Hello again! Are you used to seeing my string of letters and numbers yet? I think I've spoken to you all often enough, or it feels like I have. It's Caramia!

This may feel a bit impersonal, as I am addressing all of you, but I hope you'll find comfort anyway. Even if you just needed it a little bit. Most of you have probably been victim to the constant proding and poking from the furniture, which is a sentence I never thought I'd write or say, but I'm sure I'll say stranger. Know that you're not alone, know that we realize it can be agonizing, and if you are tired or frustrated, know that above all else, we should understand. Obviously I can't speak for everyone, or even to everyone, but this is just for those who need it, I suppose?

We can get through this. If no one else, there's at least one person who believes in you.

Feel free to chatter with each other! Maybe give a compliment to someone? Say something nice? Counter all the negativity, if you will. If not, I'll be here for you. And if you'd rather not speak publically, I'm not hiding. I'll be in Ruga if you need an ear.

Hello, Caramia-san--it's Minato. It's good to see a message like this with everything that's going on.

Have you been doing okay yourself?

Hopefully, everyone thinks the same? I know it's hard to appease everyone, though.

"Okay" might be relative. Considering our situation, I'm doing fine!

I guess that's true, but... if you're ever not feeling fine, that's okay too I think. You can let other people support you too, just like you're supporting others.

Hey now, that's my line! Thanks, signore. That means a lot! However, I'm not exactly afraid of letting people know how I'm feeling.

[ Unless that feeling is "sick", of course. ]

That's good, then. You never know--a lot of people try to keep their feelings to themselves, but leaning on other people isn't necessarily a bad thing if you can trust them with it.

Don't I know it. If you see Kyrie around sometime, you should tell him that much.

[... Ooohhh. He shouldn't. Probably.

But he's gonna anyway, because he's so curious about Kyrie after all of this "WRITE ME A REPORT" nonsense.]

Does Kyrie-san have trouble expressing his feelings sometimes?

I don't think I should go talking about it too much in public. You should ask him.

[...Well, Caramia's right, and Minato won't deny that. Prying into someone else's business in public isn't a good idea either way.

It's not like Kyrie will tell him if he asks, but...]

You're right. I'll do my best to understand Kyrie-san on his own terms.

[He'll focus on less touchy subjects.]

Are you two friends, then?

He's my consigliere and best friend, actually! We go waaaay back!

[ "You should have seen him back in the day. He didn't have the best memory, but it didn't make him any less clever! He was so generous, too, and" ...

Caramia held the backspace key, quickly, trying again soon after. ]

He's got kind of a bad attitude, but he really means well in the end. He's never overly malicious and most of the things he does is for a reason of some kind. He always thinks he's right, but only because usually he is. He's kept me out of trouble more times than I can count and I wouldn't ask for someone better. We work together so well!

[... Oh. That's...really endearing. Best friend, huh...? So despite Kyrie's sour mood, he definitely has some sort of reason....

It's good to know, even if Minato had suspected that already.]

It sounds like you two really do balance each other out well. I'm really glad you have each other here, Caramia-san.

[Isn't it just... kind of nice to see a friendship like this, keeping a place this bleak warmer?]

You think so?

[ "I'm glad, too." ...Selfish. Why would you be happy he's here? He's your best friend, right? Him being here, stuck in this awful place... this isn't what you want for him. Yet you're glad? How selfish. ]

Grazie, Minato.

[Selfish, sure--but people are selfish sometimes. There isn't necessarily anything wrong with that.

Either way, for now--]

Take care of yourself, Caramia-san.

[He'll leave Caramia alone. It was a good way to learn a few things, though--he's glad for that.]
