[blinks a few times to regain his bearings... he groggily looks down at their hands, before at her face.]

Ah... Reirin?

[animatedly]

[she doesn't cry because (redacted) but she does close her eyes tight and look very emotionally wrought!!!]

...Yes. We are all back at the manor. Do you remember what happened?

[SHE IS SO UPSET!!!!! no she's not gonna cry. SHE WILL KEEP HER EYES CLOSED!!!]

[lucentia]

[reirin no!!! he gives her hand a little squeeze in hopes of reassuring her.]

... Yes. I apologize if I worried you.

[animatedly]

[KILLS HIM AGAIN!!!]

...Would you still have made the same choice?

[lucentia]

If someone had to, then yes.

[he's honest......]

[animatedly]

Were you the only person in the chapel?

[DONT JUST BE HONEST]

I could have done the same in your stead.

[lucentia]

You could have. But while it may be selfish of me, I would not have wished for you to.

[animatedly]

May I ask why?

[lucentia]

I... I don't think I said anything unusual there?

[animatedly]

Do you wish to protect me? Or do you dislike seeing others in pain?

Or perhaps, you do not wish for others to take on a role that should always be yours?

[lucentia]

… I believe you are strong enough to protect yourself, of course. However, even so, you are correct—I do not wish to see you harmed.

[animatedly]

Lucien... You truly have a kind heart. It makes arguing with you quite difficult.

[lucentia]

I don't think I have a particularly kind heart, but I am glad as I don't want to have to argue with you.
