[It's late. It's dark, and Anemone's in her room on her bed hugging her pillow

[HELLO NEIGHBOR. She didn't even need to see the post.]

A-Anemone?!

[pilot_princess]

[CRAIIIIIIIIIIIII--]

[pilot_princess]

[Oh... communicator.]

I don't want to talk!

[latteheart]

[Okay well, it's pretty obvious what happened.]

You don't have to talk. Would you...like to be left alone, or...?

[pursuestruth]

[pilot_princess]

[If she weren't halfway across the room, she'd respond a biiiit better... but she's just gonna cry some.]

[pursuestruth]

[That's all right, Ane-nee. You can cry for him too, since he's in too much shock.]

[pilot_princess]

[Aww, Souji-nii... she'll cry rivers for the both of them.]

[prodigal_axe]

...

Amemone? What the fuck...?

[He's about two seconds from going over there.]

[pilot_princess]

NO! NO TALKING!

[Because she just wants to scream and be hysterical for a little.]

[prodigal_axe]

.........

Look... [Weighing 'protective' with 'just leave her the hell alone.'] You're not hurt or anything like that, right?

[pilot_princess]

[An answer? You want an answer?

YOU GET SCREAMING. And she's not even forming words now, she's just screaming for the sake of screaming.]

[Yeah, if this was bad for the neighbors, imagine her roommates. One of which is practically running toward her room and coming to a skidded halt at the doorway, staring at her in worried shock. Possibly dangerous tiny plants, bleeding countries with a questionable concussion, and now a hysteric not!sister. What next Discedo?]

Anemone?! What's wrong?! Did your plant do something?! Did you get hurt too?! Are you okay?!

[Anemone goes silent the moment she sees him, her face immediately deadpan. Chopper. Oh.

And the screaming starts again as she kicks the bed and screams some more. But all of it's rather high-pitched and obviously hysterical.]

MY SISTER! DISCEDO TOOK MY SISTER! AND I WANTED TO GO PLAY WITH HER AND THEY TOOK HER! I HATE WINTER AND I HATE DISCEDO AND I HATE EVERYTHING!

[So that's what it was. It only figured it would be something like that. Again.

It was times like these that Chopper remembered why he hated the scientists. He didn't know them, but he hated them. They did these things to him, to his friends, to everyone in Discedo and he was sick of it. Anemone was upset. She was angry. She had every right to react this way. They took her family. They took her sister. It wasn't fair. None of it was ever fair. He felt his eyes well up with tears but he fought them back. Crying never brought them back. Yelling out for them never brought them back. Being sad and angry never did anything. He knew this already. Anemone needed to know. But instead all he could say was:]

I'm sorry!

[He didn't feel that he had the strength to tell her. So he stayed quiet, watching her sadly and trying everything to find the right words to say but never finding them, just like he never really could.]

Anemone, I'm sorry! I'm sorry they took your sister! I'm really sorry!

commentlog! -- I sincerely apologize for the tl;dr

[pilot_princess]

[Anemone knew. She knew good and well, for having been there over a year, that crying and screaming and tantrums and fits never brought her friends back, or her family. Or even Dominic. She had seen too many faces leave and come back, some with missing memories, some without, to just know that this was how Discedo was consistent--the pain was always there

[askjdgsgs cranky overworked hungry vampire is cranky overworked and hungry and you are not helping]

Would you just shut up already--

[pissedkitty]

What the hell is going on over there?

[pilot_princess]

[Aaaand she's screaming at you too, because she's across the room and doesn't know who's angry.]

[pissedkitty]

Anemone! Shut the hell up!
