[Day 224] [Video|Voice|Action|Open]
[For weeks Klara had deluded herself in the false sense of security about what she could and couldn't do here. She had listened and tried and thought maybe she was making progress. She didn't have to be a monster, could make sure that she stayed in control.

Then they were sent to the other prison. She had been normal in most ways. Human almost. It had been like a terrible sweet trickster dream on her. She had still needed blood, but the sound of heartbeats and breathing and the smell of people--so delicious, like a freshly spiced steak--had been gone. It had been wonderful.

And then they had come back. And so had the real hunger. Reality was always so much harsher than her dreams.

She's currently in the library, taking notes and all the different books on the supernatural that she could find, many of them about curses and vampires. There are even two about contagious diseases. To anyone who comes across her, they might notice the sharp edge to her movements, the jerking turns of the pages that isn't as gentle and reverent as how she usually treats books.

Klara's impatient and maybe even looks worried to those who are good at discerning body language despite her blank expression. She needs to do more and so she finally decides to ask for help.]

...What do you do when you...really really want something, but you know you shouldn't have it? Like...being allergic to chocolate, but you really love chocolate. How do you make yourself stop wanting things that are bad for you?

[Or bad for other people. Her voice is hesitant, but she can't think of what else to do. After an evident pause she also asks]

And...is there anyone who is good at...wood carving? Such as carving words and nice, clear designs into wood? I want to decorate my house, but I'm not good at it. [A truth and a lie.] I can draw what I want for someone else...if they're willing.

[She adds a bit quickly.] I can do something for you in return, too.

	[She really would prefer wood, but maybe if someone else is better at this than she is...] ...Do you know how to put designs on the walls that can't come off? I don't want them to wash away. To paint them on the walls so they don't look sloppy? [She can't draw them together herself. Not as a whole like they need to be.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He puts a hand to his chin.] It depends on the type of design you're looking for. Sometimes you can use templates and tape, but for more original designs, it requires a more careful hand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's a design I know...from home. I can draw it for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perfect! I'm interested in taking a look at it, since it would help in determining what the best option for your wall is as far as type of paints and any other materials you might be interested in! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I... [She's a little hesitant now if only because he seems so enthusiastic. It make her want to back out and apologize and tell him to forget all about it.] I'm at the library. I could...show you here? [So at least they are in a place with other people.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hikaru gives her a thumbs up!] Sure, sure. Just give me a few minutes to get there. I'm in the same Sector, so it shouldn't take that long! Don't move a muscle! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He says that and she stiffens, freezing for a moment before reminding herself he couldn't mean that literally. She shouldn't take things so seriously.] I'll be here. ...Thanks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Hikaru arrives at the library minutes later! He walks around, looking for a little girl. It occurs to him just now that maybe he should have asked what her name was, or gave her his name. Something to make this easier!]

Eh... [He rubs the nape of his neck as he looks at anyone he passes by carefully. He also does his best to be on the quieter side, because it's a library and he is usually on loud and noisy.] ... You're the girl asking about designs for your house, aren't you...?

	[She should have thought of it, too, but she didn't. But when she sees someone looking around, she stands up and steps towards him.] Um...yes. I'm Klara. I...can draw one of the sy--designs for you now, if you want. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm Hikaru! It's nice to meet you, Miss Klara! [He reminds himself to lower his volume, so he then takes his enthusiasm down a notch, and smiles and nods.] Sure. Go right ahead. Let me know when you're ready. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[A handsome older boy just called her "Miss Klara," it's like living in some strange world--which she guess she is now. She brushes some hair behind her ear before turning back to her table and picking up a pen.]

It's just a nice design I liked at home. My dad had put it all over my room there.

[She draws quickly a circle and inside of it is what looks to be a seven pointed star with a symbol in the center.] Um...this is the main part and then different symbols go around the outside.
