[ Sorry, Aqua. It's just that someone like Masako who has literally never had acquaintances, let alone downright friends, can't really understand a concept like that easily, if at all.. ]

It sounds like your world is very different from mine. [ So that's the explanation for it her mind settles on. ]

[blue_wayfinder]

Does it?

[That surprises her a little. So far, it seems to her this is something that's pretty universal.]

[huntressing]

I thought it was the nature of every place, but.. forging bonds and keeping them isn't that easy. People leave you more often than they stay.

[ Granted, it's more Masako's experience than anyone else's, but she's too quick to generalise.. ]

In the end, all you have left to rely on is yourself when you're all alone.

[blue_wayfinder]

[She shakes her head.]

They might leave you physically but a part of them stays with you. [Her voice becomes softer, though no less sure.]

Before I came here, I was...lost somewhere that wasn't very pleasant. [Which was a bit of an undersatement, but she's not going to go into any real details.] If it wasn't because of my friends, because of the promise I made them...I'm sure I wouldn';t have survived.

[huntressing]

.. You survived because of a promise? That doesn't even sound like it is physically possible.

[blue_wayfinder]

A promise between friends can be a really powerful thing.

[There's a lot more to it but that is...the gist of it.]

It gave me strength when I needed it, that's why I can't just discard it.

[huntressing]

That's great and convenient for you then. But it's not the way most people can live. [ She even doubts it's really the promise that pulled her through - in Masako's view of the world, it's just completely impossible. She can't even imagine it. ]

So it won't help me a bit.

[blue_wayfinder]

[She doesn't answer right away, but when she does, her words are measured and calm.]

I think it could help you more than you realize. [But she doesn't really want to force the issue. Not right now.]

[huntressing]

.. Then that is your belief. This is mine.

[ Sorry Aqua, it seems she's too stuck in butt mode for now.. maybe with more prodding some other time. ]

[blue_wayfinder]

...I suppose so.

[Some other time then. Because she's only letting things drop for now.]

My name is Aqua by the way.

[huntressing]

Masako Natsume.

[ It's all she offers. But she might actually bother to remember the other girl's name if not just for convenience's sake, at least that's g.. ood.. right..? ]

[blue_wayfinder]

[She doesn't particularly mind, either way.]

It's nice to meet you.
