She kissed her lightly on the head and thought for a moment.

"I don't have anything waiting for me back home. Sure, it would be nice . . . but it's not necessary."

She looked up at her, tears still pooled in her eyes. “But home is safer for you. It’s better for you.”

Jakob swings for intellect, knowing he won't succeed, but tries anyway.

His hand is stopped by a sheet of ice that appears in front of Intellect.

"Not if you're not there," she smiled.

She thought for a second. “If I’m replacing Mirth, I should be able to make Servants, right?”

"I guess so. Though I'm not sure I would make a very good Servant of yours," she laughed.

“I wouldn’t try to be your master or anything. But if you’d be safer that way and I could still help protect you…”

"I mean, I guess. But then I would miss hugging you."

She tightened the hug for emphasis.

“… me too…”

”If we’re staying, I don’t want to stay with this group. But Dirb’s son… I want to try to help somehow. He shouldn’t have to go through losing him.”

She nodded.

"Intellect said he would send a different Servant with enough money for the surgery."

“Oh. Okay.”

She glanced over at the group. “We could leave. Now. We could ask Ember if he wants to come with us, but no one else.”

"Shouldn't we get the Archstone back from Fear, first?"

“Well… probably, but if Intellect is going to be like this, I don’t want to be around him. I need time to mourn, and I’ll get better. If I pretend I’m okay, it’ll just get worse.”

“It’d be better, yeah. I.. I’ll be okay, just.. not with Intellect and Jakob, the way they’re acting. If you want to go over and quietly explain to Ember, you can ask if he wants to come.”
