30th Teddy Bear [Action/Written]
[Action // Thursday, September 22nd]
[It's been eight days since her father left, and despite her searching, she hasn't found him. But this was Luceti. He was here even though he couldn't be back home, so obviously he'd just reappear here again, like mama did! With this knowledge firmly in place, and when school would begin--after a few days of staying home, courtesy of a worried mother--she would carefully sneak around after class was over to survey the forest nearby the building. Not enter it. But listen and squint into the dimness of it.
He might be there. They don't know. Just because all of his stuff went away... maybe the robots took it all, too!
Sleeping in mother's room is a must, for now. For both of them. It makes it a little easier, having someone to hug in the mornings or bitter earlier hours.
She answers the door with a determined sort of look on her face, but it falls instantly when she sees who it is. It's not your faults, really. She's still happy to see you, and the small, shy smile a few moments later says as much. It's just... not what she was hoping for. And then, sitting outside became a habit. Well, it was always important on her list of things to do—to sit on the porch and draw or play. Playing can wait. Just for a few more days. Papa might show up. Gotta stay vigilant. No time for journals, or anything like that, right?
... M-maybe just a little journaling. But nothing new. No... she can go back to old entries and look at them again. Any tears? Well... She cried a little, when it first happened. But crying now would be bad. Shikamaru said it, he told her before when she ripped her doll:
Crying didn't fix anything.
So. She would try not to cry. Even if it was... growing harder not to.]

[Though not too soon. Presea does have a bit of a walk to do, even if she's walking with a bit more speed than usual. She's even brought something for Elicia once she arrives. Presea has no idea what the strange animal is, but it was soft and squishy. It was among Presea's old toys when she had a family. Many of them she kept, but had no use nor need for them.
Maybe it'd cheer her small friend up.]

Quietly, Presea sets the stuffed toy down by Elicia's hands, and sits beside her. Something deep down in her chest aches, and she hums a song from long, long ago...mommy's lullaby for them. She almost forgot it. Maybe, hopefully, it could help this little girl, who reminded Presea of her own little sister...gone from her world, back home.]
Re: [Voice | Action]
Mama...
[It's a quiet little word. Before, when papa had to leave... she'd make her feel better with songs. It made her feel at ease.]
[Voice | Action]
It's just...not fair. And it made Presea angry, and sad, that Elicia had to suffer like this. But she doesn't show that. Her face is calm and blank, much like when she first arrived. But there is a tenderness there, in Presea's eyes, as her song draws to a close.]

... Miss Presea...?
[Action]
I am here... Are you feeling well, Elicia?
