Woah it's the first time she's had a thread of her own.

{Somewhere within the quieter hallways of the asylum, the sounds of a small girl crying can be heard echoing out of a small janitors closet who's door was left slightly ajar. This tiny Rin has finally given up on finding her Dressing Room 'family' members, after over a week of searching. This upset coupled with the fact that she can't seem to turn back into her usual feline form has left her hopelessly bawling in the safest room she could find.

She could certainly use some comforting, if you're not doing anything else.}

[He's a bit on edge at the moment, but small girls crying usually aren't harmful things. Besides, Gumi was already slightly ahead of him to look into the closet.]

Onii-sama, look!

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

{As she's unable to hear Gumi, Rini has yet to notice that she is no longer alone. Where was everyone, anyway? Why couldn't she find either of her favorite LenLens, or RinRin?}

[miracaretaker.livejournal.com]

Hey there, are you alright?

[She tries anyway, and after a sigh Gakupo finally speaks for her.]

Excuse me.

{She squeaks in surprise, then hiccups from sucking in air so quickly and attempts to clear her eyes of tears to better see who had spoken to her. It...It sounded like...}

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

C...clacky?

[miracaretaker.livejournal.com]

"Clacky"?

...My name is Gakupo. Are you alright, young miss?

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

{She nods, still sniffling a bit.} Y...You're the man with the clacky shoes, aren't you??

{It's not as easy to tell everyone apart without a feline sense of smell. But the clacky shoe man was older than all the other purple men, so she's pretty sure this is the same one.}

[miracaretaker.livejournal.com]

Oh, I think she means your geta! You do wear those everywhere.

Ah. Yes, I am. But...I don't believe I've met you before, at least to my recollection.

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

{She sniffles a little more in an attempt to clear her tears up entirely, seeming a little more cheerful now. Finally, finally! Someone she knows!}

O-Oh! I'm normally a cat, um, th-the black one? With the orange bow?

My last time-bendy of the event

[justanimitator]

[Len is making his way down the hall slowly-- after so much time spent in this horrible place, he's picked up the trick of not looking in rooms unless he has to-- but that voice... it's familiar]

R-- Rini-san?

[carefully peeks into the room]

Whoo the power of time bending!

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

{She looks up, sniffling with her vision still blurred from her tears. Could that be...?}

LenLen?

[justanimitator]

[it is her! Rini-san really is in this horrible place!

rushing forward now-- is she okay?!]

I-- I was looking for... for you!

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

LenLen!{She hops up to hug and cling to him, still crying but trying to stop.}

I w-was looking for you too o...or RinRin or.... {She sniffles again, forgetting to end her last sentence before starting another.}

I couldn't find anyone!!

[justanimitator]

[clings back, though doing a better job right now not crying]

Rin-san and... and Len-san a-- are here too! Rin-san is, um, looking for... for you too!

I'm glad I found you.

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

Me too, I don't like it here! {More sniffling.}

They're really here some place?

[justanimitator]

[hesitantly pats the top of Rini's head... it will make her feel better, right?]

I-- it is scary! And... and bad...

[so many strange and upsetting things have happened since he woke up for the first time in that horrible room, too]

They are! I-- I found Len-san in the cafeteria, but... but I think he might be sick. He was talking funny a-- and didn't eat. Rin-san's in the kitchen, cooking for everyone.

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

{The head pat did seem to help a bit, she's almost stopped crying now.}

Big LenLen is sick? Oh no!

Well...at least you and RinRin are okay.

oh gosh, I have to.

[was_no_monster]

[right in all of my big brother pings. SURELY INVESTIGATING IS NOT A BAD IDEA, right? crouching down to make himself look smaller and knocking gently on the door, not wanting to startle her]

Why are you crying, little one?

Pffft

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

{No matter how small you make yourself look, it won't help you with this one. She's somehow managed to scoot all the way to the back of the closet in the single surprised moment it took to see which Kaito was talking to her.}

Stitchy! G-Go away!!

[was_no_monster]

[covering his mouth to avoid blurting an error message at her and scooting back as well. not as planned 8(]

Ah, I— s-sorry! I heard you crying from down the hall, I was just- I wanted to help.

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

Nuh-uh! {She sniffles and wipes her face with her arm in an attempt to look less helpless and more intimidating.}
You w-were probably gonna try and put me back in a room!

[was_no_monster]

I wasn't— I promise. I'm not one of the orderlies; I've been trying to help people get out.

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

You arrested big LenLen and put him in a cage! {Now she is going to pout very intimidatingly at you.}

[was_no_monster]

... Aah. I only did that because if I hadn't, that Len would have hurt someone else. It's my job to try to make sure nobody gets hurt because of something another person does.

[ashes-sehsa.livejournal.com]

{You would think hurting people would be high on the list of things that would concern small children, but with this one not so much.}

It still made RinRin sad!

Hmph! Even after he was nice and sewed you up that one time.
