H-how is that possible? [It never even occurred to Tear that the other girl was lying. Out of everything else she'd heard here, it could have been true.]

[heavenscorpse]

A parasitic flower. I absorbed people's thoughts.

[mysterical]

[Tear just stands there and looks at the other girl, a little surprised. It takes her a moment before she can speak again.]

And...since you've been here?

[heavenscorpse]

[She shakes her wireframe head.]

Just at home. I don't have any special powers in this form.

[mysterical]

[After a minute, Tear is intensely curious about what her new friend can do, but now is not the time to have this discussion.]

If things calm down, I'd like to have another talk. However, right now, we need to stay close to those we can trust. Are you alright or would you like to move around with Luke and I?

[heavenscorpse]

I'm okay. Please look for people who need more help than me.

[mysterical]

[Tear reaches out and squeezes V/V's arm for a moment.] Stay safe, okay? The situation is pretty hectic, but it won't stay that way. I'll find you when it's calmed down.

[heavenscorpse]

Thank you. [V/V puts her hand over Tear's on her arm for a moment, then lets go.] You stay safe, too.

[mysterical]

[It's touching to have someone else concerned for her safety and Tear can't help but smile, though she's sure it's lost in the fact that she has no facial features.]

I'd be a horrible soldier if I died before my mission was complete, V/V. I plan on it.

[heavenscorpse]

I believe you.

[With that, V/V turns to go look for someone else to help.]
