Welcome to Gaia! ::

After returning the hug just as deeply, Fate stood back a little and wiped the tears from Kreigor's eyes. Her cheeks were slightly pinkened and tear stained as well. "Thank you..That's wonderful to hear.." Fate swallowed hard as she remembered her hopeless period. It'd occured a couple of times, actually. No one could understand how much Fate needed something good like this to happen to her right now. "I've been waiting for you to come back," Fate said, a little drained at the moment. "You're the only thing I had to look forward to..and even that was uncertain." Pain and relief, along with so many other mixed emotions, were expressed in Fate's deep, crimson and silver eyes.

Fate blushed as her friend tended to her face. "I know..It's just so hard. You understand." She smiled weakly. "But I'm extremely happy you came back..I don't care how long it took." Fate was glad to see him grin.
When Kreigor mentioned her arm, Fate blushed deeper at her new weakness and glanced away. "Oh, this?" She shrugged the sling. "As you probably know, the apartments blew up, and because I was on the second floor, everything collapsed around me and I fell through, I suppose. Along with this, I recieved a concussion as well." Fate rubbed the back of her head softly. There was no swelling. "I honestly don't remember anything. There was a loud explosion, silence, and then everything went black." Fate sighed and shook her head, running her intricuit nails over the cast. "I havn't bothered to find a healer..and perhaps this makes me blend in with the mortals better anyway. I'm sure shock arose when no one was found injured or dead.." Fate ran her tongue over her soft bottom lip. "..But I hate it. I feel useless." Ichigo, that was a lot of rambling!

Fate watched curiously as Kreigor held her arm. "It's alright..I'm tough, whether I admit it or not. You know this." She quirked a brow as his tactics focused on her arm. "..O..okay.." Fate held onto his shoulder. When Kreigor began to heal her. She winced a little and dug her nails softly into his shirt. Fate groaned, feeling the bone mend within her skin. "How..will we..get the cast..off?" She gritted her fangs a little.

Fate lifted her arm and smiled. Without missing a beat, she pulled off the sling and let it drop to the ground. Fate twitched a little and shook her head afterwards. She placed her arm on Kreigor's shoulder and blinked. "Easy there.." Her eyes got big at the site of his dagger. "..Well..if you can make it work.." Fate looked away and held out the deadweight contraption.

Fate nodded some. "I trust you.." Her arm trembled slightly as the cast was gouged. When Kreigor struck it, her arm jolted before the cast broke away. Slowly, Fate turned around and examined her arm. Dusting off some remains, she nodded and smiled abit. "Ichigo..Supashi-bo nasai," she bowed. Fate rolled down her sleeve and ran her once again functional fingers through her hair. "It is, how you say, better," Fate nodded enthusiasticly. Her inner Japanese school girl was shining through some.

Fate laughed gently as he sputtered out 'you are welcome'. "Close enough, I suppose. Close enough." Her eyes glinted irately. She decided not to say anything more about it.
"Well, I appreciate the help, sugoi. I guess I had better be going then." Fate turned slightly. Where was she going to go?

"Nani?" Fate turns back upon command. Narrowing her eyes some, she took the card from her friend's grasp. Blinking for a second, she looked back to Kreigor. "This is your..locating number, correct?" Fate had heard of these. That's what those dreadful boxes with buttons and hookups were on the street corners. Fate blushed a little and tucked it into her pocket. "Supashi-bo. I will keep this in mind." She smiled weakly. Fate wanted to spend more time with Kreigor, but where could they go? It's not like they had anything to talk about, either. He was dead to Mortis. "See you around, then?"

Fate nodded, smiling weakly. She turned, gritted her fangs, and sighed. Her spine had disitigrated.
