Milla is... at the piano, because look. She likes playing it well-enough and the more it gets played, the less bad she feels for it just sitting there, collecting dust. Silver plays too, but it just looks so lonely sometimes--
Sure? [ Milla shoves back her hair to unclasp her necklace, then slides the flower-shaped crystal off the chain and into her hand. It's a surprisingly warm shade of green; there's a few dark spots, but overall, it's bright.
Holding it out to him then!! ] Why?
[ yeah she only asked after she gave it so what. ]
[ For Sosyne, right? Milla stares... yeah, that's definitely similar. She crosses her arms, chain still dangling from one of her hands, and shrugs. ]
I guess you must've switched alignments. It's not unheard of... er, in the past. There were some findings about people deliberately changing their alignment from one Arehtei to another. [ Innn the past. She didn't realize it could happen to them. ...although it makes sense. Why wouldn't it be able to. A lot of other weird stuff that doesn't happen to aaaanyone else happens to them. ] Cartwright's group discovered that back during one of her ruin manias, I'm pretty sure.
[ Probably Inoman. ]
I guess I wouldn't be surprised if it happened accidentally, too. [ A weird thought. Hers... hasn't switched, even if she's sure it would've. Is it because of her underlying feelings..? She squeezes her thin chain. ]
That's all. I think. You could check in with the officials about it, 'cause I'm not the end-all be-all of information here. [ Though she does know a fair bit. ]
[ ...is he really that happy about it--well given Sosyne's last thing she's. not surprised. ]
Iiiif your color matches mine, then hey. Yours is Aiada now. Congratulations, you're officially aligned to one of the assholes that still hasn't shown up. [ And... Milla is not entirely sure she wants her to show up. Her pod hadn't been as bad, but it still... eugh. ] Give me my crystal back if you're done with it.
[ Back onto her necklace is goes, and back around her neck that goes. It's nearly complete, she's pretty sure... A second completed crystal. How many of these is she going to have before she goes back to the prime dimension? ]
[ This is like being liked by the cat that doesn't like anybody. ]
Well--thanks. [ A small fidget. ] ...but there's a difference between trusting people and trusting people. I trust--I have to trust people not to mess up or get me killed when we're out and stuff like that, but they're not people I'd go telling about what happened with me and my sister. Unless it accidentally comes out.
[ Dumb Arehtei-influenced things. ]
Unfortunately, there's a hell of a lot more people than I'd like knowing that, but what can you do. [ THE ENTIRE PRIME DIMENSION PARTY KNOWS. THAT'S LIKE, like. Seven whole people she doesn't need. ] ...what the hell was my point-- right. Different levels of trust are all still trust. That was my point and it ran right away from me.
Thanks. You too. [ --well, not entirely. She has more than like two people she trusts. But like, she trusts him too. That's the point here. ] ...I'd like to think that we'd be all right if Piphron ever showed up, since people seem to band together anyway and save the day like the heroes they all think they are, even if his trial or whatever is hard as hell because we never trusted each other enough up until that point.

but oh. Ohhh boy. That look. How nice. ]
What happened this time.

[How does he ask this?
...It's best to just ask flat-out, isn't it.]
Can I see your crystal?
no subject
Sure? [ Milla shoves back her hair to unclasp her necklace, then slides the flower-shaped crystal off the chain and into her hand. It's a surprisingly warm shade of green; there's a few dark spots, but overall, it's bright.

Why isn't it purple?

I'm not aligned to Sosyne anymore?
[Yes, that's just what she said, but he needs confirmation of if anyway.]
no subject
[ Is that a good thing or a bad thing? ...Silver's usually pretty chill, and from what she remembers, that stupid whale still needs to chill. Hmm. ]
no subject
[It's getting a little warm and bright in here, isn't it.]
Good.

He hands it back over- carefully- and looks over his.]
As long as it's not Piphron.
[That would end disastrously for him. ...Again.]
no subject
What happened with Piphron?
no subject
[...Well that's a fun statement.]
I don't know if you noticed, but I'm not a very trusting person.
[How many people here actually are genuinely trusting? When Piphron shows up, it's gonna be a mess.]
no subject
Is anyone? Aside from a bleeding heart, I guess. [ Like... Jude. ] What's important is that you do come to trust people.
[ these are some wise words from someone who has trouble TRUSTING PEOPLE at times. ]
no subject
[Out of everyone he knows, how many of them does he genuinely trust?]
I trust you. You and Cilan.
[And Nagito, kind of. The circumstances around him are kind of weird.
But that's about it.]

...Let me put it this way, then. You're the only two people I trust more than I distrust.
[Which is what matters here, right?]
