The outside world slowed, stilled... stopped.
"No. No, no, no, no, no, nononoNO! Lea-LEAVE ME ALONE! PLEASE!!!" Miroru screamed into the face of a tempest. The storm dominated her inner world, plastered the white and red cloth of her outfit to her body, matted her fluffy orange hair to her head, over her eyes. The wind was blowing so hard, she could hardly stand, tipping and stumbling just to keep her feet. The grass underfoot was a web of rivulets pouring into the lakeshore, and the lights of the foxes in their shrines was barely visible.
The massive eye beneath the surface of the lake itself was perfectly clear, though- despite everything, she could see the FOX just fine.
Words echoed into the storm-torn sanctuary of Miroru's inner world. Most of them were too muffled to make out. They weren't Shinde speaking. Some other girl. Then Shinde's voice cracked past the storm, distant but clear enough, at times, to make out.
"~~~~ ~~~ ~ell's your probl~~~ ~~~ ~ust trying to smooth a debate with a fri~~~~ ~~~ ~~ll are you threatening me f~~~ ~~o even are yo~~"
Lightning snapped the stormsky overhead as Miroru hugged her middle. "That's... that's not what happened..!" Miroru screamed up at the sky. "You STOPPED me! You TOUCHED me! I didn't want any of that! You wouldn't LISTEN!"
And she never will. You see how she behaves. She evades the truth. Sidesteps, redirects. Manipulates. You would not cow to being held hostage, so instead she tries to twist your heart and loins to favor her instead.
"I said leave me alone!" Miroru yelled towards the lake, squealing as she was almost thrown off her feet by a blast of wind. "This isn't your concern!"
It isn't my concern when my host is disrespected? Trapped? ASSAULTED? You knocked the Grass boy unconscious for simply SEEMING like he was trying to LOOK at you. THIS WHELP GRABBED YOU. She DESERVES your fury!
"My fury, m-AGH!" The wind threw Miroru off her feet and into the grassy mud underfoot. She slid, groaning, and fought back to her knees. "Maybe..! But not... yours! Not what you want me to do! So just... go back to sleep! I'm not... hurting... anyone!"
THEN YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BE HURT UNTIL YOU GIVE THEM REASON TO FEAR DOING SO. Stop the cycle NOW. STRIKE her!
"Mi-chi?"
In a heartbeat the rain stopped. The wind continued, the stormclouds roiled overhead, but the rain was gone. Miroru panted, in the mud, rainslick and pale.
"Let me help?"
Staring at the clouds,
Miroru tilted her
head briefly. Down, up. A nod, halting. One hand fell off her head, planted on the ground for support as the other moved to cover her face. She could see... not Shinde. Someone was in the way.
"... I-chi..." A slow breath, untangling ragged, scattered panting. "... Onee-chan." Breathing room. Safety. Itsuki had waited for her to respond. Probably out of caution- not everyone could rock burn scars as well as Azarea- but she appreciated it in the moment anyway.
"Just don't give up on me! We can figure this out!"
