Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

...oh dear.

That would explain why the others were running from her.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

[well]

[whoops]

. . . my bad!

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

Yes...

In the future, try not to instil fear in the heart of a girl who feels only one thing at a time.

Still, you did your best.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

She gave some pretty helpful advice to me and Aoko, anyway.

[so she wasn't too frightening]

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

I suppose it worked out for the best, then.

I am pleased to see that you are safe.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

So am I, trust me.

Aoko's. . . [hesitates] She's safe, too. But some of the things in your soul are a little. . .

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

I know.

We are inherently incompatible in many ways.

Sadly, I cannot protect her from myself in here.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

She's tough.

[he says that earnestly]

She won't let it hold her back.

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

...I know.

She is very strong. And she will be fine.

So this hurt shall fade.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

[tilts his chin up a bit]

Tell her that.

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

...Is she worried that she has hurt me?

Re: ???

[carptricks]

She was worried about hurting you.

But I think it runs a little deeper than that, too.

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

...I shall see to it that she hears it, then.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

Thanks.

[a small, grateful smile]

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

It is nothing, Kaito.

I do wish to support her, in my own way.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

I know. I think she appreciates it, too.

You guys are close.

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

I know.

It is because we are so different that we can be this close.

Re: ???

[carptricks]

What's the saying? Opposites attract?

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

Precisely.

Which is why you should make a move, before I am successful in my advances. [Trollsmile.]

Re: ???

[carptricks]

[-- CHOKING NOISE and he glances around frantically to make sure Aoko didn't hear that]

She's too young for you. . .!

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

I know. I have found other ways to deal with such emotions.

But she is not too young for the others around here...

Well. I suppose you should be careful. [:D]

Re: ???

[carptricks]

[coughs awkwardly]

C-- careful of what?

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

You do not think you are the only one with an eye on her, do you?

Re: ???

[carptricks]

Who else. . .?

[besides you have you heard things belt do you know something i don't know]

Re: ???

[goodbyenurse]

She spends a large amount of time with her fellow cats, and she is incredibly charming.

If you do not tell her she is wonderful and worth your time, I am certain some other boy will before too long.

I would rather you not do that. It took me entirely too long to even accept you.
