Yeah. I heard from someone else that their powers have some things that don't work entirely right, too. But at least we have 'em.

[ for now. there's another soft burst of light before his persona disappears, and then it's just the two of them at the river again. ]

... you've been through a lot, but you made it. So take whatever time you need to rest up. [ ... ] Thank you for telling me about what happened.

[depressured]

You don't have to thank me. We're friends.

[ She says this so matter-of-factly. But she means it. Friends... talk about these things, when asked.

Probably. ]

[aerodynamic]

[ yay.... he's so pleased with this. ]

Yeah, you're right. [ an easy agreement. ] ... wanna stay out here for a little longer, or head back?

[depressured]

I'll head back. I should probably rest a little more.

[ And not out here or she's going to get scolded. ]

[aerodynamic]

Good plan. [ give him a second to bounce to his feet and extend a hand to help her up. ]

Come on. I'll walk with you.

[depressured]

[ She takes his hand. ]

You don't have to. I know the way.

[aerodynamic]

I know. Maybe I just want to. [ just a light squeeze of her hand. ] I should probably make sure my bed's not covered in cats anyway.

[depressured]

Does that happen a lot? They tend to avoid me.

[ well. They'd avoided her false personality. ]

[aerodynamic]

I think they're doing it just because I keep telling them they can't. [ usual cat behavior. ] Not that I've ever been around a ton of cats before this place, just the ones outside of Yu's house that he kept feeding. Pretty sure they also didn't care though.

[depressured]

Cats do seem to do whatever they want. Maybe you should just ignore them.

[ See what happens then. ]

[aerodynamic]

Can't be any worse than what I'm doing now.

[ he knows not that cats can be little assholes. alas... he will walk her back to her room at least. ]
