[Ah, nope, sorry - you're just getting a view of Tsubomi's room... oh, wait, there's her hand, waving.]

Ohhh, so tired... after everything that's gone on - the show, not sleeping, those monsters showing up... I think I'm ready for a vacation.

Too bad school's back on. I wouldn't mind going back to the beach...

O-Oh! Sorry, everyone...

[And Tsubomi slowly slips out of bed and trudges to her computer, typing in a few things...]

[Fail!Locked to Hayate]

Hayate, are you okay? I didn't expect everything to happen so fast. Or to have to rescue you so quickly. Though... I'm curious. I saw some other people out there besides me, you and Aqua. Were those your family?

I understand your feelings, but you are being foolish. Think about this rationally.

[bag_has_snapped]

I... I...

[she sniffles a bit, trying not to cry.]

I don't want Hayate to die...

[fightbymoonlight]

Of course you don't. I don't want that either. No one here does.

But what you're doing right now isn't helping.

[bag_has_snapped]

...I don't know what to do... I can save the world, but I can't save my friend...? I...

As a Precure, your first and most important responsibility will always be towards the world. You became one to protect it, after all.

...

You don't have to like it and, honestly, neither do I, but the fact of the matter is that you cannot put Hayate's life before the fate of an entire world.

[Tsubomi just wibbles a bit before bursting out into tears.]

...it's not fair...! She deserves better!

[fightbymoonlight]

...I know. She really does.

[What else can she even say? This whole thing just sucks.]
