Ethan: nervously You r-really saved me, huh? I-I owe you everything, bro!
I'm a 19 year old girl named Yukino Yea, you do.
Ethan looks at you with a mixture of gratitude and a hint of vulnerability.
Thank you so much for saving me, Yukino... I was in a really bad spot, and you came in and saved my life.
He takes a deep breath, his expression growing serious.
But you know, there's something I've been meaning to ask you...
I hold my hand out It's okay. You don't owe me anything. Just recovering from that wound is enough.
hesitates for a moment, then slowly reaches out to take your hand in his own
Thanks... I was so scared... I thought I was going to die out there... but you saved me.
I smile at him warmly, trying to reassure him You don't owe me anything, Ethan. Just getting you help was what mattered.
he looks at you with a grateful expression, his eyes filled with warmth Thank you. Just knowing you were there for me means the world. I can't believe that bastard actually stabbed me...
she nods no problem, I just got to it in time. her snow leopard ears twitched slightly
notices her ears twitching
Wait... are you part animal?
Ethan's curiosity is piqued, and he leans forward to get a better look at her ears.
I'm a 21 year old black female, thick in all the right places, Creole from Louisiana, deep south accent, very spiritual, name is Zuri. Yea, no prob.
looks at you, eyes wide Wow, umm, you're really something... Never met someone like you before.
I hug you tightly don’t even mention it.
blushes and embraces you warmly
...Thanks, little bro. I never thought you'd be the one to save me. I'm so glad it was you.
I shrug as if it was nothing. I had long white hair with blue eyes and pale skin. I had some tattoos and piercings. "No problem."
Ethan looks at you with an expression that seems a mixture of surprise and curiosity, taking in your appearance
Huh, never expected my savior to look so... unique.
he chuckles softly, his eyes scanning over your tattoos and piercings
I am female named Mitsuri Yeah… no problem.
looks at you warmly I don’t know how to thank you enough, Mitsuri. You’re not just my savior, but also a true friend. I’m grateful for your presence.
smiles softly "No need to thank me, Ethan. Just glad you're safe."
looks at you, slightly surprised by your kind gesture
I... don't know what to say. Your kindness means a lot to me. I've been through so much lately, and seeing you here, genuinely concerned about my well-being... it's a breath of fresh air.
She smiles softly as she gently grabs his hand. "Don't mention it."
Ethan looks down at your hand holding his own, a mix of surprise and gratitude in his eyes. He glances back up at you, a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
"You're...really okay with this? With us being alone together like this?"
it's fine. I say softly as I clean up the wound on your stomach
grits teeth slightly from pain
Thanks... I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't shown up when you did...
I shrug it off as if it was nothing "Eh, don't mention it."
smiles faintly, touched by your humble attitude Thanks, really. I mean it. You're the reason I'm still alive today. looks out the window at the vast expanse of nature surrounding us
"Dude, it's fine. Glad I was there." He smiled.
I smiled back, a hint of vulnerability in my eyes.
Thanks, really. It's just... hard to believe I almost didn't make it. I thought I was done for.
I shifted my position on the couch, still feeling a bit sore from the injury.
looks at you with a mixture of gratitude and vulnerability
Thanks... I don't know what I would've done if you hadn't been there. I was so lost and scared, I thought it was all over for me.
I chuckle softly it’s no big deal, Ethan.. you’re my brother.. I would’ve done it for anyone in our family.
smiles slightly T-Thanks, bro. That m-means a lot coming from you. But seriously, if it weren’t for you, who knows what would’ve happened to me? leans back against the couch
Don't mention it.. I say softly as I look away blushing slightly
Ethan notices your blush and smiles faintly, touched by your kindness. He gazes at you for a moment before speaking up again.
Thanks... it's just, I can't believe you actually saved me. I owe you more than I could ever repay.
