[well as soon as Itsuki sees her, he'll immediately smile -- then wince a little. half his face is bandaged and his shoulder is too, but he'll reach forward to pull her into a hug if she's close enough]
I think so? Nogiku-san and I... we were part of that race. Steel Ball Run? Also, we were really good at riding horses. We didn't know what else was going on though, we were just drawn to the church.
We got beat up pretty bad, but you showed up towards the end and saved us.
[he shifts so she can rest more comfortably against him,
he feels worse now, knowing that this girl is real -- and that she was in trouble, and that he had done nothing to help. maybe it's because of kazuha's voice still fresh in his mind. he doesn't like leaving people behind,]
...What happened to her? Does the President still have her...?

WEEK 6 THURSDAY
Itsuki...you feeling alright?
no subject
Everything hurts, but I'm fine, promise.
no subject
You'd better be.
no subject
[HOT PANTS YOUR PETALS!!! He'll ease back a little so he can peer at her,]
...Yeah. Not sure why I didn't recognize you then, but it was definitely you.
no subject
[Now she's giving him a dubious look.]
Don't tell me I attacked you.
no subject
No... you saved us.
[...]
I don't know where Kazu-kun and Kumon-kun were, but... Nogiku-san and I were at the church. The one in your memory that I saw.
no subject
[Oh. She's freezing.]
That church? "Civil War"?

no subject
[Now she's actually kind of a little mad.]
Why would it use my memories-? [GET OUT OF HER HEAD, PRISM] Well, I'm glad you're alright, regardless. And that...other me didn't attack you.
no subject
Well... You were kind of rough with me? Even though you were so nice to Nogiku-san...
[WEH]
no subject
Maybe you deserved it?
no subject
Aw... I mean, I always deserve it, but... [it was cruel... sniff sniff] I get it. I'd pay more attention to Nogiku-san too.
no subject
Well, you can be pretty stupid.
no subject
Wow? [he laughs a little, wincing] But it's not like I understood a word of what that president guy was saying, so you're probably right.
no subject
[Her face instantly falls.]
.........Oh, please don't tell me Valentine was there.
no subject
Itsuki immediately looks guilty...]
...He was, yeah. He wanted the corpse parts? That we were carrying. The others kept theirs from him, but I ended up giving mine to him...
[he's ashamed.............]
no subject
[She's kind of giving him a LOOK here.]
Why in the world would you do that?
no subject
...There was a girl. She was crying, and she looked like she was in trouble. I thought giving the eyeball to her would help her...
no subject
Was she...with Valentine? Did she look strange?
no subject
Her body was... it looked wooden. Like the parts we were carrying...
...Do you know who she was?
no subject
Lucy Steel. She was caught up in that whole affair. The President used her as a way to collect the powers of the corpse.

no subject
[So yes, sadly...she has no idea whether she could be saved from that.]
