[ this is all very concerning things to hear. her emotions reflect none of that. ]

I hope it is only a coincidence that both Luke and Dahut were in the same room last night. I am sorry you and the others had to feel that.

[ what were likely his dying pains.

i am sorry luke had to feel that at all. ]

Wish sharing them could've at least taken off some of the pain from Luke.

[well, i wish he wasn't dead at all.]

... Actually, I wish he'd said anything at all about his condition, if he had one, but I know that's an unfair thought to have.

It would be better if he were alive to tell any of us anything at all, but I can understand keeping something like that secret.

[ even if my reasons would be different. ]

There are many things easier left unsaid, and... he seemed like the type who didn't want to worry others.

Yeah, I figured that was why he didn't say anything.

[sure wish i had, though—but no point in that now.]

[ she looks at him curiously. ]

What did you want to say?

[he shrugs.]

He and I were standing guard at the door together when we were locked in, so I noticed he was feeling worse. Didn't seem like he wanted to people to know, though, so I kept quiet.

[wasn't worth watching him die for. but it's not helpful to think like that.

anyway the takeaway here is that privacy is overrated, actually?]

[ privacy is overrated!!! wish shouxue would agree.

she frowns. ]

You were trying to respect his wishes. It's not like you knew. It is a regret now, but it doesn't have to be a regret in the future. What would you say to him, if you could see him again?
