[So. They Bastion has a hospital now.

Seeing as how several people got pretty hurt, it might be a good idea to use it.

Or you can mingle and talk to people, if you want. Now is a time for resting and relaxing after a difficult day.]

Later in the onsen...

[Hi Auntie Rin-chan.

You don't have to talk to Tama-chan, okay? But Tama-chan and her mama are worried about you, so Tama-chan followed you here. Tama-chan's here now. So she'll quietly rest her head in your lap.]

[hellpyre]

[But Auntie Rin-chan did a bad thing and she doesn't thing she deserves to have anyone worry about her, even Tama-chans.]

[individuates]

[then a head in the lap isn't enough, is it? Tama-chan's just going to have to get a bit closer, close enough to lick Rin's nose gently.

It'll all be okay - okay?]

[hellpyre]

[But it won't be okay, and the gesture just makes tears well up in her eyes again.]

[individuates]

[But Tama-chan's here. Tama-chan doesn't care what you did. Because you're Tama-chan's Auntie Rin-chan and Tama-chan loves you and will stay here and give you little lick-kisses until you feel better.]

[hellpyre]

[Is crying better?

Because that's what she's going to do.]

[individuates]

[Tama-chan isn't fluffy and not good for soaking up tears. She can try to lick them off occasionally, but maybe Auntie Rin-chan would prefer something to hug? Tama-chan likes hugs, and if it helps you stop feeling sad, even a little bit...]

[hellpyre]

[She was trying to resist hugs, but damn it... no, she can't do it. It hurts too much.

A sob escapes, and she pulls Tama-chan close, letting her tears fall freely.]

[individuates]

[some soft little noises and more gentle licks and nuzzles letting herself be squeezed like a plush toy. It's okay, Auntie Rin-chan, it's okay.]

[hellpyre]

[She's still going to cry, but at least she has something to hold on to until the sobbing stops.]

[individuates]

[and Tama-chan will still be here when Rin's done, her tail thumping lightly against Rin's leg. She gives up on the licking, tongue just hanging out for a little while in what is really supposed to be an expression of concern but just looks a little derpy, ready for when the tears become less a downpour and more like a trickle to start up again.]

[hellpyre]

Th... thanks...

[The tears are still there, but they do slow eventually. Chances are this is going to be an on and off thing for a while.]

[individuates]

[Tama-chan will make herself comfortable in Auntie Rin-chan's lap and stay here, then. Even if mama comes to find her, she's not moving. It's Auntie Rin-chan after all. Mama won't mind!]

[hellpyre]

[Rin is alright with this, and she might even lean back on the rocks and rest an arm under her head.

If she falls asleep like this, hopefully some one will come along and wake her up.]
