A-ahhh.... Hello? Good day, this is Tohru Honda. [She sounds highly nervous and uncertain of what she's doing, talking to this machine like it's a phone. It's just a screen. So advanced! And DVDs had surprised her; this was even beyond that! All the same, she smiles brightly.] This is almost like being a secret agent with a secret device I'm speaking into. Like contacting headquarters!

[But, sadly, the reality isn't as glamorous, and she gets right back to the matter at hand.]

I was told by the kind woman that I could get more information this way. It would be very appreciated if someone has the time.... If not, that's alright! I can probably read around and listen for what others say.

The letter she gave me said I was - [she's still stunned by this!] brought here to restore color. To help. To flourish.

I'm uncertain how much help I can be with that, but I will try my best, if you will have me. And if you will, I am more than happy to give my all here. I am very honored.

[She tries to, and thinks that she did, shut the feed off. The screen is still there, no longer floating but fixed in place, however - she's looking through the names listed - it's just switched to voice as Tohru didn't quite push the right button in her nervousness. This sort of technology is very new to her.]

I left without being able to tell anyone. And Uo-chan and Hana-chan. What will they think when I turn up missing? I can't turn away if this place needs help. I wish I had been able to tell them....

And Kyo-kun. [She trails off there, any further thoughts being so personal she won't even mutter them out loud.]

I should go look for where I need to stay.
[Feed shuts off.]

[Just to turn on again five minutes later. Tohru is looking up at the sky - with owls everywhere - in awe.] Look at all the birds! [No, it doesn't occur to her they shouldn't be out during the day.] So pretty.... I'm not used to seeing so many at once!

[Yes, she just had to tell you that. Now it's off. For good this time, really.]

[She laughs a little from relief.]

So it's okay?

[He frowns, tilting his head slightly without realizing]

What's okay? [Her question is obvious that he almost doesn't get it]

[O...h the hug]

Of course its okay! I didn't push you away when you tried, did I?!

[GOSH TOHRU, so silly]

I just wanted to be sure.

[He gives her a funny look, part of him still thinks she's going to vanish at any point now. I mean let's be serious, there's no way that she's real and that she's here in front of him and that she just hugged him, right??

I mean its gotta be fake or some part of it. guess he'd find out in the morning] Sure you did.

[Even if she's a little worried about his reactions/lack of, she's still smiling right back at him.]

Well, I wouldn't want to do it again if you didn't like it. I want to help you be happy, not do things that would upset you.

[That makes him feel okay, that ya know, she's happy about it]

I never said I didn't like it. I highly doubt that you'd do anything to upset me.

Well, okay. In that case....

[She leans over to give him another hug, smiling up at him brightly and happy.] Just one more.

[It still only slightly takes him by suprise, but he quickly eases into the hug, half awkwardly]

Don't take advantage of me now.

T-take advantage?! [Immediate alarm as she backs away.]

I wouldn't.... If I am, tell me so I can stop!

[He laughs he didn't mean it exactly in a vile manner, he just did it to get a reaction out of her. And guess what? It worked!]

You aren't silly! It was a joke.

Oh! [She giggles and blushes, feeling a little stupid for not getting it, but still amused Kyo pulled one on her so easily.]

I don't always get jokes.

[He knocks her lightly on the head with the edge of his knuckle. ]

One day you will. I'll teach you.

[She beams to that.]

Then I'll try to be a good student and learn.

[He nods]

Good I expect the very best out of my pupils.
