Mun... this is a really, really bad idea.

... I know. But nobody deserves to go through what you had went through... or what Yuno did, for that mater. She can deny it all she wants, but you two really aren't that different. You were both betrayed by people you trusted, and your parents weren't there for you.

[ Only Yuno's mother was abusive and her father was a neglectful workaholic, and Tsubaki's were murdered. Well, Yuno's were too... just by Yuno herself instead of someone else. ]

I wish Yuno could see that.

[She closes her eyes for a moment, thinking about this. Was she like Yuno? Were they really...similar? As much as even Tsubaki herself didn't want to think about it, Yukiteru was probably right.]

I cannot speak for you, obviously, but out of anyone, it seems...you would be the person to help her see.

I want her to. But she has it in her head that I'm the only person she'll ever need, and vice-versa. Anyone else is unnecessary at best and a threat to our relationship at worst.

[ He doesn't sound as if he regrets it... more that he's sad about it. ]

I love her, Tsubaki. I just want her to be happy.

[redlikeflowers]

And you are the person who makes her happy. [ A pause. ]

I'm no expert on romance, frankly. The most advice I can give you is to use that completely swaying loyalty to get her where you want to get her, figuratively speaking.

[ He lowers his eyes when she says that. ]

I used her love and devotion once, Tsubaki. I don't want to do that to her again. All I want is to see her happy. Really happy, for once. She's so afraid of losing me again that she spends more of her time worrying about ways she'll lose than just enjoying her life.
