[While everyone else has been busy with wrestling bl00bl00ds or finding other ways to pass the time, Maka has been straightening up a certain place. Mostly involving cleaning it top to bottom and removing or putting old items in storage. When the video clicks on, one will see Maka in what looks like a beat up old shirt and shorts, rather than her characteristic skirt. The pigtails aren't even there, her hair is tied back with a kerchief, another one of which she is using to wipe her forehead.

Without missing a beat, she waves to the camera and smiles brightly.]

Hi! Rin, Masaru, I've finished cleaning up the villa. We can move in at any time. [A pause as she fusses with the kerchief tying back her hair for a moment and realizes that Masaru may have not gotten the news.] Masaru, we've got a new place to live now, there will be a lot more space and you can do whatever you want with it. I hope that's okay with you.

[Moving on, Maka takes a deep breath and sets her expression to properly inquisitive, as all good students should be.]

Everyone, this is a weird question but at what age do people usually get married in your world? [Her expression turns exasperated for a moment as she realizes this is, indeed, a very weird question and certain assumptions can be made--] I'm not asking because I want to get married, I'm not looking for trouble. It's just that in my world people tend to get married really early because of the circumstances there. My parents themselves got married when they were eighteen...but I guess what's true for my world isn't true for others?

You just have to move on. Life keeps going, and you can't just stop... especially if you have children. That's why I'm thankful... without my children, I fear I'd be completely lost.

Ehehe...yeah, you're right, no sense in moping about it.

Right. It's not easy not to mope, but you have to be strong, because there's always someone who's depending on you.

...Yeah.

[Oh Missus Briz, if only you knew who she's thinking of with that. (Spoilers: It's you among other folks.)]

...That aside... I think, someday, you would make a very good mother, Maka. Not any time soon, of course, you're much too young! But a little later, I think you would do very well with it.

Eh...?

[No what. Seriously. Her?]

I...

[SERIOUSLY. HER?

But she can't argue with it. So she just...silently freaks out at the idea.]

Thank...you...?

You're a very loving and responsible girl! Don't look so confused.
