[Sophie had left the house, needing some fresh air after watching the horrible video of Howl, comforting Tiffany and helping to bury the corpse that had been left in their living room.

Completely bundled up to keep her warm she approaches the park, trying not to cry. Now that she nothing to keep her busy it was hard to dwell on what she had seen that day. She didn't even see Sideswipe there.]

[weaponsparked]

[He jerks his head up, recognizing by now the sudden flood of alien emotion. Doesn't make him feel any less likely to start sobbing, though. When he finally spots Sophie, he can't help but cringe. He should help her. But...]

Sophie?

[eldest_hatter]

Oh! Sideswipe, hello.

[She attempts a smile.]

I didn't think anyone else would be here today.

[weaponsparked]

I... I didn't either.

[When he tries to take a deep breath, it comes through in a sob.]

... Damn. What's... What's wrong?

[likeahex]

[Walking by herself. And thanks to a gift she got back. She's feeling miserable, grief stricken, guilty and pretty much every other horrible emotion you can get from having your worst failure slapped back in your face.]

[weaponsparked]

[Those feelings promptly smack him in the face. You'd think, by now, he'd get used to this. But no. He pops his head up, backing up against the tree out of reflex.

That doesn't help. He watches her, trying to figure out if he... knows her.]

[likeahex]

[She just goes and sits on a bench. She doesn't seem to notice him. She's still quite miserable though.]

[weaponsparked]

[He sits still for some moments longer, watching the stranger. Then, he reaches over, and lobs a snowball toward the vicinity of her feet - just trying to get her attention.]

[1stonthreatdown]

[Seeing someone obviously in distress, Senri will put a steadying hand on the man's shoulder. There's not too much emotion here except vague concern. He's also checking for any obvious injuries.]

[weaponsparked]

[His shoulder twitches at the touch, and for a while, he can only stand there, trying to take shuddering breaths. It's not until the drone passes out of "range" that he appears to recover. Enough to speak, at least.]

... Who are you?

[1stonthreatdown]

[Senri keeps holding him steady for as long as he needs to. The guy doesn't seem injured. Perhaps he's sick? He's a little surprised though. He's not often asked for his name.]

......Senri.

[weaponsparked]

[He steps away, looking the stranger up and down. His head is still reeling from the drone... whatever was happening to it, and the feeling of surprise isn't helping.]

Never seen you before.

[miss_enma_ai]

[Sitting in a tree. You probably can't see her. But you will definitely be able to feel her emotions. They are rage. Pure and utter hatred. She's moved on from being sad to hating the people who put her in that situation. And if there's one thing Ai knows how to do, it's to hate.]

[weaponsparked]

[As soon as he feels that, he jerks upright, and tries to pull himself away from... wherever that is coming from, breathing hard.]

[miss_enma_ai]

[Just hatred and pain and suffering and the feeling of utter loathing. Ai is trying to calm her own emotions down at the moment as she sits in the tree.]

[weaponsparked]

[He tries to catch his breath, those feelings starting to overwhelm him. He just ends up on his knees, trying his best to move away from the unseen source.]
