Mizuki gave a grin as she (effortlessly) pulled Kurome to her feet. She definitely understood the desire to wander, but all the way out her..? It was still a bit strange, in her eyes. Even so…

“Nah- that was the last one for my quest. The least I can do is walk you back to Planeptune- There might not be anymore dragons, but there’s still other monsters around. It’s really not safe for someone unarmed.”

It was almost jarring the speed at which Kurome went from rested on the ground to standing tall... but given she was healed now, at least it wasn’t difficult.

“ ... If you wish to walk me there, I won’t stop you - but I may take more of your time and patience than you’re expecting as of now. I’ve a bit of a... history with the mainland. ”

... As well as the entire land, but that wouldn’t allow her to make the point she was making now. Her words were practically testing Mizuki - a rather weak test, granted, but Kurome was still leaving her fate to whatever would come of it. This stranger would either stick with her... or leave. Kurome didn’t care regardless.

Mizuki gave a smile, as it became clear that the potion was working as intended- A definite success, then.

“Ah, don’t worry about it too much. It was just the right thing to do.” She stood, offering the other girl a hand to help her up as well. “Do you mind my asking why you’re all the way out here? You didn’t seem too lost, but with the dragons getting closer to town… I’m surprised you’re out here.”

“ ... Mm. An expected response. ”

She brought her hand out for Mizuki to pull her up, before responding.

“ ... I don’t have anywhere to be. I didn’t... expect a dragon to be out here, either. ”

It didn’t match her old memories of this area. Evolution was a thing, she supposed... it made sense enough, all the time that passed considered.

“ ... Don’t let me take more of your time. I don’t expect to be attacked by another dragon again - you can leave now. I’ve recovered. ”

…Well. That was definitely a strange request, but it was something she could do pretty easily. Although, with the way she said it… She couldn’t help but wonder if, just maybe, the other girl had come out here looking to get injured- or worse.

“I can do that.”

She unstoppers the bottle deftly with one thumb, bringing the open end of the vessel up to Kurome’s lips. “Here we go.” She’ll wait until Kurome opens her mouth enough for her to pour the liquid in, before doing just that- making sure to feed her the (minty!) healing potion slowly enough that she won’t have any issue with it.

To give her credit where it was due, Kurome made no effort not to take the potion as it was slowly poured in her mouth. She even swallowed as it went, eyes closed as she let things happen. At least she was doing that.

A few moments of silence, her eyes closed. Her body slowly stops shaking, her condition quickly getting better. The physical pain clearly starts going away.

“ ... ”

“ ... It worked. I suppose I owe you a ‘thank you’ now, don’t I? ”

“Alright then! Let’s-” And that’s when Kurome falls to her knees. Mizuki moves fairly quickly, for her part- stepping forward to rest a hand at Kurome’s shoulder in an attempt to keep her steady. Lilac eyes focus on the blue-haired girl’s face as she brings her other hand- still holding the potion- up for her to take.

“Looks like you really do need this, huh..?”

She had herself rested on the ground at this point, not in much of a position to get back up right now.

“ ... Feed... it to me. ”

A very... strange request, to say the least. Yet her own hand made no effort to move it to her mouth. Despite her pain, she seemed serious.

“ Do you... really want me to recover from this? Then... you give it to me. I don’t... particularly mind if I get it, regardless. ”

... Yeah, I think she’s serious.

Mizuki sighs softly as Kurome refuses the potion, one hand coming to rest on her hip. This was a stubborn one, by the looks of things… Hopefully she wouldn’t try to fight her like some of the Magi back in Mitakihara did.

“…Look, you’re clearly hurt. You can barely stand. I can’t really just leave you here- Take the potion or I’ll… I dunno, need to carry you back to Planeptune, or something.”

“ ... ”

... It wasn’t like Kurome could be violent about opposition or anything. It was clear this was the stubborn sort of goodie character - doing the right thing and helping those who needed it in front of them, regardless of remarks. ... Familiar.

“ ... Fine. I’ll... drink it. ... ”

“ ... Ngh! ”

Before she can take it, she falls to her knees, one hand on the ground, the other clenched into a fist. She’s... definitely feeling the “battle” that has now ended, that’s for sure.

