Re: Anima POV
*Click* *Click* *Click*
A very intense gaming session is going on between the otaku girl and randoms on the internet.
"Protect the healer! Tank, what are you doing?!" Hachijou shouts.
"I'm bored."
Hachijou-san can stand sitting in her room all day long. I tried to entertain myself for a while, but now I've got nothing to do.
A random thought popped up.
What if I follow Floyd-san?
Helping my guardian with his work would be a great way to pass time. Furthermore, I could get a better sense of the city's layout outside than turtling up and hearing rumors from the sparrows.
For now, I should notify my 'guards'.
*Whistle*
A male house sparrow with a scratch on his beak showed up beside the window.
*Chirp* *Chirp?* (You need something, my lady?)
[Keep watch of her, okay? I need to go outside for a bit.]
*Chirp* *Chirp* (As you wish, my lady.)
[Thank you.]
I need to improve my Animal Communication skills so that I can convince them to stop referring to me as their superior...
The idea of servitude has always rubbed me the wrong way. It's one thing for it to be a job, but when it comes off as borderline slavery... I can't stand it.
What about Hein Portley?
Loathe as I am to admit it, he is the closest I have to a 'family' alongside Ge: Quil. He may be harsh, treating me like dirt, but... I can see that he still, no, he had acknowledged me 'having value' even if that entails being a mana battery...
Wouldn't that be an abusive relationship?
It was. I won't deny that, however, without Master Hein and Ge: Quil, I am nothing. There will be no Re: Anima. I lived my life thinking that he and my sister are the only people that I had. 'This is normal', 'It could've been worse', 'The outside world is horrible', these were my beliefs at the time, but now... I'm not sure.
Must be nice, huh? Being a freeloader to a 'loving' make-believe family.
That's-
"STOP FUCKING AROUND!!! YOU PLAYED LIKE A ROOKIE!" Hachijou snaps.
*Shudders*
"I- I should get going now..."
*Click!*
Following the chirps, the buzz, the meows, the woofs of the locals, she eventually caught the trail of the pale man walking.
I want to approach him, but how?
"Flo-"
A police officer comes and greets the pale man "Good evening, Mr. Arrenbach! How's work?"
"Good evening, officer. Business is good. I have been getting more clients lately." Freud says.
And so she waits.

"Alright, I have to resume my patrol now. Don't push yourself too hard, Mr. Arrenbach!" The police bid farewell.
"You too, officer." Freud answers back.
