[Yun is just standing around in her room; and she speaks, though this softly:]
Tamaki, Allen, Lenalee, Iroh, and anybody else who may care about me:
[She pauses and amends this in her head. She is too used to doing this. It is impossible to actually go back, redact, and add...but she never seems to stop trying, within herself.]
I would like to know--

I...
[She looks around. She fears for her safety.]
Let me try...
[She toggles the filter. Er...she thinks. So this is filtered. Er...]
Now how do I fix this problem I have created?!

[Allen looks a bit sympathetically weary as yes, judging from some of the other people contacting her, it was a bit of a problem. Sadly. When he had to actually consider it. Not badly so, not dangerous in his mind, but unpleasant certainly.]
I know. I'm sorry. I'm still getting used to everything myself. [There really was a list a mile long of things one should know about upon arriving.]
It'll be alright. [A nod, reassuring smile. Somehow.] I don't think it's that bad a thing... I mean-
[Rubbing at his head for a moment with a bit of pensive expression.]
I don't think you need to be scared.
[But he is stopping to think that well, she did just announce where she was, didn't she, and people like Tyki had access... but weren't doing anything, so-
Allen sighs. It was confusing.]
It's not like people are... fighting each other. At least not those of us that were brought here. [As far as he knows.] Just unpleasant sorts.
[Oh. Slight scowl.]
Speaking of. The blonde guy that responded... Don't trust him.

[She's learning. Only...the hard way, sometimes.]

What makes ya think people who reply to this will be 'trustworthy'? What yer gonna get is a buncha people pointin' fingers at their enemies.
It's something ya gotta figure out on yer own, and let me tell ya, yer gonna get backstabbed a few times in the process. 'S just how ya learn.

Don't you think you're being a little rude?
She meant to talk to just a few of us. Not you.

'Sides, she did say 'anyone who might care.' Maybe I care about some poor kid gettin' their ass exploited by someone who sees an opportunity. Don't see you warnin' her of that possibility.

[Right, she had said that. But he won't concede that point.]
And I actually did think to talk to her privately. Of course you wouldn't see. [Idiot.]
If you did care then you could do it in a less insulting way.

Ah, Yun.
[She forces a smile. It looks like Allen already explained filtering, but the rest of her question was not so easy to address.]
As far as people go, in a place like this I'm afraid it's best not to be too trusting. There are too many people here for me to really list who's trustworthy or not, especially considering I don't know many of them.
My best advice would just be to trust your instincts. It won't always work, but it usually will. And if there's anyone in particular that you're unsure about, feel free to contact me.
[A bit of a shrug.]
I'm afraid that's the best I can do.

[She shrinks back nervously, into a little nook of her room.]
Lenalee. I would like you to do me a favour.
Please look into these people's backgrounds for me, or find somebody who can?
...please?

I'm afraid that that's not possible here.
[Really, she's sorry. She wishes that she could make that possible.]
I've heard some bad things about Aizen, I would be careful about him. Apart from that, Deidara is the only person who comes to mind that you should really avoid. Just... if you're scared, try not to talk to a lot of new people at once. You're welcome to come stay with me for a little if you want.
[Er, she hopes. She should probably have asked Allen first before just offering that, but Lenalee doesn't think he'll take issue with it.]

I appreciate it anyway.
[A little more normally:]
All right. No...no, I am fine here. There is nothing wrong with Tamaki and although he is...Tamaki, I do not doubt that he would be willing to protect a person.
[Yun hates herself for being in a position where she needs this kind of protection.]

I think trusting your instincts is really a good way to go. Those people who feel uncomfortable usually are bad. And those who have manners are nice.
[ And he smiles, reassuringly even. Mnn, the irony is so rich. ]

Don't bother her.

[A reassuring smile!] But! On my honor as a king, Miss Yun, I will assist you and keep you safe! So you have nothing to fear, even should there prove to be danger present here!

[See, this enthusiasm is why she still maintains that he really is a pretty good choice of roommate.]
