Catra.

[ There's a long pause. There's her breathing, the slight shift of her weight against something. ]

I don't know if I can be any other way.

[ She doesn't know how. She doesn't know if she can believe in herself like that.

Funny, isn't it? ]

[heterochrocatic]

Please, Adora.

[ Catra sobs the question into the communicator. She wants Adora here next to her more than anything in the world. ]

If not then I'm going with you. I'm not letting you leave me behind ever again. Understand? I'm not--

[ Her voice breaks and she is crying, almost weeping. ]

I'm not going to sit here and tell stories about how brave and noble you were without you. I won't. I can't.

[princesspower]

...okay.

[ Just one word. Quiet and small. ]

I love you, Catra. And I don't want to leave you behind.

[heterochrocatic]

Then please. Stay.

[ Catra won't let herself be left behind. But gods, she just wants Adora to stay. ]

I love you. So please stay.

[princesspower]

I will.

[ Two words. ]

[heterochrocatic]

Come hold me.

[princesspower]

Where are you?

[ Doesn't matter, she's already moving. ]

[heterochrocatic]

My room.

[ She's crying, but it's nice to know that Adora will come to her if she asks. ]

[princesspower]

[ She's there in a matter of minutes, but it feels like way too long. She just comes through the door and where ever Catra is, she wraps her up into a tight hug - and she's crying. She's crying and she doesn't entirely understand why, but it's enough.

Catra is enough. ]
