I hope everyone's okay now! Cleaning up after all that is HARD but at least my house didn't get hit too bad... Does anyone need help with anything after last week? Oh, and speaking of my house, we just added a bunch of expansions! We've got an indoor pool now! Friends can come over whenever! I think I know most people on here anyway, and Mary-chan's got a bunch of friends too.

Also also! During that whole thing I tried the full shapeshift. You know, the dragon skill that changes you on the inside and not just the outside? I did it to be more giraffe than I already am because I thought it would help me fight. And it was like, whoa! I could see everything! And hear everything! And I kinda kicked a guy into a wall! Does anyone know how to deal with sensory overload if I ever do that again because it's kind of a lot and by kind of I mean a lot a lot.

P.S. Hina-chan's turning one on the 7th! If you're friends with her come over then! We'll have blood cake and regular cake.

It is a little difficult to adjust, yes. When I fight, I need to balance whether it is easier to see my opponent's movements, or to block out the overwhelm of that extra information. Then again, I try to avoid wearing my glasses where I might damage them to start with.

You might be right about Hina-chan, though, especially for those people she has known a while now.

You must think a lot about a lot of things... is that why you're so strong?

[Rinku you're gonna make her blush.]

Well, part of my strength comes from my nature as a monster, but... I became strong out of necessity. To protect myself and my sisters, and the life I had with them.

Here in Ellipsa, and in the Grail War I was summoned to, there were people I needed to protect, as well.

So long as I could keep standing and fighting for their sakes, no matter happened to me. That was enough.

...Someone here told me once that people look to me as a symbol of protection, long after my lifetime ended. I admit I am not sure what to think about that. I never intended to be a symbol for anyone, or to be admired.

I don't think a lot of people do. They just do what feels right for them, and then if it helps others or makes them happy, that just happens on its own.
