[princesspower]

I was just trying to clear up how I felt! I thought you deserved to know!

2/2

[princesspower]

You never acted like you cared after I left, not after that whole thing with the holograms and Light Hope! You acted like you hated me!

[heterochrocatic]

BECAUSE I DID HATE YOU!

[princesspower]

I'm sorry.

I felt like i had to save everything and everyone. I saw how wonderful Etheria was outside of the Fright Zone and I couldn't just leave it. I had to pick that up and I had to be She-Ra because I was the only one who could.

Or I thought I was, anyway.

[ 📞 Voice call from CATRA

Accept Y/N ]

[princesspower]

[ Adora smacks the 'yes' button. ]

Hello?

voice;

[heterochrocatic]

You were the only person I ever cared about and the only person who cared about me! And then you turned around and rejected me! How was I supposed to feel? You were--you were always there and then you weren't and I didn't know what to do.

You were special! And I wasn't.

voice;

[princesspower]

I didn't reject you, Catra.

[ She takes a deep breath. ]

At least... I didn't mean to. I didn't think I was! You were special. You were one of the most important people in the world to me.

[ "Are", she wants to say. ]

voice;

[heterochrocatic]

You always try to take so much on yourself and you shouldn't have to, but you do because you feel like it has to be you. And it's stupid. We could have been happy.

[ Catra feels like she's going to cry again, even though she thought she'd cried all her tears earlier with Saturday. ]

I just wanted my Adora back. And you didn't seem to get it.

[princesspower]

If I don't do it, who will, Catra?

[ That refers to so many things - to being She-Ra, to saving the planet, to protecting Catra when they were younger. If she doesn't do it, no one will. She has to. She has to or people get hurt. ]

I couldn't just go back to pretending the Horde was fine, Catra. You know that. I was wrong to think it was OK in the first place!

[heterochrocatic]

I know you were! I just wish you'd noticed it when it was me getting hurt all the time.

[ Some of the bitterness those words have carried in the past is still there, but mostly they're sad. Quiet. ]

I missed you and I didn't know what to do! I thought you were the person I could lean on and then all of a sudden you were gone!

[princesspower]

I did notice. I noticed all the time.

[ Adora, likewise, sounds sad. ]

And I thought I could protect you. I thought that's what I was doing. I didn't know there was an alternative to the Horde...

[ OK. OK, OK, OK. ]

I'm sorry, Catra. I really am.

[heterochrocatic]

[ The line is silent for a long time. A long time. ]

I'm sorry, too. For everything. I messed up a lot.

[princesspower]

[ Adora is about to hang up, honestly. she half believes that Catra's just left the line up to make her wait. ]

I still meant what I wrote.

[heterochrocatic]

Really?

You, uh? Love me?
