[color=orange][i]Did I do something wrong?[/i][/color] Roche’s brows furrowed as confusion dominated her features under a cutting glare from Suki and a flicker of anxiety from Kiyo. She may not have been an empath but the look of betrayal that the eye-centric Magical Girl was sending her left Roche with the feeling of jogging across a dog turd. 

In comparison Suki’s look was business as usual. Grating, and leaving Roche with a foul taste in her mouth, but one she’d grown used to swallowing without indulging in an unhealthy dose of sanctimonious outrage.

[color=orange][i]I have to think of the team.[/i][/color] The Rulekeeper bit her tongue with a flicker of resentment, though Haruna would have been hard pressed to note one girl’s rising negativity from others when the club was thick with it. Like a brush stroke of tar across a seemingly innocuous club meeting, speckled with the colors of an individual's personal grief like river stones peeking through the silt.

And with the advent of Willow being in danger the Club did not so much spring into action but splinter, girls breaking off at differing speeds, while others had no interest in the lyrical girl’s fate at all. Unfortunately for Roche  it was her partners in the latter camp. 

[color=orange]”I think Willow will be fine with the help coming to her already. Let’s go hunt some Miseria, but be ready in case the GEMS show up.”[/color] Roche said, before vanishing in a flash that left Earthshaker standing in her place. She nodded at Nyxia before turning fully to Shuuko, knowing she was the one who needed convincing. [color=orange]”A gathering of Light and Dark girls is bound to draw in Miseria. We can pounce on them and circle around the conflict, so if they do need help we’ll catch those girls with their skirts down.”[/color]

Unsaid was that Roche had another reason not to throw Shatterscape into a fight alongside Hizuki.
