[Ashura is among the last to reach the shores of the new settlement. Hir white robes bloodstained and hir body smudged with soot, sie is now sitting calmly near the base of a tree, with the computer on the ground next to hir.]

[Sie gives the camera a smile--a slightly weary, bittersweet smile, yes, but a smile.Ashura promised to come back safe.

[Bleeding a bit, but doesn't seem to notice it]

Ashura is fine. Ashura is sorry, there was something to do before Ashura could come here...

[candyswords]

At least you're safe... Were you able to finish what you needed to do?

[heavens_schism]

Ashura was.

Are you and your friends safe?

[kleine_beere]

Really? Shura-chan is really ok?

Hina is just fine, na no.

[heavens_schism]

Ashura is fine, and everyone is safer now.

Ashura hopes Hina-chan didn't worry too much ♥

[kleine_beere]

I worried just a little...

Shura-chan looks tired. Sie should come inside and go sleepies.

[heavens_schism]

Ashura is very tired, but... where should Ashura sleep?

[Ashura smiles sweetly at Sakamoto]

Ashura is fine. Ashura is not in--not badly injured ♥

Is Ryoma all right?

Video

[cowboyvision]

Well... that's alright then, I s'pose.

[totally doesn't quite get the whole warrior princess thing yet, smiles back at her anyway]

Of course! Takes more than a little fire to kill Sakamoto Ryoma!

[heavens_schism]

That's good. Ashura doesn't want Ashura's friends to get hurt any more... That's why Ashura had to take so long to come here!

[Quite sweet and cheerful, considering that what sie's really saying is "sorry I'm late, I had a god to fuck up"]
