It's complicated, isn't it? We all wanted something better for everyone, but... there was tragedy that could have been prevented.

[ robin doesn't blame anyone. it isn't anyone's fault, as aerith said, and she'd be hard-pressed to lift the knife that needed to be wielded when there are others around. she has that much self-awareness, but it's still terrible to witness. ]

Miss Ashlyn shouldn't have had to suffer like that, but they have so much on their shoulders on that side. It's heartbreaking to me from all sides.

I think it's fine to have wanted something else to have happened even if it no longer could have happened. I know I did.
