Synopsis: Lacrima has a Talk with Sora about dark magics and choices.
Cast of Characters: Sora Hisakata, Norie Okana


Sora Hisakata has posed:
A little out of the way, in an abandoned warehouse, Sora is sitting on an empty crate. She's sent a text to Norie, asking to talk to the girl. She's dressed in something drab, dour and black, and looking up at the ceiling. She seems a little listless.
Norie Okana has posed:
Lacrima got a text. She looked at it for a few long moments before excusing herself from Jiaying's apartment. Gave an excuse that she wanted to be alone for an hour or so and darted into the night.

Lacrima appears via her usual method of a cloak of black mist as she sighed a bit, running a hand through her purple hair, but otherwise wearing simple casual clothes.

She looked around and let herself hover upwards a bit as she caught sight of Sora. She let herself fall at an angle and land down close to her. in the Warehouse.

"Hello, Sora-chan." she says quietly. "You want to talk. I'm here." she says softly.
Sora Hisakata has posed:
Sore half-smiles, like she doesn't really care enough to smile properly. "Oh, right. I did." She doesn't look towards Norie, doesn't really seem to care what her friend is like right now. "How's Jia doing? I know she's gotten herself hurt a few times, but I don't know how serious it is." That actually shows some genuine concern.
Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana softly sits down on some old empty crate that seems to have one point claimed to contain high end cosmetics. She says. "Jia-chan is good." she says quietly. "She's healing. She got stabbed by someone that decided to take an oppurunity during a recent operation I did for Riventon-san. Though she was on the opposite side of the complex while I was accomplishing my goal."

She frowns. "She's been 'burned' a lot. By a 'Witch' too." she says. She says this in a very pointed manner. "She doesn't like 'The Witch' much." she says.

"She might have a scar across her back because she didn't want to come with me to UMBRA to get looked at." she says quietly.

"Um. You should. See her. Again. Soon." she says quietly.

She seems kind of awkward now. Like she's trying to figure out how to say something.
Sora Hisakata has posed:
Sora still doesn't look at Norie, just peering at the ceiling. "Oh." There's pain and uncertainty in that little syllable, "I don't know if I like 'the Witch' much either." She admits, softly, and her shadow answers, and not subtly, it grows to a much larger size, and the hat its suddenly wearing is a lot like Shiniko's. Sora doesn't appear to notice, or maybe she just doesn't care. "Where do magical girls go if they're hurt? I'm sure there must be some place." Not said, but easily inferred: other than UMBRA.
Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana frowns. "You're asking the wrong person. I had nowhere to go before I met Riventon-san for help." she says quietly.

"You're better off asking Ayana-chan or...." she pauses. About to say 'Ikiko-chan', but she doesn't finish it. "Ayana might know. Really. Anyone else besides me." she asides. She frowns a bit.

She crosses her arms a bit and nrgs. "Sora. Is this what you really want?" she suddenly asks. "To be a stupid creature of darkness like me?" she asks. "To barely be in control of anything?" she asks quietly.

"I'm not judging you." she shakes her head. "I can't. But... I didn't have a choice in the matter. I just got sick and I woke up one day and I was this... thing. No transition. No choices. They were all made for me..." she says quietly.

"You... you do Sora-chan..." she says quietly.
Sora Hisakata has posed:
Sora listens to Norie's attempt to convince her to be different, though for all she looks like she might not be, her gaze still fixed at the ceiling. Until, eventually there's a quiet answer, little more than a whisper. "I have to." She sounds like she believes that. "Things will be better for it, eventually."

Then, she looks straight towards her friend. "And if you don't believe me, you're no friend of mine." There's a harshness to her tone there, and sincerity, she's not leaving any doubt there. "So what is it?"
Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana keeps that neutral frown, but this is more her default resting face one as she shakes her head. "If that's what you think Sora-chan." she says softly. "Then that's what I have to accept." she says. Her opinon doesn't matter here.

There is a very long pause.

"...do you want me to try to find someone that can 'heal' Jia-chan that doesn't work for any of our mutual associates...?" she asks.

"I'll most likely fail. Considering who I can ask will be super weary." she says frankly.

"You might have a better luck asking...."

Well she was gonna say 'Kukai'.

"Well. Sky Jack." she says quietly.

She shakes her head and sighs, staying where she is.

"I just want you to be okay, Sora-chan." she says quietly. "You mean a bunch to Jia-chan you know. Also. Jia blushes a lot when we talk about you." she says.
Sora Hisakata has posed:
"Please do." Sora sighs, and stops looking up, instead looking over towards her friend, revealing just how tired she appears to be. "This wasn't supposed to be this hard, you know?" She says softly, "And... I'm glad the feeling is mutual." She looks down, "I'll try to ask him." She doesn't seem particularly hopeful either.
Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana would go over there to hug, but she doesn't much like physical contact herself nowadays. So she doesn't. She does however get up, walk over and sit besides her. Close enough, she figures.

"Life isn't easy. But I admit. This is a little much." she says softly. "I mean. Not getting a lead role in a dance recital or something. That's what I expected when people said life wasn't easy. Not. 'You're going to turn into Count Chocula's Daughter and hate every minute of it.'" she says completely deadpan.

"I'm sure Kukai will help if you tell him.... the truth. Mostly." he says.

"'My girlfriend keeps getting hurt and I need a place for her to go get healed.'". She insists.

"He'll help. Jerks are like that." she insists.
Sora Hisakata has posed:
"I guess." Sora doesn't say anything else, in fact, she grows exceedingly quiet. Like she's just done talking for now, and doesn't have anything else to say. Her eyes go back to watching the ceiling, like that bland ceiling is the most interesting thing in the area.
Norie Okana has posed:
Norie Okana looks up at the ceiling, nothing there. She looks down to Sora. "Sora. Do you sometimes hear a voice? Or does anything talk to you in your head?" she asks curiously. "I just ask because you look an awful lot like I imagine I do when I talk to my voice right now. Just blankyly staring." she says quietly.

"Or are you thinking of anything specific?" she asks softly.
