[There's a brief silence. When Delight speaks again, her voice is hardened, resolute.]
I'm volunteering to go. They picked me. Send me alone or-

People like you, 'round here. You're gonna be missed while you're out.

[Aww.]
I'm- I won't be gone long, alright?

[She offers him a little salute.]
Keep watch over the others for me, alright?

[It's cheerful, but her smile is a little sad.]
As long as you do what's best for them in your heart. I think you know that.
