It was hard to stomach that. She knew she messed up, and this might be the only chance to fix this. As if propelled by another her entirely, she held an arm out, preventing passage.
"No. You know what happens when you vent like this." she put her foot down metaphorically. "Before you run off and get hurt, at least sit down and hear me."
Raion decided to leave for this, as it wasn't her place. Should Zeph decide to stay, she would be regailed with the same story Raion was given. About how she was twisted into letting her guard down and the exact ways that it had happened. She would hear the terrible things Arceia had said, and she would know that every detail was planned out.
PPossibly even the loss itself.

The tall girl looked down at the arm that suddenly blocked her way and she took a small step back. Her features remained impassive, that was until June started explaining.
Zeph sat back down on the bed and rubbed her heel of her hand against her forehead.
"I.. know Arceia is manipulative and she would use this." The Gael huffed out a breath. "But that didn't make it any easier to watch. And it didn't look.. well, like you minded all that much."
She finally looked up to her girlfriend and sighed and looked down again. This was stupid.. She was being stupid. They had only been dating for a day and she was getting jealous over something that happened during the middle of a fight. It didn't help when she was told about what Arceia had said either. Those two had a past that she most certainly was not a part of. It twisted her insides to think that the Chancellor would use her against June. Were they just words, or had she meant it? A hand shoved back her lose strands of hair.
"I don't know how to deal with this, June.. This jealousy and all these manipulations. I want to explode on someone, but what good will that do? You couldn't control what she did. It's not fair of me to be upset with you, but I can't control my feelings like I thought."

June had no way to proceed that didn't risk something, and so she decided it was worth it. She moved in, ignored whatever was in her way to do this, picked up Zeph's chin, and kissed her. Not lightly like the last one they did. A long, lasting kiss that she was deliberately trying to do, rather than something she had no time to react to. There was no other way to say what she needed to say, so she let words go to the wayside in favor of action.
It took the sound of the final activity being called upon for her to finally pull away.
"Let this tell you. What she did to me meant nothing. What I've done here to you, that's what meant everything. Understand?"

Her head tipped back as it was directed, her brow furrowed in confusion before all melted as their lips met. Zeph lifted a hand and gently rested it against June's arm. A shiver raced down her spine and she slowly opened her eyes when the girl pulled back.
"Uh.." Her cheeks flushed and she quickly looked back down to her lap. Swallowing before biting her lower lip.
What could she say to that? A quick glance up and she drew June back down by the collar of her armor to let their lips met once more.

This next event is going to be fun, actually." June said before being pulled back into another kiss. She didn't hesitate to keep it for a while, but parted as soon as the alarms sounded.
"Okay so, remember how I said there was a game of keep-away happening? What I left out was that it's a free for all to take down Valkyr and I, as the winners of the two events prior..." she laughed nervously. "Basically, everyone's hunting me and her right now, so let's get out of here and hide."
Raion heard that part and came back in.
"Arceia is bound to be coming your way then."
"Exactly why we gotta run." June insisted. "Her, Summer and Crimson Mistress all want a piece of this. And frankly, I think I can handle all of them one on one, but not together."

Zeph, still flushed, lips a little red from the abuse of their kisses, leaned out so she could see Raion. Then looked up at June.
"Free for all? Does that mean I can interfere? You won't be alone that way. Raion could help out too. We three police must stand together, right?"
She stole a glance at the girl once more and couldn't help but smile. Her insecurities were banished for the time being with June's reassurance so she was feeling a little more uppity now.
"We better get going though. Any ideas where we should go?"
The redhead was now on her feet, strapping a few weights onto her wrists. They could double as guards if she were in need of them.

Quite honestly, this next bit could be summed up rather easily. The rest of the afternoon, in fact, was a gigantic battle. There were two primary targets, but everyone could fight everyone else in a Hunger Games style battle Royale using whatever was scavenged. The result was the party of June, Raion, and Zeph being quite capable of handling the crowd, albeit while dodging Arceia, Summer and Crimson Mistress the whole time.
It was a lazy explanation to advance things a bit faster, but it was useful since the final event was going to be the least detailed anyway.

Salute to the master of skips. And now we proceed!
Zeph grinned then hopped onto June's back, arms around her neck and long legs easily circling her waist. She really didn't weigh as much as she looked, especially with the loss of about fifty to seventy pounds in weights. So she figured June could handle her pretty easily. Word choice? Now that her adrenaline was rushing from the Battle Royale they had successfully survived, she was feeling awful playful. She bent her head as if to kiss June's cheek, but instead, a nip was given to the curve of her ear.
"Told you we could handle it."

