Prospekt saw the scars through her fingers. "Why were you punished?" He asked, reaching to touch them as well seeming worried.

"Stealing, mostly," Takara replied. she flinched when he touched her, but more as a reflect then from any discomfort.

"Don't they just toss you in a cell when you steal?" Prospekt said having no real experience with the law. He removed his touch.

"Not always," Takara said. "It depends on who you steal from, and where." She felt a tear slip out of her eye and down her cheek.

Prospekt looked up to Takara's face and saw the tear. He wiped it away gently. "What did they do to you?" he asked after a moment of contemplation at the appropriateness of the inquisition.

"It varied," Takara replied. She lightly traced the ones on her arms. "This man thought it would be fun to sic his dogs on me."

Prospekt felt bad for Takara, he knew that she deserved the punishment, but he did not think of her as a thief. "I'm sorry." He said. He went to hug Takara, but realized the complications with his arm would make it awkward and painful, so didn't.

"No, I'm just a dirty little thief," Takara said, turning away from him. "I should just be thankful I can still use the arm." Then she stood up. "I shouldn't bother you anymore." She started to walk away from the room.

"No!" Prospekt said holding up a hand to stop her. "Your not bothering me." He said quieter, realizing how loudly he had said the previous word.

"You received your scars protecting your homeland," Takara said, stopping. "I got mine from my own selfishness. They do not even compare, and I should stop trying."

"I got these wounds from youthful stupidity." Prospekt said lowering his hand slowly. "It is nothing to be proud of."

"I suppose." Prospekt replied. He patted the bed next to him, inviting her to sit. "But did you have a choice?" He asked.

"Than choose to stop." Prospekt replied. He reached and grabbed Takara's wrist and pulled her to sit. He smiled comfortingly.
