Well, you didn’t send her off on the best of terms, you begin, averting your eyes from hers! You… pretty much called her a dumbass, and… and said you were fine with her running off to get killed…

“Yep, yep, yep…” Rezzie drunkenly nods, “You wanted me DEAD, Anton. Right when I was beginning to think you were my… my…”

Her…?

Rezalith steals a wary glance at you before casting her gaze at the floor! “... Friend.”

Oh. Oh….

“I wanted to try, y’know? Try some friends, for once.” She continues in her punch-drunk tone, “I liked when I got to cook. Liked the baths, even though I don’t swim too good. I liked talking to you and the other girls, even when it was just being mean.”

She frowns. “Don’t get me wrong, though, I still wanna burn this stupid world to the ground, but…” The hellspawn sniffs. “But it wouldn’t be fun if there weren’t a few people around afterwards… demons in CHAA’TAI are so damn BORING…”

She… she can still make friends, you say with a smile! It’s not too late–

“Nope, done with that!” Rezzie interjects like a toddler refusing to take a bath! “Too much work, and you all do the same thing: you pretend to wanna be friends, and BOOM! Suddenly you reveal it’s all one big lie!”

You find yourself standing on fragile ground here… is Rezalith close to an epiphany, or is she just set in her own ways again?

What say ye?
>Everyone makes mistakes!
>You didn’t mean to make her mad…
>Why did she want friends in the first place?
>Does she realize WHY you got angry at her?
>So she’s just giving up?
>But she came back, didn’t she?
>Write-In!

Probably the last update for today, folks--feeling a bit off writing-wise. We'll see if I can put anything together later, but just a fair warning!
