"I don't think anyone's been in here since," Christine supplies quietly. She doesn't want to speak too loud, or touch anything she shouldn't. She's just here for moral support, to carry back things, maybe. Her hands are in her pockets, scarf wrapped around up to just under her mouth. "There's enough buildings here that some of them just get ignored, I suppose, if no one's living there."

"Mn...I suppose you're right," Elraine nods back meekly before making her way to the back door. Pausing with her hand on the knob, she takes a deep breath to calm herself. Her heart is already fluttering with anxiety, but she had to be strong. Always stay so strong...

The door creaks open loudly, reflecting the lack of use as Elraine moves forward with purpose. Lights flickering on, it's almost as if she stepped back into the time when she and Kiri had just left. Everything was untouched with books and fabric spread out over the table, dishes overdue to be washed in the skin, the closet left partially opened, and her plushie and uniform laying on the bed. A small sigh escapes her when she finally moves forward to close and stack the books on the table, not daring to look at her bed yet. "I really should take these back to the library."

Christine stays a few steps behind, hovering in the doorway, but moving with Elraine anyway, wanting to not be too far away. At the mention of the books, she nods. "If you've got a box around, I can pack them up for you."

"There should be some in the closet by the sink. There's some bags in there if that's better..." She trails off as her gaze moves over to the makeshift bed made up of two. Setting down the books, she lets out a small laugh before moving over and picking up her Sister uniform. Elraine doesn't acknowledge the plushie, but her there's a reluctance and acceptance in her expression as she makes her way to the dressing stand.

"Would you mind if I put this on? I'll be quick."
