Homura: (An) <...Ah. I suppose that answers a question I had about that ability of mine as well. A product of your...upbringing?>

(eyes widen a bit - can she play another role? Takes a deep breath and goes forth) <Hmm...it might be a good idea if you got some rest, Kai. Even in a game as absorbing as Vanguard, you should take care of yourself and get some fresh air outside sometimes, right?> (deliberate shift in vocal tone) <Yeah...maybe you're right. Sorry Aichi - we can resume this later.> (Time to cut losses for now and save some potential ammunition for when it may come time to wake him up inside.) Also, I need to wrap this up in good time

(As/An) <I can't say for sure if you're right, Ms. Ash. Do either of you have a means of bugging or track him so that we may see where he may go?>

<I do as well. I have an employee who knows scrying magic - meaning, he should be able to watch the boy from a distance. Please grab me a lock of Aichi's hair?>

-goes to step into the portal to her store-

-gives a relieved grin-

Well, now I know! I hope it's going well.

Eheh... if I were here, I'd wish her good luck too. Good vibes from one supervillain to another, y'know?

-The priestess finishes up her prayers and stands up, keeping her hands clasped in front of her-

-She's very calm despite the weirdness on display in front of her-

Main Room (Survivor Aichi)

<It's fine... I hope you feel better soon, Kai...>

-Meanwhile Aichi simply remains sitting on the couch...-

Sthesia's Room (Ai)

-Ai is still unconscious...-

-She's definitely stable now, her throat doesn't have a single sign of injury, she's got a lot more color now, that IV is still going...-

-...But she still hasn't woken up yet.-

-...? Someone might have hear a soft moan coming from her.-

Also Main Room (Young Aichi)

-Aichi just walked in the room when he sees the person in the corner of the room.-

"...A-Are you OK...?"

Homura: (An, gets the sense details are best left for another time)

(As - ''oh, that's her store? Raises eyebrow as she notes the convenience, before quietly looking at Annie) <Can you do that? The tools I have aren't really suited for haircuts.>

(ZA) <...Are you doing OK, Aichi? Kai will be fine once he gets some rest, I promise.>

Haha, right.

What're you up to? Besides the new arm.

-Ash returns to the main room, with her young, very Aichiesque employee close behind-

-points out Survivor Aichi- There... that's the one.

O-oh... um, I'll do my best! Hey, he kinda looks like...

Great, excellent.

Last notable things that happened to me were getting married and starting an impromptu fashion business. And those were months ago.

Hm?

-Turns towards the voice, hands still clasped-

Oh, I'm quite alright. I was just being quiet for the moment.

Main Room (Survivor Aichi)

<...Y-Yeah, I'll be fine... It was just a scare, was all...>

-He sounds a bit uncertain about that though.-

<Maybe I got a little too worked up... I just sort of feel... high strung for some reason...>

-...Seems like some of the trauma hasn't been completely forgotten in this dream world of his...-

Sthesia's Room (Ai)

-Sthesia, it's a bit louder now. It's definitely coming from Ai!-

"...Ugh..."

-Is she waking up?-

Also Main Room (Young Aichi)

-Oh...-

"Why were you being quiet?"

-He's still rather nervous, but he's also curious.-

Homura: (glancing at the returned Ash, double taking at yet another Aichi-lookalike) <Hey, Kai's a friend, right? It's natural to be worried about your friends when they aren't looking well. You'd do anything for them, right?>

(As/An) <Hurry up - I don't know how much longer I can stall.>

It'd be awfully uncouth to say my prayers loudly, wouldn't it? I wouldn't want to disturb people.

Main Room (Survivor Aichi)

<Yeah, I would... I'd do anything to help you all! I don't know what I would do without you...>

-He seems to pause.-

<...It's strange, but I feel like it's been a really long time since I've gotten to be with you guys...>

-He seems to remember the zombie apocalypse on some level...-

<...and it feels like I haven't played Vanguard in a long time either...>

-...-

Also Main Room (Young Aichi)

"You were praying?"

-Does she mean like the prayers they do at shrines back home?-

Homura: (outwardly frowns at Aichi's mental words) <...Just be aware of what you're promising when you say that, Aichi. Make sure you don't accidentally hurt someone that doesn't want to see you suffer.>

(Then came the suspicion that he might be close to realizing.) <Really? That's pretty weird, isn't it? Maybe you should go rest as well - you have to wait for Kai to get better to resume playing anyway, right?>

(A tricky thread to weave - enough to maintain the line to allow Aichi to realize the truth eventually, but not yet. Homura wants to see whom might have done this to him in the first place and why...whether they might try to do the same for others here. Is he acting as a spy?)

Her arm descends upon Aichi's head — and, her pointer finger and thumb grabbing a few strands of his bang, quickly pulls it back.

Main Room -> ??? (Survivor Aichi)

<Oh, um... All right...>

-He wouldn't want to upset everyone...-

<Y-Yeah... It's been an eventful day... I probably should...>

-His smile returns.-

<Thanks, Misaki... I'll come again tomorrow, OK?>

-Annie successfully gets a couple pieces of hair before he's drug along by the invisible G.-

Also Main Room (Young Aichi)

-Oh, that makes sense!-

"I wouldn't want to do something bad either...!"
