ACTION [morning of 3-14] (left in Lien's mailbox)overcomplexMarch 14 2011, 21:09:50 UTC
[left inside Lien's mailbox, there is a small black box, tied up with red string, not unlike how bakeries wrap up their goods. only, thing string is thinner, and more delicate (it still does it's job and keeps the contents of the box safe). should she open it, inside she'll find a pretty lavender hair ribbon (...ignore the watermark 8( ).
underneath the ribbon is a small square of cardstock, and written in long slanted letters reads:]

This is Doctor Kiriko. Thank you for the update you left me, Lien. I am relieved to know you have finished your job for the month and that you are unharmed.
I apologize for my rude behaviour, as well. My health is not at its best and this month has been very hard on me. It was not my intention to take my frustration out on you. I am also sorry if I have been neglectful of your feelings as of late.
I sincerely hope you find a safer place to land in your new home. Please, take care of yourself. If there is any medical assistance or otherwise you need in the near future, do not hesitate to contact me.

[A bouquet of flowers and a card addressed to "Lien Kha" have been delivered to the front door. Inside, the card simply reads, "Happy Birthday." There's no signature; apparently the sender wished to remain anonymous.]

[Lien spent half of her eighteenth birthday resting from the ordeals of the past weekend. Her hair was still long thanks to the perfume effects, and it sprawled across her bed as she lay still, trying to make sense of everything that had happened.
When she finally woke up, she opened the front door not expecting anything until she saw the card and bouquet. No signature on the card, but...
She only told a few people about her birthday.
She knew there was only one person who could have sent it anonymously, but all the same as she touched the card and traced the handwriting with her finger just to make sure who it was with her psychometry. She knew. The flowers were placed carefully inside a vase with some fresh water. But it was the anonymous card she clung to and it was crushed without meaning to; not because of malice, but because she couldn't even make sense of her own feelings anymore. She was supposed to be calm, sort out her thoughts, examine what was given to her and the intention behind it like a good psychic should. Don't be

Lien opens the box and holds her gift in her hands while reading the very short message. She doesn't mutter or attempt to say anything witty aloud.]
