so sorry to everyone i owe stuff to , these last two months have honestly been horrible to me , i hope I'll be able to get to them soon
" that is true . combined with my own lack of communicative skills ... sometimes it feels like nothing of importance is said . "
nodding , easing into sitting beside the younger one . the trouble she described seemed of great importance , and of course , she had no issue-
there is a moment of thick silence as elder processes sudden news , and the realizations that come by their hand .
how ... unexpected . she did her best not to actively peek into lives , but to have missed something this crucial ? a child ?
she almost felt embarassed .
" ah . "
" I see . "

standing in the middle of pure whiteness , inspecting the young one , hands crossed beneath robes .
" your ... parents told you to come here for shelter ? "
she was certainly not about to refuse and kick her out now , she was not heartless , however the information was.. -
the barriers allow her entry , and soon there she is , in front of the ancient sorcerer .
" I was not expecting anyone to show up today .. what is the reason of your visit ? "
there was a tinge of familiarity to this one . perhaps the reason she had not rejected entry ..

don't worry ... don't worry . i know you care . I care about you , too .
( ruffling her hair ... she rarely got to be in this situation , where she was the one to accept someone's care ... it didn't feel wrong . not at all . )
do you ... want to distract yourself , perhaps ?
i do , dear . i do .
( caressing doesn't stop . she understands solitude , expectation ... cages that are self-imposed and not for that any less real . )
don't you worry about it . when it comes to moments like these , you can always come to me .
" it's fine . everyone has their moments . "
( hand caressing and fixing locks of hair , slow and careful movements , measuring not to be overbearing . )
" just let it all out for a bit . "
hand combing through her hair ... letting the moment happen . she can just breathe , for now .

tight, childlike embrace into @StarPlasmaHost . it’s hard to care for everybody sometimes. 🌀
" drink away .. "
( a tired sigh , attempting to relax . silence settling between elder and young , not uncomfortable in itself , but heavy . heavy with thoughts and what ifs . )
( hindsight is 20/20 and it's too easy to get caught on what could have been - elder being an-
-expert in the matter , despite constant differences , she wants Tsukumo to not feel the constant anguish . not knowing how to lift that burden from her head was simply another part of the equation . )
" if you two had not done what you did , I would be here no longer . it is-
