[soulping]

You step into a small airy room made entirely of porcelain and frosted glass. Squishy armchairs — the old fashioned type; pretty velvet affairs with patterns of roses in your team’s color and legs of dark wood — line the walls.

[ She looks like she wants to say something against playing the swift kill card, but ends up holding her tongue. It was painful, but they'd get brought back, right? Yuu was fine, now, if...well, emotionally distraught. ]

...I'd like to request we not play any cards against Epona, if possible.
