[The SFC when on appears to be sitting on the floor with Chii sitting in the middle of the room, fully in normal clothes and not in the hotel anymore. Though not much has been done in terms of decoration or generally improving the place, but Chii didn't understand she can or want to.]

Saber, Tifa, Fai. Chii found a place to live. [Upon saying that she pauses, her face not breaking into a smile. It was good she found this place all by herself, but it wasn't as interesting adventure as she hoped.] But Chii never lived alone before, Chii isn't fond of it, so Chii is thinking of moving again. [She nods, mostly to herself.]

Shiro, can Chii still take up the offer? Chii doesn't want to think that someone is lonely. [She frowns a tiny bit, she didn't understand truly what loneliness was, but it hurt never the less at least that's what she thinks.] But Chii could help, Chii has seen many hats around, some look like fun to wear. Maybe that could help? [She goes to move away from the device, soon returning holding a funky looking hat.] Chii saw people wearing them and thought Chii should have one too. Would this help Shiro? [She ends this with a tilt of the head and a hat in her hands.]

[Fai smiles at her but he is definitely wary of that hat.]

I'm glad you found a place to live, Chii. But if you don't want to live alone..maybe you can stay with one of us. Or if Shiro is lonely then he definitely would enjoy having you around. [Fai personally wants to keep her close to him but he knows it is best not to smother her. He's trying his best not to cling.]

Be careful of the hat. The hats are not always very good things. They can change who you are.

Chii has never lived alone, so Chii wouldn't know what to do. [She has pretty much been sitting there the whole time, except the occasional going out to have a wander or two.] But it makes Chii miss Hideki as Hideki always helped Chii. [She looks down slightly, but for now she knew she was alone, but with new friends here.]

Shiro offered Chii a place with him, but Chii doesn't know if he still will want to or not. Chii just wants to help. [She nods firmly before looking at the hat, putting it down in front of her and leaning over, mostly to get a closer look.]

This hat is not a good thing?

I'm sure Shiro would be happy to have you. But if you need company before then, I'd be happy to give you some. I know how hard living alone can be.

I think the hats have a spell on them that make people do strange things. It would be better if you just let the hat be alone.

Chii... Has Fai lived alone before then?

People do strange things.... Oh! Someone mentioned that to Chii already, but Chii didn't quite fully understand.

For many many years..[Locked away in a pit of dead bodies. But no one needs to know that part.]

It's complicated but it is something this world is able to do. Do you know what magic is?

Did Fai like being alone? [Pausing before shaking her head.]

Chii doesn't know what magic is.

I didn't like being alone at all. So I understand why you don't.

Magic is a power that some people possess. Things that you don't think people can normally do, can be done using magic. For instance, the magic in that hat will change you into something. Magic can be fun at times, but it also can be dangerous so you have to be very careful when around it.

Chii is sorry to hear that.

Be careful when around magic... Chii has never seen magic, but Chii will keep an eye out.

If I still had my magic I would show you but I'm afraid I don't have it anymore. It can come in many forms and right now its for is that hat. So no matter what you shouldn't put it on. Okay?

[She nodded slightly.]

Chii understands, Chii will put the hat back.

[Fai smiles, glad that chii understands.]

Good! I'm proud of you for listening. If you are lonely, you can always meet up with friends. You don't have to stay in the house.

Meet with friends. That is something Hideki does sometimes.

[Though she never went by herself much before to see others.]

It's a good thing to do! You can go out and explore the bubble, or go to a cafe and just talk, or just go someplace to have fun. You'll get to go out with friends a lot while you are here.

Go out and explore, cake, talk or have fun. These things are things to do. Chii can do them.

Yes you can! And I'm sure you'll have lots of fun with whatever one you want to try. But remember to find someone to do them with because things are always more fun when you have a friend.

[She nods.]

Meet with friends means doing things with friends, Chii wouldn't do them alone.

Right!

Have you learned a lot of good things while you have been here?

Chii has learnt a lot of things that Chii hadn't known before.

[Like a swearword, which she doesn't know is bad.]

Learning can be lots of fun. Hope you have enjoyed finding out about this world. Is there anything I can help you learn more about?

Chii is happy to be learning. Chii gets to understand that way. [She pauses for a moment before shaking her head.] Chii doesn't think so at the moment.

Well just remember, anytime you need help or having any questions all you have to do is call me.

Chill will remember that for when Chii needs to.

I will let you go for now, Chii. Try to find something to do to keep from being lonely. And if you need someone to stay with so you don't get that way, you are welcome to stay at my house.
