Oriko got hurt. Someone attacked her. I took care of it, though.

Where's the priest guy? I think I need to talk to him.

[ not like usagi has any idea of what "took care of it" means in this context.. ]

.. Attacked-- h.. hey, are you okay?

voice;

[justforyou]

Yeah. I'm fine.

[She sounds...tired. Almost emotionless.]

[selene]

You don't sound like you're fine, you know.. [ there's a hint of something worried in her tone. ]

Was it a difficult battle?

[justforyou]

My closest friend got hurt. [if this was video, Usagi could see Kirika shrug]

I've had tougher.

[selene]

Hey, if something's wrong, you can just say it..! Your best friend being hurt is a bad thing-- a-at least, I think it would be if it happened to one of my friends! So if you feel sad about it, it's okay to cry, or say you feel sad or.. or anything like that..

That's what friends are for, to listen to each other.

[justforyou]

[She takes a breath. She's not sure that Usagi would want to hear this but, she did ask.]

The person that hurt her...I hate them. I hate people like them.

[selene]

[ .. "Hatred". It's not any kind of emotion Usagi herself can understand - being mad at someone, sure, but not hatred. But still, if her friend was hurt.. ]

Since they hurt other people..?

[justforyou]

[Kirika...hates a lot of things. Don't get her started.]

Yeah. They think they're perfect just because they're magical girls.

[selene]

Magical girls.. [ Just like her, huh? ]

Well, it's true that we're just like normal people, right? I mean, I'm different from the ones from your world, of course, but I don't think I'm anything special! So I'm sure they're not always perfect where you come from either.

[justforyou]

I don't like them. There's just too many.

[selene]

Too many is not the problem though, right? If they just have the right attitude, then better would be even better! It means there's even more people to protect the peace of the Earth!

[justforyou]

Too many cooks in the kitchen spoils the soup or however that goes.

[selene]

.. Well, I guess I am pretty bad at cooking.. [ she nervously giggles to herself. ]

[justforyou]

Yeah, I suck at it, too. Well. Okay, I'm not that bad. It's edible! That's good, right?

[selene]

Oh, edible is definitely good! I mean, if you can eat it, then I would totally eat it! So don't worry, you at least have one person who'd always eat your food!

[justforyou]

I'm hungry now...

[selene]

Me too..! Hey, hey, you should come over again so we can go get some cake together!

[justforyou]

But I can't leave Oriko alone...

[selene]

[ .. ah, right, her friend got hurt.. ]

Well, maybe once she's better? Or you could bring her along sometime when she feels good enough to move around again, then it could be all three of us!

[justforyou]

[...Jeeze, Usagi. That's kinda important.]

I guess you can come over here...

[selene]

Hehe, thank you! Then let's do that sometime soon, okay?

[justforyou]

Okay, I guess.
