Brunhilde watched as Emi wrote an entry in the book. She glared at the taller girl indignantly. It's not like she was useless or anything - she'd made it this far mostly on her own, after all. A few rehabilitation appointments aside, she'd done everything herself, 'by the book', so to speak. She wouldn't stand for that sort of attitude, so she stepped in front of Emi to block her path for a moment.

[center][color=8493ca]"Wo-wo-wo-woah. [i]Woah.[/i] That's not how it works. Just for that note, I'm going to work my [i]ass off[/i], and there's nothing you can do about it."[/color][/center]

Emi was holding onto her, but she popped into the air regardless, getting on eye level with Emi to make her next point.

[center][color=8493ca]"I'm not a charity case. I'm not going to accept your help because I need it - I don't. I'll let you do this because you want to - and I'm going to find a way to help you out in return. Because I think of you as a friend. Got it?"[/color][/center]

Seeing that note in the journal would do nothing but piss her off again later on, so she quickly scribbled a note on her arm in pen, under Emi's note - 'Return the favor.'. With that done, she returned to the ground and followed Emi as originally intended.

The 38 minutes Avarius had given them were up, but she couldn't remember that at all, and the note regarding it was several lines up in the diary, buried under other information. Even though classes were shorter that day, he would probably have wanted to test their discipline by having them stop back by the lesson area for a quick chat, followed by rapid dismissal. Were Brunhilde aware of this, she would probably have been worried about getting her ass kicked by her teacher the next time they ran into eachother.
