Very good. Let me know the moment anything changes. I'll see if I can discuss things with Henry - his dark magic and curses are different from my magic. It's no guarantee, mind you, but we must exhaust all options.
I'm fine! [Izuku snaps back to attention, looking thoroughly embarrassed at having reacted like that. His face is still a bit pink, though, so he avoids looking at Maribelle for the moment. Wow, the floor is so fascinating.]
U-um, I think you're right about checking any other options we have. You don't mind talking to Henry?
I don't think it's unearned, Maribelle-san. Even if the healing didn't work like we'd hoped, you tired yourself out trying. That's plenty enough to be grateful for. Right, Arisato-kun?

She takes another sip, nodding to Minato.]

[She goes to address Izuku, and... uh.]
... Are you all right?

I really appreciate it, Maribelle-san. You've been a huge help today.
[Even if the magic didn't work, her go getter attitude and ideas for where to go from here gives him hope.]

Henry is my ally, oddities or not. If I can't talk to the only other person from my realm, then I'd be in a lot of trouble.
[But it's said in a calm, dismissive way, of course she can talk to him, silly billy.]
... But I won't take gratitude I haven't earned.

You've helped us narrow it down, too. If some sort of magic works... we need to figure out what kind it is.
So really, you've helped a lot, Maribelle-san.

[But she says it with a smile.]
I guess if you're going to insist on thanking me, it'd be rude not to allow it. Very well, I accept your gratitude.
no subject
We do insist. Thanks for stopping by on such short notice.

I'll keep you posted on Vriska-chan's condition, too. If something changes... it seems only fair.
