ℑ seventh contract

[onlythesong]

[call to Otome (including Shizuru lol)]

[It's funny, isn't it, how easily a person can loose sight of their goals in this place. She's grown complacent. If Mimi could see her now, she'd be full of contempt for the complacency Mashiro has fallen into. A queen can't allow herself to forget her people

Don't worry, I wasn't planning on telling her. The last thing we need is her getting droned for doing something crazy.

And a conference sounds like an excellent idea. I'll be there.

[onlythesong]

Good, you agree. That would just be one more needless worry.

I'll see you then.

[crystalrazing]

At least she'd mean well. We need that kind of enthusiasm if we want to keep working on a way out of here.

[And she mutters, as if to herself.] Better make sure Shizuru doesn't notice me leaving...

oh my god they have almost identical expressions in those icons

[onlythesong]

That's one way to look at it.

...Do you not want Meister Viola to know?

[There's a pause before Natsuki speaks again.] To be honest, I don't. There's something very wrong with her, so I'd like to figure out just what happened to her before we try to include her in any plans.

[A pause on Mashiro's end now, as she thinks about the breathing she'd heard.]

I think she may have heard my call. I ordered the operator to connect me to the Meister Otome; it's likely that they chose include Meister Viola in that.

[CRAAAAAP. Okay, Natsuki is... absolutely NOT going to freak out. Not at all.]

... We should probably keep an eye out, then. Hopefully she won't try to sneak into the house, but still...
