[Lilo hadn't spoken a word for a week now

[Megamind had been wandering by--carrying a few books, headed to his classroom--avoiding certain people like the plague--when he spots her tiny form on the couch.

Without hesitation, he heads in and over to her. Since she's been quiet, he's...well...]

...Lilo?

[iwannalobster]

[Lilo looks up at Megamind and doesn't even attempt to smile, she frowns and looks back down.]

[codejournalname]

[that--almost physically hurts...he sits next to her, putting his books to the side..]

...how are you feeling. [as if he didn't already know, but he's not going to stop trying to get a few words out of her]

[iwannalobster]

[She shrugs and pulls the blankets around herself more tightly, clutching the picture in her hand desperately]

[wolf_faerie]

[Aisling got her magic back, and she's been wanting some time to herself for a little while, so she's wandering around the buildings and grounds in the form of a wolf, scouting out the place.

When she reaches the common room, she sees Lilo sitting by herself. She vaguely remembers running into her room in a blind panic, so she goes up next to the couch and flops down with a sigh.]

[iwannalobster]

[Lilo sees Aisling curl up next to her and puts out a hand, cautiously rubbing her fur.]

[wolf_faerie]

[Aisling closes her eyes and leans into it. She isn't really used to being petted, but it's still comforting after the things everyone's been put through.]

[iwannalobster]

[She's going to continue her petting... until she decides to lay her head down on top of Aisling, carefully and slowly]

[fearthefool]

...
Say, um...
[what was her name again?]
Lilo- do you remember how to make hot chocolate? I can't.

[iwannalobster]

[Lilo looks up at Clopin for a long moment before shaking her head and idly picking at the corners of her photo]

[fearthefool]

[Clopin is about to ask if she really can't remember something from last month, but decides instead to sneak around the couch and glance at the picture in her hands.]
Who are they?

[iwannalobster]

[She holds up the picture so he can see a younger Lilo with her parents. Nani is also there with her.]

[cowboy_newsie]

[He sits down next to her, staring forward, one knee drawn to his chest. He's smoking, of course, but it's more because he's upset than because he's flaunting the rules.]

One hell of a week, kid, huh?

[iwannalobster]

[She nods a little and leans into him, wrapping her arms around him.]

[cowboy_newsie]

[He shifts, wrapping an arm back around her, his hand stroking her hair.]

Shh . . .

[iwannalobster]

[She squeezes even tighter. She isn't going to cry, she hadn't for a while now.]

[tch_duh]

[Since classes have started again, Jade's been roaming around campus so she can procrastinate on school work. Her current destination? The common room. Though she's never really talked to the little Hawaiian girl currently curled up in the couch, she decides to help cheer her up. Plopping next to her, she tries to strike up some small talk.]

What's up, kid?

[iwannalobster]

[She jumps a bit when Jade approaches, but quickly settles down and manages to shrug a bit at her question.]

[tch_duh]

[Hehe, oops. Jade didn't mean to startle her, though she does that to people quite often...]

Not really sure how I'm supposed to take that. Are you happy, sad, made, "meh", hungry?

[iwannalobster]

[She shrugs again, she didn't even really know what she was feeling.]
