[ how much of it is logical and how much is..... well, the worst has happened to her. she's already lost everything. so she can't torture herself thinking what if aerith dies? what if she fails to save her? what if she fails cloud? what does she do without them? because she's living that reality. there's no what ifs to torture herself with ]
[ how about this. how about instead, she grabs that hand with both of hers and gives it an alpha squeeze ]
Just don't write Yuu off so quickly, okay? He's stupid, but he's good at some things. Like fighting.
[he looks down at his bloodied hand clasped between hers, the contact shocking him -- because it's so very warm, and so very human.
humans. he hates them so much. but. he loves them too. as much as he's allowed to -- maybe even further. they can do so much more than what he can at times, and he thinks the evidence is here with Yuffie.]
...Yeah.
[to both kanda being stupid and good at fighting. who is lavi to be so scared when HE only has TWO tiny WEAPONS.]
[ i was so busy being dramatique i forgot he was bleeding. anyway, she will hold onto it. his bloody hand. give it another alpha squeeze, then withdraws one hand to pull out some of her cloth strip bandages and start wrapping it. keeping that physical contact going. she's not so good at the emotional stuff, but this she can do ]
We'll figure it out. Kay?
[ how to throw suspicion off of kanda, how to deal with robin.... one way or another ]
[ also how to get lavi a real weapon that isn't a fcking toothpick ]
[if she asked lavi, then he'd say she's pretty good with emotional stuff too? he lets her bind his hand, even though it is a dumb self-inflicted wound, also ig there is a bruise on his cheek that's been there the whole time thanks to kanda. he flexes his hand once she's done bandaging,]
[ she is no aerith, that's for sure. better at punching her way through things. she gives his dumb bandaged hand another squeeze, and then he can be free of handholding if he wishes ]
Mmhmm.
[ lavi getting punched is normal kanda behavior, so that's fine ]
So, I haven't had any luck finding my partner. [ she's starting to wonder if she ever will ] But like I said, I know who yours is. And now that we know you can get a new partner if yours dies, did you change your mind?
Just to let him know if I’m willing to take the risk or not.
[so kanda can kick his ass when Lavi is in danger of dropping Dead]
…But that’s fine, since I am thinking about it. [she can tell his partner that he is!!!!] Which, speaking of partners — how many people have you narrowed yours down to?
The wish can't be used to unafflict someone. But you can wish for someone's life, I think. [ she heard this second hand ]
[ also waiting on backtags so im sweating ]
I'm wondering if I should ask for another hint. I don't think it's Mathis or Ashlyn, 'cause I would have found out by now... there are a lot of other teenagers here, though.
he looks troubled at the mention because he does like both mathis and yuffie very much... but he knows both of them are right to feel the way they do,]
Mm. I can ask whoever else is on your list too. We could get more people if we each talk to three.
[he'll go to the board and get a pencil and draw a sketch of the room from memory on the back of the rulebook... which he'll tear off and hand to Yuffie later]

no subject
...I'd have to talk about it with Yuu. [or maybe he'll spitefully keep it from him but that's a dangerous opinion to have right now,]
Any chance you could tell me who it is now, and then I could approach 'em later?
no subject
Talk it over with him? Why? [ out of curiosity, she didn't think kanda was interested in partner stuff at all ]
Well, they're looking. So not now, 'cause I don't know how many people they told this week. But I can let them know you're thinking about it.

It's not Mathis. [just confirming, maybe yuffie already knows this through backtags] Or Tsumi. And it's not Yuu either.
no subject
[ hmmm ]
You mean Izutsumi? That was one of my guesses. [ she smiles a little at 'it's not yuu' for some reason. dingus. ]

You really wanna help me find mine that badly?
.... Speaking of which, I haven't used my power yet this week. I'm thinking about trying that room that you and Totty were talking about.
[ if he didn't already guess that was her thought by how specific she asked them to be ]
no subject
[it's not a shitposty curse and lavi will forever be envious of yuffie for it]
I could try and draw a sketch of the room for you.
no subject
[ ... ]
Okay, but do it before tomorrow.
no subject
[he'll go to the board and get a pencil and draw a sketch of the room from memory on the back of the rulebook... which he'll tear off and hand to Yuffie later]
Lemme know who you want me to ask too, yeah?
no subject
[ maybe gojo gotta wait for that pc ]
Thanks. [ taking it!!! ]
no subject
I like both of 'em, but I don't know if they'd trust me enough to tell... But I'll ask them anyway, just to see.
no subject
Do you think 21 counts as "on the younger side"? [ spoken like a true teenager ]
no subject
Guess it depends on who gave you the hint... Pesto seems young, Famine and War seem old.
no subject
[ makes this :T face ]
They used the mom voice on me! Can you believe that?
no subject
Doesn't everyone use it on you? I bet Kate does.
[AND SHE'S YOUNG]
no subject
No, Kate respects me and looks up to me!
