[ Michiru ]

█ XX █ ♥ ;;
                      Michiru blinks, remembering that some of the construction workers had greeted her this day when she was going to the graveyard. They were nice, trying to avoid troubling the others in the neighborhood as much as possible.

                     “Because some things changing wouldn’t make it feel as much as home as it used to be, right?” she said.  The dorms had recently been broken down too, making way for an apartment where the new loaners could live. It left Michiru with a bit of a hollow feeling each time she saw it. After all, a piece of her past was now gone, probably never able to return to how it once was.

A frown is deep-set into her
features, as neutral an
expression as one for her
can be. ❝ …Yeah, maybe, ❞
is her unsure reply    or, half
of one, really    spoken
more to the air than anything, 
❝ I-I guess that could be it. ❞

                                              She shifts uncomfortably,
                                              hovering a mere centimeter
                                              above her wall and knotting
                                              her previously frowning 
                                              features into a more than
                                              ugly grimace. Lips tilt, off-
                                              center, and eyebrows bear
                                              down upon her eyelids. 
                                              ❝ …Things used to be much
                                              nicer…for me, at least.
                                              Things were…quieter. ❞ 

❝ …Even though people
still bothered me a lot, things
were quieter. ❞
