[ friends; written ]

[ the writing is a little messy because she scribbled it down while falling asleep. ]

It's Uru and I'm alright. I'm sorry for worrying you all.

[ ADDED IN AFTER: ]

A man named Two-Face was holding me [ there's a long pause here. ] hostage. But it's resolved for now.

I'm not really a person. I used to be, but...a long time ago-- sorry. It's not a very good thing to talk about, I think.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ staring... ]

How did you find out?

[siebter.livejournal.com]

Felix helped me...something about remembering everything that I forgot. And one of my friends came here and told me what happened.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

Oh! You went to see Felix-san. Did he not remove the curse?

[ tilting her head. ]

Who's your friend?

[siebter.livejournal.com]

It's not a curse. I know that now-- it's just...what I am.

[ A bit of a pause, then, a bit brighter: ]

His name's Weiss! He's really smart and uses big words a lot.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

But you said you were human once...

[siebter.livejournal.com]

[ He nods. ]

There were scientists that were using magic to create weapons...or, one weapon. That was my sister, Halua. But they couldn't control her, so they had to create a weapon to seal her.

...and that was me.

[ oh my god but... emil is a child. or... he looks like one, at least! no, forget that. he's mentally a young boy.

and people did this to him? ]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

Emil...

[siebter.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. It must be really scary to hear something like that, right? I just...thought it would be better if you knew.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

No... I'm sorry I couldn't help you see.

[ ... ]

And for what those scientists did to you.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

...you're not afraid of what I am?

[ askfdl sounds...kind of near-tears rn. ]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ oh, no babby. she places her hand on his head again. ]

Then I would have to be afraid of everyone here, but I'm not.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

Thank you...

[ Lowering his head now; even with the bandages, it's probably still a little bit obvious that he is crying; despite being as old as he is, he doesn't have the emotional fortitude of someone older than he looks. ]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ she actually starts laughing and ruffles his hair again. ]

See? How can you not be a person when you have these feelings? Crying makes you human... or at least, not a weapon, but a living, breathing person.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

But I'm not. I can't be.

I'm just...Number 7.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

Do you want to be just Number 7?

[siebter.livejournal.com]

No...

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

There you go!

[siebter.livejournal.com]

So...it's okay?

[ A little surprised that it's like that, on some level. ]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

Of course!

[siebter.livejournal.com]

Thanks. It really does mean a lot-- but I still want to be able to help if I can. Even though I'm like this for a reason that isn't so good, if anything happened...I'd want to be able to protect you.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

Thank you... I'm really lucky to have such kind friends.

[siebter.livejournal.com]

I don't think it's luck...you're a really nice person, so of course people like you!

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ she pauses. ]

I'm glad!
