-The room is in sight, by now-
-She's walked fifty metres and isn't showing the slightest strain-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Have you made many friends here, Cats?
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Well, you've met one now, I think.
-She smiles up at her-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?I don't know. Really, as long as there's room for me to stretch, I'll be fine.
-She reaches the room, lowering the log carefully-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-She sets the log down, gently picking some bark out of her hair, then smiling to Cats again-
Did I miss any?
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Okay, now do me.
-She offers her Scalp-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-She steps back and feels, just to be sure, then grins-
Yep.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Outside (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-Yeah...-
"Ahhh...! I don't know what to do...!"
-Poor Aichi seems stressed out about this.-
-Misaki, on the other hand, seems pretty level. Although it's clear she is trying to figure out a solution.-
-She's never had to deal with a situation like this either, and despite her stern demeanor she still can't help but want to shield the kid from the cruel reality (as much as she'd rather be honest about it to pretty much everyone else).-
-She just can't explain it to children. Maybe because she had to learn a harsh truth as well when her parents died (although it obviously wasn't the same as 'We're all going to die!'), and she knows how frightening and terrible it'd be for a child to deal with this...-
-She has a soft spot for children, and just can't get herself to be as stern or cold with them (or at least well-behaved children. She can talk sternly to bratty or otherwise loud children [Although she still tends to be a bit less harsh with them, for the most part]).-
"...We could lie about why we need to move."
-Instead of 'we're all gonna die if we don't get out of here'...-
-...Although...-
"...That still wouldn't help with how we're going to deal with everyone else being panicked and in a hurry to get out."
-So they'd have to figure out something else for that...-
"Yeah..."
-Monika once told Aichi he should talk to children just like anyone else...-
-...But the poor kid's going to be absolutely terrified by the idea that if they don't get out of there then they're all going to die (Or actually, just flat out cease to exist!).-

Outside (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-Yeah...-
-...Although Aichi and Misaki don't really have much they can do to help with what's going on, unlike Leos and Sthesia.-
"...I-Is there anything we can do to help you?"
"We have to do something."
-Both Aichi and Misaki are tired of being on the sidelines and want to do something to help you and everyone else, guys.-
-They're extremely restricted since the only way Aichi would be able to put up any kind of fight would be in a Mobile Suit (along with still not being mentally prepared to be back in battle) and Misaki's well aware that her armor and weaponry isn't enough to do anything.-
-Both of them are stuck, and yet they want to help somehow...-
-Even if it's not fighting, even if it's not figuring out transportation...-
-They want to do something!-

-Lifts her up with it, carrying it steadily-
I feel a little bad for the tree, to be honest, but I think this is for the best.
I'll plant a bunch more once we reach the next place.
