'Work hard on it, I can't continue being strong for you..' she mumbled, hating the fact it was true.

Subject: Eagle Thu Nov 29, 2012 10:45 pm

"I'll work on it for you. If nothing else can motivate me, that will."

Subject: Ace Thu Nov 29, 2012 11:01 pm

forgot again, erk ,night.
sorry :c

'I'll try and help you too.' she offered, knowing she needed to express her willingness to aid him.

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 7:15 am

"Thank you." He kisses her cheek.

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 3:54 pm

Some people had been watching, but they still paid no mind to their actions, making Ace smirk a little. 'The battle's going on at school right now..'

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 3:55 pm

He sighs. "I know. I'll admit, I prefer battles of the mind over physical ones. That's partly why I'm not there."

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:01 pm

'Bryn told me not to go, because i'd be in the way, I'm not strong enough.' she whispered quietly, pushing the chess board away from her. 'I never was the strong one in the family.'

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:02 pm

"He was right. This isn't your battle so it isn't mine either."

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:05 pm

'Of course it's my battle, it's my whole family's battle!' she scowled, annoyed.

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:06 pm

"You know what I meant," he says quietly.

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:11 pm

'I'm here because I'm not like my family, I can't fight people, I'm weak and useless...' she angled her head towards the floor, shaking it slightly.

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:17 pm

He places his fingers under her chin to tilt her head back up. "You're not weak; you're intelligent. You're not useless at all."

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:21 pm

'But what use is it when I'm sat here biding time, waiting for bad news?'

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:23 pm

"There has to be a balance between your mind and your body, Ace. Your strength lies in intelligence instead of physical abilities. I'm not saying that our friends are stupid, but they are the ones who are skilled in battle."

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:27 pm

'Even my little sister is there, and nobody would ever deem her fit for battle.' she was referring to Meredia. 'Apart from Bryn..'

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:28 pm

"There's nothing we can do now. Odds are, the battle will be over soon anyway, and if we went back we'd probably get in the way."

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:32 pm

She sighed, still feeling guilty. 'I'm meant to be better than this, I'm the oldest sibling, i'm meant to look after them..'

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:34 pm

"You can't look after them forever, Ace."

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:37 pm

'I couldn't look after them in the first place.' she muttered again, not meeting his eyes.

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:39 pm

"That's in the past. They still care for you, don't they?"

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:46 pm

'They don't have a choice in the matter, we're family, we love each other unconditionally. Just like i love you.' she added on lamely at the end.

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:48 pm

"You do have a choice. Not all siblings are as close as you are to your family. I love you too, by the way."

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:53 pm

Sydnay. the name entered her mind, making her face crease with sadness. 'I would know... I miss one of my sisters dearly.'

Subject: Eagle Fri Nov 30, 2012 4:54 pm

He releases her hand so he can put his arm around her shoulders instead in comfort.

Subject: Ace Fri Nov 30, 2012 5:00 pm

She remained silent for a moment, simply letting the sadness flush through her before continuing. 'She isn't evil you know, i can tell..'
