phone; filtered from drones

Mm, I have a few things I'd like to say to a few people.

Meiling? I'll admit it. There are a few things you are better at that than I am. You have a proper green thumb and you're excellent around children ( Read more... )

[ It takes her a good long minute to say anything into the receiver after she heard the message. Meiling still isn't feeling her best, but that definitely helped!

--well, if it's sincere. ] Miss Sakuya, are you okay? You don't have a fever, do you? If you do, I'm just going to have to go over there and nurse you back to health!

There's no need for that. I feel perfectly healthy right now.

But you don't sound like... yourself. [ And if you've been droned, maybe whatever gods watch over this place have mercy on the city. ] I mean, it's okay. You can let the other shoe drop. [ "Meiling you are [insert compliment here], HOWEVER..."

You know. THAT shoe. ]

Don't I? If I didn't sound like myself, I'd be calling you by whatever false name this place assigned you. Or I would have felt like I did the other day, when it seems like everyone was droned.

...there is no other shoe. [There would normally be a shoe store full of them, though.]

Oh. [ A pause, still cautious. ] So you don't... like Mayfield, right? Your "kids" and all that, aren't more important to you?

[SHAME THERE ISN'T VIDEO OR ELSE YOU'D SEE HOW HARD SHE'S WRINKLING HER NOSE, CHINA.] ...of course not. Not the drone children.

Good! [ So. Much. Relief.

Well, mostly. ] I mean, not that they should be mistreated or anything, but I know taking care of them bothers you.

That it does. It isn't that I hate children; I'm fine with imouto-sama, even if she's a special case compared to a normal child. But these ones...

Mm, I know. Fortunately, I only have the one to contend with. [ Because if she was alone in a house full of drones... ]

--but I'm getting off topic. Why did you say all those things?

They needed saying.

[ Quietly. ] But I... didn't even do anything to deserve what you said. [ Way to stare a gift horse in the mouth, Meiling. ]

Would you rather I take it all back?

[ Practically tripping over the phone cord over here. ] Ah! N-nNO!

[ Deep breath. More honest than usual for Meiling? Hard to say... ] No, I... liked hearing those things. I'm just not sure I deserve them right now, after all the disappointment.

I wouldn't have said them if you didn't. I'm not the type to give empty praise.

I know you at least that well.

But I haven't told you everything that happened, yet, so you might think differently if I did.

Some things don't change, no matter what a place does.
