165th shot

[guardianed]

My father studied alchemy, and when I was young, he frightened me

[andherwrench]

That's sad.

[guardianed]

It's just the way it happened.

[andherwrench]

So you don't miss him at all?

[guardianed]

I don't think of him often.

I never liked merely being my father's daughter.

Lieutenant.

[snapofmyfingers]

She's cursed, then.

[snapofmyfingers]

His last thoughts-

[draculinaseras]

I'm sorry that you're without a father too.

[guardianed]

My mother died a long time before my father did- neither of my parents are around. I don't feel the loss much, if at all.

Your father has also passed away?

[draculinaseras]

He was killed. My mother too. Men broke into my house. I think that the knew my father was a police officer. He tried to save my mother. I know that he did. She told me to hide. Even though she was scared she was looking after me. I always wanted to be as brave and strong as both of them.

[guardianed]

...I'm sorry to hear that. Deaths like that...are hard to get over.

[private]

You are a strong woman, Seras.

[guardianed]

He wouldn't have dealt with military personnel in the first place, Kimblee.

Not in the slightest. Where did you get that idea?

[guardianed]

Obviously.

You don't know anything about what it was like. He shut himself up in his study so often there were days I didn't see him at all. He always looked unnatural when he did surface.

You have no right to tell me I wasn't a loving enough daughter to a man you never met.

A lot of blood...?

[guardianed]

He'd coughed it up. Something must have ruptured.

[sulky_skullkey]

Ah... Blood... Spleen, I think...?

[guardianed]

Perhaps. I wasn't paying much attention to the doctor's report at the time. I didn't take care of any of the details.
