[Ah... her face falls a little at that, but there's definitely a look of sympathy there.]

I understand how that feels. When my parents died, I just tried to ignore those feelings. To just bury them like I buried everything else inside of me, without addressing it or even attempting to cope with it.

But you... at least you're still willing to help people. You still try and hope for the best. An I admire that ability to at least try to be optimistic.

If I don't, who will? Humans are so fragile and live such turbulent lives, it's often much easier for them to be negative. [It takes a certain amount of strength to keep going with the idea that everything will be all right in mind, not that Botan would say she's strong for it.]

Tell me about your friend, I'd like to hear.

[defyingfrigidity]

[Elsa would probably argue that. Even if Botan isn't human in her world, she acts just like a human would. So in theory it'd be much easier for her to be negative than positive, and yet....]

... Did you know Asami Sato at all?

[styxiedust]

No, unfortunately I didn't. But that just means you can tell me a lot more about her, doesn't it?

[defyingfrigidity]

[Is that... a blush on Elsa's cheeks? It's easy to tell, with how damn pale she is, but she's trying her best to ignore it.]

Oh, I wouldn't want to bother you with such things...
