He did get lucky. He put me to sleep and I fell off a building.

[she says, tucking her hair behind her ear. she's quiet for a moment, and then:]

... I don't need to talk about it. I just wasn't ready to go. No amount of talking will fix that.

[piteous]

... Yeah. We could have done a lot of things and you've been on the other side for a while.

[ Vash won't disagree that they didn't lose time, so he smiles a bit sadly. ]

Nahri especially missed you. [ ... ] Got a story there?

[bindings]

I know she did.

[she's sad that nahri did. a pause.] A story?

[piteous]

Yeah! Like... Are you two... Together? Maybe?

[ He had always been curious. ]

[bindings]

[she goes very faintly pink.]

No. [...] I asked her if she would kiss me again if we are able to touch each other, but I don't know if that counts as what you mean.

[piteous]

[ AGAIN??? His eyes are wide because hello? ]

I guess it depends on whether you want it to be that or not.

[bindings]

[HELP yeah again!!!]

... I do. [she says, a little hesitantly.] I think I do. But it may not matter, if we can't see each other again after this.

[piteous]

... We don't really know what might happen at the end, even though I've heard of what-if plans here and there.

[ Stroking his chin, thoughtfully. ]

But that gives one reason to jump for it!

[bindings]

[she thinks about that.]

Does it? [...] Is it worth it?

[to set yourself up for heartbreak, she thinks.]

[piteous]

[ Strokes his chin. ]

I guess it depends. Would you rather think about what could have been? What might have happened?

Sometimes, you have to take a risk.

[bindings]

[huh.

she tucks her hair behind her ear.]

... I'm no stranger to risks. [she says finally.] I will think about it. Thank you, Vash.

[a beat.] Is that what you thought about Wolfwood?

[piteous]

I know you're not, Snowie.

[ He had a feeling if Shenhe was alive she would have started killing. Different risks, but still risks.

With the question, his smile softens... It's fond, though tinged with light sorrow. ]

... I wanted to make use of what time I could have had left with him, but I am hoping for a future, too.

[bindings]

[she 100% would have, because she wouldn't have wanted nahri and vash to have to. different risks, still risks.]

Do you think that's possible? [she tilts her head.] Is there a way to make it possible?

[piteous]

Unfortunately, that's not in my control.

[ They are not team froggystyle, so! ]

But I'm hopeful!

[ FAITH ALONE WILL SUSTAIN HIM ]
