i say but roxana only spent a couple hours in the pod because i didn't want to think about the logistics of other people's requests and how time would work when there are only 2 pods???
anyway, all her clothes cover all her visible injuries so she's vibing. ]
There was nothing to keep up with. She shouldn't have to force herself to be more like any of us.
[He agrees with that fully, because Chinatsu is a product of peaceful times, and ironically, that's exactly what swords like him fight to provide to humans.]
...But I get why she wanted to, too. Even if we all told her there's nothing wrong with it, she's the kinda person who would wanna stand toe-to-toe with everyone around her.
I know. In this environment, she would have to adapt or she would break. I never thought her weak for coming from a peaceful world or for reacting as she did.
[ In some ways, Roxana wished she weren't someone who could take all of this in stride. ]
I agreed that she should learn how to fight.
[ For the scenario that someone would come after her life, just like today. Last night? ]
And I agreed that she should face things head on even if all she could do was look away more often than not.
[He wishes no one here could take this in stride, since it speaks volumes about them all, honestly. But he'd admired Chinatsu's resolve and strength all the same.]
It takes someone with a lot of willpower to see this kinda stuff and still want to stand up against it, I think.
[Everyone on their floor has a type of strength, he believes. That same steely backbone.]

...I hope she gave whoever went after her hell.

[ She knows there are those who wouldn't stand up after seeing half the things they've been put through here. ]
I hope she left some kind of sign. [ She better have. ] She had the will.

[Unless she just got shot like a normie or something, rip.]
no subject
[ But if she gets shot from a distance, that won't help a normie, yeah.
looks away from that stage and whatever the fuck those circle wounds are ????? I'M STILL SO ???? ]
I want to hope she took precautions.
no subject
...Yeah. Me, too. I don't think she woulda headed off to that place without some sort of plan, though... We'll have to keep an eye out tomorrow.

I don't know how I'll feel if we don't find out who took her life.
