[ It's not all that matters, she thinks. The others should have been saved, too. She's upset that they all had to die to stop that thing.

(And the way she's come back has been - disorienting, and scary, but that's another story.) ]

It's not your fault. [ One of her willow branches drapes over Beat's shoulder, the closest she can get to a comforting gesture. ] We all tried hard.

[The branch on his shoulder makes him smile and he raises a hand to gently pat at it.]

We did, yo. Which makes the fact we all feelin' like shit really stupid. We gotta not blame ourselves.

[Though he knows Nanami is doing it. Just as he knew Peter was doing it.]

You know, we all make a pretty good team though. We jus' gotta work at it more.

[ Ribbing him about W.E.B. But it's not like she can throw stones.

Nyehe~ you can't deny you enjoyed it too, Squiddles! Jus' you watch, I'll make you into a proper villain yet!

[Relaxing his expression, he bonks his head against her bark lightly.]

Until then, yo, I think we earned a rest time. Im throw a spa day fer us or somethin'. When the fog over so you ain't tryina get 'round bein' a giant tree.

[ He's right-- and the breeze that wafts through the leaves now almost sounds like her little laugh. ]

Yeah... thanks. Mm... I think I might just... stay here, mostly. Until then.

... But... that sounds... nice, after.
