✿ Ninth Bud [strange scribbles/voice]

[With a frustrated sigh, Kaori abandons the poor attempt at communication by scratching the surface of the pen across the whole page, eventually ripping it out. It was stupid to think that just because she was able to write perfectly fine a week ago, she would be able to for a while now that she was back to normal. Things didn't work that way.

So much for trying to be anonymous about this and avoiding talking to people more than she has to, but she still wanted answers to her question anyway. Pausing for a deep breath, she dives right in.]

Is anyone out there lucky enough to have their brother or sister here?

.....He's that powerful.....?

[His worry increases, and Kaori can probably feel it. How was he going to keep her safe?]

I don't know, Vash never said exactly... [That's one of the things she should ask him sometime, when they see each other again. And whether it was really okay to be telling others about this.]

... I think Vash gets scared of him sometimes.

The house I live in is filled with people and pokemon. A large number of people would make it difficult for him to take you unaware, would it not? [can you tell how concerned he is? Because right now Frey's in military mode and very much so determined.]

I... I guess...? [It may prove to be a false sense of security in the end, but that night she had been out because she didn't want to feel all alone in her room, and for weeks afterward she had to endure night after night of darkness and loneliness, jumping at the smallest sound and avoiding others because of it.]

Do... do you think it'll be better?

.....You won't be alone. You'll be surrounded by people. It should be..... [Honestly? He wasn't sure. This legato could be more daring then he thought, or more powerful.

But it was the best he could do right now, until he could figure out a more concrete solution.]

... You'll be there? [If Frey is there with her... maybe she can deal with it, all those strangers in that house who are of the same species to those responsible for ruining her life.]

[Forwarddating to the 14thish]

[falenandawn]

Of course. I live there too, you know.

[Forwarddating to the 14thish]

[seiriald]

... So I won't feel lonely. [Because her big brother would be there, right? That thought alone is enough to elicit a small smile.]

[Forwarddating to the 14thish]

[falenandawn]

[He smiles back.] So.... is that a yes?

... I guess so? [There's definitely some uncertainty there, some nervousness and maybe even a little fear, but she'd rather deal with the people who live there for now than face the nightmare she will undoubtedly have tonight all by herself.]
