[That made her feel a lot better. She was useful to people and she felt more determined to be of use.]

I'm glad that there are people who understand that and I promise to do my best since I have at least mastered every spell I have.

[Which meant she could heal better than what others could do anyway.]

I have other jobs like Bard, Summoner and Illusionist as well... So I don't know which one will be of more use to this situation, but I'm sure I'll figure that out soon.

[tacticallyminded]

They can all be useful, but it depends how. The Empire uses Illusionists to hide their soldiers, for example.

[kobatonotdobato]

I-I know what an Illusionist can do. I got hurt by one some months ago.

[She could remember going that the research centre all that time ago like it was yesterday. But now that she thought about it, she felt like that she was much better than what she had been.]

[tacticallyminded]

Ah... I'm sorry, I should have thought about that.

[Robin shakes her head. She hesitates a moment, before she offers:] But... that you're here, anyways, means you're brave. I'm glad for that.

[kobatonotdobato]

[She smiled slightly, giving a tiny nod. She liked being called brave.]

Thanks...Though I only do it because I want to help. I'm not really brave, I am scared... But To help I have to charge though it. Besides, it's the least I could do after everything I have seen or done; both the good and bad.

[tacticallyminded]

Mm... I think doing something despite being afraid makes you brave. Everyone's scared, sometimes, aren't they? I certainly am.

[kobatonotdobato]

Really? I thought people did things because they were brave and didn't care what happened. I never would have thought they would be scared.

[tacticallyminded]

No... that's being foolhardy. That's not caring about the end result.

[Robin shakes her head.]

Bravery is being frightened, and overcoming it. That requires strength, not bullheadedness.

[kobatonotdobato]

Oh, okay... Though what does bullheadedness mean? I've never heard that name before.

[She tilted her head slightly, she wasn't sure what a bull had to do with anything really.]

[tacticallyminded]

Oh, ah. Charging ahead regardless of common sense or safety. Like a bull?

[kobatonotdobato]

Oh...Bull do that. I've never actually seen a bull before.

[She might have come across them in books, but never in person to know for sure. But she trusts what the other was saying.]

I think I've checked everything now. [She looks at the list she had been given checking it over quickly, looking at what they have and finished off.]

[tacticallyminded]

It's a saying. I don't have a lot of experience with bulls, either, I admit.

[She looks down at the boxes, taking stock and mentally checking them off.]

Thank you! You were a big help.

[kobatonotdobato]

Really? I thought you had. But I guess if it's a saying it's another matter.

[She hands the thing back over before giving a small bow or two... or three.]

Thank you for letting me help out, it was an honour.

[tacticallyminded]

Of course--ah! I'm Robin.

[She smiles and extends a hand out.]

[kobatonotdobato]

I'm Kobato Hanato.

[She holds out her own hand to shake the others.]

Now I should go and check on other people in need. [She lets go before turning around and starts to head off. She wanted to make sure that others got the help they needed as well.]
