I'm doing it because I want to just as much. So you're stuck with it. I'll do my best, I've got some people hyper aware of my well being so I can't really let them down.

It makes a world of difference. Especially when you don't have to rely on a bunch of weird things to get a decent nights sleep.
I hope so too. Just... Try to take it easy until things start to ramp up.
And
For what it's worth. Don't be too hard on yourself about what happened in October.
It got to the best of us.
You included.

[ Kurt doesn't miss the way she frames that. It reminds him so much of himself that his heart aches for what she must be going through. ]

why do I feel as though this is something I should be saying to you?

I'm afraid I've never been good at not being hard on myself, Ruby
I don't know if that is going to change any time soon
I'm sorry if what happened scared you or hurt you

Maybe it's just the theme of the month?

I think I understand. Or at least I know what it's like to leap at any chance to help someone the way you do.
And how much it hurts when you let those people down or hurt them.
I don't really have the words to say to ease the burden you're carrying.
But I think it's important that you don't let it stop you either.
This place is looking for ways to divide us and I have friends that really look up to you for support.
Don't let it push you away from them.

I was more scared for them when it happened.
I'm just glad we got that thing you turned into to run away when we did.

I don't think either of us have let anyone down, Ruby

I'm grateful that you were there, even though I never want to hurt you like that again, and I'm sorry you had to witness it

[It takes a few minutes for her to respond and there a few "..."'s in there. She tended to put a lot on her shoulders and when her loved ones got hurt it was hard for her not think that she should have been there to prevent it from happening.

But still she was there to try and provide some comfort to Kurt and she could put that aside for now.]

You're right. We were both just doing what we could at the time.

It's what a Huntress does, I wouldn't ask for anyone to take my place there. I'm glad we were able to stop you, you're too nice to have anything more weighing on you conscience like that.

[ Kurt can guess a little of what's going on in her mind; he's spent enough time with her, by now, to understand how similar they are, and knows where his own thoughts would take him if given the chance. ]

sometimes that's all we can do, and there's no shame in that

do you often use teleporting in fights? [ It's easy to tell himself he's changing the subject for her sake rather than his own guilt.. ]

Right. Yeah. I guess you're right about that.

[She unfortunately falls right into the topic change. Because their problems are very much alike and she managed to hit at her own guilt while trying to help him.]

Yeah, I do! Between that and using the kick back of my scythe I can bounce around the battlefield pretty quick.

It's my Semblance. People from my world all have their own unique one. Mine let's me turn into rose petals and move super fast like that.

Kind of like your bamfy clouds.
