Just finally finished her icons.

Um...


Thank you... mun... I think they're very... pretty. These pictures of me. I'm glad that you could do something like that... for me...

I-it's okay if your voice for me isn't perfect right now... We can take it slow...

... As a team.

it's a regular horrific burn scar party up in here

[the_burnt_one]

You were burned as well...[Her voice is rather harsh for being even slightly younger than Hanako. The fire damaged her vocal cords too.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

-Not a great way to start off the conversation. The girl visibly tenses, looking like a deer in headlights.-

[the_burnt_one]

[She recognizes that look. She's given it a few times.] I'm sorry. That was rude. [Or whatever iron age equivalent word you want to substitute. 'Uncouth'?] I will leave you if you wish.

[ivegottogodosomething]

-It takes her a moment, but eventually the girl shakes her head. While she never made eye contact, the few glances she made at the other indicated that she understood what it was they shared.-

[the_burnt_one]

I am Therru. Are you a friend of Emi? [Same uniform. She hasn't added up Yamaku's nature yet though.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

I... know her.

[the_burnt_one]

You are from the same...universe, then. [The word slips out a little strange. She's only now learning about the idea of multiple worlds. Coming from the Gontish countryside, it makes her head spin.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

-Hanako simply nods.-

[the_burnt_one]

Emi says you like libraries. What are you reading right now?

[ivegottogodosomething]

...

Records of Lodoss War.

[the_burnt_one]

I'm in the middle of Perdido Street Station. [Therru has no experience of manga so she assumes it's some kind of war story, cocks her head at it curiously.] A war story?

it's a novel, actually. the manga and anime came second, yo

[ivegottogodosomething]

-She nodded, but then shook her head slightly.- It's a fantasy novel... The war is more a backdrop... It's about a young knight. And an elf girl.
