[video | action open to Heimdall]

[whatagoodgirl]

I... I don't understand...

[The small, slender Japanese girl with the high ponytail and downtilted eyes might be familiar to some. She's standing in front of Heimdall House with a newcomer's letter in her hands, dressed in the same uniform as the first time she arrived, but it doesn't quite fit right anymore - she's gotten taller since she made it, started to fill out a little. At least in Asgard, which proves that she hasn't been completely reset.

The confusion on her face starts to contort into alarm as her words confirm that truth.]

Isn't - it over? I remember Freyr - when he - wasn't that the end? But now it's like none of it ever happened... the letter, and the maid, and everything looks just like the first time...

[And now edging into panic as she leans against one of the house's walls, wrapping her arms around her middle and shivering.]

What's going on?!

((ooc: and the thing is done ;D))

[... Euri, do you know who you sound like. Just sayin'.]

Well, as long as it's quiet, we can worry about getting the city healthy again and being more ready for the next fight. The gods mostly just got in the way of that, anyway, so having them busy sorting themselves out could be a good thing.

[occulthymns]

[Shh that's how she normally sounds when under duress.]

Mm! I think a concert is going to be put on soon, not run by the gods, so that should help. [And she grins, poking Nakama's shoulder.] You're going to have to find work again, too.

[whatagoodgirl]

I know. I don't even know if Tailor Made is still here, or if my bosses have gone grey again, or anything. [She wrings her hands, starting to fret anew.] There's so much to catch up on.

[occulthymns]

[In response Euri is going to ruffle her hair.]

Well, even if you have to find a new job I'm sure it won't be tough. And I now owe you a Christmas gift, so you can look forward to that.

[whatagoodgirl]

[She immediately takes down her ponytail to straighten her hair and pull it up again, sighing. Why does everyone do that to her?

But then the resignation on her face is replaced by shock.]

Euri, no, you don't have to... too many people want to give me gifts, and I have no way of giving any back. It's not fair.

[occulthymns]

You don't have to give me something in return. But - if you feel like you have to you can when you've started working again. I don't mind waiting.

[whatagoodgirl]

O... kay. [She smiles shyly, nodding once.] Thanks, Euri. I don't know if any of my old gifts will still be here... I know sometimes peoples' stuff disappears when they leave.

[occulthymns]

It does, but sometimes it stays. It isn't a big deal.

So what day do you want to go shopping?

[whatagoodgirl]

Um... I kind of want a day to check in on everything, you know? Work, the hospital, all the stuff I used to do. So maybe the day after tomorrow?

[occulthymns]

Okay! [She nods.] That's fine for me.

[whatagoodgirl]

It's... it's so good to see everyone again. I mean, it only feels like yesterday to me, but I was so sure it was over - and I can feel how long I was gone in the way people look at me. It's weird, but... I'm really happy.

[occulthymns]

Well... it's different when you go back to being dead instead of just going home. It was hard on a lot of people when you left. [She's thinking of Roxas in particular.]

[whatagoodgirl]

[She hangs her head, nodding just a little.]

I - I know. I wish I'd talked to everybody personally, said proper goodbyes...

[occulthymns]

You had no way of knowing they would send you home so soon. I think you were lucky you got to say your peace beforehand - that helped Roxas a bit.

[whatagoodgirl]

Roxas...

[Her expression is a complex thing: there's some concern there, and uneasiness, but also a happy shine to her eyes which makes it clear that something has changed.]
