"I don't mind at all, Beta. Or should I call you Cass or something? Swing as Cassandra is your name..."
English
-
"Of course...y-you've been a good enough f-friend for that..." She smiled, her lavender eyes looking into yours, she was grateful "um...w-what would you want to do?"
-
"Whatever you want to do, Cass. It's probably better for you to pick, get your mind off things."
-
She nodded, whimpering as she limped down the hall, her leg covered in blood and oil from where she was stabbed between organic and inorganic
-
"Shouldn't we clean you up?" [b]Ry follows her.[/b]
-
"Please...c-can you fix that?" She haltingly sat down on a couch, trying to keep her damaged leg off of it so Ry wouldn't have to clean the couch
-
"Yeah. Easy fix." [b]She leaves, then comes back with a few tools. She wipes it off, then reconnects the wires and nerves. It stung, but didn't really hurt at all.[/b]
-
"Th-thank you" She leaned back on the couch, sighing, and covering herself with a blanket
-
"It's no problem." [b]She sits down beside her.[/b] "He didn't... Touch you at all, did he?"
-
She went silent "no.....but....he made me...he made me touch her" She cut it off with a sob, leaning into Ry
-
"By the Sun... That jerk... I'll get him. He won't be breathing much longer. Be it of his own volition or of mine."
-
She was silent, leaning into you and shaking somewhat "L-lets talk about s-something else"
-
"Yeah... Anything you want to know about me? I'm an open book."
-
"Do you love Leone?" She asked softly, but kind of like the way a child would ask their mother
-
"Yes. I love him a lot. With all my heart."
-
"I....I know you know about what I've done...... Ry.....I...I'm sorry, but I love Nyxon too, and.....there are also many reasons why I cannot wait...today one of them"
-
"I understand. It's alright. I'm just... I guess I'm just a little jealous, you know? I don't want to rush me and Leone's relationship too much, or else I probably would've done what you've done... You see, us Solarians are biologically coded for the females to want children, but our religion says to wait until marriage, so my body screams one thing, mind screams another. Make sense?"
-
"I.....I understand actually...I understand perfectly My....new body can't mature without the help of a parent's soul....and since my parents are dead I can't fully develop until I have children of my own..... And Nyxon's been there for me when you or Alex couldn't be, and Nyxon even saved my life when I first showed up here"
-
(that was Q, actually. Nyxon sorta just baby-sat for a little and asked her out for pizza.)

"I get it. I really do. I can see where you're coming from. But you need to develop your emotions more. It'd kill me to see you get your heart broken. Not saying Nyxon's a bad guy or anything, but you get my point."
-
"I do.....but this is the dojo, anything could happen....and its better to 'have loved and lost, than never loved at all'....right?"
-
"I have a feeling you just quoted something. If you did, I don't know what it's from. But Beta... You just need to slow your roll. On everything. You're taking life to fast. You just need to stop and take things slower, alright?"
-
"No....I get it....it's just.....I'm scared. I could even say I'm jealous of you, since you seem strong enough to defend yourself......I'm scared there will be a day when I'm killed.....or taken off like alex was"
-
"Me? Strong? I struggle to carry you... I can't even take one bullet without dying... You took two. Cass, I'm weak. Very weak. I've only survived because I've laid low. You're much stronger than I am. The only thing I'd beat you in is a spelling bee."
