one for sorrow, two for mirth
three for marriage, four for birth
five for the truth and six for lying
seven for sickness, eight for dying
nine for silver, ten for gold
eleven for a secret that shall never be told
twelve for the moon, thirteen for the sky
fourteen for the accursed unable to die
and fifteen for my heart's last desire
a new day's dawn, reborn in fire

Threatening me will get you nowhere. I already place his safety above my own.

I'm not threatening you. I'm just telling you what's going to happen if he gets hurt on your watch. But if you're so concerned about his safety, that won't be a problem, will it?

[founderinglight]

I'm a politician, I know a veiled threat when I hear one. Dislike me all you please, but I must ask that you not pretend I'm stupid.

[serrata]

I don't think you're stupid at all. You can't have been, not to get away with what you pulled for so long.

I just want to make sure no one else I love is going to end up getting hurt.

[founderinglight]

Then you need not treat me as an enemy, so long as our priorities so align. I don't want anyone to get hurt, but especially your family.

[ And somehow that puts a pin in her antagonism. Just a little. The acknowledgement that the family she has is hers, that Izunia knows, perhaps, that he doesn't yet have a claim to it – maybe that's what she really wanted to hear.

There's an obvious pause before Yuuri finally responds. ]

Good.

Just keep in mind; he's a troublemaker. You'll definitely need to keep an eye on him.

There will be several sets of eyes, as well as Ignis. You need not have any concern at all.
