--again? Now? But everyone's all over the place now! And the sky is dropping burning things and the rain burns at the air burns and has powder in it and that burns if you breathe it and gets stuck in your lungs, and--!

-INCOMING FAIRY! LOOK OUT BELOW!-

[u_n_asplode]

[OH LAWD

WHAT'S HITTING ME

WHY IS IT COLD

Flandre practically folds up and flops and flails into a heap on the floor, squawking all the while.]

[baka_jyanai]

-And Cirno rolls around, clutching her poor bumped head.-

[Flandre's wings flail around for a moment before they finally catch some traction on the floor. She begins to stand and begins to grumble and--]

[u_n_asplode]

[--and the growl dies before it even starts.

...was that...really?]

Cirno?

3/3

[u_n_asplode]

[...Cirno wouldn't break. Not like the water things. Cirno wouldn't, Cirno wouldn't--

Flandre rushes over in a bluster of wings and scrambling limbs and grabs the fairy by her shoulders, lifting her up to eye-level to get a better look.]

Cirno?

[baka_jyanai]

H-hi, Flandre... -Sorry for crashing into you.-

[u_n_asplode]

Cirno, Cirno! It is you! You're back!

[And the inspect-fairy maneuver turns into MASSIVE SQUEEZING HUG. Complete with the wings, which curl around Cirno's shoulders protectively and more than a bit possessively. She's TRYING to be gentle, really, but she's also excited.]

[baka_jyanai]

-And a biiiiig hug on Cirno's part as well, more than happy to be reunited with her special person.-

I missed you...

[u_n_asplode]

I missed Cirno so much!

[Nuzzle, nuzzle. NUZZLE NUZZLE.]

Where has Cirno been? Did Cirno go home? What happened?

[baka_jyanai]

Uh huh. I went home. The lake's real quiet...

[u_n_asplode]

[A blink.]

Aren't there other people there?

[baka_jyanai]

There are, but... It's still too quiet... without you...

[u_n_asplode]

...oh.

[She nudges Cirno's face a bit.]

It's lonely here, too. A lot of people have gone away...

[baka_jyanai]

You still have friends... right?

[u_n_asplode]

...Cube is still here. And Ace, and Anemone, and Shinjiro, and...[she rattles off the rest of the names familiar to her--though the list is much, much smaller than it used to be.]
