Characters: Neku Sakuraba and Commander Jane Shepard
When: 5/6
Where: Shepard's apartment
What: After his 'walk' with Joshua, Neku has a lot of thoughts bouncing around his head. Who better to spill them to then a certain sister-figure? Gingers unite

The last person Neku had expected to see again so soon was Joshua. Though, thinking on it, he wasn't surprised. After all Mr. H had told him (and not told him, Neku was sure) it seemed almost destined that the Composer would show up, as if arriving just to ruin this budding equilibrium he'd managed here.

Before he would have just hidden away. Now he had people around he could... confide in. It felt strange even considering it, but he felt that if he didn't say anything he'd explode from the pressure. As such he ended up on Shepard's doorstep, knocking lightly and wondering if the older woman would be off the pain meds by now

Oh, Shepard is off her pain meds by now. She's gotten rather used to the tempo of pain that goes with her breathing, but she's careful to keep breathing properly. She vaguely remembers something from one of Joker's stories about pneumonia, and this is the last place she'd like to get that.

She's cleaning her useless guns in the living room, mostly for something to do with her hands. She feels restless already, but the kids will worry if she leaves. She has her d-terminal on the couch next to her, because Monodramon is napping, so it's her turn to watch it.

She's surprised by the knock on the door. She sets down her shotgun and stands up to go get it. She isn't too surprised by the person in the hallway.

"Neku? What's up?"
