WHO: Kai, Yoshi.
WHAT: EMERGENCY BONDING, er, sewing lesson and couch appreciation.
WHERE: Butterfly Room.
WHEN: Post-Masamidungeon
WHY: NEED S-LINKS UP.

[Kai is sprawled out on the sweet couch, lying propped up on his back, sewing bag by his feet. He's working on a cross-stitch pattern, but doesn't seem to be paying attention to what he's doing.]

Ow.

[He pricked himself. Again. Sucking the end of his thumb, he doesn't hear the door opening...]

[She relaxes a little, reassured by hearing a when instead of an if. As grim as the outlook is, at least it's something that she can be certain of after a year full of uncertainties.]

"Hard to say. Scary, I guess, but the others have had lots of practice by now. It's not like they won't come for us in time."

[Probably, but she leaves that part out.]

"Having everything put on display seems like it'll be the hard part. For me, anyway."

[The when has given Kai no peace, as his expression clearly shows. Resignation, panic, and fear all flicker across it for a moment, before he manages to make his face impassive.]

"...In time."

[He doesn't voice the what if in his head, but it sits in his throat, potent and tasting like death.]

"I don't...really feel the same. I don't have anything to hide." [He thinks, anyway.] "Heh, if anything I'm hoping my design will be pretty. We've had some crazy ones so far? Were they all that intricate?"

[There's a strained smile forced onto his face. It doesn't suit him.]

"Hey, I'm not hiding." [Yoshimi snaps at the implication, more than little defensive, then reels herself back in.] "...I just don't want everyone to see me turned inside-out. It's different."

[Denial party, up in here.]

"Sonozaki-san's was the plainest one so far, and even that had... you know, the garden and everything."

[It seems easier for everyone involved if she leaves out Shingo's Paradise, so she does. She's more concerned with how to reassure Kai, anyway, and she spends a few seconds twiddling her thumbs - well, playing with her braids, but the effect is the same - before coming to a decision.]

"Um... if you are scared, that's okay. I know it's hard to be caught up in all this."

[Kai doesn't retort, but he was thinking about it. Oh, Yoshimi.]

"Huh. That's...comforting." [He's heard enough about the others to know what a dismal comparison that really is. But still, the "smile" doesn't go away.]

"I'm not scared. Just preparing myself. It's hard, but I'll l-live." [The stutter falls out by surprise, and it seems to shock Kai out of his creepy faux-happy act. His eyes widen, face flashing with a brief disturbed expression, before he quickly turns away, grabs his back, and all but jumps off of the couch.]

"I'm sorry, I just remembered I have something to do."

[He can't leave fast enough.]

	"Good luck with that, then." [Yoshimi just purses her lips and watches him go, more bothered by the wasted time than the unconvincing excuse.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
