[Just one, short, terse question:]

What's so great about love anyway?

[Action; Elementary School]

[There is a little girl in a floofy pink dress picking at her lunch and looking generally discontent. Approach?]

phone; now that song is in my head ffffuuuuuu

[lunardialled]

Ojou-sama...

phone;

[redthenightless]

Yes?

[FEEL FREE TO ANSWER HER QUESTION, SAKUYA]

[lunardialled]

...is it me you're upset about or is it about Patchouli-sama?

Regardless, it's...it's a special feeling. Like a bit of warmth deep inside, that's like nothing I've ever felt before. It's hard to describe, but...it's a very special feeling.

[redthenightless]

I'm not upset. [SHE SO UPSET]

Hmph... how vague.

[lunardialled]

...you sound upset.

[SHE IS.]

It's a hard thing to put into words. But...it's a very special thing. It's different from familial love - of course, I love you and everyone else from the Mansion; I consider you all family. But it's different than what I feel for Blue.

[redthenightless]

I said, I'm not upset.

Mm. [She's glad she doesn't have to clear between that kind of the love and the kind she's complaining about] What makes that so much better? So different?

[lunardialled]

Okay...

[She doesn't believe that for a minute.]

It's not that one is better than the other. They're just different. Haven't you ever had the kind of feeling towards someone that has your stomach in butterflies, their attention making you really happy, the way that they smile makes you feel all warm and tingly inside?

[redthenightless]

No, not really.

[If she ever did, it was looong ago and she's since pushed it from her mind.]

[lunardialled]

I'm a bit surprised, to be honest...I would have thought you would have a legion of suitors. At least one of them would have caught your eye, I'd think...

[redthenightless]

Sakuya, a vampire with a reputation for staining her dress scarlet with blood and in person resembles a young child is hardly the kind that attracts suitors. Nor did I encourage it.

Far more approached me the way you did than with any romantic intent in mind.
