Who: Yuri, any other people
When: Day 45, morning
Where: Third floor common area
What: IT'S A TRAAAAAAP and also a mingle I guess

[Yuri is sitting out by the windows in the third floor common area, making what appears to be a trap of sorts out of some wood. that's not very remarkable, though it is a very well-made trap. What's remarkable is what he's using for bait: a plate of food.

and it is the most beautiful plate of food you've ever seen. the presentation, the color of the food—it's perfect, luscious. practically art. only a mad person would give something so beautiful and tasty looking to an animal. and yet, as he tests the tension in the trap, that's apparently what he's going to do...]

[ just wandering because restless but-- ...hm you look familiar??

...wait... ]

[Looking up when you walk by... gosh I never got your name]

Ah-! How are you feeling?

[ ...SHIT I REMEMBER THOSE EYES. okok i got this

no i don't fuck. stiiill looks a little feverish and has blotchy(healing) bruises all over, but. looks. better? ]

A-ah... u-um, much better, thank you... d-did I ever introduce myself...?

[She just smiles at your fumbling]

You didn't, but considering the state you were in, I think it's more than a little understandable.

[ this is embarrassing... bowing, slowly. ]

I-I'm Akimoto Natsume. Thank you for taking care of me...

But I really think I should be thanking you, for fighting so hard on everyone's behalf.

My name is Irisviel.

I-I didn't do much...

...

I'm very sorry about what I said to you, Miss Irisviel.

There's really no need to apologize. You did nothing wrong.

[ BUT I REMEMBER THE LOOK ON YOUR FACE ]

...I-it was rude, to assume...

It wasn't. You were injured and feverish. And... that kind of comparison is not one I particularly mind.

[ ...unsure face goes here ]

If you ever meet my mother you might begin to...

[ ...wait looking back up, confused ]

...You didn't... mind?

Not at all. And if it helped you feel comforted for those few moments, then that's even better.

[ ...bwuh .////. blushing a little and bowing her head again. ]

...Y-yes, um... you helped me very much.

[...cute...]

I was happy to.

Thank you, again...

[ gosh well i mistook you for my mom so i should probably get to know you better so it wasn't just a... freak... thing. ]

...S-so, um... do you have children...?

[Silence stretches on for a very long while]

. . .

I do, yes.

[ ...oh. fuck. ]

I-if you would prefer not to talk about it-- i-it isn't any of my business, of course, a-and I don't want to upset you--

It's alright.

. . . Her name is Ilya.

[ IT ISN'T ALRIGHT AT ALL ]

...

Would you like to talk somewhere quieter...?

[Glancing around the shrine room... then nodding]

Mm, that's a good idea.

[ Nodding. Let's... idk, going back to Sparkles so I can make us tea and lock Emperor Saber and Aven out of my room '-' ]

...It's... not very quiet in general, here, but nobody will do anything very rude. They're good people and they won't listen.

[Followssss]

I'm not concerned. It's kind of you to invite me in.

It was easier, I think...

[ Motioning to her futon. FLAWLESSLY MADE!! despite. poisonfever. ]

If you don't mind waiting a moment I can bring you some tea...?

[Sits '-' The image of politeness]

I don't mind at all.
