Rebel 24 [Action/Written]

[not_meatbuns]

[Early this morning, before the sun has really broken through the thick clouds outside, Litchi starts awake. Absolutely everything aches terribly, but she's alive. Every breath is rattling slightly and her lungs aren't terribly cooperative, but they're working. Not that she actually remembers dying, but... the last thing she can remember is Noel approaching her in the woods and then everything went black. And she knows it can't have been good.

...Oh, god, Noel. She has to be alright, right? She... she couldn't have...

Litchi tries to get a look around herself, but all she can tell is that she's in a bed somewhere. And there's someone next to her, but without her glasses, she can't make out any details. But this feels familiar... whoever it is, she has a feeling it's someone she knows.

But, as much as she wants to try to slip away and make sure Noel wasn't harmed, she also doesn't want to wake up her slumbering companion. Especially considering that she can't see at all; she knows she wouldn't get far. But oh god, what if...

No, no. Panicking won't do any good. Just calm down, wait for a good chance to slip away. Even though Litchi isn't sure how far her legs will carry her with how achey and watery they feel.

...Just where is she, anyhow? Where are her glasses? Lao Jiu? And... why can't she sense the Boundary at all anymore?]

---

[And later on, once she's had a chance to get her bearings, Litchi makes a note in her journal. Her handwriting is much sloppier than it usually is, but she really couldn't trust herself to make it through with a steady voice, so... written it is.]

Everyone... I don't think I can ever apologize enough for what happened. I never meant for it to go so far.

I can promise that it will never happen again.

i'm so sorry.

[[ooc: She's waking up in Thirteen's bed, but after that, action threads for House 48 are a-okay. ♥]]

[Oh, Tsubaki. Somehow that just breaks her heart even more to hear.]

To be honest, I don't feel too wonderful. But I have to admit that it's an improvement from before.

Do you need anything?

[Supplies? Medicine? Someone to watch Wuthering Heights with and forget the weight of the world? Just say the word.]

[Tsubakiiii. ;_; She loves you. And is tearing up over here.]

Thank you for the offer, but I think I'll be alright for now.

Although some company a little later might be nice. [Like... once she's managed to stop getting teary-eyed from guilt trips.]

I'll come and see you whenever you'd like.

It's still House 48, isn't it? [Home. ;_;]

[not_meatbuns]

Yes. House 48.

[...] It'll be wonderful to see you again, Miss Yayoi.

[When Tsubaki first returned to Luceti, all that mattered was completing her mission and being left alone.

But that hasn't really been going so well. And truth be told... she sort of misses her House 48 foster family.

...]

Likewise. I'll see you soon, then.
