[Once the video starts up, one can see that Bianca is hard at work on something. With all the fabric and threads to the side, it looks like she has something in mind. However, there appears to be that there are small pieces of fabric everywhere.]

Um...I wondering, does anyone here know how to stitch really well? I've been trying to but I don't think I'm suppose to be doing what I'm suppose to do...

[With that, she holds up a very piece of cloth. It was suppose to be a tree with a sun on the side but it ended up looking...well...something like this. In addition, some of the cloth wasn't sewed in very well. With Jasmine gone, she wasn't sure who else to turn to for something like this.]

I was hoping that I could make a quilt for everyone but I think that might have to wait until I can figure out how to make a pillow case first!

[And filtered away from Lucas like whoa but she isn't good at filtering things anyway so...]

And besides, I think it's only fair right? After all, I made someone really sad...

Not quite! It's um...suppose to be a sun shining on the tree but I never thought of a tree and a sun hugging like that before.

Hm...it'll be interesting to try out!

Oh... right, I see it now! It's just shining...

[ he should probably stop talking, huh. ]

But it's really good anyway! [ maybe saying that is slightly less convincing now. ]

[...]

You really think so? I think I still need work but...I'm not really good with these types of things...

It's...

[ what was that term again? ]

Avante-garde!

Avante-garde?

You really think so? Hm...what else do you think I could add to it to make it more nicer? I really want it to pop out and really exciting!

Maybe some animals...or clouds... [mumble mumble]

Oh, clouds is a good idea. Since that's supposed to be the sky, right?

Maybe... fruit! It can be an apple tree, or a lemon tree, or... maybe both?

[ can trees even be both... ]

Mhmm, that's right! Oh, that reminds me, maybe I could add a rainbow too if there's enough room for it! What else goes up in the sky too...

Hm, I don't think it's possible to add a apple and a lemon in the same tree...

But I don't see why not! The more fruits, the better right?

[This is going to be one interesting pillow pattern...]

Right! More stuff is better... so a rainbow, and fruits, and...

Oh, I know! If you need more stuff to put in the sky, you can add the moon! And stars! Those go in the sky, don't they?

[ just... usually not when the sun is also up there... ]

Yea, I think that would work! I'll just have to see if there's enough room to fit everything in here but if it doesn't, that's okay! I'll just make to make room for it!

[And before she gets started on her sewing, she stares right back at Satoshi]

By the way, it sounds like you knew a lot about sewing. Do you know how to?

Eh? Oh...

[ he pauses, looking a bit sheepish before nodding. ]

Just a little. I'd fix up things back home sometimes... you know, rips and stuff like that. [ a pause. ] My aunt and uncle would make me do it. [ someone had to... ]

But it sounds like you really know what you're doing even it is just rips! I know I can't do any of that, my mom usually does stuff like that!

It sounds like you're an expert to sew up all the rips in your clothes though!

Oh... yeah. My mom wasn't really around for that kind of stuff, so someone had to do it.

For me and my little sister.

It sounds like you had to take care of yourself and your little sister too!

[Giggle]

I beat your sister was the luckiest sister ever! I wish I had a brother who was willing do that kind of stuff for me! Now I'm a little envious!

Um... well, I did my best.

I'm not sure if she'd agree with you though. Things were pretty tough sometimes too.

[ understatement... ]

Really?

But it sounds like you must be really strong if things were that tough! You managed it so that says something right?

[And the wonders of the Higurashi curse]

You think so? I never felt really strong...

[ a shake of the head. ]

No, it's more like... I had no other choice.

[ and a pesky curse driving him insane too, yes. ]

Hey, don't you ever say that! I'm sure you're plenty strong, you just don't know it yet! The fact that you managed to take care of yourself and your little sister is proof of that!

[And she points toward him through the video. Yes her finger is on the screen. Of course, she doesn't know about the curse.]

While you might not have a choice, you're still here right? That's more than enough!

Really...? [ he still isn't too sure, but she seems really sure. so she must be right, right? ] If you say so... then I guess I am pretty strong! But only because you say so.

[ that works... right? ]

Y, yeah! I'm still here. [ he pats himself down, just to check. ] And that means... wait, what does that mean again?

[Stare] Hm? You don't believe me? You don't need to be strong because I said so.

I'm saying it because I know so! You should have more confidence in yourself, silly! [Said the girl who has self-esteem issues]

Oh, uh, well...it's suppose to mean that if you can live through a place like Asgard...it means that you're strong enough. That's all.

Right. Self-confidence... [ he's heard that one before. ]

I've been working on it, but I guess it hasn't worked yet. Don't worry though, I'll figure out how to do it eventually. [ probably? ]

Oh, that makes sense. It's actually pretty dangerous here sometimes, huh...

[She doesn't sound convinced! Have some more staring at you!]

Hm...well, we'll just have to find something that you're good at! Maybe that will help you with your self-esteem!

So what are you good at? Oh, what do you like to do the most? That's the better question!

Mhmm! I don't know how long you have been here but if it's as long as I have, then you've lived through a lot! That darkness event, the war... [pause] Freyr's...death...

Um... I've been training to come up with a special move. Does that count?

[ that's what he concluded he needed to do last time he had a conversation like this, anyway... ]

I haven't been able to come up with one yet, though. [ shockingly. ]

Oh! I've been here for like... um... since before the war, yeah... [ gulp. ] And that other thing too.

I think so! If it's something, it counts! As long as it makes you feel happier in the end, that's all that matters right? Just...as long as it's something...

[mumble] Just..anything at all...

[But then she quickly turns her worries into smiles]

And you say you're not strong, hmmm?

I don't know if it'll make me happier... but someone's counting on me to do it, so I'll do it.

[ that trailing off at the end was a bit strange though. he considers asking her about it, but maybe she doesn't want to talk about it? either way, while he's mulling over that quandary... ]

Oh... well, maybe I'm a little tough then. Not really strong... but I'm pretty confident in my [ ability to take a beating. ] resilience!

[With that, Bianca's smile softens]

I think it might. If you make other people happy, you're happy yourself right? [It's still something!] It sounds like they really believe in you though...

[Oh Satoshi]

See? That's something you can be proud of! No matter what happens, you know you can bounce right back! So you can be happy about that um....sir!
