[Video]

[When Michiru turns on the video, there's something quiet and subdued about her expression. She's trying to keep her emotions in, that much is clear, even behind the carefully schooled expression, the calm, soft way her voice sounds when she speaks.]

Haruka is gone.

[There's no uncertainty in this. She's looked -- searched really -- for the other woman. But, well, it's not a question anymore. She knows.]

I'm sure she'll be all right. Haruka has always been strong. And... [She trails off, summons up something that's almost a smile, and moves to turn the video off.]

But what about you?

Me? [Michiru echoes quietly, head canting ever so slightly to the side.] I'm... still here.

[Here, and hurting. The heart was much too fragile at times, and this was one of those reminders.]

Yes, you are. I'd like some company. Would you?

Michiru-san.... [thought the movement is likely not visible on the video, Usagi's fists clench loosely in her lap as she watches the feed.]

She'll be back, Michiru-san! I know she will. We'll all be here to greet her when she shows up, too.

[Usagi. Always so sweet. Michiru tries to find a genuine looking smile for her.]

I'm sure she will. She has to be. [A little pause.] The others too.

Mm! [there's a quiet, somber sort of silence for a moment.]

Michiru-san? [a beat, but she isn't looking for an answer here.] We're all here, if you need us. You don't have to be sad alone.

[Minako felt generally sad for Michiru, after all the one she cared about had gone.]

She's a tough cookie, I'm certain she'll return to us sooner or later.

Edited 2012-07-07 14:19 (UTC)

[Michiru nods a little.] Mm. That's right. I'm sure she will too.

Thank you.

You're welcome. We're all in this together after all.

She'll return. She's done it before. So have you.

So have I?

Yeah...most people don't remember when they disappear then come back. It's the same with a lot of your friends from your world.

[Oh no! Not again! It always felt terrible when people you were close to disappeared, but it must have been even worse for Michiru.]

Are you sure she is really gone?

[It was a question of disbelief. Hotaru knew Michiru would never have said that Haruka was gone unless she was absolutely sure of it. ]

I now she will be alright. We just have to believe in her until the day she returns again.

Mm. I'm sure. [A little bit of a nod here.]

You're right. Haruka is strong enough to take care of herself. And to find her way back to us.

I could come and sit with you for a while if you don't want to be alone?

[Hotaru had no idea how Michiru might be handling this change of situation. She might be really lonely now and since thinking about that made her sad she wondered if maybe Michiru would appreciate a little company. ]

[Rei may not be as great at the reassurance thing as Usagi, but Michiru is a respected friend and ally-- so is Haruka. She feels the need to at least say something.]

Even if we leave for a while, this place keeps calling us back. She may not have any recollection of her time before her arrival, but I'm sure she'll return to us soon.

I'm sure you're right. I hope you are.

[A faint smile here, a silent sort of thank you.]

I heard there's no correlation with the people that disappear. I'm sorry for your loss.

No correlation?

[A shake of her head.] Haruka will be back. I have to believe that.

Have hope, I am sure your friend will be return to us soon.

[There's the briefest moment where she considers telling him that friend isn't the right word. But instead, she inclines her head, faintly.] I hope you're right.

Oh Michiru.. I'm so sorry. I had no idea that.. [Haruka had left]

Edited 2012-07-10 00:25 (UTC)

[She shakes her head and offers Makoto a bit of a smile.] It's all right.

We just have to have faith in her finding her way back. Or our finding a way to bring our world out of the Darkness.

Do you know why or where she has gone?

[She'd heard Yaten was here, but seeing the other is still... well, surprising. But Michiru simply shakes her head at the question.] No. People disappear here, are drawn back into the darkness perhaps.
