Week 2: After investigation

[disclosures]

[Once again she can be found in the covers- there's no loud sobbing this time. She's still stuck being silent this entire week and she looks somewhere between miserable and murderous. Natsuo was clearly her favorite and now he's not even alive. What kind of monster kills a puppy like that!

Next to her are two collections of fairy tales.]

Comments

[discardia]

... You don't have to say anything.

[ rather, she knows she can't, but-- ]

But can I come under there with you?

[disclosures]

[She lifts up part of the blankets as a "yes, go ahead". Better to be miserable with company than miserable alone.]

[discardia]

[ Very true, so she'll just crawl under the blankets with a sigh.

Hi. ]

[disclosures]

[She pulls a pillow over and presses her face into it.

Why... Why Natsuo?]

[discardia]

We'll figure out who did it. I swear it.

[disclosures]

[She pulls one of the books over, all to tap on the word

"promise"]

[discardia]

[ to that, Cardia pulls off a glove and extends her pinky. She'll do you one better. ]

[disclosures]

[She'll link their fingers together and shake them.

A pinky promise. That's the strongest promise possible.

They'll find whoever did this to Natsuo.]

[discardia]

[ and then whoever did this is going to severely regret it. ]
