she is about to speak again but the next question from his mouth stuns her. Rosamund blinks wide a moment. Then deflates, eyes downcast with a soft smile. She tucks a hair behind her ear.]
I see. You've also met Gerard and Ylfa, have you? Don't tell me any of the others have been along, too...
[SURELY NOT PIB. jk he would win murdergame and kill a god.]
[ his experience is a little different from rin's, since he was alive... much longer. so he's more aware of who these others are. but still, he shakes his head. ]
Just those two. ...We were teammates.
[ his beloved froggystyle. ]
Ylfa talked about you, but I wasn't sure from just your name.
Then you were very lucky. They're the best. [Sure sure, they had their failings and would keep having their failings. But Rosamund wouldn't trade either for the world, and she's certain they would have proved their worth to anyone they worked with, in the Neverafter and beyond.]
Well, that's me! Princess Rosamund du Prix of Reverie. [she makes a fussy little gesture, some mannerism employed only at court.] I don't know that I can make up for them, just by myself. But if they were good partners to you, I hope that we can be someday, too.
...I'm sure you can. She found you very dependable.
[ does not mention that she came up in part because they had to talk about how their team completely lacked in women who could help ylfa buy a training bra ]
It wasn't easy. [ he says, as though to preempt rosamund's concerns, or address them anyway. ] But we got through it. We can do it again here.
[this is exactly how she wants to be remembered actually]
I'm only sorry I couldn't have been there with her too. We would have cleaned up.
[Ignorant of their serial killing crimes]
Absolutely, we can. [Hands on hips! Chin up!] I don't care what kind of ultra-super-murderdome death game the auditors have set up for us here. We're going to crush it, and then we'll crush them. Deal?
