Hildegard fell backward onto the ground, and let out a small groan. She was in pain, she was tired and woozy and all of a sudden it was too bright for her. She slowly brought her hand to her eyes, shielding the sun from her eyes, and carefully placed herself in a sitting position, wincing as she did so. She didn't feel offended that Joel had scrambled away. If she had been in his position, she would have done the same thing. "Hildegard…Hildegard Kaiser…at your service…," she said weakly. God, it even hurt to talk. What even happened? Everything was going well, a small flow of magic was being transferred to the boy, and then, all of a sudden, there was this tugging sensation and it suddenly felt like someone was ripping her magic away from her.
Maya watched as Franziska's face turned red. Whether it was out of anger or shame, she didn't know. And then, Miles glanced at her with a worried look, and her heart sank. "I….I just fucked up, didn't I?" God, she hadn't meant to anger her! She just wanted to help her! And here she thought she was making progress with her…..had she pushed her too far? She braced herself for whatever words Franziska was surely about to say to her.
(idk why but having maya think franziska is mad at her and waiting for franziska to tell her to mind her own business and to leave her alone is more fun to me than anything else i could have responded with. also the fact that Maya cursed means she thinks she just 100% ruined something)
