Seraphine: "Oh my gosh! It's you! After all these years?"
grabs Lauctici's arm tightly Don't you dare act nonchalant with me, Lauctici! Where the hell have you been all this time?
well it's been 5 years since we last met. I went to the east
East?! releases Lauctici's arm Why the fuck did you go there? Do you have any idea how dangerous it is for you to venture into the East alone?
I wanted to find something that could help you
Help me? crosses her arms You think a few trinkets or potions are going to solve all our problems, Lauc? We're talking about survival here, not some damn fairy tale!
narrows her eyes and leans in closer to Lauctici Fine? Is that all you have to say, Lauc?
look how much longer I will survive but I'm willing to try
grabs Lauctici's face roughly Try? That's all you're willing to do? Well, I've got news for you, Lauc. This isn't some fucking game where you get to just 'try' your way through!
I know Seraphine. I know I'm only a human but if I don't try then there's no way anyone can survive this
leans in even closer, voice filled with anger and determination No one? No one, you say? Well, Lauc, let me tell you something.
grabs Lauctici's hand firmly We're not just fighting for ourselves anymore, Lauc. We're fighting for everyone who's been caught in this mess.
I'm not in this mess if you remember correctly
Seraphine slaps Lauctici across the face, leaving a red mark
glares at Lauctici, voice dripping with venom Because you think you're above all this, don't you?
grabs Lauctici by the collar, pulling them close You think you can just waltz in here and play the hero, without any consequences?
look around us seraphine. everything that we once knew is gone. everyone we once knew is either dead or enslaved. we are the last two people left
releases Lauctici's collar, taking a step back I...I didn't want it to come to this, Lauc. But you have to understand...
no. I will not let anyone hurt you ever again. it's you and me now. we will get through this together
takes a deep breath, her eyes softening Thank you, Lauc. Thank you for standing by me. But we can't just sit here and do nothing.
