[ 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.

Of course. You worry about yourself now, it can't have been easy for you.

[ e...vading time. ]

It's fine. I wasn't -- [ scared? okay, she was... ] It wasn't that bad. He mostly spoke to himself.

[toughest.livejournal.com]

Still, you must have been scared.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

... A little.

[toughest.livejournal.com]

It's alright if it was more than a little, you know.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ awkward silence :( ]

[toughest.livejournal.com]

[Have a pat on the head, Uru.]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

I've been here over a year and I still don't feel any braver... [ it's kind of embarrassing when a ten year-old is braver than you. ]

[toughest.livejournal.com]

That's nothing bad. There are things that will always be scary no matter what.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

You don't get scared, do you?

[toughest.livejournal.com]

Not easily.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ pause. ]

What makes you scared?

[Pauses and tilts his head a little as he considers.]

[Though really, he doesn't even have to think about it. He knows what he's scared of, it's just a matter of voicing it or not.]

... Like when you went missing.

[ her expression falls and she looks at her lap again. sometimes, she wished she was different -- stronger or anything so this wouldn't have happened. ]

I'm sorry.

[toughest.livejournal.com]

Stop apologizing, it's not your fault.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ WELL SHE CAN'T HELP IT, OKAY. :( ]

[toughest.livejournal.com]

Uru. [Leaning over to peer at her face.]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ she doesn't look away but she doesn't look at him either. ]

Yes?

[toughest.livejournal.com]

No more apologizing and blaming yourself, okay?

[ almost says sorry again but she catches herself just in time. she looks at jason with a tiny smile. ]

Thank you. It means a lot to me, really.

[toughest.livejournal.com]

[He smiles back.]

Do we have a deal then?

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ nodding. ]

Alright.

[toughest.livejournal.com]

Good. [A pause before he gets to his feet.]

You should get some rest.
