009 ✞ [VIDEO] - Backdated to before the fog rolls in....

[unetrustworthy]

[Midii payed close attention to the Network.  Often.  She saw the conversation passing publicly between individuals.  Noticed the patterns occurring.  Such as the recent increase in people disappearing.  Possibly being sent home.  Coincidently, starting from soon after the Emperor had been killed, except Midii didn't think it was a coincidence.]

[But that wasn't why she came to the Network that day.]

[She had a different question in mind.  Something she had been wondering about more and more, with every conversation she carried here:]

What if...somebody doesn't want to go home?  

Could they make us?  Or would they let us stay?

[Hypothetically speaking, of course.]

[Only it wasn't hypothetical at all.]

I wouldn't mind if that's true. I just wish I knew what it was they wanted me to do.

Maybe that's something you should work out for yourself?

[Her nose scrunched up, and for a moment, it almost looked like she was glaring at the mere thought of the suggestion. If it were that easy, wouldn't she have done it already?]

[Then Midii catches herself, and her facial features relax.]

I can...try.

Sorry. I'm not much good with anything besides... fighting.

But you're young, I'm sure there are plenty of things you know, or can learn.

I want to.

Learn, that is. Not so much fighting--[Though she wouldn't object if it came to learning how to at least defend herself.]--but about everything else I can.

You sound like Elizabeth. [Which is a compliment.]

[unetrustworthy]

And that's a...good thing?

[Just checking.]

[washitaway]

Yep. She's one of the smartest people I know.

In that case, thank you.
