[* 𝒌𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨. @fatedronin]

hope .. there’s a million ifs anyone could throw around at any time.

you, though? you’ve saved the island more times than you could count on one hand.

ㅤ
ㅤㅤ if i´d tried a little harder —— maybe i could do something .

i completely bailed on helping the order when the status on the origin came through .

i feel like i didn´t do .. anything this time around and i should have .
ㅤ

[* 𝒌𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨. @fatedronin]

and that’s just it, blue. you didn’t have any time to prepare like you usually do, it’s not your fault that that’s the case.

[𝅙𝅙𝓛𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝓑l͟u͟𝐞 . @rebelkitten]

ㅤ
ㅤㅤ i don´t know .. we used to be able to stand a chance against the threats because we had time to prepare for what we already knew was coming .

and now that we don´t —— well ... it´s ... just look around 、it´s terrible for everyone .
ㅤ

[* 𝒌𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨. @fatedronin]

hey, absolutely not.

( a hand placed to her cheek, resting. )

you’re a lot of things — all good — but useless is not one of them. not now, not ever.

[𝅙𝅙𝓛𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝓑l͟u͟𝐞 . @rebelkitten]

ㅤ
ㅤㅤ i´m glad there´s at least some constants .. including my extreme case of art block .

i´m so close to whatever i can vividly see 、but the moment it becomes clear it just changes to something that i can´t understand ...

i can´t help but feel kinda useless right now .
ㅤ

[* 𝒌𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨. @fatedronin]

and i’m just as proud of you. that’s something that will never change in this stupid world of constantly changing things.

[𝅙𝅙𝓛𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝓑l͟u͟𝐞 . @rebelkitten]

ㅤ
ㅤㅤ i believe you .
i did all of this for her after all 、all ava ever wanted to do was make a little trouble and change the world .

and i have done both in tandem a few times now 、i know she´s proud of that 、even if she didn´t get to achieve those goals herself .
ㅤ

[* 𝒌𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨. @fatedronin]

she would. i swear.

[𝅙𝅙𝓛𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝓑l͟u͟𝐞 . @rebelkitten]

ㅤ

ㅤ

[* 𝒌𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨. @fatedronin]

she would, blue. i promise.

[𝅙𝅙𝓛𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝓑l͟u͟𝐞 . @rebelkitten]

i´ve done a lot that my young self would probably hate .
ㅤ

[* 𝒌𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨. @fatedronin]

( placing a kiss to her nose, nodding. )

little you would be so proud to see what big you has become.

[𝅙𝅙𝓛𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝓑l͟u͟𝐞 . @rebelkitten]

ㅤ
ㅤㅤ yeah 、little me definitely thought so .
