Week 2, Post-Investigation: Shinshin

[withsadness]

[He obviously, uh, made a bit of a scene there with the body announcement so maybe it's dangerous to be around him right now, but...also, they had the same friends. And Mary doesn't want to leave him alone. So, as soon as there's a good time to, she's going to go find him. She's spending most of the night inside the burned remains of Hits 'n' Giggles, but if he's not around there, she'll look around until she can find him.]

Shinshin?

[Mary'll just...approach with caution!]

[ He doesn't remember his name, but he remembers when he was a child, lost and alone, looking for the warmth of parents he could never see again.

He wraps Mary in the same warmth. ]

I won't.

[withsadness]

[It's the sort of warmth that she hasn't felt in...actually, she's not sure if she's ever felt it. Maybe the touch of paintbrush on a canvas, creating soft skin with each stroke of the bristles. But that's far away, barely a memory. And this is right here, so fresh she could cry. But Mary doesn't cry, not really, she just holds on tighter.]

Thank you.
