I'm a good judge of character! Plus, you spend so much time following me around.... I think I'm starting to get a pretty good sense of you.

[ she makes him sound like a needy puppy.... ]

Mmm, but I don't think it's about being invincible. I think it's about never giving up, even when things seem hopeless.

[shaft]

That's a good attitude to have—I often think that hope never dies as long as you're alive.

[ ... ]

Though, this place has made me question the likelihood of that.

[feytality]

I think that..... you can still have hope, even if you're not alive.

[ ... ]

Huh? What do you mean?

[ that's a really soft sentiment and it makes claude smile

good thing he's about to ruin the mood! ]

I always thought that if I was clever and smart enough, I could escape any dire situation or turn it in my favour. But being here is quite humbling.

[ what is he means is that they could die at any time and be helpless to stop it ]

[feytality]

[ is it soft??]

[ anyway maya is in optimism mode so there's no defeating her ]

Don't count yourself out just yet, Mr. von Riegan. I've been in even more dire situations like this... kinda.

You can probably still slip by.

[ gives her a worried look... ]

You've had quite the exciting life, haven't you?

[feytality]

Oh, you know how it is.....

[ stop worrying ]

Anyway, my point is! You're smarter and tougher than me, so you'll be fine.

[shaft]

Can I get that in writing?

[ a teasing smile ]

[feytality]

You'll just have to take my word for it.

[ nudges ]

[shaft]

All right. I know you'd never go back on your word.

[ pokes her ]

[feytality]

[ bumps her shoulder against his side bc she's fucking short ]

So treasure it forever!
