[he sighs a little, his bitterness waning, because in the end Dragon is his favorite of the Crafters for a reason]

If I die this weekend, then keep your promise to the others and bring me back. If that happens. . . I'll forgive you.

[There's the smallest spark of amusement in her eyes as the edge of her mouth quirks up into another smile.

why does this boy make her go through emotion olympics]

I would never dream of leaving you behind in the Other Side, Akechi.

Your story will not end here, as long as I have a choice in it.

[doublecrows]

If I were younger, I might force you to turn that into a pinkie promise. But I've long since outgrown those sorts of childish rituals.

[themodsgrimm]

[what if she wanted to pinkie promise...

Regardless she holds one hand out to him.]

Then might I take your hand for a moment instead?

[doublecrows]

[slow blinks at her, but. holds out his hand obediently!1]

[themodsgrimm]

[thanks akechi

She'll just take his hand between both of hers, holding onto it gently so that he can pull away at any moment if he feels too much like a trapped animal.]

I do not wish to see you perish here.

You have my word, Goro Akechi.
