That really strikes a chord in Lucas, his smile strained by knowing first hand. "I'm sorry...I know I've been asking some prying questions and you've been nice enough to put up with them. But I do get it."
He looks away, out over the water. Lost in thought for a few long moments before a quiet chuckle breaks it. The kind without mirth. "I mean, I'm no magical girl back home, but I know what it's like to be too young for some horrible stuff. It's hard for people to understand when it's what you do on the daily, and then losing your friends on top of it all. It's really...a lot."
Lucas's gaze drifts back to Undine, managing a lazy, fragile smile again. "I know we just met and all, but if I ever ask too much stuff you can just smack me or something, okay?"
