I just took a deep breath as the dungeon slowly began to change. Then I calmly turned toward Lucia and Sue.
"A- Adrian? You're... okay, right?"
I just smiled. I raised my arm in the air, clenched my fist a few times, and let it go.
"I'm fine, for now."
That wasn't enough, of course. I could see the worry in her eyes, but also the curiosity.
"Let's get through tonight first. We can save the talking for later."
Sue opened her mouth again, but this time it was Lucia who stopped her. When she put her hand on his shoulder, Sue reflexively turned to her, and so did I. But while Sue was busy listening to what he was telling her, I... for a completely different reason... couldn't take my eyes off him for a while.
She was the same, I wouldn't say her looks had changed since the last time I saw her, but... she was also strangely different. She was more noticeable, more beautiful even. She had gone through a much bigger change than the one I had always felt.
