[Closed] Late evening
[ Jeanne had a busy afternoon. While Saya was out, she decided it was high time to do some cleaning. Empty out trash cans, dust a bit, hang up some pictures she had taken with her camera, arrange some of Saya's clothes in the drawer, go to the store and grab some posters, put them up on her walls, consider her wardrobe--

...yes, she's not really cleaning anymore, and still won't be when Saya gets back home.

Whoops? ]

	[Saya just sighs.] I'm not like everyone else, Jeanne. Diva moves even faster than this. [She closes her eyes against welling tears.] Don't you get it? I don't want you to get hurt. It's bad enough that you're close to me -- [and that's it, that's all she can say right now, because Riku comes crashing through her mind and she just. Can't say anymore.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ Jeanne turns and puts her hands on Saya's shoulders firmly. Despite trying to intimidate her, all it does it worry her more. ] If that's true, why are you doing this alone? Saya, Diva has two of those knights, now. If they're all faster, stronger, and in greater numbers than you, why are you doing all this alone? [ She can see a stupid idea from a mile away; at least, when they're not her own. ]

Because! [She has to take a deep breath to even get that one word out, and still her voice shakes and wavers.] I can't get hurt if I fight Diva or her Chevaliers. But I have to watch everyone else die fighting them. It's -- [by now she's just sobbing, her eyes far away, holding her father's hand as the light leaves his eyes, watching Riku crumble to dust.]

You can't ask me to watch you die too. You just can't!

[ She can barely fight to keep the tears from her own eyes, thinking back to all her lost comrades; her friends; Seifriet... ] A-and you think I'm just going to let you run off and get yourself hurt over and over again, because you can't die? Is that what I'm supposed to do? [ Her hands curl into fists, and she actually hits one of Saya's shoulders, trying to vent her frustration before it consumes all her thoughts. It's a weak blow; like someone trying to deliver the knock-out punch with a fist made of cotton balls. ]

	[that little punch does nothing physically, but in Saya's mind it had a much worse bite to it. Doesn't she know how quickly she could be killed facing Diva or any of her Chevaliers? How can she not understand...?] [Saya just turns away, wiping messily at her tears.] Yes, Jeanne, that's what you're supposed to do. Because this is my fight. My responsibility.

I won't! [ Her hands slip away, but she stands with her shoulders square. ] We're all in this together. If she's a danger, it's not just to you, and you can't think everyone-- [ She gestures strongly with her arm to the side; she doesn't care how she just slammed her elbow into the door frame. ] --ah! That everyone is just going to... sit on the sidelines.

What if she doesn't even want to hurt people? What if she just wants to... live? [ If only she sounded more convincing in this, but she had to try to find the humanity in everyone. Even someone like Diva. Perhaps especially so... ] You have needs, and she does, too. Maybe she has friends she wants to protect, too?

Don't say that! [Saya shakes her head hard, as if trying to keep the words from reaching her.] She took two fathers and a little brother away from me. She has to be stopped.

[Another sniffle, and Saya's voice and posture harden.] She will be stopped.

[For a second she thinks she might say more, but no. She's exhausted and miserable, not having fed properly (ugh), and just wants to lay down. So she starts walking away, hunching over, swiping angrily at the tears on her chin.]

[ Jeanne stood there, utterly amazed at her own stupidity. She not only managed to put her foot in her mouth, but cram it down so far she'll be choking on boot polish for a week.

She can't even look at her friend's back as she walks away. Can't even call after her when she hears the footsteps echo down the hall. Can't even stay standing when she hears the door shut hard.

Way to go, Jeanne. Just goes to show that she really doesn't understand anything at this point. ]
