[A young girl in a high school uniform appears on the Plane, clearly distracted. Over one shoulder she has a canvas bag stuffed with groceries. She’s frowning in deep concentration at the list in her hand. It takes her a little while to register the change in scenery, but when she does…]

E-eehhh?! …where am I? This isn’t that funny store.

I-I need to get home! [She’s flailing a bit, mentally if nothing else, though the poor list is getting rather crumpled.] Shigure-san is expecting me to make dinner. The dishes aren’t finished yet. I haven’t even taken out the garbage!

[She squares her shoulders in determination.]

I have to find… have to find the… exit.

[Annnd the determination gives way to utter confusion.]

Th-there’s… no… floor… How am I standing?! Maybe if I just… stay very still…

[beams] Young love is always adorable~ Especially in grade school~

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

EH?! Um! Ah! N-no! I-I-I-I'm in h-h-h-h-highshool b-but no, we are not--S-Sohma-kun is a very good friend!

[this is fun~] Oh pardon, you doesn't look like a high school student~~~ My bad~ [chuckles] If you say so~

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

Ah, y-yes, I know. [Juliet is mean. ;~;] I-it is not bad, he is just a very kind person.

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

[sorry Tohru, but that's how Juliet is, especially when it comes to 'stupid girls'. T_T] He really must be~ Helping you and all, it must be a lot of work~ [smiles]

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

[She'll probably agree with everything he says. -.-']

Y-yes. [Glumly.] H-he's very smart. I told him he does not have to, b-but he says it's okay.

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

[damn Tohru, I always wondered how she could actually survive before the Sohma household--]

[beams~] Ara, a polite person's answer, isn't it~~?

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

[XD]

Eh...? Y-you think it is troublesome?

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

It can be~ [shrugs~] If he really wants to help where is he now~? [looks around, knowing that only a 'few' can enter the place, but oh well~~]

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

H-he was at an after-school meeting when I went sh-shopping. D-d-do you really think...

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

Aah, he seems rather busy~ ['worried']

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

H-he is very responsible. [Worried now for real.] Y-you don't think he's suffering b-because of me, do you?!

FAIL? WHAT FAIL. NEVER.

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

[chuckles] I wouldn't know, I'm not familiar with either of you~~~

NO FAIL. OF COURSE NOT.

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

[Is fretting now.] B-but what if I am?! Th-they have all been so kind, but if I'm just a burden--I-I do not know what to do...

G-GOOD. >>;;

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

[crouches down slightly to look at her] Ara, are you okay, little girl~? I never really said you're a burden who just makes their busy life more harder~ or anything~ [smiles]

Re: G-GOOD. >>;;

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

Ah, y-yes, of course, I-I am fine, b-but if I really am being a burden... I-I do not want Sohma-kun to overwork himself!

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

Mmmh, [nods 'concerned'] That's a really nice thing to say~~ Maybe it would be the best to act like that too~

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

Y-you mean move out of Shigure-san's house? [Worry worry worry.] H-he's been terribly kind as well, but if I leave th-then maybe Sohma-kun can focus on himself again...

B-but where would I go? I-I can't ask Uo-chan or Hana-chan, a-and my tent got smashed...

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

So you're living in someone else's house even~? Aah, I see~

--- tent? You were living in a tent? [AMUSED]

[sweetumeboshi.livejournal.com]

...y-yes....
