Huh... my hand is feeling better. I still need to see about a prosthetic for the missing one, though. Using Heaven's Fang with one hand is proving to be far more difficult than I imagined in actual combat. Frustrating, but... heh, I guess this is part of my penance. Ah well...

A lot of new people, eh? That was sudden... the ghosts leave and then we get more residents. I suppose that makes sense, though. Um, HELLO! My name is Tir McDohl, an officer of the police force here, ha ha... I'm not all that great at introductions, but I hope we can all be friends and help work together to make this place generally better!

Hmm... My soul feels somehow less burdened. I don't get it, but... I guess it really is the people you know who make you who you are.

Thanks everyone. For being there for me. I won't wallow in that state again. Not so long as I can help it.

If you wish, Lady Gracia.

Really? I can? I hope I'm not imposing or anything...You might still be resting. I don't want to be trouble.

I'm sure Kazuki wouldn't mind.

Alright then! Where do you two live? I'll be over soon. [She leaps up from where she was sitting down and starts walking.]

You're coming over right now?

Oh, are you busy? Then I'll come over another day, if you'd like.

W-well, Kazuki's out at the moment, is all.

That's fine! I'm coming to see you after all.

Eh heh... Well, if you insist, then.

Where do you live, then? I'll pay you a quick visit now.

I know that building. I think I walk past it every day. I'll be over soon.

[She walks a little faster and practically jogs up the first flight of stairs the moment she sees it. She has never seen him in person before, and Gracia was more than excited to finally meet a friend.]

Let's see...301...303...

You're close now.

[Eventually, she found the door. Gracia knocked thrice and waited for him to answer.]

Come on in! I'd put some tea on, but I'm still a bit handicapped.

It's alright, I don't need you to make anything for me. [Gracia gave him a quick smile and stepped inside the room. Though she was eying his 'handicap' than anything else]

How are you doing, Tir?

-Tir notices of course. Most people tended to stare at where his right hand used to be these days. He'd learned to not let it bother him...-

I just got done with some of my daily exercises, actually. No training, though, until the small wounds on my left hand heal. Kazuki's orders. He's right of course, as I can't afford to lose another, ha ha!

[Gracia smiled a little, but her gaze seemed to stay on his right hand--or lack of thereof. She shook her head slightly and giggled sheepishly.]

I'm sorry, it was rude of me to stare. It's just very frightening that you had to go through losing...Oh, anyway. I brought these for you! [She then produces a few sprigs of herbs from her pocket and gives it to Tir]

They'll help with the healing. And don't even say you won't take it, I'll have none of that. [She feigned a stern face, but proceeded to smile at him once more.]

-Tir takes the sprigs with his still bandaged hand, blinking for a bit. He hadn't been expecting a gift, much less something this practical. How had she found these? And shouldn't she hold onto them for an emergency? Then again, refusing them seemed impossible at this point...-

R-right... Thank you, Lady Gracia. I'll be able to return to work much more quickly this way.

[She nodded and walked around the room, thinking about asking him how he injured himself and lost his hand. Then again, it's pretty rude to ask those things, so Gracia settled on small talk until he told her on his own.]

Are you and Kazuki the only two living here?

So far, at least. Though I sort of miss having Maora and Viki living with us.

-He... probably wouldn't tell her about it. Avoiding the subject was something he'd gotten rather skilled at-

I see--oh! You know her? [Gracia glanced behind her and eventually spun around before continuing.] Viki is Mago's new pal, right? I want to meet her.

I've... known her for some time, actually. She's always sort of looked at me as her protector... not so much anymore, but it's understandable.

-"Because I killed her," his own thoughts finished. Because of that, things would never be the same again no matter what either of them said or did-

Oh? Why not? Does she have a new one or did she want to protect herself now? [By this time, Gracia already helped herself to a seat. Folding her hands neatly on her lap, she smiled afterwards.]

As long as you're still friends, I guess it doesn't matter, right?

Well, she has Mago and...

Yeah... we're still friends...

-He wasn't doing such a good job of hiding how much he missed her, though-
