[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

Not that we haven't all changed a little bit. Somehow, I don't think you mind most of it, though. [She sighs.] Not with what's at stake these days.
What are you going to do? About... this whole mess?

Though, the mess? I need to talk to Mad before it degrades even more. Have her understand that we're not going after her... and that we're all here to help her. Better said than done, but...

You're missing something important here. Mad doesn't want our help. She wants the truth. Everything will follow from that. If we get proof that this wasn't our fault, she should almost immediately warm up to us at least a little. That's my theory, at least.
...waaaay too much guesswork in here, though, when all our lives - and hers - are at stake.

We've got to be careful. We can't just ride in and fix things. We... all we can do is be there for her, and let her take this at her own pace. We'll help as much as we can, but...

You're right. We're not perfect... I'm not perfect. But... we just do the best we can. [A big smile forms on her face, letting Sora know she understands.]

I heard a saying a while back... "Two in harmony surpass one in perfection." I'd bet three's even better than two. Together, we can do anything we set our minds to.

"Two in harmony surpass one in perfection"... yes, I think so, too. [There's a small giggle leaving her lips.] ...it makes me glad I have you and Eri around. I don't think I would of handle things if you two weren't...

I owe a lot to the Professor for giving me hope and a new start, but I think it was you that gave me direction. Even back when I barely knew you, six months ago, I just couldn't leave things alone. [She blushes a little.] Who would have thought it'd end up like this?

[She blushes a bit.] ...and I wouldn't want to change that in any way.

[She sighs after a moment.] In any event, I've done a very good job of distracting us from the problem at hand.

I think we needed it, though. Too much stress isn't good for any of us.
