[ be less concerning, yves. she doesn't know how old he is right now because this is before profiles, but he looks close enough to 23 that this is concerning!!! ]
Twenty-three? That's so young. That's too young.
[ that's horrible? even she can't smile about it. ]
I hope by until recently, you mean they found a way to dispel the curse.
I picked a fight I knew I would die from, but I was able to kill the other person who was the source of our troubles.
So now I think the island still has some work ahead of it... but it's nothing that it can't handle. They should be able to get back on their feet in time.
Sorry, you're just so cute I couldn't help myself from wanting to know more about you. I don't mind saying a few thing about myself. All you have to do is ask.
[ he tilts his head and beams! he's pleased yes but he is also used to attention from cute girls so he doesn't fluster cutely... i wish he did.... ] Thank you, Mademoiselle! But the curiosity is mirrored and returned, of course.
How about... can I hear about the person you miss most too? Then I'll tell you about Hugo.
[ immediately brightens before point at her halo ]
Every roman numeral is one of my precious friends. [ a beat. ] One of them is me.
I'll tell you about one for now, and the others can be another reason for us to meet. It's more exciting that way, don't you think?
Kevin is the first. He has so many stories and rumors about him for being the campus prince, a reliable team captain, the strong Flame-Chaser leader, and humanity's guardian. Doesn't he sound like he has too much on his shoulders?
Oh, my, you have no idea how happy that makes me. I enjoy it when people come to see me for a reason, but I love it even more when people come to see me for no reason.
[ KEVIN..... prince of this random elite school in japan.... the funniest shit. ]
I worked hard to get everyone to join. It wasn't easy to get them all to agree..... Kevin is too stubborn for his own good. I worry about how much he will or won't change.

Ah... Until recently, for the past... couple hundred years? Everyone in the country would die by the time they reached the age of 23.
So it was called the country loved by Death... and cursed by it.

he nods... ]
Mm. Two years ago, a cure for the course was created. So that's good. [ a beat ] We've just had... other troubles since then.
So it's a little hard to be entirely relieved.
no subject
The trouble may not be over, but at least this meant you had more time to solve it.
... would you have been able to solve it if you weren't here?
no subject
well, he'll be direct ]

she smiles because she wants to acknowledge his frankness. ]
What a noble and pure cause, although I'm certain you'll be sorely missed. Do you have no regrets?
no subject
... Thank you, but I don't think I want to call it that. [ noble. pure. ]
There's someone I'm sad that I left behind, but... otherwise, my regrets are minimal. I made my choice, and I wouldn't have done anything differently.
no subject
I've always thought it difficult and heartbreaking to leave people behind and to be left behind.
[ it's not something she thinks she's alone in thinking. ]
Tell me about this someone? They must be someone very important to you.
no subject
I don't mind but... I feel like I'm hogging up all the time talking about me.
Do I get to learn about you afterward, Mademoiselle?
no subject
[ which he just did. ]

[ oh nooooo ]
no subject
As many as you'd like.

You don't need to look for an excuse to meet me, Mademoiselle. I'd always be happy to see you. But I like that idea!
[ he nods along as he hears about kevin and his insanely normal name ]
Flame-Chaser... is that something that connects you all? But - he does sound impressive! I hope he gets to find time to relax while doing all that.
