   The day after the attack on USJ, classes were cancelled for her class. A large portion of people in the class were talking in the group chat to each other, supporting one another and sharing stories. It was quite a wholesome thing to watch, even if she never once texted herself.

Originally, she had hoped that Edna would allow her to just stay in all day and heal her mental scars, but that wasn't the case at all. In fact, she had been woken up by Edna yelling at her for trying to sleep in. The daycare downstairs was already a mess, even though only five kids were there today. After changing a diaper and heating up spaghettios for two kids, Edna yelled something from the living room.

"Go down to the shelter and get one of those food drive bags! We're still signed up for them on Fridays!" Edna screamed. ( Name ) yelled back a bland 'Okay!' and went to the door to tie her shoes.

You see, ( Name ) doesn't actually mind the tasks Edna is putting her to right now. They give her a reason to be distracted from her own trauma and run away from what happened. Lovely isn't it? She also doesn't despise having to help take care of kids at the daycare half the time either. It's usually kind of fun, because she can be immature all she wants. But today was annoying, mostly since a little girl named Hideko wasn't there today. Hideko was a kid who came in often, and ( Name )'s favorite kid. She was a sweetheart and never caused any trouble, and what she would say amused ( Name ) constantly.

Since Hideko wasn't there today, she found no reason to actually enjoy staying at the daycare. After she tied her shoes and removed a three year old from her leg, she was outside the house and walking down the street. Ryuu floated next to her tiredly, staring at the random ghosts that would occasionally float past them. He spoke up.

"Do you think we'll see that random bitch that floats around that chimney?" he asked.

Oh yeah, that girl. She had no actual clue what the ghost's name was, but the girl had faded dyed lilac hair and always twirled around the chimney of one of her neighbor's house. Her attire was always a relatively large, light blue jean jacket, a white shirt with a cloud on it and leggings. No shoes. She never made any attempt to try and speak with Ryuu or ( Name ), though she definitely knew ( Name )'s quirk by now. ( Name ) had originally began seeing her around three years ago, but the lilac haired girl continued aging with them, so she wasn't too concerned about her death.

Ryuu had no real reason to called the ghost a bitch, but did it simply because he found it unusual and annoying that she was just always sitting on a chimney. He shouldn't be talking though, because he's dead as well. But you do you I suppose.

Her eyes landed to the roof of said neighbor's house and indeed, there was the girl. Though it was relatively hard to see her form completely from across the street and on the ground, the girl was sat atop the chimney like always.

Maybe one day ( Name ) would make an attempt to talk to her, but today was not that day. So, she and Ryuu continued walking ( and floating ) down the block to the busier street ahead. She chewed on her lip anxiously as she walked down the busy street, keeping her head down. Her class had been on the news only yesterday, which meant that someone might recognize her face. Obviously it was a lot easier to hide with her hood on, so throughout the walk no one even spared her a glance.
