[Finger going on Violet's lips to gently shush her..?]

Then it's a good thing I have my memories, right? I can walk you through it.

[folding_cranes]

I think...maybe...that was my first......

[femmefailtale]

[Takes her eyepatch off then, and nods.]

Then I'll have to take responsibility, huh.

[folding_cranes]

Responsibility?

[also wait you can take off your eyepatch??]

[femmefailtale]

[Yeah her other eye is working again too and it's a yellow crystal rock thing.]

[Pretty baller.]

As the person who stole your first kiss.

[folding_cranes]

[but why were you wearing an eyepatch if you had an eye? is that the fashion of young folk these days? man the things you miss out on when you're blind]

It...it's alright. I...didn't mind...

[femmefailtale]

[Some of us have deep and complicated in character reasons to hide their other eye.]

[Mel is not one of them she just thinks it looks cool and it normally has x ray anyways.]

I know. That's why I want to do it again.

And maybe some other stuff.

[folding_cranes]

Like...the tour of the library...?

[femmefailtale]

...Yeah, that too.

[folding_cranes]

[...takes her hand?]

Alright.

[femmefailtale]

[...okay yes you can have my hand.]

[goddamit I'm a sucker for the nice cute ones.]

At least there's some bright side to being on a team nobody likes in the middle of a place where I'm going to die a million times.

[folding_cranes]

[squeezes]

I can't say it's going to be good, or even alright... But you won't be alone.

[femmefailtale]

[Squeezes back. ...I don't know how much you can pick up but there's a lot of pent up fear/panic buried deep beneath a million layers of snark and bluster.]

'Course not. I have a team, don't I? ...And you, I guess.

[folding_cranes]

[that stands to reason for anyone in this place, so can ballpark this much]

That's right. So there are plenty of people to lean on, if you need to. Or even if you don't.

[femmefailtale]

[...Okay you are getting another kiss.]

[Chastely. On the forehead.]

Thanks. You're a good girl...

Hey. JD's kind of a nickname--you can call me that or Meliora or Mel or whatever.

[folding_cranes]

[^^]

Meliora... It's pretty.

[femmefailtale]

Yeah. One of the few good things I got from my old man.

[folding_cranes]

You weren't particularly close?

[femmefailtale]

Dude was a raving douchebag who decided to teach me everything I needed to learn the trade but refused to actually ever bother thinking that maybe I would like a 'hey good job' every now and again.

And then he'd always show up beaten to high hell and expect me to just take care of him like a nurse or some shit. And it's like--how unreasonable is that?! I'm eight! The fuck am I doing dressing your damn injuries?!

[folding_cranes]

[...squeezes back more tightly; offering support, but not necessarily interrupting if she wants to continue]

[femmefailtale]

[Just sighs and squeezes back.]

Anyways. Moral of the story is dad was a douchebag and totally sucked.

[folding_cranes]

I see...

But he did have good taste in names.

[femmefailtale]

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes.

[folding_cranes]

...I suppose so. At least if it's kept somewhere with trees.

[femmefailtale]

...You're right. He probably looked it up on the web or something.

[That bastard.]
