[Video] Thank you

[pure_radiantics]

From: Kairi
Date: August 13th

[Kairi has a blanket around her shoulders with stars on it and in her hand is a note. Slowly, she puts the note down and pulls the blanket up a little more with one hand.]

Thank you - to the people who've come by Hajime's temple to see me. That's where I've decided to... go, I guess is the best way to say it.

[Her smile tilts up a little.]

It just seems so sad... that I started to remember more about them now that they're gone. More about them and where they hopefully went home to.

'There are many worlds, but they share the same sky' - that was part of the note. The... one I can't seem to stop reading.

[Then she lowers her head.]

I've responded so many times when shinki talked about losing their gods... I never thought...

[She rubs her nose a little and sniffs, then lifts her head back up again.]

But Hajime's a great friend and I'm glad she's my goddess now. I'm glad we were friends first. It... helps.

[[OOC: Feel free to handwave your character having stopped by to see Kairi either at Forrest's temple or Hajime's. Sora & Roxas disappeared on July 30th in-game, so it's been 2 weeks. She was at Forrest's for one week and Hajime's the second week.]]

[What's up, it's been a while, hasn't it?]

Re: text

[pure_radiantics]

Better, thank you. How about you?

[battered]

ok i guesss? its weird notseeing you around a lot u know!

[pure_radiantics]

Well... in the mornings I jog with Hajime. You could join us?

[smilingbullet]

[ Well, with D2 being one of Forrest's shinki since some time back... ]

It's good, that you seem like you're going to be a fit with Hajime. But if you need help with anything you tell me, okay?

[pure_radiantics]

[She nods.]

I promise. Right now I'm just trying to remember all of the things I collected from my friends-

[That she was keeping at Roxas's temple in her room.]

And making sure I still have all of them - at least if there's one missing, that maybe I could write it down or try to replace it somehow.

[smilingbullet]

Is there a lot of things you haven’t found yet?

[ It would suck if important things disappeared. ]

If you need any help with that, I don’t mind helping out.

The same sky? So they do.

I'm glad you've found a new goddess. Hajime should be well-suited to you.

[Two painfully optimistic young women in one temple. Well. At least they should be good friends.]

Please let me know if you need anything.

Re: text, from: Li Tieguai

[pure_radiantics]

I should come back to school soon. I think that would help a lot.

[A bit of normaly.]

[reformedsinner]

You'd be welcome, of course.

I won't even mark your work late.

[lostinshadows]

...Good to know you're doing alright, and relieving to know that Hajime is your goddess now.

Re: Voice

[pure_radiantics]

Thank you. How well do you know her, Lavi?

[lostinshadows]

Well enough, but I do trust her.

[birdstheword]

Those are good words and I believe them too! The sky is super big and you never know who is looking at the other side of maybe the same star you are! Besides, they're in your heart so they're always here in some ways.

[Hajime smiles. It won't be easy but Kairi is strong. She believes in her]

While I'm out and about do you want me to pick up anything? Maybe something sugary sweet and tasty?

[pure_radiantics]

Mmm... pineapple, please. And a mango. I really like those kinds of fruits. Thank you, Hajime.

[Hajime is so thoughtful. It's the kind of thing Kairi's done for other people before, which is one of the reasons she appreciates it so much now.]

I think I'll always enjoy island fruits now because of Sora's temple... and fresh vegetables thanks to Roxas.

[birdstheword]

Got it! Consider it done and done! I'll have those at the temple for you soon then. Ah, maybe we can make something tasty together sometime.

[Idea!]

I donno how well fruits would grow but we could use the back of the temple for a bit of gardening. Maybe you have a green thumb we donno about yet, Kairi!

[welcome_home]

Kairi!

[ Nanako replies to this with a worried expression. ]

I'm glad you're okay, I was worried. And I'm glad you found a new home.

[ ....A pause, before she adds, ] I miss them, too.

Re: [ Video ]

[pure_radiantics]

[It doesn't feel like home quite yet, but she doesn't want to tell Nanako that.]

I'm getting better. Thank you, Nanako. I'm sure I'll always miss them. I just have to spend more time with the friends I have.

[welcome_home]

It's okay to miss them. They were important. They are important. But you're still not all alone, you have friends here who think you're important too.

[kokuyoyo]

[The reason this is happening over text is because Chikusa had "emotionally dealing with other people" as his dump stat from birth, apparently, so he really has no idea what to do about this.]

[But he?? likes Kairi???? Or doesn't hate her?]

[He is more invested in this than he would be with another person. There we go.]

Have you been eating?

[Nailed it.]

I laughed so hard; text

[pure_radiantics]

[She smiles brightly because she gleans a little of that, knowing Chikusa like she does. He of course was not one of the people to come visit her, but his reaching out even over text is very appreciated.]

Yes, I've been eating. Thank you.

he is doing his best

[kokuyoyo]

What have you been eating?

[thirdbeauty]

Oh, you've been staying with Hajime-chan? That's good! I was starting to get a little worried.

[Roxas was Natsuru's friend too, and she knew how important he and Sora were to Kairi. She'd even visted at Forrest's temple when it first happened, offering some friendly company and as many hugs as Kairi needed. She'd just lost track of where Kairi had gone to stay after that, in the shuffle of other things going on in her life. Or afterlife.]

Have you been feeling any better? Having a new god and a place to live helped, for me.

Re: text

[pure_radiantics]

Thank you for checking in on me, Natsuru. It's a little quieter than I'm used to, but I think it'll be okay. Hajime is a great friend.

I don't think you told me that you lost your god before Maria. I can understand now why it's not exactly the first thing you volunteer when meeting new friends.

[thirdbeauty]

Yeah. It was kind of scary, suddenly having no god or temple anymore. I didn't know what to do at first, and I worried that my new god would be someone who only sees us as tools.

If you're with Hajime-chan, though, you'll definitely be fine! I don't think there's a lot of gods like that, anyway.
