[ Who would have thought that something as simple as a bath would spell their doom? All they wanted was a nice night without the threat of something evil lurking around the corner and they aren't even granted that. It's disheartening, heart-wrenching, and all too tragic. If they can't even enjoy a simple night together... then there's no telling what the future holds for them. Not only does it seem like they're back at square one, her heart feels like shattering into tiny pieces as she listens to her lover call himself a failure.
He's not. None of this is his fault. None of this will ever be his fault. It absolutely destroys her to see Ajax go from a man confident enough to take on the whole world to a guy wretched with guilt for something he didn't even do. She wants to burst into tears but for Ajax's sake, she's determined to remain strong. After taking another deep breath to control her tears, Yoimiya pulls her head away from his shoulder to look at him, bringing her hand over to the side of his face to gently stroke his cheek. ]
Me too. I heard a voice telling me to wake up and before I knew it, a tiny star fell into my hands and I finally came to my senses. Whatever that was, it saved us in the nick of time.
[ If that mysterious power was even a second later... she wouldn't be alive to converse with Ajax. But she refrains from sharing that thought, poor Ajax has been through enough and he doesn't need to feel any more guilty than he already is. She takes another deep breath in an attempt to gather her thoughts. ]
I... I'm still trying to wrap my mind around this, it felt like I was unconscious the whole time, like she locked my mind away from my body. The last thing I remember seeing before I woke up was water, it felt like I was endlessly sinking down in the ocean.
