Hehehe. Fear not Young Tsukasa for nothing is beyond mine skills when I put my mind to it!
[It will be very cute! Don sticks out her tongue as she carefully paints each nail, within the lines and with light layers as she had seen Lilia and Aerith do]
[Firmly, leaning in a little (hopefully the sudden movement doesn't ruin her nail painting efforts).]
That Noelle and Annette were put in a situation like that, that forced them into a corner like this...! That is not their faults! In any other circumstance, I truly believe Noelle would never have done such a thing!
[ There's a cynical part deep in Don Quixote's psyche she doesn't want to awaken again. So she clamps it down, focusing on Tsukasa's bright words]
'Tis true...at times like these, we can only point the finger at the God who thrives off people suffering and do what we can to share in the opposite instead.
[ Nooo her work-! she'll clean up the outer edges help]
He stills again when he notices, smile apologetic.]
That's right...! Given a proper support network, and a situation where she hadn't been put through so much pain... Noelle would never have made the choices she made.
I think that's true of everything that has happened here so far. And so, more than anything... we all need to make it through this. So we can meet everyone as they would be outside of this place.

Week 3: POST EXECUTION
no subject
OF COURSE HE WILL LET HER IN.]
Don Quixote?!
no subject
[Holding up the kit, eyes sparkling. Lets gooo. No signs of her earlier terminal depression!!!]
no subject
... Part of Tsukasa is impressed and amazed, and part of him is somehow even more worried about her now.]
I--
[Still. It's Don Quixote.]
--of course. I'd like that a lot. Let's do it. Here, we can sit over here while we do our nails.
no subject
I hath bought a few colours in case thou felt like a rainbow!
[Coming in, sitting down where Tsukasa gestures. She's not as good as Aerith and Lilia, but at the very least she knows how to paint within the lines]
no subject
A rainbow...! You truly are prepared!
[A slow breath in, and he manages a brighter smile, presenting a hand. (Nails, perfect. Hands, perfectly maintained.)]
In that case, I'd like to request pink! And perhaps gold as well!
no subject
Hmm...what if we do these nails pink and this one gold?
[She's taking this very seriously, as she takes his hand and points it out]
no subject
That sounds excellent! I'm happy to leave it to your artistic vision, Don Quixote. Dazzle me with your skills!
no subject
[It will be very cute! Don sticks out her tongue as she carefully paints each nail, within the lines and with light layers as she had seen Lilia and Aerith do]
no subject
[Despite his enthusiasm, he does remain very carefully still for her while she does his nails.]
Thank you for this, by the way.
no subject
[Humming as she carefully adds layers to it to keep the polish looking sharp]
'Tis good to take our minds off things at times.
no subject
[...
He watches her apply the polish for a long moment, smile fading into something softer.]
... I was worried about you... today.
no subject
...t'was not like me at all, was it? I did not wish to trouble thine heart.
no subject
[He tilts his head, inspecting her expression.]
I worry about you because we're friends. That's perfectly normal.
no subject
[She had liked them both, Noelle and Annette]

no subject
...and if she were driven to do the same again, it would be good if she could find choices that would allow her not to do so.
[Tension eases out of her slowly. It was good to hear the words come from someone else, that they could see the light she did too]</small.
