[Shiki's currently busy moving things around in her shop, rearranging new displays on either side of the door. These displays? Well, they're hats, specifically ones that Molly made before she left and Shiki herself is wearing a new hat instead of her usual one.]...I always knew that girl was smarter than most. Hope she made it back okay

[Minato! Shiki's just doing a bit more of a clean-up, so come on in.] Hey.

[Shiki's going to ignore the issue for now and go about her business. This is totally normal, right?] How are you?

[Well, it's slightly Shiki-approved. This might be a good or a bad sign.] Decent enough. [Cleaning, rearranging...] We're down another employee.

[Man, Shiki just likes boys. And the occasional girl :|]

Right. Did you meet her when she was around?

[Action]

[so_shik]

She was a good kid. I liked her.

[Minato, you're a good friend, seriously.] You know I could never say no to your help. Would you mind unpacking that last box by the door? It's the only one I didn't get around to unloading yet.

Thanks a lot. [She's just going to continue cleaning and sorting while he does that. She's tempted to say more about Molly, but first, a distraction.] Are the birds still being noisy in the house?

You're handling it a lot better than I would be. I think it'd drive me crazy. Then again, I think you're a lot more patient than I am anyway.
