[ Drowning in her own regret sounds nice, she thinks. Maybe it'd be a fitting punishment. But it'd be much too easy.
She hates him for being right. For sounding so reasonable. She's resented Ardyn for his coolness, his calm before now but she's never so vehemently hated him as she does right now. Hated his inhumanity, hated his inability to understand that it didn't matter if she couldn't change anything. It still hurt. Ruu was still gone. She didn't need to be reminded that dwelling on it would help no one. Least of all her or Ruu.
She draws in all that bitterness with a long breath and tells herself that if she still hates him this much when she lets it out, then she'll tell him just what she thinks. But just as expected, when Yuuri exhales her anger goes with it. All that's left is exhaustion and a dull grief throbbing in her throat. ]
... I can't... do anything for Ruu-chan. [ Saying it, admitting it feels like spitting barbed wire. ] But... I can do something here. I can do everything in my power to make sure I don't fail anyone else like that.
