10th Striker Unit/Putting on a Brave Face
1) I did my best...I really did, and it wasn't enough...!
There's nothing else you could have done. Yoshika, it's not your fault.
(If you come by at just the right moment, you might find Yoshika in the brig-specifically, in the cell once occupied by Laura Ericks.
And she'll be crying openly, quiet responses of 'I should've been there! I could've saved her...I could've stopped her...!' being repeated over and over while running most of her last conversation with Laura back through her mind.)
Yoshika, you're not like me. You haven't made my mistakes. You won't. Don't do this to yourself.
(If you stop by and she hears you, she'll quickly wipe her tears away and force a smile on; yes, she does have a broom nearby and plans to use it as a cover story.)
...I'm here for you, too...
...I know. Believe me... it helps.
(At the moment however, she's sniffling and crying and not even paying attention to the intercom which has come on for some important news: For Sergeant Yoshika Miyafuji: your mother has arrived onboard. Sergeant Yoshika Miyafuji...)
2) (Yoshika eventually heard the surprising and welcome news, and found her Mom waiting for her on the deck. Mothers, having a knack for sensing certain things, saw past Yoshika's brave face after the hug she gave her...and Yoshika caved.)
I...I can't do this anymore, Mama. If all I can do is sit back and watch my friends die...feeling helpless as the people I care about leave me, then I wanna go home!
Yoshika...you've seen many more things than I could ever have hoped to witness in one lifetime, and while I'm sorry for the friends you've lost, is this really how you want your journey to end?
...B-but...
It's hard and it's painful, but this is part of life. Your father understood that as well.
(Ding! Yoshika suddenly recalls something Laura said not too long ago...which she repeats to her Mom.)
...All I can do now is remember them, and keep going.
That's my girl. Now, even though I can't stay too long I would like to meet your friends. Especially the one who you went on and on about-her name was Lynne?
...Ehhhhh?!!
(OOC: Yes I am pulling a Zappa, and for this one post will be NPCing Yoshika's mother! Those who want to embarrass Yoshika, go ahead-but be careful. She's still grieving.)

D-did you know Laura too...?
no subject
I joined the Chalice only shortly before the death of Frank Symes. But at the same time I've led men before and I know how painful it is to lose people you're close to.
And to lose Laura and Devon so soon afterwards too...
no subject
... did she have to die? I should've been there!
no subject
Some... less than others unfortunately.
[His own family; torn apart by Percolatii before they were replaced by the monstrosities came to mind.]
no subject
You've lost family, too? Before I joined the Witches, I lost my Dad...
no subject
My family was killed by a group of Percolatii. I was just a boy back then... I remember being told to hide in my room somewhere and the sounds...
They weren't pleasant.
TECZ showed up before long, but not fast enough to save my family.
