Eponine watches Yosuke in silence for a few minutes before she closes her eyes Had she been physically able to, she would have run at this point. Run away and never looked back.
Except, she had to open her eyes again. She's exhausted now, and she looks it. There is only so much a teenager can deal with, and Eponine hit her limit a long time ago. Yosuke upset is something that just needs fixing, and fixing quickly.
"Yosuke?" Her voice is very quiet. "Yosuke, I'm sorry. You don't have to pay me. I know it's not your fault. I'm just... I'm tired. I am so tired of doing the right thing and getting nowhere. Do you not see? I could be rich if I go to Afterglow, just for six months. And whatever happens to me there; however I am tied and mauled and pawed at, if they whip me or scratch or kiss... It has been so before, and I know how to feel nothing now. But a friend helps, you know. So I can think of you whilst I lie. It helps me forget, you know? We ARE still friends, no?"
Re: Action! :)
