Fifteenth Case

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ not too far from the inn, Kazuha is taking inventory of... a bunch of omamori and various assorted charms. ]

Mmm... it feels like a lot more people need these than the last time I did this. But I didn't think I'd still have all of these from the trips and the time Heiji got sick and everything... I was going to give the innkeeper one, too, but... maybe Ai-chan will want one.

-- Aha, I remember these! They were supposed to be for good luck and keeping anything bad from happening, and this one was for getting lost, but I bought that one before I came here.

... Obviously didn't work.

((Just strolling through fuck-my-canon lane, but if you're a friend of hers and you haven't gotten an omamori yet or you just feel like chilling with her, feel free to hit her up.))

*looking at her trying to figure out what he can do-- if he even needs to do anything at this point*

[ she's just a little paler than usual, s'all :( ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... *putting his hand on her forehead*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ FRIGID-- I mean, blinking up at him ] ...?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... *and now she'll get a half-hug*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ hesitating for a minute-- and then just wrapping both her arms around him and clinging ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*... there it is.

pulling her over and holding her close now*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ probably trembling by this point, and most definitely not letting go ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

There, there... *will begin to rub her back and the like now*

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

I'm okay....

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

It's gonna be okay. I promise.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ nodding into his... shirt ]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

*pulling her closer* You want to try sleeping?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

I don't know if I can.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... *nods* I'll just stay like this, then.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

... Sorry. It really isn't that bad.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

Sorry? What're you sorry for?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

... You were worried, weren't you?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... Doesn't matter.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

That's a yes.
