[ Manfred wasn't at all wrong. The war's been weighing heavily on her shoulders for so long, she's starting to feel...nothing. At first, it was easy to be outraged and cry over what they had to do to fight against the Church while still follow through on their mission. Lately, however, after having to fight old friends and classmates, all of them fatal, she's tired. Exhausted. And, scariest of all, she's starting to go numb to it.
Her lack of emotion is easy to shrug off once they're outside of battle. Most of the time. Being around her beloved friends makes her feel human again. She can shrug off the defensive mask. Still, it creeps up on her from time to time, and always when she's alone with herself. Manfred snaps her out of that very daze, and the shock on her face is genuine. ]
...! [ When did he arrive? How long has he been there?! If he saw her spacing out like that... ] Manny! Is...Are those really for me?
Crimson Flower should do fine!
