No. They can't have her.

[a shuddery sigh.]

Then it’s settled. If we can’t figure out something to stop tomorrow, then we’ll do it long term.

[ he gives her shoulders a little squeeze ]

One way or another.

[she nods, a little heartened.]

Thank you, Yuri. [...] Um, by the way. All of those missing bodies from the graveyard - I do happen to have their skeletons in my room currently. In case that ever comes up again, I would want you to know it is not...well, we ran into the same misunderstanding at the station, when you told me something was eating the dead, and I thought you might be thinking of something else that was happening.

[ harrow your bones. ]

... "Nothing to concern ourselves with", was it?

[ ...... ]

Is it the same situation here as there?

Well. There is no UWU involved. But yes, there's...a similar reason for it. It is far less sinister than it may appear.

[ he nods. ]

...

No, I'm... not so worried about it now. [ sometimes you have... thoughts. ] Although I do feel bad for Estelle having to dig up all those graves for evidence and finding that.

[ "emet-selch was also there" poor sweet estelle... ]

...As do I. It was not a kind weekend to her.

No. I think she was quite fond of Kaeya herself, and Rupert.

She told me Kaeya knew someone who had known her from home. Estelle is here alone, it must be difficult.

From the situation he was in before? [ … ] It’s one thing to be in one of these yourself, and another to hear someone important to you was in one as well and you weren’t able to help them.

Yes. I think Kaeya and this person had known each other well, and he had told Kaeya about Estelle. So I think she felt safe with him. He'd already heard of her before arriving here, had reason to care for her in particular.

Keeping an eye out for a friend of a friend, huh?

…

I can understand it.
