june 27 | voice (backdated)

[After a day had gone by with the revelation of Riku's death and Sabriel having taken Kagami away to jail, Nike had shut herself away from her surroundings and everyone. The entire situation concerning them and other issues had affected her in a way she had never once imagined she would feel once more: despair. A despair she hasn't felt since she was a little girl. It was terrifying to be in her current state in a world that wasn't attempting to comfort her as it would back home. She needed to talk to someone. Someone that she wasn't afraid of, someone she could fully trust, and someone who would view the situation without bias and can offer advice. Saint Walker was who she thought of.]

...umm, I-I'm sorry to bother you, Brother Walker. [Her voice was unstable at best as she attempts to hide her true emotions with a tired and positive tone, but was unable to. She'll sigh before continuing on.] Don't worry though. It's nothing too serious...I just need...advice on something. Please call me back whenever you can. It isn't urgent...

[Brother. He has called many people that, but they have responded with either acceptance or, more commonly, confusion, and even revulsion. He keeps it up nonetheless because provided it does not offend them, it is a part of him, a part of his people. He means to keep it, keep them alive.

To hear someone call him brother in return... it takes his breath away for a moment, as if the past has come flooding back to him, as if his people have, in some small way, returned.

He cannot dwell on such a thing, not when Nike needs help, but the title means more to him than he could possibly express.]

Anything that is important to you, sister, is urgent to me as well. What do you need? Do you prefer to speak on this in person?

[When he returns the call, Nike almost wants to tell him not to fuss, it wasn't important, she simply needed advice, but none of those words could be said. Instead she will accept the concern for what it was because he would still feel concern and place importance to her feelings regardless of the way she felt. It was his nature to be as thoughtful and perspective as he was. She couldn't lie to him for that and an even more important reason: he reminded her of home. And right now, she needed that -- someone from home to listen and keep her calm and help alter her perspective a bit.]

A-Advice and guidance...for one. I...I don't know what to do right now. I feel very angry and bitter and disgusted with someone I don't wish to feel towards, but I can't seem to stop feeling that way. [A short pause.] ...if you can come over, I would appreciate it...but if you can't right now then I don't mind just talking. I need someone to keep me from wanting to talk to the sky right now... [The idea of allowing her surroundings to swallow her up sounded tempting, but she really did need to think, not avoid her problems right now.]

Sometimes, we must feel these negative emotions in order to fully process them, [he says, but his voice is gentle as he says so.] Do not feel any shame towards yourself for feeling such a way, Nike. All it means is that you are alive, and that you are alive enough to feel, and to feel strongly.

But that is not to say that you must feel that way for a prolonged length of time. If we speak on it, perhaps I will be able to help you. I will come now -- you simply need to tell me what city you are in, and what address you reside at, and I will seek you out.

[Then, kindly,] I can speak with you on my way there as well. There is no need for us to cease conversation while I am in transit.
