It had been misdirected anger that had caused her to challenge the scavenging monster girl, but her own priorities were never so heroic to begin with. Making a beeline towards the alleyway she stored Aurora in, Amaryllis slid to a stop, twisting on the tip of one toe before lifting the woman up. Against her chest, she could still feel the weak beating of her acquaintance’s heart. Still alive. Still stable. Good, between the void of that magical girl and her own silvered blade, none of the spirits had escaped to wreak havoc elsewhere. Bridal carrying her, Amaryllis rolled her shoulder blades and extended four other chains out, latching onto others whose hearts still moved despite their monster-inflicted injuries. With much less care, the rosary gleamed its pale glare over them, doing the bare minimum to extend their lives further before Amaryllis shot off, bounding over upended cars and fallen corpses. The healer boy with his clones had already established an area for aid, and after depositing the contents of her ivy chains in an orderly row on the ground, the Knight of Rose approached the only one of the copies that didn’t seem to be a snarky little shit. Presenting the blonde-with-pink-highlights accounting student to the masked magical boy, Amaryllis said, [color=778899]“Heal her first, and heal her fully, please. I don’t want anyone I know to die.”[/color] There was no flowery pretense this time. Just concern undercut by frustration with a smidge of homicidal rage and pain. [@Card Captor][@Ariamis]
