[retsuden]

I think there are enough people capable of protecting others here that we'll hardly be missed.

[creationrebirth]

So you want to go with me then? [ She actually wouldn't go without him, but she doesn't want to let him in on that. She can run off on little errands too, okay? ]

[retsuden]

Mm. Sure. It's been strange sitting around without any missions anyway.

[creationrebirth]

I'm going to do a little research, but, I think we're strong enough to handle the monsters.

[retsuden]

Given the things we've faced back home, I doubt there's much here that could hinder us. The mental side effects that this world is fond of is something to worry about more. We'll have to keep aware of how the other is behaving.

[creationrebirth]

Then we'll just use the techniques we've been practicing here when the corruption starts to overpower us. I imagine, we're more aware of it in the other. I mean, I have a harder time seeing it in myself.

[retsuden]

Mm. It does seem to build itself in a way that makes it difficult. I guess it's easy when they're using our own flaws.

[creationrebirth]

So maybe we should make a checklist of what to watch out for.

[retsuden]

At the very least, we also know that both of us have physical markings that occur when we start to get too high.

[creationrebirth]

Right. There's that too. Yours went away when...we kissed.

[retsuden]

M-Mmmm. Yes. [ He clears his throat, hating how embarrassed he sounds over it. ] It seems that despite my fighting it when I'm in that state, physical touch is the most powerful force to push it back. Vira-Lorr says that's not the case with everyone, but that it is a ... common cure.

[creationrebirth]

Well, if it works we'll go with something like that.

[ After all, any excuse to kiss him. ]

Maybe I'll just kiss you often, as a caution.

[retsuden]

That makes it sound like I might be too much of a distraction for you to properly do you mission.

[creationrebirth]

[ She's blushing, but stays the course. ]

Please, I've controlled myself around you for years.

[retsuden]

You also haven't had free range to kiss me during those years. Maybe it'd challenge your willpower.

[creationrebirth]

[ She laughs. ]

I don't think my willpower will be an issue, but I guess we'll have to see what those woods throw at us.

[retsuden]

I trust you'll be more than capable of fighting against whatever comes our way.

[creationrebirth]

It shouldn't be an issue with the two of us.

We can make more of a plan tonight at home, I just wanted to run it by you.

[retsuden]

Alright. I'm wrapping up at the orphanage. I'll be home for dinner.

[creationrebirth]

[ He'll be home for dinner. It makes her face light up. ]

Alright, I'll prepare something special!

[retsuden]

[ He almost tells her not to go through the trouble, but he's getting that things like that don't do much to dissuade people, and sometimes all they do is... hurt their feelings somehow??? He still doesn't get it, but he's learning slowly.

So instead, he nods. ]

Mm. I'll see you later, then.

[ And he goes to shut off his side of the feed. ]
