Cindy still wasn't quite certain just what to make of Eleanor. The sister had her doll, was giving it back, and she seemed genuine. The idea that she could be deceptive had flitted across Cindy's mind...but it was hard to convince herself of. Sisters simply...weren't deceptive.

Nevertheless, Cindy approached the location cautiously. She watched Eleanor for a while before coming up to her. She had been torn, ever since she'd woken up, between whether she wanted to run on the ground or jump like she'd used to. She'd settled, mostly, for running and walking...but she was prepared to flee across walls and roofs if she had to.

Walking up to Eleanor was difficult and she did it slowly. The sister had any number of chances to attack her...but she didn't. When she was finally within ten feet, Cindy stopped and shuffled, almost nervously.

"My daddy?"

Eleanor was careful not to make any sudden movements after she spotted Cindy approaching, she didn't even stand up until the other had stopped. She had the doll hanging loosely from her left hand...a very familiar grip, really. She remembered holding her own doll like this so many years ago...such an odd memory.

"Yes Cindy. He's here." She held it out to the other Big Sister. "Just like I promised. But there's something else I'd like to show you too."

Cindy had reached forward, almost instinctively, to take the doll back but froze when Eleanor kept talking. This wasn't normal, this wasn't giving the doll back. She wanted something else, something she hadn't discussed, and she still had Cindy's daddy.

Behind her helmet, Cindy scowled.

"Give it," Cindy demanded lowly. She'd promised.

Eleanor frowned faintly, but she held out the doll again. She was just worried Cindy was going to take off the moment she had it, and after the time she'd spent fixing up the room that would've been annoying.

"Here. Just...come inside before you leave, okay? Please?" She was trying very hard to sound pleasant and soothing. "I promise you'll like it." Oh god she hoped that was true.
