Forty-Fifth Shower - [Voice]

I know a lot of people are already planning on how to make the best of this and make sure we have a good strategy, but why do I feel like that might not be enough this time? I was hoping they'd skip us this time, and right around Christmas? Thanks a lot.

I guess...I just have to make the best of this, too.

Well, guess that means I have to bump my Christmas plans back a little further. [She's trying to make light of the situation, even though she's really not that happy. She's pretty worried, actually.] Underground this time, huh? I'm not sure if that's better or worse. But why...you'd think they'd learn from last time, I'm not really a combatant.

I want to be better this time, and I'm not going to get knocked out early this time. I'm...I'm really good with healing magic now, and some of the other magic, too. And I'm a little better at combat for back-up support. [But definitely not for the front lines, she thinks.] I want to help. Just tell me what to do.

And for something a little less depressing...who's planning Christmas parties this year? I've got some ideas, but we'll see how those go.

Wish us luck.

[Draft announcements always make him angry. There's the fact that people have to go out there in a war, to kill... and there's the huge fact that some of the people they're sending out can't fight. What do they expect out of them? Why send them to a war they need to win? It didn't make sense, and it was unfair.

Luke felt a little worse when he saw Kairi on the list. This post from her confirmed it: she's not much of a fighter either. What can he do? He doesn't want her to go in there without really knowing what to do...]

Do you want me to do anything for you before you go? I can help you with combat...

[Luke...it's a few moments before she actually responds, because while she doesn't want to make Luke take time out to help her with something like this, she also recognizes that it really would not be the worst thing ever.]

Would you mind? If you're really busy, it's okay. I can go out to the Dome and practice a little bit before tomorrow.

Nah, it's fine. I don't have anything to do right now anyway.

[There's a shuffling noise as he gets down on the floor and reaches under his bed, his other hand patting above it to grab the journal.]

I'll be there soon, okay?

[There we go: He shuts the journal so that he can resume his search. He found it a few days ago and meant to give it to Xion later, but right now... Kairi needs it.]

Sure. [But she doesn't say anything else since Luke shuts the journal...so instead she'll shut her own journal and gather everything up to go wait for him outside. Luke's a good friend ;~;]

[He tries for the people he cares about ;~; Once he finds what he's looking for, he gathers a few more things and heads out to House 14. Luckily, she's waiting outside for him.

Luke has his sword strapped to his back and carries another one over his shoulder - both are wooden, made for training only. In his other hand hangs a necklace with some sort of charm at the end, the thing he was searching for.

When he sees Kairi, he inclines his head to greet her, as his hands are currently kind of full.]

Kairi!
