Thirty-sixth snapshot [Accidental Video]

[Maes' back is to the PCD as he kneels on the ground, carefully putting children's books away on a small shelf. A rather large stack of books rests in the crook of one elbow. He's singing very quietly, a lullabye. The top shelf is only half-full and the books keep trying to tip. Maes has nearly finished filling it when he puts several in too

Maes-san?

OOC: I'm assuming this is in the morning after the event? If it is, would it be alright if Sakura is still there to see this?

[brig_gen_maes]

Miss Sakura. You're free to go home; the event is over.

[[ooc: It is. She can be, but she's younger, so he's not that likely to open up.]]

[hits_then_heals]

Before I left...I wanted to thank you, in person, for taking me in. It's been a rough few days.

OOC: That's completely fine! But it won't stop her from at least trying.

[brig_gen_maes]

Not at all, Miss Sakura. You're welcome.

[He gives her the best smile he can muster.]

Better that you're safe here than not safe, right?

[hits_then_heals]

[She can tell the smile is a bit strained, but she smiles back regardless.]

Yes, and you did a great job at keeping us safe.

And if you ever need anything, please don't hesitate to ask, Maes-san. I'd be more than happy to help.

[brig_gen_maes]

I'm glad.

[He nods.]

Thank you, Miss Sakura. I'll remember that.
