[she nods, because a few people have told her that tonight, but all the same:]

You don't have anything to apologize for.

[aitou]

[He can't really argue with that, but.]

Even so...

[The sentiment holds true.]

[allomantic]

[she gets what he means, and after a moment, though it's half hearted:]

...I appreciate it.

[and that's honest, even if her vibes are bad.]

[aitou]

[A little nod, in response.

After a moment, uncertainly:]

...Do you want to be alone?

[allomantic]

[quickly:]

No.

[in most situations, she would be embarrassed by the immediacy of that response regardless of how true it is, but - the last thing she wants is to be alone.]

[aitou]

[If nothing else, he doesn't seem inclined to judge her; he just nods, accepting that as it is.]

I didn't know you were close.

[allomantic]

I don't see the point in making such things clear to others.

[she's a private enough person that she would have preferred it not to come out - but of course, if they didn't discuss it at that moment, they never would have had a chance. she doesn't regret it, but it feels strange knowing everyone saw something that felt so intimate.]

[aitou]

[Yasusada hums softly, in acknowledgment.]

There are some swords like that, too. [Yasusada knows that, even if he doesn't understand it; he and Kashuu have always been pretty open about being close, even with their dumb tsun arguments sometimes.]

[allomantic]

[she nods.]

Just like there are different kinds of people, I imagine.

[aitou]

I suppose so.

[...She probably already knows this, but.]

He saved us, when we disappeared. A few weeks ago.

[allomantic]

[from the way she blinks, it seems like she might not.]

Saved you?

[aitou]

[A nod.]

There was a room with a stage, and it showed us horrible illusions. He escaped, and got the rest of us out of there. I don't think we would've made it out without him.

[allomantic]

...That sounds like him.

[there's a little wave of both fondness and sorrow.]
