10th ❄ [video]

[persical]

[the mirror shows the interior of an apartment, slightly darker than usual. Claire has hung curtains over the windows to deter the attention of their unwanted guests. She looks tired, though not about to collapse, at least.]I hope everyone is staying safe...please don't do anything reckless

Relax, Kitty. Even if we get killed, we'll come back to life. But I won't let any monsters get you.

[She points her chin toward the window.] All those idiots are out there trying to fix the problem. One of 'em'll figure it out. [Reno's sitting on the couch, eating some chips, not worried about anything. She's not doing anyone's dirty work--well, not the dirty work of anyone present in the Gardens.]

I'm gonna be pissed if Gabe went back home before me. [But she doesn't look angry. She just yawns.] If they're gone, they're better off.

[persical]

[oh, Reno. Eavesdropping, are you? She turns.]

That's not a reason to get killed in the first place. You shouldn't treat it so lightly.

You're right...I just want confirmation that they're not out there in trouble, I guess. It's more reassuring if there's no news, because that means they most likely did go home.

[she's a little worried about Veigue, too, but she says no more, fiddling with her hair a little.]

[tasercopter]

[Of course! She's a Turk.]

Why not? I keep telling you, this place ain't real. [Being already a bit divorced from reality and the consequences of actions, Reno is even more so here.]

Gabe can handle herself. I don't know about the other one. You'd probably have heard them yelling on the plant if they were getting chomped.

[persical]

It feels real, and that's what matters. I'd rather not try my luck. And I'm surprised you can say such things after what happened to you. [she's tempted to poke Reno in the stomach, but that would just be mean.]

Veigue will be fine. He--she went through a lot to find me.

[fatedmagia]

... Will you be alright, Claire-san?

[persical]

Oh, Madoka! Of course. I've got a protector or two.

[her bemused glance at Reno lounging on the couch says otherwise, though.]

What about you? Are you staying safe?

[fatedmagia]

... Mm. I'll be safe. [ and make sure everyone else is safe... ] It's a little scary, but I think that if everyone takes shelter, we'll all be okay.

[persical]

You're right. If there's nothing for them to chase after, they won't bother.

[cascadetomboy]

[Misty looks a bit tired too. Protecting people with her Pokémon is tough, even when she's got an ally.]

Thanks for the offer, Claire

Are you holding up alright?

[persical]

Yes. A friend of mine from home arrived recently, and the person I live with is here, too. What about you?

[she has strong feelings about children being out on their own.]

[cascadetomboy]

Oh, that's great! I'm really happy for you.

I'm okay. Just taking a break from helping people out.

[persical]

Thank you. [she smiles warmly.]

Ah, but you're so young...you're not fighting, are you?

[gun_cata]

[ Larry's in her own home, with no natural light inside - she's boarded her own home up, and has weapons out and ready. ]

Mostly just hiding myself. I've got weapons and food so I can take care of myself for now, but... I haven't seen either of those two lately, no. They don't seem like the sort to wander off though.

[persical]

Nanako was staying with us, but I haven't seen her since yesterday. I looked through most of the floors of the building, but it's awfully big... [she sighs.]

Just stay safe.

[gun_cata]

Maybe she's home, then.

[ She smiles, attempting to be comforting. ]

I've lasted all this time, a few monsters won't change that.

[persical]

I hope so. She seemed so lost here.

[she shakes her head a bit.]

I'm no fighter, so all I can do is worry about people, really.
