Who: Kanaye and Maeko
What: Checking up.
Where: Kanaye's room.
When: After Toshidungeon.
Why: Kanaye is an idiot.

Kanaye winced as he dabbed some ointment onto his bruises. Idiot, idiot, idiot... In his defense, how would he know that staircase would de-attach from the wall? It's not like that happens all the time. And it's not like he expected not to be able to get healed... What's the point of having dia-ers if they can't DO anything? He grumbled to himself as he took off his shirt to get at the cuts easier, wrapping bandages around himself. Wincing again, he sighed and laid back. He wasn't quite sure what just happened, but he really didn't like it...

Maeko had immediately felt bad. Justifiably or not, she had just compared a badly injured Kanaye to the most terrible thing she could think of.

But she was also a great believer in the 'already fucked up, no point in trying to recover' school of thought. And this whole conversation was still hitting far too close to home, especially after being reminded that she'd been slipping back into old habits again (again).

"No. Shut up. That's dumb. You don't get to die anyway. Nobody does." She said before fading into incoherence and sighing, moving her hands in her lap and staring at them, tristing a bead around on the elastic of one of the bracelets to hide and then show and then hide again the ladybird printed on one side.

"I don't deserve protection and I certainly don't need it." She mumbled, not aware of the significance of those words. "I don't want it, either."

	"I-I'm sorry, Maeko...I-I just..." Kanaye said before looking at her with a deer-in-the-headlights look. Oh god...He still hadn't really recovered from shadow maeko. Especially the first time he found out who she was and that she was hiding as regular Maeko. Kanaye just stared, scared, for a bit before crying into himself. "Maeko, I-I am so sorry..."

And there she'd gone again. Way to go, Akuba. If being able to make people who refused to stand up for themselves cry was useful she might even have had a marketable skill there.

She sighed, touching Kanaye's hand carefully. Making people scared was no fun. It was what the witch did (and not even in a metaphorical way, it seemed to be one of the few things she was even capable of).

She didn't actually apologise (why should she? it wasn't like getting mad was anything to apologise for.) hut remained in silence with her hand on his for a while.

"Just be careful, okay?" She said eventually, once she'd calmed enough to trust herself to talk. "I don't want you dead. And if there's a chance the witch can't do anything..."
