She nodded happily. "I hope if Karin shows up you'll be her friend especially. She needs friends! And she'll probably be happy not to be in jail here!" she said, beaming.
"Oh! See Duo was on the Train for a while. I think he showed up when I did and we became friends after...." her smile died, all the life and energy seemed to go out of her and she swallowed hard several times, eyes filming. When she was finally able to talk again, her voice was shaky and quieter. Like speaking at all had become an effort.
"After the first mission..." she managed to get out, rubbing at her arms. "Anyway..." she was trying not to think about that mission. Trying and failing.
"We spent a lot of time together... and I really like him, he's a good friend, even if he did yell at me a lot on the beach that one time..." Remembering that helped some, because it hurt in a different way.
"Then one day..." speaking of hurting... "He didn't show up for food. No one could find him, no one knew where he was... and then..." she swallowed. "His name vanished. When we went to the Station we saw him leave... they all left that way," she whispered, seeing it again. "No one could reach them, they never heard us. He just walked into the mist and was gone. I got back to my room and..." she patted her pockets looking for something.
Life filled her eyes again in the form of panic. "It's gone!" She had it when she arrived here, right? Right?! Didn't she? Did she lose it in the laundry?! OH NO!