"We stayed out of trouble, that's why." Raion stated bluntly, a 'hmph' to her gestures. "But whatever, I accept our victory. Now, we can go to the dance right away, or we can get some time to ourselves elsewhere."
"I think Zeph and I have some talking to do." June offered. "we'll meet you there, alright?"
"works for me." Raion departed, a lazy wave behind her without looking as her goodbye.
June took the chance to immediately throw off her armor and sigh happily. Finally, that was off.
"God, but that's warm under there after a whole day!"

"See ya." Zeph called with a wave of her own after she settled once more on her own two feet. She tossed her mane of hair over her shoulder and went about removing the two weighs she had put on earlier. After setting them beside she started braiding her hair while June removed the rest of her armor.
"I bet. You'd think they would hold this in the fall instead of summer. You had to be dying in all that."
Now that her hair was out of the way her hands were idol and she was a bit nervous about this talk.. So she slid her hands in her pockets to keep from fiddling with things.

"It's nothing. Just an annoyance." June sighed. "No, I just really wanted to get this out there before anything else happens."
It took her some effort, but she managed to summon the confidence to embrace the girl and talk about this.
" I told you about how I've lost someone to death already. And now you know the horrible things between Arceia and I. Both of those people, I can trace back one thing I always failed them on." she hugged tighter. "I was moving too fast. It had been the same night I met Arceia that we sealed our feelings. That very same night. I guess what I'm getting at is, I know I've screwed up in the past."
It took significantly more effort to release the girl and make eye contact to show how serious she was right now.
"That's why I've been so hesitant. So lacking. I know that my mistakes were in my speed, and we've been together a total of twelve hours and already had our first kiss. I don't want to speed you along and ruin you the way u ruined her."
She put her hands on Zephs shoulders.
"I promise, I have no feelings for her anymore. None beyond regret that it's my fault she's the monster you saw today. And I refuse to turn you into another Arceia. So when I say this, I truly mean it... I'm sorry. So very sorry for the way she's toying us about right now. She wants revenge on me and is using you to get it, but I haven't really done enough to stop her."

Leaning into the hug, she rested her chin on June's shoulder and listened while she spoke. She could tell she was having a hard time saying it all, so she let her vent. Arms soon circled her waist loosely, so that when she pulled back to look her in the eye, they remained. When June finally finished her speech, Zeph smiled lightly and lifted her hands from her girlfriend's waist.
"First.. You say that it was you that made her a monster. But it takes two to tango. She had a part in it too. By inaction, or whatever. It doesn't matter. You need to take that off your shoulders, June."
As if to prove her point, she gently brushed the fabric that covered her shoulder then reached up to cup her cheeks in her palms.
"Second. You need to not worry about turning me into her. She and I are completely different people. If you break my heart. I won't cut you or go crazy. I'll break you in half."
She giggled softly after trying to stay so serious and touched their foreheads together.
"I'm just teasing. You need to relax. Just let things happen the way they will. Stop trying to control everything. That is what gets you into trouble. You're overthinking. If it's too fast for me, I will tell you. I don't want to regret a moment of our relationship. And I'm most certainly not going to let Arceia cause us problems. I know who you have feelings for and I was very petty today. I'm sorry too. I should have more faith in you.."
Zeph drew back to look into the red hues before her.
"It's just.. well, I'm falling hard for you.. and it scared me a little. So I ran. It's what I'm good at. I'm really bad at confrontation."
She looked down and shifted her stance uncomfortably. This was more than she had ever confessed to anyone.
"I didn't want to face you and possibly have you tell me that you did still have feelings for her. I just don't want to lose you. Not when I've barely had the chance to trail my fingers through the current of your soul. Not before I've had the chance to drown in you and know every beat of your heart."
Her cheeks suddenly flared red and she quickly looked away. She had been reading far too many romance novels lately.

June said nothing further, but insisted on a tight hug that she then followed with a gesture to follow her. She would happily lead her girlfriend to the Oh so favored Tavern area where RPG characters apparently loved gathering. At this moment Kendall was drinking alone. Probably just juice. In another corner was the soldier girl and her girlfriend. At the center table there seemed to be some faces June didn't recognize, too.
"We can stop here for food, or we can go get dressed for tonight." she offered, stopping at the door back into the main hall. "Your choice."

Her hand gently slid into June's as she followed after her. A quick glance around didn't show anyone she really needed to speak to, or felt like speaking with, in the tavern.
"I'm not really all that hungry. But if you are, I don't mind sitting with you."

"Just making the offer." June hurries to the door after. "Let's hurry, I need to strip so bad it's painful."
She hurried along to her room, no hesitation in her motions at all, until she swung the door open and almost immediately got rid of all of her external shells. It took her a total of three seconds to remove all of that, and then she just... Flopped onto the bed.
"I'm gonna chill for a bit if that's okay.
June you didn't even close the door. June. What are you doing?
