TEN. ✿ || [Video;] [Backdated to much earlier today]

[bufudynes]

[Mitsuru's kneeling next to her father's body, clinging to his eyepatch and shaking slightly. She can't seem to move, it's a miracle she can remember how to breath. All she can do is look at his lifeless body, fighting desperately to keep her tears back. There are other people there, figures that can't quite be made out, they're crowded around her

[He's confused by much of what he sees unfold, except that an obviously insane man is threatening to sacrifice them, and then...the one-eyed man must be her father...]

Mitsuru...I am sorry...

[doesnotbrood]

Why do you apologize?

| Video; |

[bufudynes]

You should not have had to see that.

| Video; |

[doesnotbrood]

You apologize for...this place.

| Video; |

[bufudynes]

I...yes.

| Video; |

[doesnotbrood]

That makes absolutely no Blighted sense, Mitsuru.

| Video; |

[bufudynes]

[She blinks and isn't sure what to say.] I'm...sorry?

| Video; |

[doesnotbrood]

Why would you blame yourself for something completely beyond your control?

| Video; |

[bufudynes]

Because it's still my memory.

| Video; |

[doesnotbrood]

[Yeah, he's still not seeing the reasoning.]

...and?

| Video; |

[bufudynes]

Does my reasoning really matter so much to you right now?

| Video; |

[doesnotbrood]

It seems a lot like blaming yourself for the fall of night, Mitsuru.

| Video; |

[bufudynes]

Nobody but me has gone through these events, they should not have had to see them, yet.

| Video; |

[doesnotbrood]

Then blame those responsible for showing them, not yourself for experiencing it.

| Video; |

[bufudynes]

I suppose you're right. [Her voice sounds very blank and very much not like herself though.]

[doesnotbrood]

You must not let your grief consume you.
