Shadow_Voyager

Shadow_Voyager
You too?
Yup. narrows eyes I didn't like that you forced us into an unfair fight. It was uncomfortable. And it's bad for our relationship with you.

Shadow_Voyager
nods Agreed. I'm not sure if we can do much without starting a war between the regions though.

Shadow_Voyager
“I know.”

Shadow_Voyager
blushes Yeah, but I couldn't just let you get hurt because of me!
