Bernie is being selfish.

She knows it. She’s not a fool. She remembers Yuri. Remembers how it’s safer for Leonie not to know Bernie at all, to stay as far away from her as possible, to forget that Bernie ever existed.

Bernie was being selfish. But after the time they’d have, Bernie felt like she deserved it, just a little.

She sobbed and launched herself forward, wrapping her arms around Leonie as the smaller girl shook and sobbed against her chest. “W-we didn’t know where they were t-taking all of you! B-but you don’t have a crest, and they took you away, and I was so scared th-that...”

That Leonie would end up just like Yuri.
