☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- Yes, I registered you. - Nariya repeated, this time hugging her. - So, welcome to the family, officially... I hope you understand that I wouldn't grant such an honor to just anyone, and if I were to die prematurely, you would be my only legacy.

- A... arigato, - she replies. - I understand. But you must also understand that dying prematurely is not an option. Even if, at the cost of your life, you decide to take your enemies with you. That would be completely unforgivable...

- ... Hiding your radiance from the world would be a crime against humanity and civilization, so I'm still "for" it. Besides, yes, I know you - you won't be appearing in any truly unworthy roles.

Turning away for a few seconds to hide the emotion that flashed across her face from the first part of the phrase, she responds to the rest:
- ...okay. But if anything happens, you're in for a thousand needles.
