she thinks, a little distant. but then it's nothing - it's just instructions. breathe in, breathe out. breathe in, breathe out.

[ ichiro - laughs, a little. it's sort of humorless, surprised out of him, but he lets this happen, just dropping down and letting beau pull him in, good arm moving to hook around her. ] Sorry. [ quietly. ] Habit.
... the last time I saw Manwol-san, I thought she was part of Chuuoku. [ a flash of static memory, there - the women who run the party of words, the dictatorship that runs his home. ichiro's brow furrows, angrier, angrier, and he shakes his head. ] ...least I can remember them both, now.

[ no resistance comes, when beau brings ichiro over to join him, and he instead just leans into them with a miserable noise in his throat. his eyes are wet, but it's obviously just as much frustration as it is grief. he's so angry, his temper grinding gears together in his head so that there's just a stream of squiggles and scribbles and grating thoughts for a moment.

[she's quiet, in the way she gets when she's concentrating. breathe in, breathe out.
there's anger in her, but she can't let it out, right now. she won't. instead, she rolls her shoulders a little, and redirects. she tucks them both close, and exhales slow.]
