.... Desdemona-sensei....
What happened to her was just... it... it was awful...
...and they attacked because it was me they were after...! But she protected us!
... even after everything she's done for us, I couldn't help her!!

*Yuma seemed surprised at first. Izumi didn't seem like the hugging type to him, but that wasn't important. With that, he gives her a small half smile, the best smile he could manage right now, as he shook his head slowly.*

Nah. Hugs are appreciated.

[She's really not, is the thing. But she can't think of anything better to do in this situation.]

Okay, then. Here...I go.

[She wraps her arms around Yuma and pulls him close, putting a hand to the back of his head. She's never been the type of person to do this - to make emotional gestures like this, to get involved in weird stuff, to actually fight for something or someone, rather than just coasting along and backing away whenever things get too serious.

But she can't just back away from these three. So...she's trying something else.]

...if you need me to keep an eye on Yuya for a while. Just.

Lemme know, okay?

*Yuma can tell this isn't something she does often and that she seems a little awkward with it, but he appreciates the gesture all the same.
He slowly brings his arms up and holds onto her for a moment*

Thank you.

And... please, keep an eye on him. On them both.
This really scared them. I think having someone around them will help.

*Typical Yuma. He's the one being targeted by the demons, yet he seems so much more concerned for the well-being of his friends, rather than himself.

After a moment, Yuma gradually breaks the hug.*

I should really call Kotori. She'll be worried and...
... I have a lot of stuff I need to tell her. None of it good, but...
... I'll be back once I'm done.

Re: Event

....yeah.

I'm gonna. Go check on Yuya and Zuzu. Go ahead and call her.

[She starts to walk to the door, leaving Yuma some privacy, but she stops.]

...hey, man.

I know things are bad, but. Just. Y'know. Y'got birdhair and Yuya and Zuzu and me and everybody, okay? Just.

Promise me y'won't try to take on too much by yourself.

Re: Event

[kattobingore]

*Yuma remained silent for a moment, before turning his head away from her.*

I know I have you guys and I'm grateful for that, but...
...I don't think I'll have much choice on it, because no matter what, if anyone else gets in their way trying to protect me, they'll get hurt or worse too.

And I need to make sure that doesn't happen.

*With that, he begins to walk away, signalling that he wanted to end the conversation there.*

Re: Event

[zoomizumi]

....

[Izumi looks away as she opens the door to Yuma and Yuya's room. She doesn't like the answer, that much is clear. But she can't muster up the courage to call Yuma out on it.]

Just. Think about it. Okay?

[Then, she heads inside and closes the door behind her.]

*When he hears her close the door, he stops briefly to look up at the dorm with a frown before continuing around to the dining area.*
