[Something has happened. There is some time before another message comes but it's not in the form of a text but rather Voice. And what the vampire hears besides the breathing from the dark knight on the other end, is the tone in her voice. Low as every word is enunciated and crisp and sharp. But there's a deeper emotion under it all:
Anger.
Not the kind when someone would explode or rant or scream but rather the kind that makes people immediately think of danger. To run away as far as they can otherwise someone not not just get hurt...they will die. Irhya has seen Mira get angry while in the Rathmore's manor but she has not seen nor heard of the woman's true fury. How eerie it was when she cut down those poachers who tried to carve up Sora with ease and how emotionless she was when she disposed of the corpses. Or how quiet she was when Vanitas was in danger and how she had no issue cleaving someone in two to ensure his safety. If Irhya thought that this would help her case...it didn't.
Far from it.
But there was also something that clicked with the woman. A realization through the sadness and anger; she just needed the reminder. Mira's jaw clenches as she lets those words sink into her mind, exhaling sharply. She knows what needs to be done now...she just needs to say it.]
Save me...?
YOU save ME?
[There's no yelling on her end but suddenly, there's a chuckle. But it feels much more tired.]
Who do you think you are assuming such things? Do you think 'saving me' will make you feel better? Where were you when I needed someone the most? When I was constantly in tears or hiding my feelings because of the fear of hurting you and Vanitas and vice versa? You think you can come in after many moons of no contact and assume that everything will be alright when we are practically strangers?
It is not alright.
I do not need you to 'save me' because thanks to those boys and my friends even if they are no longer here, I can walk with my head held high. They saved me from despair, not you.
[Fordola telling her that she can be Mira. Lorenz and her talking about books and the weird thing about liking that one dress. Lavi and her weird moment of her knocking him out and then getting treated for tea. Steak and her arm wrestling. Sora and her talking about plants. Mira and Bishop talking about their dancing plant as well as seeing him turn into a kid.
And Vani...from their first meeting to her telling him stories about Ishgard to him reassuring her from the recent kidnapping ordeal to let him in emotionally...
Mira knows now.]
I don't need your saving. Thanks to them, I can do it on my own without fear. I'd be shaming them if I kept crying and hiding away like before and it stops now. If you believe pity is care then wake up because I don't want it. Save me? Ha! It's you who needs saving.
Goodbye, Warrior of Light.
