Some of them are masochists. They probably appreciate the feeling that they're giving of themselves. And don't worry about it. It's not a bad thing to think about... just new to me.

Think I'm going to track down Eridan later.

I can understand that feeling a little to be honest - Frankly, I'd feel pretty guilty if everything was hunky-dory on my end while my friends and allies were out there fighting and dying. I guess I'm just hard wired that way.

I hope he's alright. I met up with Hanako yesterday.

Little fin-face was doing just fine a couple days ago when I saw him. I think I've seen him lurking in the shadows around the arena like a creepy bastard. It's almost painful to watch sometimes. [She snorts out a laugh.]

And it's not entirely bad to be wired like that. A lot of people think that's a good thing, and I'm not one to judge.

Well, I'm glad to know he's alright. I didn't see him in the arena but I've been pretty busy either healing or trying to get some rest.

Heh - and I appreciate that, Samantha. The not judging part. Thanks. It actually feels like I'm being of a decent amount of use.. so... It's nice in a way.

You're an advanced healer. That alone makes you prized with them. They need all the advanced healers they can get. With the help of a few lenders or transfers, you guys can actually do a lot of good, though I'll bet you'll feel exhausted soon enough if not already.

Beleive me. Exhaustion has hit me more than once already. Still, my supply of meds is holding out and so long as I take a break and drink something every so often, I'm back in the game quicker than I thought was possible.

Good. Don't take any of my stamina boosters. I'm not sure if that stuff will overclock your heart, alright? It's magic, and the types of stamina we have is more magical energy... but I don't like the risk.

Trust me. I take enough medication already that I don't want to add a single potion, pill, or shot to my system if I can at all avoid it.

I kind of figured, but always good to double check these things. Tomorrow's going to be hell. I don't know that we can really avoid that.

We can't. But we can lessen the blow by taking care of what we can now, you know? Pinch of prevention, ounce of cure and all that.

....Haha, like I need to use that line with you! Sorry. That's kind of your business right there.

Yeah... [God, pleasant topics. Where are you?]

Speaking of prevention... the tea I've been working on worked. They locked me up, but she didn't come out.

That is Fantastic news - I knew something would be figured out. You must be so relieved! I'm really, really happy for you.

I'm careful not to make promises, and I still want them to lock me up again next time just in case...

But it is an improvement, yeah.

I understand and I think that's probably a good idea. But the fact that you're going to be able to avoid doing or saying anything like... the last few times. I mean, that's got to be a weight off your shoulders.

[She sighed and laughed.]

yes and no. The things I did still haunt me, and there will always be the fear that one of these days something might go wrong.

...but it is an improvement, yes.

Speaking of improvements, things are much better with Hanako and I.

Hallelujah. That was going to be my next question. I... might speak to her at some point, but not yet.

I need to make peace with Karuika before I bother to speak to his friends.

Honestly, I'd leave her be until everything has settled down if we get to that point. I'm proud of how well she's handled everything so far, really. She's been working to make barriers to help keep shelters and the hospital safe.

Actually, when I say things are better between us... I mean a lot better. I guess... well. We're a couple now.

[He wasn't going to go into the thing with Karu - That whole situation weighed on him still. Hopefully there was a peaceful or at least amicable ending to it.]

[Well, she wouldn't have blamed Karuika for the venom he had for her. But that wasn't really important. Her eyes widened and she grinned.]

Are you now? I'd say that's about time from what little you said before. Good.

And don't worry... I'm not going to her for a while yet, assuming we're still here. There's... no rush here.

Eheh - It's about time? Was I that transparent before?

[He thought he was doing an OK job of being stoic on the matter. Obviously not!]

Yeah, that's true. There really isn't. We still don't know which way things will go, after all.

No... not really, but you worried a whole hell of a lot about what she thought of you, a little more than a friend might. It sort of clicked you 'might' have had a thing for her, maybe a little. It's not like you really give off the raging romantic vibe.

[He couldn't help laughing at her words.]

Haha! Raging Romantic? No! No, not at all. There's not much that would be called 'raging' about me and certainly not that aspect. But you're rigjht. I've cared about her that way for a long time. Since before coming here. Though, I'm glad I wasn't too overt about it. It would have been weird to find out people had guessed before I was able to say anything.

Heh, well we've also talked about stuff related to this a little, so that probably has a part in all this. I kind of doubt you talk about these things often.

No, not really. You might not guess it to look at me but I've always been a bit shy about this stuff.

[He's kidding about the 'you might not guess it to look at me' part. Hopefully that comes through and he doesn't sound vain.]

Perish the thought! [Hear that sarcasm? Yeah, she caught the joke.] I never would have noticed you were such a humble soul in a million years, Hisao. It's news to me.
