[is it good? she doesn't feel great about it, but she's not sure whether that's because she's angry at someone else making a choice for her or if it's more that she's just. missing something.]
I don't know. But yeah, you did what you did. I can't change that. And you were... coming at it from the right place, I guess. There's just a lot of stuff you don't know.
[she's trying to keep herself at an even keel. she made this bed herself because she refuses to let people in. and she's not going to start now, but she can at least own up to it.]
Sorry. It's not your fault that I'm... like this. I don't like people making choices for me. Especially if they say it's for my own good.
Hey... No need to be sorry. I- I get it. I don't like people deciding things for me either. Especially when my parents want to run my life. It's totally bogus, you know?
["then you should've known" flashes in her head, but she doesn't say it. she even keeps the scowl inherent in that thought off her face, just because her emotions are all still completely out of whack.]
At least you get where I'm coming from. Look, this is gonna be... bad for a while, I think. With me. I might need to go try to figure my own shit out.
[she glances at her sword, then bends down and picks it up. the spirit seems happy where it is.]
I'll bring this back to the hearths. You gonna be okay here?
Yeah, I'll be fine. [He reassures her with a hint of a smile.] Nothing to worry about here!
Take your time and do what you need to do. [After a beat, he nervously adds] I-if that's what you wanna do, I mean! This isn't an order or anything. You can do whatever you want!
Got it! Got it. [He nods, with a bit of a more sincere smile.]
Okay, so I'll... leave you to that. Catch you on the flip side! [With a meek wave, he backs away before finally turning and leaving. He's not sure if he'd call it his proudest mission, but at least it ended on a vaguely positive note.]

I... can be kinda clueless. [He scratches at his head uncertainly.] And I don't know a lot about you, right.
...Maybe I should just focus on putting these guys away for now.

Too far in the other direction, you nerd. Chill out. I'm not going to take a swing at you or anything if you're saying we're good here.

We will be. Once I have time to process everything. Don't worry about it.
