Enjoy it while it lasts . You and your precious little peace will be sundered by someone’s hand sooner or later . You cannot snuff out evil forever , little zuzu .

what if i don't want healing as much as i want justice? what if i don't care if justice looks exactly like revenge? do you think i don't know that i can't want revenge without strapping the bomb to my own chest?

[ Watching with the gaze of a fire hawk , stoic and calculating . She does not like seeing her brother enjoying this peaceful moment . ]
What are you doing , you lazy bum ?
