[she


immediately checks her belt. phone's there, fan's there... uh...]

What? I didn't think I'd lost anything...

[alteracion]

[ grace looks at the camera like she's on the office, but like, mentally, so it's fine

anyway, she reaches into her pouch to take out the necklace she "found" ]

Is this not yours, then?

[shiftingwinds]

...

[well. it sure looks like hers.]

...yes, but... I've only taken it out of my room once.

[alteracion]

Hmmm... And you don't think you lost it then? [ she looks perfectly baffled ] Did you bring a dog in your room at some point, maybe?

[shiftingwinds]

...oh! Come to think of it, I did. Maybe it ran off with it?

[she smiles]

Thanks for bringing it back. You have a good eye, to have figured out it was mine!

[alteracion]

That must be it. Dogs get into everything.

[ grace holds out the necklace for shi to take ]

It's the style of it? I guess it could've been Gu Yun or Ming Yi's, but it didn't seem to fit either of them to me.

[shiftingwinds]

[she takes the necklace! and tucks it into her sleeve for safekeeping for now.]

Ahaha... well, you're right. [...] It's a matched set - my brother has the other one. So... I do appreciate having it returned.

[alteracion]

[ inwardly: oh thank fuck i brought it back ]

Your brother... [ ... ] Is he what you're here for? Your wish?

[shiftingwinds]

...

[she shakes her head]

No, my wish was more selfish than that.

[alteracion]

The black thing, then?

[ she pauses ]

Obviously you don't have to tell me! Sorry, I got curious.

[shiftingwinds]

No, it's okay. It's not really a secret.

[she smiles faintly]

I came here to gain the power to deal with the thing you saw in my memories.

[alteracion]

I wouldn't call that selfish. It's not like you asked to be cursed.

[shiftingwinds]

Still, it was a self-serving wish.

[alteracion]

I guess. Is that really such a bad thing, though?

[shiftingwinds]

Well, no, not necessarily... it's just not as selfless as coming here for my brother's sake or something like that.

[alteracion]

I'm sure your brother wouldn't mind you coming for that too, though.

[shiftingwinds]

...no, I think no matter what the reason was, he'd be mad at me for coming here. He'd tell me I should have just let him handle it.

[alteracion]

... He's really protective of you, huh?

[shiftingwinds]

He is.

[alteracion]

[ hmmm ]

I wonder what that's like. I never had a sibling, so I can't imagine... I think it'd drive me a little crazy, though.

[shiftingwinds]

He cares a lot... I know that much. [...] I'm lucky that he cares. But sometimes he crosses the line.

...but that's family, right?

[alteracion]

[ ... ]

I don't know. It was just me and my parents, and I left a long time ago. They weren't really the overprotective kind.

[shiftingwinds]

Oh...

[she left her parents behind, huh... that must have been tough.]

I'm sorry. [...] But it was your choice to leave...?

[alteracion]

The train came, and... I didn't want to be there anymore.

[ she blinks and shrugs ]

Well, I'm way better off now. Life before was so boring.

[shiftingwinds]

...that's good. I'm glad you found somewhere you'd rather be.
