[Miranda is leaning heavily against a wall, a playing card clutched carefully, tightly in her hand. Her eyes are screwed shut, and occasionally she releases a shivering, shuddering breath to fight back tears.]

You damn... Idiot.

((Drop fallout, expect angst and tears yada yada yada!))

...Whatever is the matter, my dear Miranda? [He pauses by her, leaning a hand on the wall.]

[failingfelicity]

[She inhales sharply, partially out of surprise and partially to try and calm herself.]

I-it's nothing. I'm sorry.

[itisasillyplace]

Oh, you needn't be so reserved with family! You can tell me anything. I'm quite discreet, as you should know. [Except not really.]

[failedfelicity]

[Honestly, this is a Cyril she at least somewhat trusts. And even if he does say something, Tyki's gone. So...]

Someone important to me left.

[patisseriemargo]

[ He was on his way to the library, he could have been there in less than a minute had he not passed Miranda. It would have been easier to continue walking had she not been crying...

Link sighs telling himself that what verbal abuse he was about to take was for the sake of the exorcists... or it had better be. ]

Something appears to be ailing you.

[failingfelicity]

[She stiffens at his voice, immediately trying to hide the fact that she's close to tears.]

I-I'm fine.

[patisseriemargo]

[ Nary a detail escape this man's observational abilities. ]

Based on your appearance and composure alone I'll have to disagree with that statement. If you are feeling down..[ Spirits above this was difficult. ] perhaps it would be best if you spoke to someone about it.

[ Like Allison. Or Allison. And not him. ]

[failingfelicity]

I know that. [Her tone is tense, the words snapped.] I don't need your pity, or advice.

[failingfelicity]

[Miranda shakes her head, finally letting the tears spill out. She doesn't care if Tyki sees her cry.]

N-no one. He- left.

[failedfelicity]

[She only nods, wrapping her arms around the other's neck and burying her face in her shoulder.]

These are both placeholderish, by the way. Sorry!

[bloodycasanova]

My. This isn't a pleasant way to see you at all.

Don't worry about it! <3

[failingfelicity]

[She releases a shuddering breath, eyes still tightly shut.]

I'm fine.

[bloodycasanova]

So you say. I suppose I should just take your word for it, then. [He leans against the wall near her, not walking away.]

[failingfelicity]

[She nods again, slowly opening her eyes before taking his hand and tugging him towards the doorway of her room.]

Let's go somewhere else.
