v-voice testing. might be going to somarium next month.

[tentai]

Are you sure about this? I wouldn't want you to be too rash. You may have a month but don't push yourself, okay?

Don't worry about me. I'll be okay.

...

Thank you.

[ He looks at the handkerchief. He's not sure why you're offering it to him. But does he really not look okay? He wasn't too sure himself. ]

Thank you for your concern but ... it's not something that I deserve.

[magic101]

[The handkerchief is still offered, but the look has changed for the worse.]

You... deserve?

[What does that even mean?]

[tentai]

[ Maybe he shouldn't have said that. But he really doesn't deserve it. Not after what he has done despite not remembering it.

Nevertheless he gives her a single nod. ]

I've hurt a lot of people and I've yet to repay my sin.

[magic101]

[For a little while Lillet gives Jellal an appraising stare. But it isn't long before the expression lightens and she comes forward to rub his face.]

That's okay. I don't have anything to do with all of that.

[tentai]

[ Jellal looks a bit shocked when she comes and rubs his face. It's not something he's used to. And he's not even sure if this has ever happened before because he doesn't remember.

But he doesn't back away. Mainly because he was more interested in her words. ]

You don't?

[magic101]

Well, I don't remember. And I'd be pretty sure if I remember somebody like...

[Huh? That's not a teardrop... that's...]

...a tattoo?

[tentai]

[ Jellal blinks before it clicks. ]

Did you think the tattoo was something else?

[magic101]

Y-Yes! I mean no! Which is... uh...

[flail flail]

[tentai]

It's okay. It's a forgivable misunderstanding.

[ Mistaking a tattoo for tears. Yep. Totally ]

[magic101]

U-Um...

...

...why would you get a tattoo on your face??

[tentai]

... I don't know. I don't remember how or why I have a tattoo there.

[magic101]

Oh right...

Sorry.

[tentai]

It's alright. If you have nothing to do with me then you wouldn't have known.

[magic101]

Heh... [She smiles gently at how her own words were used to console her.]

Well, you still look pretty bad... Here. Let's go over there. I believe I saw a water-drawing device that we can wash you up.

[tentai]

Ah .. [ So his 'tears' weren't the only thing. But for a stranger to take the time to help him he's pretty thankful of it. ]

Okay. Lead the way.

[magic101]

[She leads them both to a drinking fountain. Unfortunately for her, this is an unknown invention in her world. Fortunately for her, that means that this sort of thing is REALLY neat.]

[So she gets her handkerchief nice and wet and prepares to wash off his face. Isn't that nice of her?]

Hold still.

[tentai]

[ Jellal can't say that he remembers seeing any thing like a water fountain. But it does look interesting. ]

[ It is. Jellal isn't sure how to react to this kindness but he nods slightly and gets ready to hold still and not flinch. ]

Okay.
