this might sound silly but could i have a hug?

[ She's not really directing this at anybody in particular. She just found out parts of her family are no longer here and she's ... not handling it too well. She'll take a hug from anyone willing to give one. ]

[ Italy waves in return, though much more excited than she seemed to be. Then again, he has a box full of cheer to make that frown turn into a smile. ]

Hi, hi! I'm Italy~

[He switches to video so she can see what he looks like.]

You're welcome. I'll be there soon.

[ It is. She's right. It's terrible, and it's all he's been feeling for the last few thousand years. But... he can't say that. Not out loud, and certainly not to a human. ]

Do you really want me to come?

:33 < i will be there in just a few minutes!
:33 < dont go anywhere!

...look, I can understand if you're not well, but I don't even know your name.

Yeah... I know the feelin'.

[He pulls away to lead her in to the kitchen. There's a pitcher of lemonade out on the counter and a few clean glasses. He doesn't really bother asking her if she wants some, just pouring her a drink and sliding it over. If she doesn't want it, it's no big deal, but he figures something a little distracting might help even a tiny bit.]

At least we're still here.

[Bianca simply just lets out a smile. She was still sitting on the sofa and patting her back.]

Hm...I don't think I know who they are but their names are pretty familiar... [She was familiar with someone named Gracia...]

It hurts doesn't it? You know that your friends might be safer back home but...you really want them to stay too.

This place doesn't care who stays and goes, I'm sure you're aware of that.

[One day, she will teach all of you about Japanese emoticons. For now though, it doesn't seem to be particularly important, as she understands the reciprocation just fine. So . . .

Yeah, she'll just cut straight to the point.]

did you wnt to talk about it?

I'm a troll from Alternia.
I've spent a lot of time trying to come to a cross-cultural understanding!
My name's Feferi, BTW! 38)

[That's cool. Gamzee is a clown of patience and hugs. Lots of hugs! Which he will happily impart on anyone who seems just a bit down.

Which kinda means he ends up hugging two locals out of nowhere before realizing he hasn't got the right person in front of him --at least those locals are chill, they never mind anything what he does. Gamzee likes them loads-- but that's cool. Can't just give up, you know.

A little more spying around finally brings her to view. And yeah, she's looking like a motherfucker in need of a hug. He approaches, coming to a halt in front of her, leaning down a little to compensate for the height difference.]

Now there is a motherfuckin' face what got 'needs a motherfuckin' hug' put on it in them big fuckin' letters what my bro does favour all the time.

i wouldnt have offered it if i didnt mean it

its up to you though

i wont force you if you dont think it will work out for the best

Mhm ...

[ Though she's not sure just how safe any of them would be. She didn't know about Gracia, but Mitsuhide had told her a little bit about Motochika back home ... there was nothing for him to return to. And without Motochika, Mitsuhide would be so sad ...

Needless to say, she's worried about all of them. Gracia did seem to make the best out of every situation, though, so maybe ... ]

I may never see them again ...

[ She clings to Bianca a little more, more tears rolling down her cheeks. ]

S-Someday, it might happen to you, too ... you might leave this place. Or I might, and leave you here ... and neither of us would have any say in it. And we might not remember each other, when we return home ...

[ She can't stop crying. Crap, she ... can't stop crying. ]

I don't ... I don't want to forget, Bianca ...

What about your roommates?

[ She'll take it, gladly. Thanks, baby bro. Though, her mind is obviously elsewhere even still. She nods. ]

But for how long ...

[ She didn't mean for it to come out like that. She didn't want to be so negative about any of this, not after giving Rin a pep talk about the exact same thing a while back. ]

M'Sorry.

[ She'll just take a sip of her lemonade and shut up now. ]

[ Kohaku bows a little, politely. ]

Kohaku Hearts. It's nice to meet you.

ok

[ And true to her word, she is waiting in the plaza. ]

kohaku hearts

[ she remembers you, old man, but she's not expecting you to remember her. she's been through this whole song and dance before. ]

i am kohaku

its very nice to meet you feferi

Does everyone here just have strange names?

[ Kohaku is actually quite confused by everything you say, Gamzee. But she's going to take that to mean 'you're getting a hug,' which is exactly what she's receiving from him.

And, despite barely knowing him, she can't help but hug him back, tightly. She did say she needed the hug, and damn it all, she really does need it. ]

Thanks ...

[ For going out of your way to give her a hug. She really does appreciate it, man. ]

I know. It could happen to anybody. It could happen to you, or me, and we would have no say in the matter at all.

And we would forget this place even existed, and forget all of the people we had come to know and love.

I've been here for over a year and a half, now ... There's just so much I don't want to lose ...

[ She catches that glimpse of him, and then finds a place in the plaza to sit down and wait for him. Every so often, she's looking around to see if she sees anybody who looks like the guy on the video feed. ]

i dunno

[ The things she could talk about are the same things Yukari herself has probably experienced many times during her time here. ]

i dont think they will mind but i will bring it up with them first if you want to move in with us
