#<- ig? it does fit in a way...? I'm not toosure tbh

Thinking about Queen Melody giving Peach some advice for working towards fixing her relationships, or just Melody helping to push Peach in the right direction regardless. She doesn't know the full story, and she doubts she will, but she can see the consequences of Peach's past actions.

She'll always remind Peach that she can't undo the past. That she can't fix what's been done, even if one was to use time travel. It'll just open up all other holes and the sort. But that doesn't mean Peach can't start fixing things now.

"It'll take time," Melody will tell her. "And there will be people who may never forgive you." Melody'll spare a glance towards Saiko or Mario if they're around. But that doesn't mean Peach can't fix things. But she'll have to accept that some relationships may never be repaired.

And if Peach expresses doubt, Melody will remind her that the queen has seen a lot. Maybe not as much as Peach herself, but she's seen relationships damaged, sometimes even beyond repair. She's speaking from experience, both personal and from witnessing.

Melody will do her best to help Peach stay on the right path. But she'll always remind the princess: "I'll help you, but the decisions you make must be your own. In the end, it won't be me repairing the damage, but you. The repair is up to you, and you best not falter unless you'd like the foundation to shatter beneath you."

Idk,, just thinking about Melody being a mentor/guiding/motherly figure to those who need it :)
