Just as Severa said, saying her goodbyes was gonna be easy. She didn't need to say any! Kjelle, Noire...pshaw. They'd be fine! ...okay maybe not Noire as much, but whatever. Things would be fine.
But rather than say any goodbyes, Severa did want to talk to one person in particular, someone she felt needed to hear from her. She approached Touma Kamijou at the moment he was alone, drumming her fingers on her thigh as she readied to say her piece. There had been a reason she had stayed quiet initially, when he had broke down in tears earlier, and he was going to find out why that was now.
She put her hand on his shoulder to get his attention, and almost immediately her own resolve started fading. "...hey." Even just that one word made her feel awkward. Ugh. Why was all this emotional junk so hard?! No wonder Phil shot her... "Okay. This will be the ONLY time I say this, so listen up. Got it? Good." She took a deep breath. "Okay." How to start this...
"...look. I...I know you probably feel like a huge steaming pile of mule dung right about now. And I get it. This whole thing just sucks! I mean, I only signed up for this group to get off Avalon, and now I'm trying to save the entire MULTIVERSE? Give me a break!" You're making it about you, Severa. Back up... "...but yeah. I get it. Taking the happiest possible world away from everyone you've ever cared about...that's horrible."
Okay, here we go... "But I don't want you thinking less of yourself for what you're going to do here, okay? We're freeing tons of billions of people from the rule of a tyrannical child...even if it takes away all this perfect peace. And...um..."
She sighed, bracing herself for the hardest part of this speech...for her, anyways. "Don't you dare think of yourself as cruel and awful for this, got it? You're literally the nicest guy I've ever met. You've been so kind and generous with me, even when I didn't really deserve it. Everything you've done up to this point, and heck, even this decision...it's never been about what YOU want. You put others before yourself at every opportunity, and I bet if these people could remember that...you would be hailed as a hero. This wasn't decided lightly, and I think...I think you made the right choice. So, don't be so hard on yourself, okay? You deserve better than that."
As if all of that mushy-gushy crap wasn't bad enough, at that point Severa realized that her grip on his shoulder had tightened. Oh, come on!! She quickly let go, trying not to turn red, and coughed. She also eyed him with a look that made it clear he was not to tell anyone about this, EVER. "Ahem! Right. So...let's go, y-yeah? We have some Magic God rear-end to kick."
