[ Somehow she's been spared from this stuff for a long time and she's glad for that, but.. on the other hand, it's always worrying to have to see friends go and worrying for them while they're gone. But.. ]

H.. hmm, I will. Don't worry about it..

[Which he's glad for. Madoka shouldn't be subjected to the battlefields of war. It's nothing like whenever the village get a random, rampaging assailant.

War means deaths, being emotionally drained and sometimes making tough decisions. On a big scale, sometimes.]

If you have any questions, ask away.

Not really. I did this last time too, after all.. even if that was a little different. [ a little more sudden. ] I'm sure Yoh-san won't mind either having a cat around for a little bit again.

.. Just.. um.. please come back safely.

[de_bel_survivor]

Who wouldn't want to have an adorable cat around?

[He speak so lightly and casually, as if it's a normal, everyday conversation. But it's his way of lightening up the mood because of the draft.]

...I will, Kaname-san. I promise.

[ It gives her a little more faith that it'll all end well. It helps that she's optimistic, really, but.. it's still scary that all she can do is wish for other people's wellbeing. It feels too much like back home, and.. well, nothing really ended well there. ]

Thanks. H.. hehe, I'll be keeping you to that promise.

[No matter how much time passed between each drafts, Kouki is far too used to war. Just knowing he have friends waiting for him in Luceti, that he can return and see them again, is a good enough motivation for him to fight.]

I'll keep my word. If I don't...well, you're free to yell at me.

[He cracks a smile. Because Madoka, yelling? Hahah.]

[happyends]

.. Ah! D.. don't worry, I wouldn't yell at you either way!

[ Her reaction might help it a little, with how she genuinely seems concerned that Kouki might think she'd be mad at him, even though it's obviously a joke. ]

[de_bel_survivor]

[He chuckles, smiling at her reaction.]

I know, Kaname-san. But thanks.

[happyends]

N.. no, you don't have to thank me. All you have to do is keep your promise and come back safely.. that's all.

[de_bel_survivor]

I know that I don't have to, but it's still nice to know that people are waiting for me.

[Not like how it was back in the demon world.]

[happyends]

Of course people would be waiting for you though.. that's what having friends is about, right?

[ Then again, all her friends sort of.. died back home. Welp. ]

[de_bel_survivor]

Yeah...I'll try my best not to let them wait for me too long.

[Which is a silly thing to promise on. While the drafts here are just a couple of days long, the war back home last for an indefinite amount of time.]
