she has a fuckin. fanfic level panic attack (positive, as in I didn't expect this from official writing) in her oprec
where it is kinda implied she got told some. less than kind things by her parents.
Kirara fishes out her phone, and scrolls the whole way down her drafts, until she hits the day she set out.
Since leaving that nomadic city she called home, her phone's mail service has been out of commission.
But leaving home for the first time, the girl still records everything she sees, hears, feels and thinks, no matter how big or small, in her drafts folder.
Kirara pulls a sheet of letter paper from her drawer, and copies from her drafts, going character by character, by word, by sentence.
A folder filled both with great chunks of text, and messy fragments of phrases.
"day 2. completely out of nomadic city signal range today, no more using phone to stay in touch anymore. dont worry though, once im at rhodes island like utage says, ill send you all a million letters."
"day 5. sat in a car the whole day. insanely bumpy over the wasteland, couldnt even play my handheld the whole way or else id throw up."
"day 11. in yan now, road suddenly got way better! plants look kind of like home here but also kind of not, could only vaguely tell, i dont know plants much anyway. driver switched to someone yanese too, looks really tough but actually kind of chill, gave me some snacks apparently specialty of yan. wonder if theres a lot of yanese people at rhodes island?"
Kirara devotedly copies, filling page after letter page, until she reaches the draft dated latest.
"day 34. finally in lungmen! agreed to meet utage in the city tonight, but she said something came up and she couldnt make it and someone else would meet up with me. she likes joking a lot though so maybe shell actually show up."
"waited on an empty stomach the whole day until the guy whos meeting me finally showed up. seems kind of unapproachable. hope its not all guys like him at rhodes island or else im never gonna be able to say a word."
"i think i got in the wrong car. drivers not rhodes island, hes siracusan mafia. he says hes going to go back to siracusa what do i do"
"he got framed from the start, he just wants to go home."
"ive been missing home the whole time actually, i just held it in and never wrote about it before. everythings really nice in yan, but the food keeps being different everywhere and i cant get used to it, i always get stomach aches, i cant use my phone i cant send mail i cant chat with my friends i dont even have the guts to talk to anyone its horrible, the wind is really harsh in the wastes and sand got in my eyes nobody even helped me i just had to get it out with a napkin myself"
"if i make it out of here alive and if my oripathy gets stable when rhodes island is in higashi i promise ill come back to see you i promise ill be a cheerful happy person i wont worry you anymore i promise"
The draft abruptly ends there.
Kirara tears up the sheet that contains this draft, crumples it into a ball, and throws it on the floor.
She locks her phone screen, and on a fresh sheet of paper writes anew, "day 34".
"day 34. finally in lungmen! me and utage met up in the city, utage took me to rhodes island. no twists along the way at all, it all went smooth." "i love you."
this character doesn't feel real what the fuck
