I should have. I was just. Afraid, I guess.

I talked to Yuuri first. She's angry, of course--asked for time to cool down and think about it.

[daughterofthemark]

Afraid of what we would say?

Do you think I should speak with her? Or would it make things worse?

[burninglight]

I didn't want it to turn into a tremendous argument. Airlocked's done enough damage to our family, I didn't want to continue the trend. Though I suppose I've done that regardless.

You've no need to speak to her on my behalf. She wants time to think the matter over, and that's the least I can give her.

[daughterofthemark]

...I think it is too soon to say that. You may be right that this was necessary, and I think everyone will come to understand why you felt it was.

Not necessarily on your behalf, so much as for her benefit.

Would you just look after her and make sure she's alright? Please.

[daughterofthemark]

Of course I will. She is, after all, my sister.

[burninglight]

Thanks, Arianna. I'm sorry--I won't go behind everyone's backs like this again.

Simply be sure to let us know first if you do.

Perhaps we could simply disregard my previous message.

[burninglight]

It's okay. I can tell what you meant.
