( pffft. the sardonic probably doesn't translate well via text but it's there. )

Almost everyone here's more powerful than I am, Venti. I'm past the point where that scares me enough to be a deterrent.

But I appreciate your concern. ( it's way easier to swallow than any of ebalon's lacking apologies. )

I'm sure you've made friends or allies with quite a few impressive people yourself. Me included, if you ever might need to call for me. He's powerful, but of course there's more to power than sheer magic.

[ anyway he can't help but be concerned for his... follower. yep. yeah. ]

I hope for you to be well, whatever happens.

( she has natsuno, at least. and realistically, ask if she'd take the entirety of the ship or him in her corner, it'd be an easy choice. )

I am never going to ask you to fight Ebalon with or for me.

( doesn't want to do that to mizuki. doesn't want to put venti in that position. honestly feels like she shouldn't even be talking to him about that, but the message already sent and asdfghj. )

Whatever happens, I'll be fine. Promise. Always am in the end.

And I hope the same for you.

[ that...... wasn't what he meant to imply, just a reassurance that power wasn't just limited to what she was physically capable of. but he does reread and yeah, he can see maybe it would be an odd thing to say right after talking about ebalon.

he recalls what she'd told him in prayer. she didn't fight ebalon for him, he wouldn't presume that at all. it'd sure be nice to think this could be an end of conflict between them but, well, maybe all anyone could do is just... try.

he just sends an emote in parting. there won't be casual conversation between them, he supposes. ] 🕊
