[For what it was worth, though, just someone being nearby is enough even if it doesn't show to her. Someone that she actually knew and actually was a friend, in spite of how much it feels now that this "Cologne" was her closest friend at some point.

She shakes her head.]

I don't know. There's no telling, but the way this... "Cure Moonlight" felt when he died was horrible. That's part of why it took me so long to really come on the Network...

[She puts a hand to her heart and sighs. She completely averts her gaze, now.]

And what makes me feel even worse about that is that it almost feels worse than when- [she bites her lip, not wanting to dump her life's history on Winter] -...than when I lost someone when I was a little girl. The difference is I knew that was coming, but this...

[It feels for all intents and purposes like this was a life ripped from Cure Moonlight. The presence of the fairies with Cerise and the other girl in that memory seemed to indicate them playing a part in things there, and... Then there was Dark Precure.

Her expression hardens a bit, and she looks back at Winter, finally.]

I needed to know this. Really, thank you, Winter. [She looks sadly at Winter's little blue partner, too.] And you as well, Raquel. But... I'm not sure if this is something I can tell Jasmine... Not yet.
