I suppose some younger friends of hers may not have noticed quiet yet, but Kirimi has gone home. She'll be missed for certain, but... she's home and safe. Maybe some day she can come and visit us again.
But... that out of the way... Hmmm, how should I express this... Does it feel any different waking up every day lately. Like... something drastic has changed but you just can't tell what it is?
...
Maybe it's just knowing Kirimi isn't here any longer...
...no, it's still something greater than that. I just can't put my finger on it. The wind is different... somehow...

Are you sure it's not something else?

Still...]
Maybe it's the weather.

I've gotten better... It's still strange not hear her.

I hope that, too. [Another selfish desire. Perhaps worse than wanting a Spartan here.] But another kid could need us, if that turns the case.

Date: 1/23/12 08:02 am (UTC)If another kid ever needs us, I would still want to take care of it. It wouldn't be Kirimi. It wouldn't be a Spartan. But it would be a new bond worth making.
[This year has made her a lot more thoughtful. Too much free time is making her think about her life.]

Date: 1/24/12 09:43 am (UTC)You know, I'm still not human. A lot of these things are new to me still. Even though you've been a soldier for so long, you've still known the concept of camaraderie and friendship much longer than I have.
I'm still learning... and this is just another one of those complicated things we all have to go through, isn't it?

[Of camaraderie.]

Can you elaborate at all?
