---

Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana- as... Norie. For the first time in a long while. Arrives at Jiaying's apartment window and steps in. She looks around and calls out. "Hello... Jia-chan?" looking around. She walks over to the futon she's been calling home and sitting down on it, as she pulls over her backpack.

She begins to packs the things she's left here.

She waits to see if Jiaying answers or not as she does. If not, she'll go for her phone in a moment or two.

Jiaying Maki has posed:
Jiaying Maki sits up from the pile of blankets on ehr bed and makes a few funny sounds as she tries to get her head in a coherent state. Pulling the blanket from over her ears, she asks, "What's going on?" Wondering why Norie's come in through the window.

Then she watches Norie pack things and asks, "Leaving then?"

Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana packs her laptop and sassy vampire books as she looks up. "Ah there you are." she says softly. She gently pauses softly.

"Sachi-chan woke up." she says quietly.

"I'm.. relived? I think. At least." she says. Norie sounds perfectly neutral. Which is usually as good as she gets.

"I decided to go home. I'm tired. of.. missing. Of being alone." she says quietly.

"Do you pay attention to the news?"

"I'm sorry I didn't come to you first. I just. I went from the hopsital. To the police office." she says quietly.

Jiaying Maki has posed:
Jiaying Maki rubs her eyes and stifles a yawn before pulling the cover back up over her ears. "I've been here all night. Tried chasing something down the other night and made a mistake." She then leans forward and asks, "Are you going to be okay?" Before flopping back on the bed and wriggling around before appearing on the other side wearing some comfy looking PJs.

"You went to the police station...?" She scowls, "What did you tell them, no names right?" Since she really doesn't want to have to deal with that kind of a mess at this date and time.

"Are we going to hang out tsill at least?" What, she's gotten used to it.

Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana head tilts. "Huh? No. I told them. Mostly the truth."

She says quietly. "That I ran away because I was confused, and scared." she says. "But they think I was a few prefectures over." she says. "And no I didn't use your name or anyone elses names." she says.

"But that is the truth. I was confused and scared and worried and sad." she says quietly. "I'm just not saying anything else." she says.

She blinks and walks over and shakes her head. "What? No. Of course we can! I just. May be staying at home for the next few days before I go back to school." she says. "But we're still friends Jia-chan." she says softly. "Always." she says.

"I just. I wanna be home. And... I'll need your help.. and support anyways..." she says quietly.

"I've decided I need to tell my brother. The truth. and. I want you there. To help." she says quietly. "Okay?..." she says.

Jiaying Maki has posed:
Jiaying Maki shrugs after a moment and starts fishing around on her desk for a hairband, using it to tame most of her hair for the time being. She then pokes around trying to find socks and various other things so she can at least escort Norie home. "If you're going to tell him, should I just drop a ghost in with us and no illusion? Makes it easier to believe right?"

Then she stops and glances to Norie, "Are you going to be okay? I can leave my phone on in case you need something."

She considers quietly and adds, "Are you still going to try and make peace with the other you?"

Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana shakes her head. "I'm not sure about the other me." she says softly. "I'm going to take this one step at a time." she says softly.

"No. I want you to come in with me normally. If he won't belive me, then we show him the things and hope he doesn't faint or go crazy." she says softly.

She sighs again. "Worse case scenario I just. Brain wipe the last few moments during the discussion." she laments frumpily.

Jiaying Maki has posed:
Jiaying Maki shrugs after some thought and says, "That's not any fun though." Then she finds her chair and settles down on it and rests her chin on her hand while saying, "Well. It could be worse right? I doubt he'll go crazy. Most people try to pet me. Which annoys me, but it's nice too. But it's so demeaning. But it's nice..."

Then she quickly shakes her head, "We'll find out the hard way."

Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana frowns. "I don't like being touched." she says quietly. It's not something she's loudly admitted before. "I mean. I dunno if that'd been the case. Before I was a vampire. But I don't like being touched. And... I don't. Like hugs. I mean. Hugging is important. So I deal with it and I DO remember that much from when I was still a human." she says softly.

She head tilts. "Do they ask first?" she wonders aloud.

Jiaying Maki has posed:
Jiaying Maki shrugs once more and says, "Hugs are nice. So are other things, I didn't know you didn't like being touched." She yaaaaawns, showing off the sharp teeth and continues, "They do usually, some just have that look too though, you know? I guess it wouldn't be awkward if I could shift into a fox like mom, but that's harder than it sounds." Not for a lack of trying.

"Just uh... be careful I guess. Don't flashy thing him too much."

Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana shakes her head. "I.. trust. My brother. That he won't freak out." she says softly. "I mean, it can go wrong still." she nods matter of factly. "And... making someone forget the last 'five minutes' is a specialty of mine I have down to a science at this point." she insists.

She shakes her head. "Just. Touching.. contact. I associate it with. Feeding? Now." she says quietly. "Because I need to touch to do that." she says.

"So I am afraid." she says. "and it makes me uncomfortable because I don't like feeding." she says.
