Even though the words hadn't been directed at her, they pierced her heart nonetheless. [color=33FF65]“I think we’re done here?”[/color] Lilac's hands pulled back to hide her eyes. Breathe. That wasn't today. It didn't happen today. [color=DE8C5C]"Yeah, we're done. It was fun, see ya later."[/color] It wasn't raining when that happened. No matter how clearly she could hear them still, that was months ago. Nothing could be done, nothing could be said, that would change that day, no matter how much she dwelled on it. She bit her lip and leaned back. Far from the battle ready stance with blade in hand before, now she rested against a wall, back from the conflict. She forced her hands from her eyes to hold them at her side. She couldn't be this weak. She was supposed to be a magical girl, irrepressible hope. Lilac seemed dazed as Ozma appeared on the scene and settled things down. [color=DAA520]“Lilac Shimmer, if I have injured you, speak now honestly, and I will heal your ailment, no matter how meager it may be. It was not my intent to do harm, but I drew arms against you and took the risk anyway. However, you seem to have a problem. I regret to admit my ignorance of it till now, despite the warning signs and even after two years living together in the same damn room. It is a shameful failure on my part, and had I noticed sooner… perhaps I could have done something before now. For the time being, know only that we shall address it later.”[/color] [color=a55fb8]"Okay. I'm alright."[/color] Bonnie responded without eye contact to Camelot as her transformation failed, returning her to normal form. Of course there was something wrong with her. She was just a bad to mediocre person. 4/10. Any friend group she'd join would just break apart. She wasn't cool enough, strong enough, charismatic enough to solve these things. Ozma just whipped in and in a handful of words everything was okay. Bonnie could never be like that. A day. That was exactly how long it had taken for everything to fall apart again. One day. And this time they had even been fighting each other. The fact that she had been a target was unimportant. It was just that they had been fighting each other at all. Once? Maybe it was bad luck. Twice? Well, you're the common element. [color=a55fb8]"Can.. Can I go back for now? I don't think I'm ready for another fight."[/color] Bonnie asked after Ozma told them the Apex Pageless would likely be handled by someone else.
