[One year. She's been in Luceti for one whole year, and not even an Auldrant year at that. So much had happened, that it was kind of hard to believe that it had only been such a short period of time.]

[Anise doesn't know if this occasion is really something to "celebrate", but hey, no point in letting the day go by without an announcement! So she props open the journal, putting on her best grin.]

Hey everyone! ♥ Cute Anise has officially been in Luceti for one whole year! So if you've got any presents, then you should hand them riiiight over! ♥

[Oh yeah, she had told Tear she would look into something...]

Anyway, how many of you here have pets? What are they and how do you take care of them? I've been thinking about getting a dog, but I'm always open for other other ideas! The house is just way too big and empty lately, especially when there aren't any presents around...

[Curiouser and curiouser!]

Are you sure you have no idea at all? Did you notice anything unusual around lately?

[broji]

[Aside from Asch's extra short temper and depressing attitude?]

Sorry, but that's all I've got right now.

Hmm...No, the house is pretty much the same. And anyway, even if there was something unusual, I don't know that Mr. Asch would notice it right away.

[failguardian]

Hmm, I guess the only thing we can do is keep an eye out then. It could be just the that worry thing you mentioned.

[SIGH.] Asch really needs more friends...

[Video/filtered]

[broji]

Yeah. I'm sure it'll come out eventually, though. Whatever it is.

[...Maybe. And hopefully not when it's too late to do anything about it - if it's serious. But he's not Noir, he doesn't like to weasel, and with the atmosphere around the house, he wouldn't suggest anyone try it.]

[Ginji laughs weakly.] Isn't that the truth? But I doubt he'd go looking for them himself. Not unless he met a friend by happy accident.

[failguardian]

Aren't you a pretty good friend of his though?

[Video/filtered]

[broji]

[Ginji gives a slow shrug.] Well, I'd say so. But then again, being a pretty good friend and being accepted as one are two different things.

[Still, that Asch gave him the option to stay in the first place rather than shooing him off counts as something. Maybe it's not friendship to Asch but, Ginji thinks, there's at least some quantity of trust involved.]

[It takes a few seconds for her to absorb that.]

You don't think Asch accepts you?

[Video/filtered]

[broji]

[Hmn...] As his pilot, yes.

As his friend? I don't really know.

[Video/filtered]

[failguardian]

He probably wouldn't let you live with him for so long if you aren't friends, right?

[Video/filtered]

[broji]

Yeah...Probably not.

[Unless, you know, the guy could really use some help and just doesn't want to ask for it. He'll give both Anise's opinion and Asch's behavior the benefit of a doubt, though.]

Thanks, Anise.
