[Well, here's a sight. Marisa is sitting perfectly still, lightly petting her Jolteon's head as she tosses a Fire Stone lightly in a bored fashion. She's sitting inside a plain room, just staring out the window before turning and stopping her tossing of the stone.]

I really dunno what ta make of everythin' that's happened...at least what I've heard and seen. I'm not a fan of what's goin' on but...a part of me is a little curious I have ta say.

[A slight frown and a glance at the stone in her hand.]

I know I picked this up, thinkin' it'd help out but...I really can't use it. It's just...I can't describe it. I'm thinkin' about givin' it away.

[A shrug of her shoulder before putting it down on her backpack, that sits next to her, it's contents still scattered about.]

Eh, Either way, I'll be on my way out of here before too long. Anyone know a good spot ta hide out for a bit?

[At this point, it isn't even about Reimu being tired of being the only human living at the shrine. The miko's honestly just worried about her best friend, and pretty tired of this situation in general too. Still, she perks up subtly at what Marisa says and nods.]

Alright. I'll see you then.

[There is a nod before the band's video goes off. Marisa really wants that nap at this point..

But true to her word, that night she's at the shrine, with her normal backpack..but also a duffel bag. A little different then what she usually takes with her but...]

Hey Reimu, where ya at?

[As soon as Marisa shut off her warp band, Reimu went to make herself some tea to calm herself down. Then she saw to her Pokemon and finished any minor chores around the shrine she hadn't done yet while she thought about things.

She was pretty calm by the time Marisa showed up, opening the door when the witch called out to her.]

Ah, Marisa. There you are. Come in, I already made tea. [Well, technically she made more, but that didn't matter. She did notice the duffel bag, but she's not going to ask about that at the moment.]

[Trying to pretend like nothing happened on the warp band....Which she knows won't work but for right now, normal is nice.]

Hey, Thanks. Ya want me ta put my stuff down first? Unless this is a 'Nice knowin' ya' tea.

[Teasing, trying to be normal.]

[Reimu notices that and decides to play along for the moment. She just snorts.]

Of course it isn't. Go ahead then.

[With that, she turns and lets Marisa into the shrine. She won't actually say anything until Marisa's put her stuff away and they've had a chance to settle.]

[That just gets her to grin like normal and giggle a little.]

Thanks again Reimu...I don't think I've ever said that enough in all honesty.

[She follows the miko inside, taking a detour to the room she usually took over to drop off her bags, hat and broom. Once that was done, she made her way back to where she was supposed to go. Still being normal..although she had a feeling it was about to go away.]

So....What's been goin' on?

[This gets a small, brief, smile in response.]

It's fine. We're friends after all.

[She goes and pours the tea and sets it on either side of the table while Marisa puts her stuff away and then sits down on her end as Marisa comes back.]

Not a whole lot. It's as quiet as usual around here.

[And speaking of that... Well, first she takes a sip of her tea once Marisa sits down, then she speaks again.]

So, how long are you staying this time?

[As she comes back and sits down, she actually has a response to that.]

Ya never had ta, even as a friend.

[But she's going to take a drink at the question. She really just had not figured it out..Even if deep inside she wanted to stop running and stay in one place.]

..I really don't know.. I..I'm thinkin' about it. I know what I want ta do...just dunno how I wanna deal with it.

[Reimu just shrugs at that.]

I guess not, but someone has to.

[Of course that's not all. Marisa's her oldest and closest friend, and is maybe one of the most important people in her life right now, so she's willing to do more for her than she would for most others. It's a little hard for her to articulate that for some reason.]

And, well... I want to.

[Alright, there. That's better. She felt like she needed to say that, even if it had taken a few moments staring down at her tea to get it out.

In response to Marisa's answer to her question though.]

... You can stay here for as long as you want, you know. Until you can figure something out. Like I said before, I don't really mind.

[There is a more normal smile from Marisa hearing that. She thought she knew most of the things about her best friend..but she keeps getting surprised.]

We just stick together no matter what huh? Bad times and stupid things.

[There is a bit of a laugh as she leans back on her hands for a moment.]

Alright..I ain't goin' ta argue that. But I'll figure somethin' out..Although..What if I took ya up on stayin', What then?

[At the moment, just curiosity.]

[This gets another smile from Reimu too, as she takes another sip of her tea and nods.]

Heh, yeah.

[Though at Marisa's question, the miko looks down at her tea again as she answers.]

... I don't think I'd mind that either.

[Marisa's quiet, usually never a good sign but she's thinking of something other then being a pain in the ass for once.

Heh, even with all the crap I end up doin'? I'll keep that in mind. Just remember what me stayin' around usually entails.

[Pranks and her just being a brat. But The good things always come hand in hand with the bad with her.]

[Reimu snorted at that. It was true that Marisa really could be a pain sometimes. Still, that was just how Marisa was. It was annoying, but she'd been dealing with it for years already.]

Yeah, I know... You can be a real headache sometimes, but I guess I could learn to live with it though.

[Yeah, thinking about it, having Marisa around all the time instead of just off and on would probably end up driving her up the wall, but... at least the shrine wouldn't be so empty anymore. She wasn't sure she was ready to say that out loud though. She still wasn't sure how to deal with feeling like that to start with.]

[A smile and a nod.]

If ya are so sure, okay. I should know in a few days, ya know me..It's one of my better options so ta speak. Although heading out of town still is on the consideration.
