✿ Seventh Bud [action]

[seiriald]

[It's the first time Kaori has come out in the village on her own since the incident with Shizuo, where she'd come out completely soaked and with a cold to accompany the illness she already had. While she may be recovered now, the somber expression on her face as she makes her way to the plaza says something else. It didn't matter that it was the dead of night and hardly anyone was out, she didn't want to go back to sleep.

One nightmare of her past was enough to deal with.

The memory of the pain and fear, the desperation she felt was still vivid to her, and made her want to seek out a certain man... An ally who would understand what it felt like to despise Humans so. But... she hadn't heard from him for so long, it made her worried. Had something happened? It's what's leading her to take a seat in the plaza, journal clutched tightly in her hands as she shivers in her pajamas, allowing the chill of night to wake her further. This was the spot where she met him face-to-face... Maybe he would show up again if she waited long enough. Maybe. Or had Humans taken him away, too...? It almost makes her want to cry...]

Knives...

....Not L- this person. She managed to survive by a miracle. [She would have died because of him... if the rune hadn't reacted. He was completely useless then.] It was my fault.

[seiriald]

That's good... that she's okay... [Talk about guilt, Frey. It's almost overwhelming, but instead of pulling away she snuggles closer.]

... My last mother and previous father died because of me...

[falenandawn]

[Thinking she's cold, he'll let her.] Your parents.......?

[seiriald]

Four of five of them, to be honest. I don't know how exactly my birth parents died, though.

[falenandawn]

Five.......? [a stock of sadness for her. He knows what it's like to lose parents... but 5 of them? That's.....]

[seiriald]

I've had five parents...? [Really, she thinks she's lucky she managed to find five people who are willing to take care of her as their daughter.]

But most of my siblings don't even remember their birth parents...

[falenandawn]

So they adopted you all?

[seiriald]

All...? [All she had was – ... oh... He must have assumed...?] I only have one biological brother, the rest of my siblings are through our current guardian...

[falenandawn]

Oh. [He figured it might be such a situation, actually.]

[seiriald]

... You should go back home, Freyjadour. [She honestly didn't feel comfortable around him right now, despite trying to push back her prejudices.]
