Warnings for violence, self harm, and suicide attempts and ideation.

(Also for overblown symbolism and the fact I am almost entirely winging this ;D)

[ ...!

it's too bad someone who doesn't exist can't display manners. or say thank you to nice nee-sans. this is deeply unfortunate.

......mnnnnnnnn. popping her head awkwardly out the other side to eye Rin just over the table surface ]

[marezydoats]

Hello. Do you want to talk...?

[ She's trying to keep her posture as non-threatening as she can. Nee-san isn't a threat. ]

[miraculess]

[ ...

slips back beneath the blankets ]

[marezydoats]

It's okay, we don't have to talk. I'll leave you alone, if you'd like. Do you mind if I practice my calligraphy, too? It's been a while, you see.

[miraculess]

[ ... reaches out, grabs one of the sheets of paper that got knocked off, scoots it over to her, and withdraws ]

[marezydoats]

Thank you.

[ With that, she glances at whatever character Lilith appeared to be attempting, and does her own copy of it. ]

[miraculess]

[ it's... kind of difficult to tell, really, her handwriting is absolutely atrocious. "water," maybe...? ]

[marezydoats]

[ She slowly, deliberately writes "water." For her part, Rin's handwriting is neat and beautiful. ]

[miraculess]

[ well look at you and your developed motor skills :/ ]

[marezydoats]

[ She puts that aside and takes another piece of paper. Rather than trying more words, she's using the calligraphy ink to do a stylized drawing. ]

[miraculess]

[ ...somewhere in the middle of that she starts oozing out from underneath the table's opposite side. it's difficult not to notice; the way Lilith moves normally seems a little off, but this version of her is even worse. it's like she has no idea how a human should be able to move at all. ]

[marezydoats]

[ For now, she keeps at what she's doing... Though out of the corner of her eye, she's watching Lilith. ]

[miraculess]

[ finishes her ooze and— abruptly scuttles out of the room into what looks like it might be the kitchen? this is immediately followed by slightly too-loud rummaging noises ]

[marezydoats]

[ She glances in the direction that Lilith scuttled off to, but she wants to finish her drawing before she gets up. ]

[miraculess]

[ Rin doesn't need to either way; after a few more moments Lilith sidles hesitantly back in carrying a tray with snacks and tea on it only to pause in the doorway and rub one ankle with the ball of her other foot ]

[marezydoats]

[ Rin glances up at Lilith. She doesn't quite smile, but her eyes light up. ]

...Thank you.

[miraculess]

[ nods a little overenthusiastically, almost a very clumsy bow, and looks unabashedly pleased with herself as she brings the tray over to set on the edge of the table. she did a good and was properly polite to a guest ]
