It's really scary, honestly. To try and think about wanting to discover those things... I just- I feel like it's necessary. Not just for my sister, but... I think if I'm to inherit the same things Cure Moonlight did, I have a bit of responsibility to know where it comes from.
[She averts her eyes a bit, her cheeks coloring slightly.] But I appreciate that. That there's anyone even willing to say that means a lot.
[Possibly a lot more than Lily's letting on - she doesn't ask people for help. Not normally. Having to do so to save Jasmine showed how truly desperate and, really, kind of helpless she was in that situation. Winter's "living for other people" comment rings very true in her head, as it was all she ever did herself.
For Lily, though, this had long since meant sitting on her own problems and trying to logic them out on her own. Not exactly the healthiest mindset maybe, but it was how she had gotten used to things being.
But she feels now as if she can trust Winter there. That... is a very different sort of feeling for her, and one she's not sure how to fully process in that moment.
Instinct to avert her own momentary embarrassment then kicking in, she gives a small laugh.]
Just don't be afraid to kick me if I am too much trouble. [Her eyes turn back to meet the other girl's.] But... if you ever need anything, please don't hesitate to ask, too. I owe you a lot already at this point.
