The Final Key

Who: CLOSED. Nano, Kairi, and a special guest monster
Where: Castle Oblivion
Summary: Nano has a quest leading her deep within Kairi's home, and the redhead is happy to offer her a hand getting there.
Warnings: PG-13 by default


[It would be lying to say she wasn't surprised and perhaps a bit worried to get a call from Nano requesting to travel deep within the castle during the 13th hour, but Kairi was willing to hear her friend out on the matter. And, well, hearing it was a special request from the Velvet Room? She definitely couldn't turn her away from something like that, even if it did get dangerous in there; it'd at least be less so with Kairi around, now that she had inherited the castle. All in all, she had agreed to be her escort.

So, Kairi was waiting on the steps in front of the castle, laying back with fingers entwined behind her head, a small habit she had picked up from extended contact with her best friend. The stars were quite pretty and vibrant tonight, though she couldn't help but feel a twinge of homesickness staring up at them like this, even though that home wasn't technically even hers to speak of. Either way and despite the small bit of negativity, stars still had an overwhelming sense of hope to her, and she quite enjoyed looking up at them when she had an opportunity. So many other people in so many other worlds were looking up at the same sky and stars as she was, with all their own lives and dreams... and maybe, for all Kairi knew, the other her was looking up at them right now too. And maybe, just maybe, orbiting among all those stars way up there was the station, where her loved ones still lived and endured week after week of Val's whims. As long as they carried on... well, there was still hope they could end up here.

Glancing at her watch, a few minutes ticked before midnight would hit; Nano should be here any minute, so long as she hadn't gotten caught up in something. Hopefully she'd get here soon, wouldn't want to miss the rather interesting transformation...]

She isn't even in school yet!

[Nano giggles at the thought.]

I'm sure she'll invent all sorts of useful things to help people once she's able to start studying in a real classroom. She might even graduate high school before I do!

[And she seems to find the comment about Kairi's cat equally amusing.]

Sakamoto wasn't as cute anymore after we knew what he was saying. We thought about leaving him where we found him, but we ended up bringing him home in the end. He's part of the family now!

[Warm smiles abound as Kairi's hand touches her shoulder.]

Oh, yes! That was Yukko-san! I should introduce her to you all sometime... maybe you and Namine-san can come over to our house for dinner!

[But that was a plan to be discussed when there aren't dangerous monsters to slay. Focusing once again on the path ahead, Nano nods to Kairi, stepping through the door with her weapon at the ready.]

[Nano looks around the new room, curiously taking in her surroundings before her attention is drawn to the cage with the doll. Upon realizing who its modeled after, she smiles, glancing to Kairi.]

Oh, that's-!

[But the other girl doesn't seem nearly as happy, so she quickly clams up, wondering what's wrong all of a sudden. This particular metaphor for Namine's life is a little too sophisticated for Nano.]

O-okay...
