It went better than expected!- Location: Star Rose

[[backdated to right after Sortie! The Twisted colony.]]

[So despite everyone getting out okay and the adrenaline from defeating the aliens has finally run out, Ryuichi is still going to find a nice corner to sit and sulk in.
And by sulk I mean blast his jams so loud he can't hear anything-but others might be able to hear the bass themselves, while his fingers hammer his tablet to type up something super dumb and pointless to vent his frustrations of being a trick yoyo in space.]

How do people even deal with that stuff...

[He's honestly amazed noone died and that he didn't go flying off into the inky blackness. He'll head off back to Japan base once he's done being amazed.]

[streamedastar]

Heh, glad I could help out.

Honestly though I didn't expect my first mission to be in space.

[herodrawing]

It was your first mission too?

[streamedastar]

...Yeah?

[herodrawing]

Then it was like a large hero team's debut! I'm so happy that it ended up as well as it did, in the end.

[streamedastar]

Yeah. I was really worried when the missile hit the colony.

[herodrawing]

I think my heart skipped a beat when that happened...

But, wait! It's not your fault, really!

[streamedastar]

At least nobody got hurt...

I know it's not, but I can't help thinking I was an idiot there.

[herodrawing]

Everyone calls me an idiot all the time too. I know how that feels.

But we won in the end and almost no one died, that's what matters, right?

[streamedastar]

Would have been nice if nobody had died.
I wish we could have saved him.

[herodrawing]

Yeah...

Commander Bruzar sacrificed himself so everyone else could get out safely. But if there was some way!

[streamedastar]

[He looks away, starting to droop into a rut again.]

[herodrawing]

[Izuru doesn't know what else to say. Talking about heroism is one thing, but seeing people die like that?

He's not used to it. And not happy about it, either.]

[streamedastar]

[Ryuichi straightens and tries to bring the conversation a better direction]

...You're a good guy though, Izuru.
You jumped into those aliens despite the odds. For a second I was worried I would have to do it on my own.

[herodrawing]

Ah!

[Snap out of it, Izuru!]

Thanks. Let's both do our best the next time, too!

[streamedastar]

[Nods]
Absolutely.
I'll throw in my lot with you any time.
