Seventy Third Memory

[guardianhime]

It doesn't make a lot of sense to have everyone forgive each other...than make enemies of your best friends. This month is just as crazy as the rest, and there's still a little over half a month to go.

So even if I win, I still lose?

Like I'd cheat at running or sports. That would be lame, especially when I'm confident in my own abilities.

I could have poisoned you.

[princess_crow]

Don't excuse me. Do you have any idea what would have happened if you took a bite? Death would be preferable.

[guardianhime]

Then it's a good thing I didn't. Nothing happened though. I know it's not an easy thing to deal with...knowing...what could have happened on a day like that.

[guardianhime]

Like back home...even if I find it pretty sad. That's...for the protection of others, though.

[hiscountess]

And for their own sake. Would anyone want to continue an existence that brings pain to the people you used to love?

[guardianhime]

No...they wouldn't.
