[The SFC turns on. The vision is blurry as the person who is holding it is evidently trying to figure out how to work it by shaking it around. Once the device stills a floor shot down to a pair of white boots is seen. Then there are some annoyed grunting noises before the SFC is lifted up properly and the face of young Alice comes into view. Though

[... you're too cute, Alice. Red has the urge to pat your head right now.

ANYWAY, DISTRACTION TIME.]

Hey, Alice. How are you?

[pristinestar]

[...that is so cute, Alice. if Red knew, he'd implode happily. for now, though, he's going to be oblivious to her thoughts. he smiled out gently at her question.]

Yeah... He really is.

He's my childhood friend. But he's also my rival...

[busagi]

He? I remind you of a boy!?

...How can he be your friend and your rival at the same time??

[pristinestar]

It's not your physical traits, don't worry. It is... what's in here. [he kept his smile, then knocked on his chest gently]

We're rivals in friendly terms, Alice. All though... he doesn't admit it openly. But I know how he really feels.

[busagi]

[She blinked and glanced down to her chest. That confused her for a bit, but she eventually grasped what Red had meant. Oh.]

Hnn.. [Alice thought back to Gil and how they would often bicker, yet they were still truly friends. Though, neither of them would admit that openly to each other. Alice understood what Red had meant now perfectly.] Ah, yeah. I know what you mean. There is someone I know who is kind of like that back home, too.

[pristinestar]

That's nice... Friends are precious people, after all.

[busagi]

[Alice remained silent for a bit. She repeated Red's words in her head and thought back to the people she and Oz had left behind when they came here. That's right. My precious friends.]

...I suppose you have lots of friends, huh?

[pristinestar]

Yeah...

[he let out the faintest laugh]

When I first arrived here, I didn't know what to do with myself. It was difficult. But everyone's been so nice to me... I managed to survive.

[busagi]

I know... how that feels. [Though she wasn't speaking of her experience arriving in Vatheon, Alice knew how it felt to be alone without anyone there for you. She knew it far too well. All that time she spent by herself floating in the Abyss was so dark and cold. Alice hated feeling alone, more than anything.]

[pristinestar]

Alice...

[from how she looked right now, he could tell that she had a painful experience. most likely more painful than his own, since he really didn't have that much of a bad experience...]

Don't worry. I'm a friend of yours now, too.

[busagi]

[Alice blushed and looked back to the camera. That simple phrase was all that was needed to pluck her from her sorrowful memories and into the sweetened present. Friends are always welcome! Especially ones that brought her food, as Red had.]

Really?!? Friends!? We're friends???

[pristinestar]

What? You didn't consider me as one? [he leaned a little closer to the SFC, keeping an honest smile. he's teasing again. but he meant what he said just now.]

[busagi]

[asdfghnjmsdfghj she gets way too flustered over this situation.]

W-Well... no-- I mean. Th-Thats not what I meant-- I just...and you--... So, we're friends now, right!?

[pristinestar]

Of course.
