[Immediately post-Wonder Quartet]
[Private Message to Reiji:]
I protected your Keystone, like you wanted. You can consider this the end of our arrangement.
[Private Message to Hibiki:]
Hey. I'm gonna do my own thing from here on out. Take care of yourself, okay?
[Event:]
[Alexandra is immediately approaching a few people after the climax of the Wonder Quartet and Yuya's duel with Reiji. Top of that list includes Yuya, Yuma and Labrys. Before, in between or after she's spoken to those people, she's open to be approached by anybody else who was present in the Quartet.]

But I could admit that my standards of what constitute extended repentance may... likely be different from what humans usually consider to be reasonable. But... Guilt may also simply carry on without stop, at times.
no subject
I let Academia do as they please. I let tons of people get turned into cards, because I let myself think I had to focus on one person out of everybody. [She puts a hand over her eyes.]
....Yuzu was right there with me. And I left her. I knew it was wrong and I did it anyway.

[She points at Serena.]
Akaba Reiji told me to protect her from Academia during the Wonder Quartet. No matter what.
We had them both in a safe place. But they split up. I wanted to stay with Yuzu, but.
[Obviously, that didn't happen.]
no subject
... He told me a little about who she is. A religious icon to the attackers. Important to them.
Why did they split up?
no subject
no subject
... Can I wager a guess that she likely insisted on going alone, to more effectively act as bait?
no subject
I still should've...
...I could've done something instead of just letting her go off alone.
no subject
But that's just it. You prepared yourself for this attack, but from the offset, all you knew was to protect one person. You didn't know that anyone else would've been a target, so you couldn't act accordingly to it. And from what I knew, that girl, Serena, was the only one who was being sought after.
And... maybe it just sounds like excuses. Reasons to throw off responsibility about it. But mistakes are made. The only way to handle them is to fix them.
*she puts her hands on Alex's shoulders, squeezing a bit firmly, but it's... meant to be a comforting gesture, not a threatening one.* You should find a way to do that, Alexandra.
no subject
I want to do that.
no subject
... Maybe there is somewhere in the 12 Dimensions, that knows the answer to that? It seems like it would be something that one of the worlds would have some knowledge about, given the basis.
no subject
If I can stop Academia and bring back those people...
I dunno. Maybe that'd be a start.
no subject
Maybe so. But... Please don't hesitate to ask me to help, if there's any way I possibly can. Even if it's to help you get to where you need to be.
no subject
...thanks, Labrys.
I, uh.
I gotta go talk to Yuya and Yuma. After that...we can head to the island?
no subject
It's no problem. Please, take your time. I'll be waiting.
... Though, ah... *... she wonders if she should say it... ... may as well.*
Just a quick question, and I'll let you go. Who do you know, among Akaba's... people, I should say? Even as passing notice.

no subject
That's about all I can think of.
no subject
... There's, ah...
One you may want to eventually at least meet, but I think it's up to you if you want to face that or not.
no subject
Who's that?
no subject
*she points out a man who's been kinda staying out of the way and checking some nearby equipment that had been set up for the Quartet.
He. Gives you kinda an immediate sense of déjà vu that you can't pinpoint or describe.*
no subject
Uh...okay. He looks sorta familiar, I guess I might've seen him in Maiami at some point or something?
Do you know him?
no subject
And... no, I think you met him here, in Domino City.
His name is Yamada, Mamoru. *... bracing herself a bit* The one that Scythe possessed, before.
no subject
[Alex's eyes widen. She takes another look at him. This time, she actually focuses, and...]
Holy shit.
