It depends on the severity of the crime. [ she thinks that some people will never be better, but she wasn't there to know what kind of criminals were being tortured.

she closes her eyes. ]

I hope it was at least quick for how senseless and unwarranted those deaths were.

[teenrebellion]

INTERLUDE

They wouldn't tell us what the supposed crimes were. It didn't matter to anyone there.
For some them, I think it might have been.

[ definitely not all of them, but it was bad enough without dwelling on that. ]

[ravenry]

[ she frowns. ]

I do not think I would like it on that planet. I am sorry you had to experience that and even more that you had suffer for it.

[teenrebellion]

INTERLUDE

Then you have better taste then all of those people. Not that I doubted that.

[ he pauses because the instinct is to say it's okay, but it clearly isn't. ]

INTERLUDE

We'll be okay. We made it back well enough.
Just be careful if they take you out on some mission like it, okay?

[ravenry]

I think you're less foolish than some of the others, so I'll trust you'll be better.

[ physically, at least, but he is normie enough that she doesn't know how he's adapting after witnessing that much murder. ]

But it is not easy to witness that much death for anyone.

[teenrebellion]

[ he almost laughs at that. ]

INTERLUDE

That's a great endorsement, thanks.

[ don't be rude kazuki

but no, he takes a second to respond to the latter part. ]

INTERLUDE

No, it wasn't. That's probably going to haunt my nightmares forever.

[ravenry]

[ that last message makes her expression dim. it's expected, but she will continue not to like what happened.

after some hesitation, she reaches over and touches the edge of one of his sleeves. ]

[teenrebellion]

[ ...it surprises him, but he doesn't pull away. this time, he responds out loud. ]

I'll be okay. It'll just take a while.

[ravenry]

[ she nods after a moment and takes her hand back. time heals some wounds. ]

Wounds like that take more time than most.

[teenrebellion]

Yeah... but the good thing is that we don't have to handle it alone. We all went through it together.

[ravenry]

It was good that you had other people for support. It is good you still have them.
