( oh good. he'll start writing out some wishes for her:
remember that you are good enough remember that you are strong enough remember that we'll always forgive you remember that you are loved remember that someone will always be with you remember that your family will always love you remember that family isn't just blood relatives remember that you're never a burden remember that yukine loves you remember that you do plenty for those around you remember that you help keep us all safe already remember not to worry about things you can't control remember that you are worthy remember that yukine loves you remember that yukine loves you remember that yukine loves you remember that you matter remember that yukine will always stand by you
then guiltily: remember that you deserve better than yato. )
( pausing. he's got to consider that he can't just be selfish about his feelings here, but he still feels bad about writing this one. he immediately turns in the priestess's hand to obscure the writing from view. )
Yes.
( leaning in closer to whisper: )

Is that so? Devotion has little to do with what one deserves but one wishes to give.
More importantly, these words do not translate into the meaning of the feeling as you have told it to me. However... perhaps something may yet be done with this wish.
[ NOT!Tsuyu brushes her fingers across the wooden plaque; the characters written down swim and rearrange themselves until the message has changed: Remember not to give more than is wise or healthy. ]

Most of these are quite lovely. However...
