<span class="mu-r">“Well yeah, your allowance isn’t that high…er, wait.”</span>
You paused to look at her.
<span class="mu-r">“‘A promise of power is more tempting than what you can offer?’ That’s not true. There are a lot of things people value more than power. Even criminals.”</span> you continued. <span class="mu-r">“Tombstone handed over his whole empire to the Goblin in exchange for his daughter’s life, and then burned it all down out of revenge when he found out that he was the culprit.”</span>
Cindy looked thoughtful for a moment.
<span class="mu-r">“Wait, wait, wait…are you seriously making ME lecture YOU about heroism? Is today opposite day, or something? Is this what they’re teaching you in school? It hasn’t even been a day, yet!”</span> you smugly exclaimed.
Cindy just waved you off without turning to look at you.
<span class="mu-r">“But seriously,”</span> you said, persisting in your argument. <span class="mu-r">“Prioritizing your own safety is completely fine, and you can’t save people from their own choices.”</span>
<span class="mu-s">“That’s just it.”</span> Cindy signed. <span class="mu-s">“She doesn’t know anything about me yet. If I decide to do this, then I only have 4 years to prevent her from becoming a monster. And that’s if she even wants to be around me.”</span>
<span class="mu-r">“You’ll never know unless you try.”</span> you reasoned. <span class="mu-r">“The opinion of people you care about can end up leading you to make life-altering decisions. All it takes is a push at the right time, and all the pieces could fall into place.”</span>
Cindy’s face took on a pensive expression, and she remained silent for almost an entire minute.
Finally, she sighed and signed <span class="mu-s">“I’ll think about it. There’s no guarantee that she’s really going there, anyway.”</span>
But despite her words, she still looked troubled. Seeing as how she was distracted, you used this opportunity to bring up a more sensitive topic that had been weighing on your mind.
<span class="mu-r">“So…this 'Miles', boy.”</span> you said slowly.
Cindy half turned her head to acknowledge you, but she still seemed to be staring off into space.
What will you say?

You also seemed to be hitting it off with that student tour guide that knew sign language.”>”This goes without saying, but try not to let anything slip about us.
