yaydanger | (1) Video - Action for Forest, entering the village

[Tharja has seen many things in her strange lifetime, but this device is a new one. However, she instantly deems it useless, and so throws it on the ground - as a result, it turns on during her rant.]

- will pay, oh yes, they will pay... Damn them all...

[As a result of being on the ground, the angle you get of her is a little weird. But she's looking very exhausted and sickly... most likely a result of her ripping off some of those black feathers on her back. You can see them clutched in her hand. Someone should tell her that wasn't a good idea.]

Ugh... There's... there's no way they would have left me behind. Robin would never have let that happen. Walhart... he and his army, they must have...

[She has to lean on a tree now, clutching a book to her chest. She takes a few deep breaths, before pushing off the tree and trying to walk again.]

I'll destroy every single last soldier... I'll turn them into toads... no, I'll make them into rats, and feed them to the cats... I'll... I'll... I'm going to be sick...

They are the scientists keeping us here! They are very unyouthful!

And if you wish, then that will be so, Mi- er, Ma'am! But, what am I to call you instead?!

... My name is Tharja.

Tharja-san!! I'll protect you with my life! My name is Rock Lee, I am Konoha's Beautiful Green Wild Beast!! Please let me help you!!

I can protect myself.

[Rocks in his head, no doubt. She pushes herself off the tree, wobbly as she tries to walk.]

But... You've lost feathers! Just for now, it would be best to seek help! [He watches her carefully, concerned.]

I... don't... need... HELP!

[And she almost falls over, save for her catching her balance just in time.]

[Lee actually dives over, in a perfect position to catch her had she not caught herself.]

What is wrong? I do not wish to leave you to suffer!

...

...

I... pulled out a lot of feathers...

[She hates to admit it, but, well, apparently she'd done a really dumb thing.]

[His eyes shimmer.]

Then... please allow me to aid you!

[She's starting to wonder if death would actually be better.]

Gods... Fine, you can help me... just don't cry.

Yes, Tharja-san! I will be strong for you! [And he wipes the tears from his eyes.]

I will escort you to medical attention! I can also support or carry you! Please, feel free to accept this offer!

... You may carry me. But you will never tell a single soul about this.

I will be sworn to secrecy! Do not worry! [He salutes.]

Would you prefer to ride on my back, or in my arms? [He alternates between the two positions.]

... Arms. Just hold me, you babbling idiot.

Yes, Tharja-san! I will not let go!! [And he reaches to carefully lift her!]

[She sighs, hating how humiliating this is. She clutches her tome to her chest, grumbling and hoping that no one from the army ever saw this.]

... Th... thank you.

[He gives just a curious glance to the tome as he carries her bridal style.]

Don't worry about it! Your safety is a priority! [He offers a cheery smile. And then he races onwards.]
