[ Yunoha's a bit shaken by the past events. She'd managed to stay safe, but still - the fact that something so dangerous had happened so soon was quite a wake-up call. Before that, she'd only really heard of silly things happening.

At least she's brave enough to use audio this time. Her small, querulous voice peeps over the system, sounding nervous - and a little depressed. ]

... I didn't realize that this place was so dangerous... People told me, but seeing it for myself is different. Um... I hope everyone is okay.

[ a pause while she gathers her bearings. ] Also... The maid told me when I got here that I had healing powers. At first I didn't believe her, but... Now I think it's probably true. But I still don't know how to use them... Is there a place I can go to learn? Or someone I can ask? If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to be able to help people at least a little...

[ because it seemed like a lot of people were not doing so great, and if she couldn't pilot Aquarion, she might as well do whatever she could to help. As little as it matches her appearance, she's used to taking out threats with heavy weaponry, not staying on the sidelines and healing - but it doesn't sound like a bad thing to her. ]

Um... I have one last request... If anyone has heard from Mikono Suzushiro or Zessica Wong, please tell me. They're my friends, but I haven't seen them lately.

The hospital is always taking volunteers. If you can handle seeing sickness and injury, you'll learn a lot there, and fast.

[Business out of the way, her voice softens a little.]

How are you holding up, Yunoha?

[voice]

[hazukashii]

It's fine. I think I'll be okay... [ hopefully. She does have a penchant for passing out when things get too much, but she is a soldier. Technically.

The concern is flattering, and even though you can't see it, Yunoha smiles a little. ]

... I'm okay. I'm trying to get used to it.

[voice]

[whatagoodgirl]

You can, you know. It probably doesn't feel like it, but you can get used to living in this place. You can even find really good things here, in the pauses between chaos.

[She's too tired to be giving motivational speeches, but she hopes that helps a little.]

[Permenant Private Text]

[key_illusion]

Are they still on the list?

[Permenant Private Text]

[hazukashii]

No. That means they're really gone, doesn't it?

[key_illusion]

As far as I know, yes.

[justwingingit]

So the maid told you you have powers too, Yunoha? At least yours sound more useful than mine. All I got was growth.

[And then a pause! Amata needs to say something, but fears confirming his worst suspicions]

...Actually, I haven't seen Zessica or Mikono around, either. After I talked to Mikono on the first day, I didn't see her again. I was hoping I we were just missing each other, but if you haven't seen her either...

[voice]

[hazukashii]

No... Her name isn't on the list anymore, either. [ she's really happy Amata is still here, at least, but it must be even worse for him, knowing Mikono isn't here. ] I'm sorry, Amata.

[voice]

[justwingingit]

It's okay... I didn't think she was here anymore...

[He just didn't want to admit it! Mikono-saaaaan ;~;]

Do you think she found a way back home? Zessica, too.

[Voice]

[needsmoregreen]

Hibiki mentioned that going to the hospital might help your healing powers. I'm planning on going there one day to improve my healing powers too!

Ah, we'll get a chance to meet each other in person if I do go!

[Voice]

[hazukashii]

R-really? I heard that, too... I'll try to go soon. Um... What's your name?

[video like a bawse]

[manlypassion]

Hmmmm~ You could always find somebody who gets beat up in the arena all the time and be their personal medic... Or just settle on finding somebody who's a total klutz and gets hurt all the time and be their loyal healing puppy dog.

[video just 4 u]

[hazukashii]

E-eh? There has to be a way to practice without people getting hurt...

[ except it's a healing power but gosh darnit she'll find a way. ]

You okay?

[hazukashii]

Is this Ernest?

I'm all right.

[burntviolet]

[ Oh, that girl... Hanako is glad at least she's okay. ]

If you'd like to learn more about Healing, there is the Teacher's Council with people who will be more than glad to teach you. The hospital might be a good alternative, though.

... I know of Wong-san, but I haven't heard of her after the attacks. Did you try to contact them?

[Audio]

[hazukashii]

I did, but... they're not on the contact list anymore. [ a short pause, and then a disappointed little sigh. ] ... That means that she's not in the city, I think.

[deputychief]

Ah, so many people here do voice the desire to help people, over anything else. It's interesting, isn't it?

Practice, really, is the only guide we have to our powers, it seems. And possibly strengthening them by doing as the gods have asked of us and socializing.

[hazukashii]

[ ah, it's Itsuki. She offers a timid greeting by waving her stuffed animal's hand at him. ]

But I don't know the first thing about using healing... Do I concentrate hard on what I want to fix? [ maybe it's like her Element power. ] And... if they asked us to help, doing that is probably the best way out... I don't know what else to do.

[innerstrength]

I'm alright, I just hid the whole time.

[ Oops, she sounds a little ashamed of that but she was really scared, haha. ]

Oh, sorry! Are you alright? I don't even know your name and I'm talking to you like I know you or something.

voice

[hazukashii]

I-it's okay... I'm fine. You don't need to feel bad.

[hatecomplex]

That might come in handy, healing I mean. I knew someone that had that too[he bites his tongue, the silence and anxiety stopping his words. Where was she anyways?]

Can't say I know 'em. That name, Zessica though, I may have seen her but its been awhile. They might've [he pauses] I hear a lot of people have gone missing lately, even after what happened-[He still hasn't heard anything back yet from Tohru. He doesn't want to think that she's gone home, not yet. He won't give up hope yet.] I'm lookin' for someone too.

voice;

[hazukashii]

[ this poor guy sounds distressed. Her voice is cautious, but symapthetic. ]

... Yes, I think Zessica's probably gone back... It's sad, but I think she'd be happier back in Neo-Kowloon. [ beat. ] Um... Who are you looking for?

[ ᴀᴜᴅıᴏ ]

[corona]

[ Oh come on!!! Zessica too? Hadn't she told Yunoha explicitly that her friends would be around for them to get through this together?

Her stomach hurts. ] Yunoha, hey... I'm really glad to hear you doing so well. Bad arrival timing, huh?

Have you ever used your powers before?

[ ᴀᴜᴅıᴏ ]

[hazukashii]

Rapunzel... Hello. [ at the very least, Amata was still around. She's trying to keep her spirits up. ] Mm... But there's nothing I can do about it, so it's okay.

Well... I haven't tried healing yet.
