character is viola from majo no ie / the witch's house!

How horrible you are. How unspeakably cruel.

You would take everything I've worked for... everything I've earned... before I am even given a chance to enjoy it? You would rip me from my home, away from clean sheets and warm food and a father's love, and then you would call me the monster?

...heehee. Maybe you're right.

Put me wherever you want. I can't stop you with this body, can I? So do what you will. But... it doesn't matter where you lock me away. I'll just find a way back. Or maybe I'll make myself a new home. Even if I'm powerless, I'm sure I can handle it...

If it's just for a little while.

"This body"?

[Sabitsuki knows what that means by now.]

What are you?

[afunnystory]

[ there's a flicker of something as the blonde faces sabitsuki - facial expression rapidly changing, irritation and false kindness and wary neutrality - but it settles back into a smile (and not an entirely nice one). ]

I'm a human. Isn't it obvious?

[coveredinrust]

In this place, you could be anything. You could be god for all I know.

Think whatever you want. Right now, I'm a normal human. Isn't that the most important part?

[ she studies the older girl carefully as she speaks. her light hair, her red eyes, her form entirely - the similarities are astounding in a way she's never seen before. she had clothes that might have fit this young woman, once. they could have been sisters in different circumstances, in different worlds...

she smiles, even as the bile rises into her throat. ]

I'm Viola. What's your name?

[ the lie passes through her lips without pause. ]

[coveredinrust]

I don't actually care.

Sabitsuki.

Sabitsuki.

[ what a weird name, she thinks as she continues to smile - pleasantly, this time. whoever this person is, they're obviously not as foolish as viola or her father was. but.... they've stopped prying, so she might as well keep moving on. ]

It's very nice to meet you, even under these circumstances.

Okay.

You can change your body somehow. So, how?
