...I don't know if it will, either. But it's guaranteed that it won't if I don't try, so - even if I fail, it's better to try it than to not try at all.
What for? I know Pride tends to get stab happy, but I haven't heard about Avatars harming participants for the sake of it. [ although....... has he maybe heard this about gluttony before? he can't remember but it doesn't sound unfamiliar. ]
Nothing wrong with trying. Just... you have to be ready to accept that sometimes you'll fail, and not let that put you back.
I didn't do anything - I was just eating! ...but they got all of us...
[she's
well, she was traumatized by it, but now, days later, she's mostly just mad. there's still a twinge of something unpleasant - maybe a little scared? - in her expression when she talks about it, but she's mostly looped around to being annoyed about it.]
...yeah. You really are wise - I should listen to you more often than I do.
she leans into the hug, but is IMMEDIATELY pouting at the pinch]
It's not like I always don't listen to you. Just, sometimes! I have to make up my own mind about things too, you know, I can't always just follow what other people say...
[she thwaps at his hand when he pinches her. like, very lightly. almost playfully?]
...I'd just washed my hands! And I jut thought it would be the most accurate way to compare it, if it was on a hand instead of something else... I get that it wasn't now, though.
So we'll keep an eye on her. We can't guarantee she won't lose anyone else, that's impossible. And irresponsible. But we can make sure she still has people around her, so she's not left alone.

[ YIKES? ]

[ there are so many ideals in that sentence, he doesn't know where to begin. ] That would be nice. I don't know if it'll happen.

[it still happened.]
You're right about that. I'll keep trying, and I might get a little upset when things don't work out, but... I'm not going to give up, either.
no subject
It's normal to get a bit upset when you fail. Get mad, shout a bit, break something. Clean it up and keep going.

he's just gonna come on in for the Hug now. scared sqx is not a good look, and he's not a fan.
and then he pinches her side. ]
And now you're just literally admitting you don't listen to me. Thanks.

So argue back. The best plans come about when someone's pushing back against someone else. You're never gonna see your own flaws, otherwise.

I guess that's true. I didn't realize the biting thing was a bad idea until you guys pushed back about it.
no subject
[ a little pinch again. ]
You'd just been touching a corpse, after all. And, y'know. Asking someone to injure you isn't really the best idea.

I definitely can't let myself die. It would upset Aoi.

It'd upset a number of us. Me? Ming Yi? Like half the other people in this place?

she looks sort of touched, but then she also just looks. worried? aaaa.]
...she was crying, before, because she was so afraid she'd lose someone else.
