[The sky is dark. It's not that the sky has turned grey. You just can't see the sky.

Two enormous trees, now utterly bare of leaves, rise over the landscape.

On the ground, angels tear wildly at each other, or drift aimlessly.

V/V turns the camera on herself. It's obvious that she's been crying.]

I don't have control of every part of myself... I lost control of what I'd been trying to suppress. And the leaves fell.

The reports from the stations monitoring the Land of Steel reported last that 99% of human life had been wiped out. They must have stopped because they either died or figured that there was no one to report it to anymore.

...I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry, everyone.

[She lets go quickly enough, anyway.]

Nobody should have to go through things like this alone.

No, I suppose not.

[heavenscorpse]

If you ever need my help, please tell me.

[Actionspam]

[reloadfromsave]

I... yes, of course. Thank you.

[heavenscorpse]

That's what friends are for.

[ he doesn't quite know what to say to that, so after a short while of looking at her, head slightly tilted, he nods. somehow, that seems right. ]

What are you going to do now? People that age go to school, don't they?

[Actionspam]

[reloadfromsave]

Yes. But I don't know what I'll do. I suppose I should go.

[ if only because he's been looking over some of Homura's notes out of curiosity and has a feeling he needs to be around her school in order to protect her friends. ]

I've never been in school, or I would give you some advice.

[Actionspam]

[reloadfromsave]

Neither have I. [ sigh. ] I don't really know what to expect.

[Actionspam]

[heavenscorpse]

Maybe you should ask her.

[Actionspam]

[reloadfromsave]

Oh. [ of course; he should have thought of that. ] Perhaps I should. Although somehow, I got the impression when we last talked that her mind is on things other than school.

[Actionspam]

[heavenscorpse]

Okay. What about the community?

[Actionspam]

[reloadfromsave]

That might be a better idea. There are other questions I have, anyway, and I should probably ask them while I have the chance.

That's good. I'm glad you're getting help that I can't give.
