[ hehe it's nice... like being bundled in a mental hug. ]
We'll have to make sure you get your fill, then.
[ he's going to pspspsps some kittens for their attention. and also a baby sheep. and also a puppy. and also a couple rabbits. and also whatever else he can attract... (he doesn't have to try very hard tbh.)
...some finches land on his shoulder and in his hair in the meantime, and lailah can probably sense another bubble of warmth from him. just like home... ]
[ this is so wholesome they are just animal crossing flowers emote every time they hang out... ]
It does make me a little bit nostalgic for home. Of course, wild animals are different. [ how to explain that everyone who isn't a high school girl is a bipedal dog or cat or raccoon... but also pets still exist. ] But where I come from, most civilians are either robots or animals.
[ THEY REALLY ARE SO WHOLESOME... but what if... she shared... a dramatic memory... (a cute one is okay too... looks around for reflective surfaces...)
ALSO WHAT. this took me out i love being canonblind.
there's a pretty obvious blip of surprise on jy's end. ultimately he's from a sci-fi franchise, so these things aren't unheard of, he just wouldn't have anticipated it for lailah at all. ]
Really? Is there a reason there are fewer humans? [ more broadly, ] What is your home like, outside the Sisterhood?
[ i would so dearly love to share a dramatic memory but she's such a side character that even when she is present for dramatic plot points it's just like (*and lailah was there too!) but. sweats. looks around. there's probably a bunch of pretty big water spots for the animals???? HELP ]
Oh, there are still plenty of humans too. Of all kinds. [ you know. all the kinds of humans. normal. kemonomimis. demons. angels. ] It's just—only the students who are human. And Sensei.
[ she will not be able to elaborate on why. you can ask, but she doesn't know. that's just the way it works because. ]
I'm from Kivotos. It's a city that's home to thousands of different academies. And the school I attend is Trinity. Compared to other schools we're a bit traditional, but very successful and less chaotic than others. We try to keep our grades up and uphold peace where we can.
[ ALKSJLKJ A WATER TROUGH YEAH!! or a little pool for splashing around in maybe... 🥺
but hmm... her world is starting to sound more and more... like his?? there are robotfolk, angelic people (robin), the furries of course, etc... ]
Do these other schools instigate combat more often? Or do they choose another method of chaos? [ YOUR GUNFIGHTS... but otherwise that does sound fitting for lailah, actual saint... ]
It's common for there to be a few shootouts a day at any school... [ obviously. ] But some schools are worse than others.
Gehenna, for example. Things have always been difficult between our schools. Then there are delinquent students and gangs that like to cause a ruckus. You know how it is.
[ he probably doesn't!!! luckily... a convenient memory plays out... in the fucking water trough. here, from 40:03 to 44:14. and not that it matters but sensei is there... the player character... ]
[ in the water trough... IT'S A VERY HEARTWARMING MEMORY THOUGH, even if i hate that sensei is a man because of course he is. jing yuan watches on fondly, regardless... and she can feel a pleasant surprise when he hears her called by her actual name. ]
Sister Hinata...
[ he smiles at her when he says it. ]
...Not that I doubted it, but you really were already doing the same work before you arrived here. [ she is such a good!!!! helping people turn over a new leaf, etc. ]
Were those girls able to settle in all right at the cathedral? ...And were you able to locate what you were looking for? [ glue...? ]
[ it's fine, they consistently use they/them pronouns for sensei in the game and they only got this moe man design for the anime. in my heart they're still nb. (this game is not progressive like that but i will just pretend like a delusional person.)
anyway, his fondness mirrors back at hearing him say her real name. lailah is just fine too, but it's nice to be known. ]
Decently enough, though... They are still prone to picking small fights elsewhere.
[ but that's to be expected. it takes delinquents time to settle in and calm down. ]
And—yes! We managed to gather everything we had been sent to find. Somehow. It was a long, long day, but Ui needed the supplies to repair some important documents.
[ reflexively petting this puppy...... this helps.... ]
Sensei had replaced the book with a decoy until we could finish the repairs. And the only book they had on them... They had confiscated from another girl, and... Oh, I can't even say what it was.
It would have been the end of the Sisterhood's good reputation if we hadn't pulled through in time.
[ the sisterhood does not. have a good reputation. ]

Old habits die hard, hmm? But, I am glad it seems to be working out so far.
[ curiously, ]
Important documents...? How were they destroyed in the first place?
no subject
I dropped them. And then when I went to pick them up they fell right apart. They were so old they practically crumbled to dust in my hands.
no subject
...It happens to the best of us. Were you able to repair the documents, in the end? What were they...?
[ how old is old... ]
no subject
We really had to scramble to repair it in time. And to swap it out with the temporary replacement we had left.
[ thinking about this makes her want to implode with embarrassment but it's fine ]

Oh dear.
[ AGAIN TRYING NOT TO FEEL ANYTHING AT HER EXPENSE BUT HER EMBARRASSMENT IS JUST. SO CLEAR. ]

How perilous. Did you end up attending that event, yourself?
[ and if so was she just sweating the entire time ]
no subject
But I suppose you could call that attending.
[ aaaaaaaaa ]
