[ Nanako's sprawled on her stomach on her bed when the video starts, feet kicking behind her in the air absently, a look of concentration on her face. ]

Is there a difference between wishes and prayers? If a god makes a wish here... does someone hear it somewhere and make it happen?

Good morning, Nanako. If you think you might need help, then that's what friends are for, aren't they?

[welcome_home]

Yeah, but. I'm not sure it's something anyone here can do...

[reformedsinner]

Hmm... so if you're not sure you can do it on your own, and you're not sure anyone else here can make it happen, either, it may be a little more like a hope than anything else -- mightn't it?

[welcome_home]

Ummm.... Maybe? Isn't that what wishes are, too?

[reformedsinner]

I'd say that a wish is something that you want to make come true, a prayer is something that you want someone else to make happen, and a hope is something that you'd like to come true.

Of course, that's just my definition.

[welcome_home]

Mmmm. I guess that makes sense. What if you don't know which it is, though?

[reformedsinner]

Then you should do everything you can to make it come true, ask for help if you need help, and keep hoping regardless.

[ She pauses to think that over a moment before smiling. Even if he can't see it, it's probably audible in her voice. ]

Okay! I will! Thanks, Hakkai!

[reformedsinner]

You're welcome.
