Pairing/Characters: Cherry Alamak, Julian Boreas
Rating: Not Rated
Content Notes: CNTW
Prompt: 29 Mar - do Cherry Alamak & Julian Boreas find the glass half-empty or half-full?
"Someday -- soon, I hope! -- this's all going to be over, and it's going to be ..."
"Don't."
Julian's bark left Cherry blinking, startled. He wasn't usually like that! Before she could retort, though, the Duelist kept right on going --
"Don't say it. Just -- not today, Cherry. Not today."
She eyed him sharply, leaning an elbow on the table between them.
"What's wrong with trying to be just a bit optimistic in this mess?"
Green eyes flashed; Julian's expression going stony.
"So what're you going to do after it all, anyway, Cherry? Go home?"
"I -- oh."
Oh.
"... I'm sorry. Really."
"It's okay."
