&&. @phantasmaw moved from legacy !
❛ .. huh ... ? ❜ it's a soft sound that comes out at his answer —— taken aback. her features gently slackened, only able to look upon that bright smile with a disbelief / a pale moon so different. ❛ isn't that ... ❜ lips press together for an instance; trying to find the words— if no one knew you, if no one understood you, then wasn't that ... terrible. lonely. painful.
so how could he be so ... ? a listless gaze would remain upon the other, watches and listens his actions closely. he was so animated— even the simple act of having a drink appeares so ... lively. hakuno takes a sip of her own, a simple carton of strawberry milk, the action is swift and almost mechanic. not a change in her expression as she does so, one might've doubted the action, the only indication of it having occured being the couple of seconds of a pale pink observed through the translucent straw as she took a sip. ❛ ... that's true, i suppose. ❜ people are always changing, such a thing might even be inherent to humanity itself.
❛ do you speak from personal experience ? discovering new little parts of ... yourself. ❜ she doesn't really get it. the concept seeming understandable in theory, but inexplicable when it came to herself. it's blank / it's empty. a favorite painting— there's no way it could be anything like that, nothing more than just a blank sheet of paper. caramel hues met with amber, and hakuno's brows furrow just slightly. what an earnest gaze ... perhaps i'll only be disappointing you. ❛ i don't know. ❜ she says it as it is, bluntly and without any sort of emotion. her eyes appeared more vacant than how they usually are.
with a shake of her head, her gaze tears away — only distantly staring somewhere else, far far away. ❛ i don't think i understand, but maybe ... i was hoping someone could. i don't know. ❜
