[...

something about shadowheart's directness gets his expression to crumple.]

It... really is. Not today, but are you going to be all right?

[sacredpath]

Yes, I will, but not today.

[today this is awful.]

What about you?

[kumeyuri]

[he breathes out.]

Not much of a choice but to be, is the sentiment I've been hearing today.

[sacredpath]

Yes.

[...]

Yves and Saber both, it doesn't necessarily feel coincidental.

[kumeyuri]

[frowns.]

Honestly, I kind of expected that it'd be me this week.

[sacredpath]

I see. [well... it makes sense.] I don't know of anyone angry enough to hurt either of you, but if the apples and affliction in play, it's hard to say.

[kumeyuri]

[just that if someone had to pick anyone and there was any lingering resentment over claude, he wouldn't have been surprised to be targeted...]

Everyone's been pretty kind to me about it, and I can't imagine it would be different for Saber when I'm the one who got them involved. But you're right that it's hard to say when you factor in other stuff.

[which he looks a little guilty over now.]

[sacredpath]

[don't... ]

I can't imagine, either, and we don't know that it was related to that. Nor with Yves. It's only very coincidental if so.

[kumeyuri]

... Yeah. No point in jumping to any conclusions yet, when we don't even know who did it.

[sacredpath]

Did Yves tell you, about his apple? We might need to try and find it. Assuming it even works that way.

[kumeyuri]

He did, yeah. I don't know if he got any verification that it'd work the way he wanted, but either way, I'm concerned about the possibility of it having gone missing during... his death.

[sacredpath]

I wonder... based on how that tree works, if any of us could even use it even if we had it, or if it would be an ordinary apple.

[kumeyuri]

I'm not sure. ... I probably should've asked the angels, but I figured that Yves would've sorted out the details.

[and also he's been giving them space this week just in case.]

[sacredpath]

Well. He probably did not expect to die. But we can always try to ask tomorrow.

[kumeyuri]

[a quiet huff.]

Probably not. But yeah... we can do that.
