[Odd and a little unsettling to watch it happen from his point of view. When it's over, she picks up her pillow and the top blanket off her bed and quietly walks to her brother's room.

She doesn't knock. Doesn't greet him in words. She just sends him a guilty look and starts making a nest for herself at the floor by his bed.]

[He watches her come in and sighs.]

Come here, Aya. You don't have to sleep on the floor.

I spent two years on a bed. It's your turn...

[redabyssinian]

If you don't, I'll come down on the floor with you.

[Youji just calls and waits for Aya's--Ran's-- cue. As he appreciated Ran commiserating with him out loud, he figures Ran might like some friendly silence.]

[redabyssinian]

[Ran notices the call and picks up.]

Youji.

[slantedcross]

If Reiji Takatori ever shows up on my Dreamberry, you will be the first person I tell. If you want to kill him again.

[He's joking. Mostly.]

[redabyssinian]

That will be unnecessary but thank you.

[Ken is feeling a lot of things at this moment. The guilty awareness he shouldn't have seen this; sudden and unexpected empathy for him; the sheer shock of finally knowing what Aya's deal is. He thinks he should probably keep his mouth shut and not let on he's seen it, but... well, maybe a wiser man could but Ken can't.]

Aya?

Was that Takatori?

[redabyssinian]

That was him.

[insorrow]

Oh.

[Suddenly Aya's making rather more sense to him than he did five minutes ago.]

Um, are you okay?

[redabyssinian]

I'm alright, Ken. This isn't the first time I've had this dream.
