don't pull that card bucko i was also the service class
[she doesn't answer the other part yet because she feels... a way, about people being worried about her. sometimes you struggle really hard with leftover guilt.]
Then you should understand. I'm not asking for your understanding or sympathy since regardless of circumstance we are simply employed at this hotel. But consider that a very small request on my part.
No you're being perfectly civil. I never said we were being forced to do anything, but from observation alone several of you seem to think we're inherently responsible for the contract you have with the owner of the hotel. We are only meant to serve as necessary. So. I will spare you the bullshit.
the other avatars were good people in a bad situation. miles is a good man and he doesn't always see it. he's smart as a whip. iris is stunning and she's going to take over the world someday. emet-selch made me feel like i wasn't alone. hypnos always made me laugh when i was down.
the moments i got to steal away with gu yun made me felt brighter inside and thats just some of the people who arent here
It must feel strange seeing the Emet-Selch that's here and knowing it's not the same person you knew before. Like...reasonably you know they are similar at the core in a sense, but your memories are not the same. Those shared experiences no longer match up. The rest of them sound as though they made your tenure more tolerable. Friends rather than coworkers. Lovers rather than charges. And your thoughts on the people here?
[a big, heavy sigh from her end, not that gemini can hear it. or maybe they can!] it is strange. he's all the good parts of his future self that got buried.
harrow and molly are i dont really deserve the grace they gave me i think sheila and yuri never seemed like it hurt them as much but i dont know
i want to protect them but i think i probably won't be able to
Maybe by being here with him you can help keep those parts out for just a little longer then. What makes you sure you wouldn't be able to protect them?
If I may, Miss Lup. I believe the act of trying qualifies as being able to do something about it. It's only when you refuse to expel the effort that you run out of options. This goes for everything.
