Where are you going? Can I help?

*ignores him in her hurry to get to Carmilla’s hospital room*

Do you need help?

My friend is in danger. I do not know yet what happened…

*arrives at the door and opens it*

Danger? What danger?

*Carmilla’s passed out on the floor, drained bruised and broken*

*lets out a strangled cry and crosses the room, past the other unconscious bodies of Yanis, Perceptive, Quick, Lilith, Quel and a random guard, as well as Rocco hovering nervously next to them, to kneel down next to her*

Should I… get someone?

She… doesn’t look so good

You left her alone… some bodyguard you are. Some friend. You left her vulnerable, and helpless, so whatever happens… is your fault

Lady Leela?

*stops in her tracks*

Yes?

Wow, it’s really you! I’m a huge fan!

*tense*

I do not believe we have met? Who are you?

Oh, sorry, I- I guess you wouldn’t know me. I’m Vice! And you’re… Leela. The Savage.

*her eyes narrow*

I am Leela, yes.

Can I have your autograph?

My …what?

*holds out a stylus hopefully*

Why?

Well, I- I’m a fan.

*gives him a weird look but, after an awkward moment, takes the stylus*

Where do you want me to sign?

*holds out his arm*

Here?

*carefully writes her name on his arm*

Wow, uh, thank you!

… You are welcome.

I’ll just… wow!

She's... dead... because of me...

Hey, you okay?

D-daybreak... is... she's dead... its my fault... its my fault

*steps back in shock*

Daybreak?

She's dead...

Murdered... blood everywhere... Erlisen said they found her body... it was... savaged as if by a wild animal.

Its my fault!

What did you do

E-erlisen knew there was something wrong... I convinced her it was nothing... if we'd listened to her instinct... we'd have been able to stop this

You-

Its my fault

She's dead... because of me

I can’t believe it

*sobs*

It should've been me...

Wait, no

It should've

I'm a murderer, she's... she was...

Hey, man, don’t

Why not? What possible reason could I have to live for... I'm disowned, I've lost half my regenerations... Daybreak had her whole life ahead of her...

Would she have wanted this?

I don't know...

She wouldn’t.

She should be here right now

Not me

Hey… hey. *sits beside them*

It wasn’t your fault, you didn’t know.

E-erlisen said... it was...

I only know what you’ve said, but… of course she blames you, she’s upset. She won’t, in a few weeks

She was in love... she'll never forget this

No, but she’ll understand it wasn’t your fault. Daybreak would

Daybreak... *starts crying again*

I know they were big on the whole… physical affection thing…

Y-yeah... they w-were...

Would that… help?

...

Maybe

*pulls them into a hug*

*it does help*

I just... I miss her, I miss her stupid little chirps and twitters and her enthusiasm and...

There are matrix recordings…

You know that's not the same...

I hope she's... archived in there. I hope its some form of peace at least...

It is… it is. And she helped a lot of people… made their lives better… heck, look at us

She should get a statue...

Or at least a holiday

Yeah... let's... submit a petition.

Good idea. *extracts themself gratefully*

She made this world better... it will forever be colder now she's gone...

Maybe… maybe she inspired someone else

She inspired many... Erlisen, us... her siblings

We should… give our condolences.

Y-yeah... we should...

But first… the petition. What should we say?

She was... representative of the best parts of us, and she... always fought for what was right...

She inspired us… to be better. To change— no, they won’t accept that. Our academic achievement…

She was a model of hard work and dedication... a pillar of our community who always helped those around her.

Good…

She taught us… to consider alternative view— no, they won’t like that, either. To more deeply understand our values

Yeah... she protected those who most needed her help. She was... she embodied the true Gallifreyan Values, regardless how how she looked.

I think that’s good

Thank you...

Should we... write it up and start handing it out?

Is there someone specific to ask?

Clearan... or... Cardinal Kelpax...

Clearan would do it… they’re friends, right?

Daybreak was part of her house

Sorry, yes, right, I didn’t mean to be… improper

No... no it's alright Add... I'm not really in the mood to be proper anyway

*writes it carefully, and formally*

This sound respectful enough?

Yeah... that's great Add, they'll have to... honour her...

And the students who never met her will know her
