It seems to depend on the severity of the injuries...
[ tbf it is still better than. walking into a swamp. probably.
aqua nods, and places her other hand on top of robin's. (aki voice) handwich... the physical contact sets her more at ease, and her nort features recede a bit, hair and eyes turning bluer again. ]
I don't mind. It... may not entirely make sense, but I suppose these things usually don't. It feels like a dream, looking back on it...
[ she'll begin to recount to her that they were students of Tokyo Jujutsu High, sent on a mission to escort a young girl who would become the new vessel for Tengen, an immortal sorcerer that maintains the barriers protecting the Jujutsu High locations... ]
...I'd seen the girl before, actually. In one of Gojo's memories...
[ her grip is a bit more firm when aqua recounts. it becomes a neater handwich. ]
I saw... in Mr. Geto's memory. [ they really got this memory from each side of satosugu. her voice is quiet, but there is an inherent understanding of the sorrow that is to come. ]
... Were you taking part in that memory? Did you manage to change anything?

[ she frowns not that aqua can see it. ]
I'm going to reach for your hand.
[ so as to not surprise her, but robin does reach to rest her hand on top of aqua's. ]
Are you all right to talk about what happened?

I'm not entirely sure—I hadn't seen the full memory, only the very beginning of it. But we were sent on a very similar mission to protect Riko.
...We didn't succeed, though. If anything... I wonder if we made things worse.
[ she'll tell her about how the girl had been badly injured, how she died and turned into a cursed spirit. ]
...I wish we could've done something for her, even if it wasn't real.

[ robin looks to the side, not that aqua can see it. ]
I saw the end. Or near it. I know what Miss Riko wanted. [ how she wanted to live, to live a normal life. it's heartbreaking to robin. ]
I'm sorry you couldn't save her. [ ... ] I wish that you could have, too. The experience is real, but... if it is a reimagination of a past event...
[ it would have been nice to change it. even if it's like a dream (or nightmare). ]

...Yes, it would've been nice to give her a kinder fate somewhere. She was very sweet.
[ too young to be a sacrifice, to have her choices taken from her. she did hear from gojo she'd been assassinated, so. ]
no subject
[ they're teenagers doing tasks like fending off assassination attempts and almost dying. ]
