First Investigation; Tenn

[laytorest]

[Sometime in the midst of their investigation when neither Yor nor Tenn are occupied in particular, she'll go find the young man, looking around with a certain amount of urgency until she locates him.]

Tenn...?

Comments

[incompletely]

...Yeah. You're right.

[ He glances up at Yor. ]

I think you're one of those people, you know.

1/2

[laytorest]

[Oh. It gives her a little pause, clearly touched to hear that.]

[laytorest]

...Thank you. I think the same way about you.

I don't know how much I can do, but- whatever I can, I'll try to protect you.

[incompletely]

Yeah. I'll look out for you, too. I may not be a combatant or anything like that, but...

I don't want to let anyone else face the same fate as Samidare. It feels like...I failed her.

[laytorest]

...Yes. I know what you mean.

[incompletely]

[ He nods, at that. Sad solidarity, he supposes... ]

...I don't know who to trust here...but I'd like to believe that people like you don't mean any harm. I know you couldn't have done something like this to her.

[laytorest]

[It's touching, really, to hear that.]

...There are people I was worried about doing something like this, but... I hoped that if we threw a party, it would be harder for anyone to act.

[But it wasn't enough.]

[incompletely]

I thought the same thing.

[ It seems like a naive thought, now, to think that anything could've stopped this from happening. ]

The only thing we can do now is avenge her. We have to find out who did this.

[laytorest]

[She nods.]

Yes.

We have to.
