IC Inbox - Asgard Eventide

[samantha_grey]

An old, brick edifice stands in front of the burnt-down ruins of a home in the hillside. Mountains rear up in all directions, covered in lush, green vegetation. Nobody comes this way anymore, but you have the sense that anything placed in the mailbox attached to this old structure will be found by someone, the only living person for whom this place still has any meaning.

The tea helps. It's something I brew myself. The last two new moons, that part of me hasn't come out, and believe me when I say I'm trying to find a way that doesn't involve me being locked up and strapped to a chair for twenty-four hours. It isn't pleasant.

But I have hurt people here, Bianca. Badly. I don't want to do that again, whatever it takes. I'm tired of waking up, covered in blood or worse.

[needsmoregreen]

[Once again, there was long pause before Bianca finally spoke up]

Then that's settled! If I can...I'll try to find a way to cure you from this other side! As long as I'm here, then I'll do something! Just...

Got to believe, that's all!

[samantha_grey]

You do that... but if it's the New Moon, and I'm acting weird, stay away. I'll... focus on the tea.

[needsmoregreen]

I will but...in the meantime, aren't you safe to talk to now?

So until that time, I'm going to stick around and talk to until forever! To the point where you might even get sick of me!

[giggle]

But I might be annoying you after a while.

[samantha_grey]

Yeah, I'm fine right now... but you'd be surprised how much of a tolerance I've got for that. Remember, I'm the one who was setting Ritsu up on a date.

[She had learned to put up with quite a bit, though she had a feeling Bianca would stretch that.]

[needsmoregreen]

Oh, I remember that!

...By the way, how did it go? I know that Jasmine is gone but...they had fun right?

[And she was kind of the one who suggested him to her too]

[samantha_grey]

They did have fun, even though they were really awkward through the whole thing. He apologized a lot less than I expected. Still more than he should have, but it was a start.

[needsmoregreen]

But that's great! If he didn't, doesn't that mean he's starting to have some confidence in himself?

[No, not really?]

[samantha_grey]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. He's got a long way to go, and it might take longer than we've got here.

[needsmoregreen]

But it's a start right?

That date was something so hopefully it did help right?

[samantha_grey]

I'm trying to be realistic, but hopefully so, hopefully so. He's a tougher nut than me in some ways to crack.

[needsmoregreen]

You know, I can't help but wonder why he's always feeling like this..

It must be really tough to constantly feel like you're a bother to people and you don't feel like you're good enough.

[Doesn't this sound familiar?]

[samantha_grey]

I really have no clue. Even I don't feel like that every day. I bet it had something to do with how he was raised. It's too deeply ingrained.

[needsmoregreen]

I was hoping that maybe I could take him out shopping since he liked to wear a lot of girl clothes but...I wonder if that's counterproductive or not.

I just hope it isn't or else I would have messed up really badly! Ahhhh, I didn't want to turn out like that!

[samantha_grey]

Nah, do it. He needs to get out more, and just assume he'll apologize constantly. He always does.

[needsmoregreen]

I still don't know about this but...if it makes him feel comfortable, I just hope that he'll be more happier with himself later in life.

I know Asgard isn't the best place to be but if this place can make him happier, then I think I can say there's something good about here!

[samantha_grey]

At the very least, I think some things are a little better for him here. It might help if he can stay for a while.

[needsmoregreen]

Hm? What do you mean by stay for a while?

[Because wouldn't he have to go at some point? She can't tell when he might but still...]

[samantha_grey]

Just how long he stays here is all. If he stays long enough, then maybe it'll help him cope at least while he's here.

[needsmoregreen]

I just hope...that everything will be okay in the end. I-I know that there's still a lot to learn about myself so I just hop-

No, I know that Ritsu will turn out okay! I'll just have to keep on thinking happily since I know everything will be fine.

[samantha_grey]

Eh, what's the worst that could happen? He apologizes to a giant for healing their opponent?

[needsmoregreen]

Or going to the enemies themselves and giving them a hug!

[Don't ask]

[samantha_grey]

... I don't see him giving them a hug, but something similar, yes.

[needsmoregreen]

Hm...you know, I have an idea!

Do you know when Ritsu's birthday is? When it happens, we need to throw him a surprise party! We'll invite all his friends and it goes to show how much he's loved here in Asgard! It might be a good way to cheer him up!

[samantha_grey]

You know... I'm not entirely sure I ever asked him. That sounds like a brilliant idea.

[And a perfect way to make him go completely bonkers]

You need to ask him, carefully, so he doesn't suspect.
