[he'll point that out gently as he offers a smile]
In truth, I don't put my faith in much... but I don't mind putting it in all of us. We've all done the best that we can, and now we'll see what the results are. It's that simple.
If nothing else, I am glad I have been able to see it to the end with the both of you.
[ everything is glitchy and it feels like the end of things, one way or another. does she have faith that this system will allow them to save themselves? she's not sure. but they have done everything they can to protect each other. ]
Ugh, that makes this sound too much like a farewell. I don't want to think about it.
[ damn what a mood, hilda.... despite how terrible everything is, he doesn't want to think about being apart from them. or that it's all going to end. ]
[ now he'll be the one reaching out for one of each of their hands. wow. ]
... I picked yes. I'm not going to give up because I'm afraid I might fail. And I won't stand for anything less than a total victory, considering all we went through.
[ . . . . oh? soo-won tilts his head briefly before letting zuko take his hand, and then he'll match by offering his own hand out to hilda. hand holding circle!]
I did the same.
I am willing to accept some concessions and sacrifice - however none chose to be in this situation, and so if there are more chances to be given, then we ought to keep trying until we save 'all'.
[ wow, zuko reaching out for their hands rather than them comforting him, the turns have tabled. it's a lighter atmosphere than it was before—things at least feel more... resolved now.
they did their best. she wouldn't blame anyone if they were done trying. ]
You're both so stubborn... why did I even ask?
[ she must've known the answer already. ]
Though I picked yes too, so I must be just as bullheaded.
... no, I don't think so. I only did what I thought I could. And even if there were times of work.... I more closely treasure the times of play.
[when they could just get to chat, and not have to be worried about things. they were a bit... well, few, but.]
I'm happy - that at the end, I am with the both of you.
[and he thinks that's more important to him than the concept of simply assisting each other. it's not a matter of what they are doing or what their goals are -
but the people he is with, and the way he cherishes them.]
[ you did your best to be sweet also, zuko. she smiles fondly despite herself and how embarrassing they're being. ]
Honestly, it was a team effort. You can't get results at this kind of thing alone—not just because of information! But... I don't know. If I hadn't come clean to the two of you when I had, who knows how this cycle might have gone?

I think the worst case scenario is that this really is our final try.
[ .... ]
I don't think we made the wrong choice. But I don't know. I've made a lot of bad choices.

I think I would say the same in all rounds.

I guess we're rubbing off on you.
[ how sad for hilda. ]

[DON'T JUST ADMIT TO THAT IMMEDIATELY]
If anything, we should be learning more from her.
no subject
Absolutely not. Don't learn anything from me.
[ she sighs, allowing herself a moment of sincerity in the face of kindness. ]
We wouldn't have made it this far without either of you. You both know that, right?
no subject
... He's right. You are the best of us.
[ he still doesn't feel like he did a lot, but he knows he can't vocalize that without them jumping on him, so he just huffs a little. ]
You did most of the work. ... Both of you.
