vrdantwind: (Everything you need)

I just hope it doesn't come up at all. I think we could all use a break from Edelgard, frankly.

It's still so depressing how wrong everything went. I don't think she's necessarily a bad person, or that she doesn't want what's best for Fodlan in her own way...I just can't agree with her methods at all. Even as pragmatic and underhanded as I am...she's prepared to sacrifice so much for what I assume she thinks is the greater good that I feel like the cure's worse than the disease. I wish I knew why she's so convinced that there's no better way...or that she was less stubborn. If she was willing to listen to anybody else, maybe it wouldn't have had to come to all this.

That said...if she did show up here, and someone needed to kill her to keep Dimitri from self-destructing, it should probably be me. Dimitri might never forgive the person who robbed him of that, and he'd need his best friends in the aftermath. So it definitely shouldn't be you or Sylvain.

As for flattering you, I was just being honest. You like talking to me, don't you? I assume you wouldn't bother if you didn't. So why's it so strange that it's mutual?

You were there at Derdriu, but to be honest, we didn't exactly talk. It was mostly a little reunion with me, Dimitri, and Teach; I really didn't get to chat with anyone else. But it's not like we would've had a whole lot to talk about anyway, since we were practically strangers back home.
