31st Bloom

[It had been awhile since Hana had been told the news about Mad - that she really was her sister. While it seemed that she took it in stride, there was a bit of her that doubted that Mad WAS her sister. For all she knew, the scientist could have forged it. Mad was friends with Clan Wolf, right? And since she's not too thrilled about the Desus, she

Thinking about things? [There's a Tsukasa, leaning on the door.]

[latelybloomed]

Oh, Tsukasa...! Ah, yeah... I am. I... was told Mad really was my sister, but... I just don't want to believe it.

After being punched in the face by her...

Sounds to me like it's a little contrived. A sister out of nowhere. Seems... off.

[latelybloomed]

It really does. Like something out of a silly soap opera.

[Tsukasa chuckled, moving to take a picture of the view, capturing Hana in the camera lens.]

Sometimes life's a bad soap opera in this place.

[It's only after Tsukasa takes the picture that Hana notices what he's done.]

...it really is, isn't it? But, at the same time, we seem to make the most of it.

Dealing with this positively is something that should be done. No one can dictate your own responses to anything.

You've got friends, don't squander that response.

[latelybloomed]

...you're right. I haven't been thinking straight with everything, really.

[of_10_faces]

Yep.

The way I see it, is so what if she's your sister? She has her own life, her own choices. Give her her own space, but offer the help because so many people have offered you help. Even if she doesn't take it.

[latelybloomed]

Mmm, you're right.

I guess I should get it out of my mind that I can SAVE HER-save her... trying to get back the sister I lost. Or, well... I THINK I lost.

...this is so confusing...

[of_10_faces]

Mmm. I don't think it's really a loss per say. You were too young to remember, right? You don't remember anything from your life with her.

It's not like you have memories of her, buried deep inside right?

[latelybloomed]

Nuh-uh... and like CHYPrE said, if I did, between Second Impact and the Endless attacks, I really would have forgotten most of it anyway.

[of_10_faces]

Then there you go. Keep your own memories together of the current day, and not try to dredge up anything from the past.

[latelybloomed]

Right... I really have been thinking things through too hard, haven't I?

I could have told you that-desu!

[of_10_faces]

Overthinking things won't get you anywhere from what I've learned.

[latelybloomed]

No, no it won't...

I guess that's my big problem, isn't it?
