13th Magic Bullet

[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.]

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?

[Yuna watches the basketball as it sails into the net and then rolls away, turning back in Souji's direction afterward.]

...Nice shot.

[Though she still can't really look him in the eye.]

[ He watches, hand on hip. She's oddly nervous, but he doesn't have to reason very hard why. ]

Yuna.

[ He's calm, and, seemingly normal. Can there be such a person who is so indifferent about getting killed? ]

Don't worry about last week. No one was themselves.

[ Apparently so! ]

Man, you're taking this a lot better than I thought. I mean, I did shoot you dead, y'know.

[She rubs the back of her neck, trying to laugh it off.]

[ Small chuckle. ]

I got shot in the head by someone else a few days later.

[ Shrug. ]

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Geez, you're pretty tough. You're not even mad at me or anything?

[inababanchou.livejournal.com]

Nope.

[ Buddha. Also, he really doesn't seem phased. ]

We've all done horrible things last week.

You too, huh?
