and not be able to fight, herself. These things seemed dangerous, but she's rather positive she could at least put up a fight against them and has as far as she's concerned.]

Where shall we be going next? Should we head back to the square and see if there's anyone in the plaza that needs help?

Estellise-san! You're out here as well? ...I guess you have an escort, though.

Please be careful.

And, um, Flynn-san is it? Thank you for trying to convince her to return. She's quite stubborn, though. [He feels bad not addressing the other person, okay? That feels like bad manners or something.]

That would be a good idea. It's late enough at least that most people should know to stay away from the streets, but we can never be too sure...

[ Flynn looks around then to gauge what's the best path they should take... at least, this place is empty too... ]

Let's go this way, Lady Estellise.

[ North! ]

I know that. [ Yuri told him as much, and he knows from experience! ]

I suppose the best I can do now is to protect her to the best of my abilities.

No, we can't. Even if there is no one there, I would rather we scan the area just to be sure.

[When he signals, she starts trotting in that direction, making sure to not stray too far from him. As much as she's known for running off during times like these, she also doesn't want Flynn to worry about her.]

Yes, I have Flynn with me, so there's no need to worry! [And she's being as good as she can to stay near him, too! That's a plus!]

[Not much experience around her would teach that to anyone.]

I'm glad she at least has someone with her, then. [Someone who seems dependable, at that.]

I wish there was more I could do...so I can't fault for you this. Just be safe.

[ So they walk, with Flynn looking over his shoulder to check Estelle once every minute or two. If anything happened to Estelle, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself. He should have made her stay indoors for today, but Estelle's been locked up in her room since the start of the month, suffering from....... something. Yuri and Estelle both have been keeping him in the dark about that. ]

It's good to know that those things seem to have lessened in numbers too...

[ Because the silence isn't very comforting... ]

If I had refused her, she would have come out on her own.

[ 8D ]

I will, I promise. After all, I have my sword and shield with me, and Flynn is armed as well, so I assure you that if we do have to fight, we'll be able to protect ourselves just fine.

[Wait! He didn't know....]

You know how to fight? I'm sorry if I've been condescending, then. I just have one friend really distraught because two of her friends [well, a friend and her boyfriend] have been killed.

Yes they have, and hopefully by midnight, there won't be anymore. [That is, if this is a regular curse. Ever since the desert city incident occurred, she's been rather on edge with the curses, no matter how light hearted. This one just makes her tense up a little, hoping, hoping that it will end at midnight like all the other curses. She's not sure if she could deal with another large incident. It took her too long to recover from being controlled by the slugs and the nightmares she experienced.]

After we check the plaza, should we head to the woods? Or maybe there's a place we've missed?

Then I'm glad she even asked.

We can check back at Xanadu? I imagine these creatures may have a difficult time navigating the woods themselves... Xanadu, on the other hand, has wide open spaces...

[ Flynn thinks out loud... ]

Yes, I am too.

That's... That's terrible. [There's a silence as she mourns for them, even if she didn't know of them or perhaps wasn't paying terribly close attention to the network.]

There's no need to apologize. I'll simply have to prove my abilities by coming out of this event unscathed, am I correct? And even if I got hurt, I have the ability to heal myself and others, so yes, I'll be fine.

That sounds like a good place to go. Who knows who might be trapped there, and even if there's no one, I would rather check, just in case.

[And now she's decided to run off ahead of Flynn towards Xanadu, shield held out in front of her to protect herself.]

Lady Estellise! Wait...!

[ Quickly runs after her D: WAIT, DON'T RUSH INTO TROUBLE D: ]

It is.... [And that's why HE'S out there in the middle of all this, to be by her side.]

I'm sure you will, though. And, I didn't know you could heal, as well. How? That would definitely come in handy in this place.

Yes, healing is an ability I was born with. Perhaps at another time, I'll tell you why I have it. It's... related to the story about the Child of the Full Moon.

[Because she thinks it's about time people knew about her. There's honestly nothing to hide in this place and she doesn't quite know why she hides things about herself.]

[Luckily, she's not terribly fast and Flynn should be able to catch up with her in no time.]

We're... almost there!

[She yells breathlessly, but just to note that she understands he's following her.]

You have a tie to that story. That is why you took it so personally before? [She seemed really invested in it, at least.]

And...maybe then I should tell you about the stuff I've put off explaining as well.

[They can make a night of coming clean together, when they have more time.]

[She doesn't want to believe he's been hiding things either, but it's not uncommon for people to have skeletons in their closet, is it?]

That sounds like a plan, then. Perhaps this should happen soon. Would you like to speak about this over tea and sweets?

[Tea because she likes it and sweets because, doesn't almost everyone like sweets?]
