fifth bullet :: video
[It's been awhile since this girl showed her face on the Vine in a way that wasn't in a more private conversation with friends. Ever since her breakdown during the last incident, Mami's been scarce; she's had to do a lot of thinking, had to face a lot of painful truths, sorting things out in her head until she could come together again. It was the hardest thing she's had to do thus far- and she almost failed -but now Mami's.....well, not fixed. It's far too soon for that. But she has a reason to hope again, a desire to change, and for the immediate future that will be enough.]
...So. I'm sure most of you have heard about the Queen's "surprise" by now, right? I'm not sure just how worried I should be- she did apologize. Maybe it'll be something harmless. [a weak chuckle] But then, I find it doubtful that she sees us as anything more than dolls she can bump together.
Still, even with everything we're put through, ["I'm not so sure that I want to leave anymore."] this place really can be a second chance for those who need one. It doesn't have to be a prison. I'm...glad that I understand that, now.

[Mami doesn't know where to begin. She's not the type to dive in straight to the heart of important things- no, she's more subtle than that, or possibly just not brave enough. And this is a big deal for her, a big shift away from the routine and the known- necessary, but by no means easy.]
I apologize if this is a bother, but are there any apartments still free in your complex? I was considering a change in housing.
[The words are innocuous on their own, but loaded with an unspoken potential.]

....Can we talk? I know you don't trust me, but this is important.
[Her voice is quiet and serious, without a trace of the usual passive aggressive taunting. This isn't easy for Mami, having to swallow so much pride, knowing that she's relying on a good deal of luck just to get a response. But it's like she told Sayaka- she has to try.]
