[Kaori and Frey were still not speaking to each other much, nor had they been home very often since the whole fiasco involving Mithos during the weekend. One could even safely assume that they have been avoiding each other, something that their other housemates could have picked up on. Today had been nor different from the last few

[Don't mind him listening in on those conversations up there, just long enough to get an idea of what's going on anyways, before moving on to something else.

Frey is gone, then? That's...

Unfortunate is probably the wrong word. Anyone leaving here is a good thing, no matter what people may say otherwise.

It's a shame he didn't get to know him better though.]

Kaori? Hey, what's wrong?

[seiriald]

Ventus? [The surprise from hearing his voice again is enough to temporarily distract her from her grief, so use it well.]

[risingwinds]

Yeah, it's me.

[Poor Kaori. Ven's trying to sound upbeat, despite the circumstances. He's definitely worried, though.]

[seiriald]

Hi... [She's... happy to hear from him, really, but it doesn't last long. He had a knack for showing up when she was on the verge of an emotional breakdown, didn't he?]

[imatreenow]

[...Mithos is almost hesitant to reply, after that last conversation, when he had just left. He's still hurt, still confused, but...she sounds so broken. There's something painfully familiar about it. Despite everything, he can't ignore it.]

...Kaori? [Had Frey hurt her? Vindictive anger flares up. Maybe things could start making sense again...]

[voice - filtered]

[seiriald]

[Kaori had been left just as hurt as he was, probably, albeit in a different way. Regardless of what happened the last time they spoke, though, to say she wasn't a little bit happy and relieved to hear from him again would be inaccurate. But they're just fleeting sentiments, because... he had been angry with her because she was with Frey, hadn't he? Did that mean... he would be happier now?]

Mithos, I... [I need you.]

[imatreenow]

[all the uncertainty is pushed down beneath the surface, overtaken by growing anger.] What did he do?! [because he must have done something, for her to sound this hurt.]

[voice - filtered]

[seiriald]

... He's gone. [Plain and simple, that's all there is to it. She can't bring herself to say anything more than that right now.]

[tsuntrader]

[What's going on over here? Silver glances in the doorway, and-

-And Frey's things are gone. Kaori's upset. That's what happens when someone leaves, isn't it? Even their things disappear.

...It isn't really his place to be here, and he should probably leave Kaori alone... But he decides against it, opting to hover in the doorway instead. He's not sure what he should do, but... He doesn't just want to leave her alone.]

[seiriald]

[Kaori appreciates his presence, at least. It was hard to be alone in a room that she was supposed to be sharing with the person she considered her brother, whom she may very well never get to see again. She won't say much, occasionally fiddling with what feels like pieces of paper to her; Jana had gotten to tearing up the box of letters Frey had left behind before anyone could read them.]

[tsuntrader]

[He'll stay in this room like she stayed in his, then, at least until a decent amount of time passes or she decides to say or do something.]

[seiriald]

[It's leaning more toward a decent amount of time passing when she finally stands up and becomes fully aware of the fact that Silver has been in the room this whole while. It had been.. nice of him, she wouldn't know for sure how she would react to anything he would have said or done.]

Silver...?
