[ She's going to guide Medb to one of the beach chairs if she's amenable, settling behind her so that she can comb through her hair with her fingers. ]
It gave me a lotta hope. Everyone was mad at Childe, but we still did work. Goin' places and bringin' back evidence. We did enough to solve it I think but...
No one wanted to accuse Mineo. And no one voted for anyone else. I think we're tired of hurtin' each other.
I know a lot of people were frustrated by last week for good reason. Everyone needs a little something to keep going, but I do think you're very refreshing for a lot of people here.
[ Realising what her words might've sounded like... ]
... Not because of Childe! There were other reasons. [ Still, she smiles at the compliment, winding her arms around Medb for a hug. ] We're here to motivate each other. That's why we tried solvin' the murder today.
[ There's definitely a spark of warmth at the concern. ]
Nothing specific, just... It ain't anyone's fault [ not entirely convincing when she says that ] but I was just tired of feelin' alone. It's kinda weird because I had no problems goin' on adventures by myself before.
It really ain't anyone's fault. I wanted something that wasn't there, but we're okay now. It was my fault for wishing that I still had my friends from home when I shoulda appreciated who I have here.
[ She turns around so she can cup Yuel's face in her hands. ]
It takes two to make one feel bad, Yuel. Even if that other person doesn't feel the same way and even if they don't have to return your feelings, that doesn't mean whatever you felt wasn't valid.
[ Yuel can't help a flood of embarrassment when Medb looks at her like that, though it quickly gives way to a quiet longing and gratitude toward Medb's concern. ]
w6 - saturday - beach
Hey, Yuel.
no subject
Medb... Sorry about today.
no subject
What exactly are you sorry for?
no subject
no subject
It went as I expected. Actually... more work was done than I thought.
[ So her expectations were very low, haha. ]
What was important to me...
[ There seems to be something that turns over in her emotions. ]
What I deserved...
[ She shakes her head. ]
no subject
Yer gonna need a long rest after this, aren't ya?
no subject
[ She's emotionally tired, but it's not in a way that makes her want to rest. ]
no subject
If ya need a sparrin' partner, I could use some exercise too. [ . . . ] Feels like we're gonna be gettin' outta here soon and we gotta be ready.
no subject
My ankle still needs to heal, but...
[ She threads her fingers in Yuel's hair. ]
Maybe later.
no subject
[ She's going to guide Medb to one of the beach chairs if she's amenable, settling behind her so that she can comb through her hair with her fingers. ]
no subject
And what did you think about tonight, Yuel? I know you didn't want to try very hard to solve it.
no subject
It gave me a lotta hope. Everyone was mad at Childe, but we still did work. Goin' places and bringin' back evidence. We did enough to solve it I think but...
No one wanted to accuse Mineo. And no one voted for anyone else. I think we're tired of hurtin' each other.
no subject
You really are optimistic.
[ She doesn't say that maliciously or anything. It's just a little tired, maybe. ]
no subject
Maybe. I wasn't feelin' that optimistic last week, but I think I need a little faith to keep going.

no subject
[ She pats Yuel on the arm before holding onto it. There's a little concern. ]
What happened last week that made you down?
[ Medb can address how much they did or didn't try solving today's murder later. ]
no subject
Nothing specific, just... It ain't anyone's fault [ not entirely convincing when she says that ] but I was just tired of feelin' alone. It's kinda weird because I had no problems goin' on adventures by myself before.
no subject
[ So much murder in so little time intensifies relationships so much. ]
It's hard not to get attached, and it's hard to be like how you used to be before.
[ ... ]
Someone made you feel alone.
no subject
[ She laughs, but it's a little awkward. ]
It really ain't anyone's fault. I wanted something that wasn't there, but we're okay now. It was my fault for wishing that I still had my friends from home when I shoulda appreciated who I have here.
[ She presses a kiss to Medb's shoulder. ]
I'm happy to have met ya.

It's okay to miss people.
no subject
... Yeah. I miss 'em. I wanna see 'em again.
Do ya have people like that too?
no subject
I suppose so.
no subject
Sounds complicated.
no subject
[ It's complicated for the one specific person she was thinking of, but it's more certain outside of that. ]
