Both, if I could.

An there is the challenge. Eichi wanted to protect sensitIV. Thus I could not in good faith give you two choices and him one. That is why it is important for you decide which is more important. You can switch each game if you like.

"More important"...I hate that. They're all important. I know what you mean, I just...hate this a lot. [She worries her lip and tuts sharply.] Protecting the healers is the only thing I could agree with with any conviction.

[Her tone is a bit wry.]

Hopefully, it will not come to choosing between them...or that we won't have quite that same make up once again.

[She runs a hand through her bangs and only her bangs, deceptively careful not to ruin his work.]

I have...more lovers on BAD END but that doesn't mean Levity's life is worth any less or that I want to see him hurt.

I do not care for the phrasing myself, but we both understand the meaning. You would not make such a choice if you were not forced. In such situations even those that are chosen can hardly view themselves as winners.

And no one can accuse you of not loving so strongly. I do hope another such game will not present itself, but that is not for us to decide.

But I am glad you feel as if you can voice your opinions on the matter.

...I wonder if I do love as strongly, after all.

Wonder?

[He brushes her hair back.]

My dear, you positively radiate with it.

[she lets him do that but she looks a little upset]

...And yet I didn't fight with everything I had for those that mattered.

[But everyone matters. That's the problem.]

In the end a certain number of units were to be injured. No matter how hard you would have argued that fact would simply not change. Hence, at some point it does become a waste of effort.

You're right, you're right...and this is just giving them what they want.

[She scrubs her face before dropping her hands and sighing]

Sorry, I guess it just really...affected me. Guess I'll have to stop liking people.
