Promise meme: "By the Crystals, Ringabel, I will avenge you. You will not be forgotten." Agnes stroked one hand through the other's blood matted hair soothingly, swallowing hard at the empty gesture, knowing there was no comfort in the wake of such pain. -windyvestal
"My...apologies... Lady Vestal...A-Agnés." Ringabel could hardly slur the words out, trying his best to keep his half-lidded gaze on the brunette that was splashed in crimson. Despite all the pain that screamed in his broken body, the vagrant managed a smile at the soothing gesture that was far more comforting than Agnés would ever believe.It beat dying alone in the cold, cruel world, but perhaps it was just as cruel for the young lady to witness another death of sacrifice to keep her safe. So many hardships were up ahead for her, and he vaguely wondered where this would rank.With what felt like the last of his strength, Ringabel raised a shaky hand up to cup her cheek and used a finger to wipe a tear from her always beautiful chocolate brown eyes. A shame to ever see her cry."An amnesiac...to be remembered. You flatter me. Perhaps I did well...after all."
