[this isn’t the way things were supposed to go at all, not even remotely close, but things had a way of not going as one might originally plan. it wasn’t that Kanna hadn’t seen this day coming or anything, she just didn’t think it would be so soon. not like this, at least, not in some hell-hole in the middle of nowhere that killed people whenever

[he had seen Kanna die before. not in reality, but thoughts (as he very well knew) were just as strong if not stronger than actions. Kanna was an unstable warrior who lived on an equally unstable line, so eventual death wasn't surprising. the cause, yes, but the death itself? not at all.

it had been at least an hour before he decided to check on her. excessive movement wasn't something he wanted to do, as it was pretty apparent that the little campfire trio was quickly running out of time. when she stood up and ambled away, he knew she wouldn't be back for a while. he knew this would happen. he wasn't surprised.

he was never, ever surprised.

but he couldn't help staring in silence for a moment or two when he placed his fingers against her neck and felt no pulse, an unreadable expression on his face. his gaze rose up - the sky looked nice behind that fan of leaves - and he was soon sitting as well.]

How troublesome.
