Part 364: Sumia C

I'll be safe... I'll be dead... I'll be safe... I'll be dead...

Sumia, what are you doing?

Oh, just seeing how I'll get on in the next battle.

...By pulling petals off a flower?

Yes. ...Why? Is that strange?

Well, no stranger than any other attempt to foretell the future, I suppose.

I don't put much stock in horoscopes. Fate is what you make it, I always say.

I wish I was strong as you, Cordelia.

How so?

You have so much confidence in yourself you actually think you can control even fate. I'm just thrilled if I can walk through camp without tripping on a stool.

Our only limits are the ones we place on ourselves.

But...

In fact, it's time you got rid of yours. First rule: no more flower fortunes.

What?! But how will I-

Second rule: no questions! You don't need some weed to tell you what to do, Sumia. You control your own destiny. Trust me on this.

Er, okay...
