[OPEN] I'm in here
Who: Mary Kozakura (
immobileyes) and YOU
When: IC 2/27-3/01
Where: Residential District, right by the not-so-standing apartments
What: Mary tries to dig up things from her fallen apartment over the course of a few days, success is varied
Rating/Warning: None!
[ It was hard enough, waiting for the water level to go down enough so that Mary could return to where her apartment was (had been) without risk of drowning. Seto's hoodie, the jacket Hiro had given her... they were the only things she'd been able to find at the time, but now she can search for anything remaining from their apartment.
So feel free to come across a tiny teenager over the afore-mentioned days, getting drizzled on and trying to pry up pieces of the smaller rubble - and HNNNNNGHing at the bigger pieces of debris that she can't budge at all - as she hunts about. The stuffed animal she'd received from Lily is gone, the headband from Kaoru and Shiho has been twisted and bent beyond repair when she miraculously finds that... the dried flowers, from the bouquet Elza had given her... no sign of them. All of her tea...
Mary almost wants to cry, but not yet. She just keeps looking.
And don't be alarmed if she seems worn-out when you see her. It's not some weird elemental effect, she's just terrible at stamina. ]

Was this where you lived?
no subject
... It doesn't look like a home anymore, does it?
no subject
[He's not going to sugarcoat that, even as he quietly moves another piece of rubble away as well.]
What are we searching for?
[The non-answer explains enough. They're looking for Mary's belongings--that's enough of a reason to keep working at it.]
no subject
... Everything?
[ Well. She doesn't quite mean that. ]
no subject
[He's taking her completely seriously, okay.... HERE THEY GO. Back to digging.]
no subject
no subject
[Though he realizes a moment later that that is admittedly a little vague.]
I do feel more like myself, so you don't have to worry any longer.
no subject
no subject
[Which he hates--he doesn't like admitting he's clueless, but it's the truth.
And then he holds up a teacup--cracked, but miraculously in one piece otherwise.]
This belongs to you, correct?
no subject
[ One of like... twelve, but it's amazingly (almost) intact, and Mary reaches out to take it with an air of amazement. ] It really... didn't break...
no subject
[There's probably a deep metaphorical moment waiting to be uncovered here, but Sousei doesn't wait for it. Instead, he just goes right back to work as soon as Mary has her cup.]
no subject
... But maybe the rest are nearby. [ So she's gently nestling the cup in a nest made of one rediscovered dress (now muddy, but still mostly intact) and scooting over to see if she can help. ]
no subject
[Unless they were swept away by the water--but he's not going to say that. They may as well search for the whole set.]
It should not take much more to uncover this part of the room.
no subject
... I'm really glad that no one was in it when it fell.
[ If nothing else, at least there's that. ]
no subject
[It's kind of a remarkable miracle, when he thinks about it.]
Material possessions can be replaced, though we will naturally recover what we can.
no subject
[ Sorry, Elza... ]
no subject
[...that said, he understands the value of keeping precious things.]
We will continue looking, however. There is no reason to give up yet.
no subject
[ SHE'S NOT GONNA GIVE UP. ]