The Gang™’s powers know no limit, Kurome. They transcend dimensions, and all that stuff.

“…I can’t believe I just did that. Oh god, the overzealous part of the fanbase is gonna be out for my blood.”

The dragon shifting caused Eric to scream in a panic, the idiot taking out his sword and stabbing it RIGHT in the ass multiple times until it finally did the death poof thing Neptunia enemies did.

“FUCK. FUCK SHIT FUCK. THAT ALMOST GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK. …You alright there, bluenette?” DUDE. ARE YOU TRYING TO PISS PEOPLE OFF.

“ ... ”

“ How... stylish. ”

Even in a damaged state, she still wasn’t free of rather dry sass, it seemed. But then again, a fighter killing the enemy in front of him with butt-stabbing was certainly easy to sass about.

“ ... I don’t... need help. I’m fine, yes. ”

A lie, but a combination of not being too worried about her state and... well, already feeling like this person’s going to be annoying for her, she decided to try to get him to simply move on his way, a “life” saved. Still... her body condition didn’t speak well for the validity of her words.

Mizuki drops to the ground pretty quickly, once the dragon’s vaporized- only now noticing the other woman… Seemingly not in the best shape, either, from the way she was staggering.

“…Shit, are you alright?”

She makes her way over, now, reaching into the purse at her side to pull out a vial full of… some kind of red liquid. “I’ve got a healing potion here, if you need it?”

Well, it seems now the notice was on her. So she just came to fight the Dragon... that’s quite the plot convenience, as far as Kurome was concerned.

“ ... Don’t worry about me. ”

She didn’t tell any lies, at any rate. She didn’t want pity - and she didn’t feel particularly motivated to get healed. She had reasons of her own for not being... particularly bothered by the thought of being left a little less than healthy. ... Still, the way she was wobbling and shifting a little as she stood was obvious. Stubbornness didn’t mix with a damaged body, visually.

If there was any dramatic battle music playing at the moment, it would fade out as a new challenger stepped onto the field.

“…I didn’t know dragons existed here. Time for a Gang™ intervention.” CUE THE MUSIC.

“HEY, DRACONIC ASSHOLE. PREPARE TO FEEL THE WRATH OF THE HEART OF THE CARDS!” From his sleeve, Eric draws a card and throws it, the card vanishing as he starts glowing GREEEEEN.

“UNLIMITED POWERRRRRR!” And he just. Dashes up to the Ancient Dragon, using his currently boosted strength to lift it up and… suplex it. There goes the glow, good for one attack only.

... While Kurome normally showed a degree of respect to the Fourth Wall, her first thought as this newcomer came in and destroyed the enemy in front of her with an absurdly powerful suplex was just... thinking of how baffling it was that plot convenience like this had been set aside for her.

“ ... Un... expected. ”

At this point, she opts to simply watch the scene, taking in... whatever was happening right now. She was wobbling a little, what with having been hit in the first place... but she was up enough to at least watch the carnage this person was causing.

“Oh, there’s one!”

And here we have Mizuki, flying up behind the Ancient Dragon, body glowing a bright lilac with a number of spells that she’d absorbed with her Magia Erebea…

“Duabus Emissae- Celestial Buster x2 and other previously absorbed spells.”

With that, a massive stream of magical energy bursts forth from her outstretched hands to collide with the dragon… And, in all likelihood, leave very little of the monster left behind.

“ ...? ”

Despite the urgency of the situation, Kurome’s attention wasted no time moving from the Dragon to the... newcomer to the situation, though looking over was about all the time Kurome had time to do before the blast came in from the other, destroying the Dragon that put her on the line.

“ ...! ”

“ ... Well. That was... unexpected. ”

... Despite the tone she was giving, she was... staggering, a little bit. It was clear she’d taken a few more hits than her body would’ve preferred.

#filiasusceptor #{;;delusions are real || ic;;}#{;;replies;;}#(WELL. that's one way to take out a dragon--)

And here we have Kurome, who... seems to be face to face against an Ancient Dragon. It seems particularly angry someone’s wandered onto it’s territory... and it’s easy to tell she’s taken a few unfortunate hits. She doesn’t have so much as a weapon in her hands.
