What if I told you I could cure you?

[That's the question Law starts with.

He had sat her down on a chair in her living room, staring at her from above his steepled hands. He watched her every move, every slight change in her expression in silence.

The moment he had heard her story he knew that he wanted to help her. It wasn't fair. It wasn't right. A girl as young as she was deserved the chance to live. She deserved the chance to be free. She didn't deserve to be bound by such a twisted, perverted system.

After all, she was still just a kid and the decision that Kyuubey had asked her to make, the choice he had given her, had not been a fair one.

She deserved a second chance.]

What if I told you I could put your soul back in your body?

[He does understand. He understands more than she knows.

Law doesn't say anything to that. He doesn't feel like he needs to. He simply nods, lifting his free hand to ruffle lightly at her hair.]

Why don't you go get yourself cleaned up, Kyoko. Before we go I want to take you to the office and give you a quick checkup.

[Her cheeks tinge pink, but the feeling of his hand on her head isn't a bad one. For a moment, she wonders if maybe this is what having an older brother might have been like.

That means she has to tease him at least a little, right?]

... Mm. Just this once though, okay?

[getaroom]

[He chuckles, giving her a light, playful shove.]

Just go already.
