Who: Misaki and Kanaye
Where: Kanaye's house
What: Speeches.
When: The day after she's rescued.
Why: Kanaye needs to curb the yandere tendencies.

Most of the staff looked at Misaki oddly. It's not like they weren't expecting someone like Misaki to be one of Kanaye's friends. It's just...pink hair is a bit much.

One of the older maids comes up to Misaki. "I take it you are one of Satou-kun's friends? You'll be here to visit him, then. I...must warn you, he hasn't come out of his room since yesterday night. He opens the door to take his meals and that's about it. And..." she trails off, looking nervous. "I apologize. I'll take you to him." she finished eventually as she turned and led Misaki through the hallways.

They were as extravagant as the exterior would suggest, with marble sculptures, paintings that seem authentic, and wood floors. At last, they reached Kanaye's room. She could tell because of the nameplate above the door. The maid bowed quickly and scampered away a bit too quickly.

Kanaye visibly clamped up. "I don't want to talk about it, ok?" he said quickly. "I realize that this isn't the time for repression, but I just don't feel comfortable about it..." he asked, visibly shifting.

"But do I really know who she is? I mean, she has a shadow, which means she's hiding something. How can I know that everything she's done before this wasn't a lie? How...It's...Just..." he managed to start before he started crying.

"Of course I want people to love and comfort me, everyone does. It's just so hard to trust someone to be able to do that without playing you for a fool and leaving you in the end. When that...stupid shadow popped up, pretending to be Maeko-chan, I...just...everything came back to me." he continued, crying even harder.

Kanaye managed to laugh. "That's another one for the books!" he shouted, wiping away tears. "More general self-esteem problems for our LOVELY investigation team. Really, do personae seek people with major problems or something?"

Misaki nodded slowly,"I understand, when you actually feel like it, I'll listen Sempai. It's the least I can do for you after everything you've done for me."

Misaki paused and thought a bit, then shook her head and looked at him, "Everyone probably has a shadow Sempai, it's if we let that shadow get the better of us that makes it dangerous. Because, Maeko-chan isn't the sort to lie about anything. She does care, and I know it's hard, it's hard for me too when I think about it. But...But I chose to be friends with Maeko-chan, I chose to give her the chance."

She got up and pulled out a tissue, handing it to him and putting her arms around him. "Sorry..." She paused and stroked his hair some, "I know it's hard, but not everyone is like that Sempai. I'm not, neither is Maeko-chan. She doesn't just leave people...and I'm not going to let that Shadow hurt you Sempai. I promise I'll protect you in there and get you to Maeko-chan. And you can tell her how you feel."

Misaki held him tighter, "Maybe...Maybe they do that so that we can face them rather then backing away from them. You know, so we can do the things that we want to do. Like...Like telling someone how we really feel, even if we're scared. I...I think they're there to give us strength, to help us...so we can grow as a person."

Kanaye just stared blankly. "Everyone has a shadow, true, but that doesn't mean it still hurts. Do you know how badly it feels to be reminded of the worst day in your life? It's...horrible." he said, shuddering.

He took the tissue, wondered where it was from, then promptly jumped across the room at Misaki's touch. "Will you please stop touching me? I know you're just trying to make me feel better but...it's...kind of scary." he said quickly.

Calming down a bit, he smiled. "Thanks, Misaki-san. I'll protect you as well, alright? We'll be fine. We'll save Maeko-chan, no matter what happens. Just...stop touching me, alright?"

"Of course it still hurts," Misaki told him softly, "It doesn't matter where it comes from, it'll hurt. But it's if we let it be a gaping wound or a scratch in there that makes the difference."

"I"m sorry! It's just that...I'm sorry." She said softly. Misaki moved back, "But, what are you going to do if you do start going out with Maeko-chan? How are you going to deal with actually touching her?"

She waved her hand, "Okay okay. I'm sorry. I won't touch you okay."

	Kanaye looked thoughtful for a moment, then shook his head. "I'll be fine. It's what couples do, right? I'd expect it. That was...kind of creepy and somewhat bordering on sexual harassment. Sorry, Misaki-san, but you don't randomly start stroking someone's hair..." he finished, somewhat creeped out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Um...but it's what my brother used to do to me when I cried," She shrugged, "It just helped me feel better." Misaki paused and smiled some, "Er...sexual harassment?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kanaye shuddered. "Yes, but I'm not your brother or related to you in any way besides 'friend and teammate.' Stroking my hair is...kind of creepy." He nodded quickly. "Yes, sexual harassment! Stroking someone in a way that they do not want to be stroked! It's creepy!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh my, I'm so sorry Sempai. I thought most people don't mind that. I'm so sorry!" She bowed some quickly and took a breath and rubbed her arm. "Sorry about that. Let me make it up to you. Can I at least clean this mess in the room?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kanaye sighs. "Just...if I bristle at your touch most of the time, stroking my hair isn't going to help, alright?" he said pleasently. "Don't worry, that's what the maids are for." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Alright Sempai, I understand," she said softly and smiled some. Then shook her head, "Why don't you lay down, and I'll start cleaning up okay. This would be too much for them to do, besides I don't mind, gives me something to touch and working like this is how I think."

Misaki gave him a gentle smile, "We'll save her I promise Sempai. I'll even make you a gift to give her after, okay?"

	Kanaye laid down as asked, but shook his head. "It's what they're paid for and it's not like they're not used to stuff like this. Really, it's no problem Misaki-san." He laughed sheepishly. "But...isn't giving someone a gift that someone else made kind of...weird?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Misaki carefully was arranging the saki bottles and looking for something to throw them into, "Well it's not good to give them this sort of work. You should be more careful sempai you could hurt yourself." She paused and tilted her head to the side, "Chan...I prefer chan. I get called Misaki-san all the time by my family's friends and really I don't like it."

She shrugged, "Not really, I mean it's for a good reason and you care about Maeko-chan. It's important to show her that, and, really I think it would mean more to her that you had it made then just picking it up at the store. It means you really thought about her feelings."

	"I could hurt myself doing anything." Kanaye says, shrugging. "I have to live a little sometime, right?" He sighed. "It would mean more to her then something bought in a store, yeah, but it's still something you made. If I made it, it would work, but..." he trailed off, smiling. "Hey, Misaki-chan, do you think you could do me another favor?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well I suppose if you're klutzy enough sure you could," Misaki told him and smiled, "Sure Sempai. What do you need?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I need to make something for Maeko-chan, but I have no idea what she would like." Kanaye said softly. "Do you mind telling me what I could make for her?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
