[ there's a faint hint of affection even if things aren't great because charlie is dead. unfortunately, elysia doesn't go out without making sure she looks neat, so she looks fine.
she gives him a smile. ]
I'm surprised and worried, but I'm fine. I didn't think that'd be the last time I saw Charlie.
Yeah. I don't know why I can't find anything, and no one else I've talked to has said that they saw anything either.
[ she sighs a little. ]
I am hoping for a reason that's easy on the mind, but realistically, I know... even if by some way, it's an accident, that nothing looks out of place - it's too strange.
There's the one in particular. Charlie coddled him particularly hard, and he isn't handling it well. [ ... ] But it will always be one step forward and six steps back with that child.
I think healers have one of the toughest duties. You have to see people who are hurt the most in every way and try to save them.
You all cherish life so much. [ she smiles. ] I want to acknowledge that. I also don't want to jump to too many conclusions yet. Don't tire yourself out too soon, please.

You don't have to worry about me. Although I'm sure there are a couple you're especially worried about for destructive habits.

I haven't spoken to him much yet, so I didn't think he'd appreciate too much of a stranger right now. But I'm glad you're trying, Jiaoqiu.
Everyone needs someone like you.

You're too kind, Ellie. I'm only doing my duty as a healer. And it will only be more difficult from here on out, now that the illusion is shattered.

You have a point. Jumping to conclusions will leave me with more problems than I started with. [ he doesn't answer the last bit because no promises ]
And I already have plenty. [ nyeh. rubs at his back. ]
