Sixty Ninth Star

... So he's really gone...

Wait up for me... old friend. It may yet be awhile... before I see you again.

Gracia, it's time we faced the facts. Gremio is gone, and half the apartment is rubble. We need a new place to live. I'd like to stay here in Latimir if at all possible and help Naja. At least... that's what I want to do. You're not under any obligation to stay with me.


... anyone willing to house two homeless young people here in Latimir? I can work for our food and board if neccesary.

... It's fine. He... had a purpose to fulfill back home.

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

We all have our purposes. Still, the bond between comrades is a dear thing. It must be hard... [She supposes, because she doesn't have any real point of comparison. Still, humans clung to one another, right?]

But you are moving somewhere with Gracia?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

For the time being. No sense in staying in a half-wrecked apartment.

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

No, I suppose not. You weren't injured in the incident, I hope? It seems like rather a lot of people died and left their corpses lying around there were quite a few unfortunate accidents...

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

... About that...

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

...

Oh, don't tell me you were? [Aand she sounds more surprised and annoyed than concerned, sob.]

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

It's about you.

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

[Now thoroughly confused.]

Hmm?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

The entry you made during the blizzard.

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

The entry?

...

Oh, I did turn on the communicator, didn't I? I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to recall; after all, I slept through the worst of the blizzard.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

You were covered in blood...

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

Was I? [Sob she doesn't really remember, since it is kind of totally irrelevant to her. It takes a bit of thinking.]

Oh! I do remember now. There were quite a few of those squeaky little flapping creatures in the basement. I rather doubt most of the blood was mine.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Riful... I worry about you.

A lot.

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

[...] [Her eyes narrow a bit at that. Is that so?]

Do you? Goodness, I can't imagine why.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Ever since the incident with that creature...

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

And what about it?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

I just want to be certain you're safe...

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

[And confused again.]

Oh? Well, you needn't worry too much, I don't think. I am as safe as I can be, in a place like Discedo.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

And if those things come back?

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

[She'll see if the next bunch are more amenable to being recruited for her army! 8D]

Oh, I have faith in the people of Discedo! It is really quite impressive, how people are capable of great things when they work together~

Still, all the more reason to get my chip removed, as soon as I can.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

I suppose...

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

Don't think I'm not grateful for your concern, Tir-- I truly am! But I do know how to take care of myself, really~

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Alright... I trust you.

[nomnomguts.livejournal.com]

[She has to swallow her smile before replying.]

Are you afraid that they'll return?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

... I don't want to ever be put in a position like that again. If I ever hurt you...
