It's strange is it not? The dragon saving the damsel in distress? By the regular tropes, the dragon should be causing the distress
Yet here they are in sweet embrace ]

Finger as best as she can, Noelle is
Pretending to be ready, putting on a strong face
This is going to hurt worse than any knife, but it will get the job done ]

[ but I'm not incorrect, the Thorn ring was effectively a parasite, it's roots acting as the eggs. ]

She'll see you in the morning, or more likely the evening.
I'm sure you understand how it is

[ as you start walking away, you stop for a moment ]

The roses won't last forever, think of it as her body pushing out a parasite and the eggs.
Should stop around December, I wanna say

She'll be as fine as she can be in spite of the things she's going through herself.
I'm going to bring her back to her house and put her in bed
This is the best idea I have for her right now.
Also sorry for the scare, I didn't know what else to do in that moment

I know what you want, and I'm sorry.
I can't just jump to you. I'd gladly pounce on that idea, but they'd know

[ I let out an exhausted sigh ]

Listen kid, you deserve a lot better than what your old man gave you
Stop putting him on such a pedestal
You don't need me to be happy

Vessel for me. Hell you won't even see my influence that much. I'm doing this to keep myself safe
So please keep these between you and I, okay?

I don't even understand why they'd want me...
I could never finish anything

God I'm so tired of that title, it's unearned.
Listen, Gabi? That's your name right? I am dealing with three people in particular who have far too much interest in me right now
One of them was able to get me OUT of one of them and I can't seem to get back inside of Kris
Noelle is not a permanent

[ your eyes do open, but they're not your eyes. They're mine. ]

Noelle's not here right now.

[ I'm able to stand you up just fine ]

Before you get any ideas, no I'm the same entity that was controlling the Kris that put the ring on her.
I am dealing with some shit right now

Well if I'm standing by the lake,
Something must've happened to make me sad...

Either that or I didn't have any control of myself

[ Yeah no shit ]

Who
Said that

[ Don't worry about it, you're tired now, in fact you've been up since six in the morning
You're hitting the ground unconscious ]

Well we were planning to go check in on Susie down at the hospital!
But I don't think that ever ended up happening

So much Susie...

I can't take it anymore

Umm...
Maybe Kris?

N,,no not at all

It's
One in the morning?

I was just waking up when I pulled the rose off, but that was at six or so in the morning...

They're
Relaxing, honestly

It's just that feeling of being trapped that's a little uncomfortable
