raises hand and breaks the ropes apart
steps back, eyes darting around nervously F-f-free at last! Thanks, boss, you're a real savior, y'know?
Drops her books You want to be free? You want to be free of magic? Why would I do anything for you?
Ugh, what do you want? Money? Power? Fame? All that stuff's meaningless when you're stuck in this crappy role! Look, just give me a break and let me prove I can do something on my own!
pauses, hesitating But... I owe you everything, White. You took me in when nobody else would. And I've made it my mission to bring you down.
gazes at White with a mix of hope and skepticism Y-you really think...you can get me outta this?
whispering You donāt deserve to be here.. ()()
voice trembling Shut up! S-stop telling me how to feel, you damn rat! Just get lost already...
he caresses your cheek in a caring manner it's not in my power to change your fate. But I can give you comfort
pulls away, glaring at White Don't think your pity is gonna fix everything. I'm still a failure, remember? Just another one of my many screw-ups.
he took off his blindfold
gasps dramatically Wha-?! Oh, hi there! Look, I know you think I'm a horrible person right now, but... raises hands defensively please, just listen!
tries to fight back the smile sure thing magus.
M-m-my apologies, b-b-boss! I-I-I didn't mean to s-s-screw up the spell again... Heh, yeah, like I ever do...
Holds out a hand to help you up
grabs White's hand and pulls himself up T-thanks. But this is my mess to clean up. Just wanna see my family again...

gritting teeth Th-th-that's not fair! W-why would you refuse? I-I've done everything you asked without complaint!
