... I mean, I wouldn't have minded much if it wasn't taken but I have nothing to pour my thoughts out to. Not to mention I don't even know who took it.
[She tilts her head at him. Of course she knows exactly what he's talking about, but she can't let that on, can she? So she'll just have to let him assume that he needs to explain.]
That's not just it. What if it ended up in that guy's hands? The one who called us anomalies and wanted us gone? There were important stuff in there, what would they even do with it?!
Augh, I shouldn't have written it down. I'm so stupid!
--!!! [That is a frighteningly good guess, and she sucks in a breath. It's horrible, watching him like this-- and even more so when the ice cream ends up on the grass.]

... Namine?

Yes?

action;
Ven... you don't have to apologize for that.
action;
action;
... But... you're right. I'm sure there are people who are worried about you.
action;
... I don't even know where to start.
action;
I can wait. [It's gentle, but firm.]
action;
Man, just when I thought everything was getting better...
action;

action;
Yeah.
... I mean, I wouldn't have minded much if it wasn't taken but I have nothing to pour my thoughts out to. Not to mention I don't even know who took it.

I would have more peace of mind if they just took my money.

[She can't help feeling terrible, but she does her best not to look like it; it'll only upset him.]
I know, Ven. But... you can get a new one. [Even though she knows that's not really the whole problem.]
action;
Augh, I shouldn't have written it down. I'm so stupid!
[And in his rage he upsets his ice cream.
!!

brb watching it melt on the grass.]
action;
....
[Oh, Ven.]
action;
action;
[It's gentle, at least, but afterward she pauses... then holds her own ice cream toward him.]
action;
I'm sorry. I just. I don't know anymore.
action;
....
That's okay. Everyone... has times like that.
action;
... I really don't want to bottle up all of the feelings I have right now.
action;
....
[But as for that other part...]
... Then... don't.
action;
[SUP GUYS, I'M A NUCLEAR WEAPON.]
Even... even Aqua.
[He can't. Tell her now that he's decided on giving up. That he plans to bring Vanitas down with him.]
