Jester, who has seen Yasha struggle again and again with the consequences of actions that she had no control over. Jester, who remembers what it was like to be captured with Yasha and Fjord. Jester, who knew that Yasha wanted to come back, to come home, but couldn’t because of Obann’s possession. Jester who watches a spectral form enter Yasha’s body again, watches as that dead look enters Yasha’s eyes. The emptiness is familiar and terrifying and wrong. But Jester’s gaze doesn’t waver, not even when Yasha’s blade cuts into her skin. Because even if she can’t see Yasha in there, she needs Yasha to see the message in her eyes.
This isn’t you. I know it’s not your fault. I love you. We will protect you.
