[Well, the milk has worn off and Yuna's basically done cowering in her room and moping.  She still feels bad, but she knows it won't do any good to just keep sitting around feeling sorry for herself.  The first thing to do is apologize to the town, and then try to get on with her life.]

[Phone]

So, um... I wasn't really feeling like myself last week.  I know I did and said some bad things.

...Really bad things.

But I wanted to at least say I'm sorry.  I guess that's about it.

[Action; rec center]

[Yuna's got her basketball uniform from home back now, so that's some small consolation for what the town put her through.  She's got it on at the rec center today as she practices her shots on the basketball court.  It looks like she's trying to give it her all, but she's missing way more shots than usual.  Easy shots that even a beginner wouldn't have much problem with.  It should be pretty clear to anyone even remotely familiar with the sport that there's something on her mind holding her back, but Yuna just keeps on trying anyway.  It's the only way she knows to keep her mind from wandering to bad places right now.]

[Action; 1446 Mitchell Road]

[After several hours of failed basketball practice, Yuna heads for Negi's house.  She clutches her pactio card tightly to her chest, walking up to the house and ringing the doorbell.]

Hello...?  Negi-sensei?  Are you home?

[ There's a little more of that subtle grief in Garvi's grey eyes. ]

I don't know, Yuna. Pride? Ambition? Resentment? Corruption by the dark gods of Chaos? I don't think I'll ever know, not really.

...Sorry. It must be tough to think about, huh?

It is just the truth of what happened. Truth is amoral and neutral, though I aspire to it at all times.

[ Anyway... ]

Do not be crushed by what you may have done. Learn from your failings, if you can. You will be stronger for it in the end.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

.... [ And now Garviel wonders if he did good at being a father. Maybe it's hug time? He's not sure. ]

[Yuna picks up on the signal, gives a little laugh, and stands up on her tiptoes to hug her massive not!daddy.]
