Twelfth Prayer: Some Flames Never Die [Action/Video] Late Afternoon
Video
[A video feed flickers to life, showing a teenage girl dressed in long, thick looking priestess's robes sitting outside the little shrine on the riverbank. And for once in her Luceti life, Rei Hino looks genuinely happy with how things are going. Everything has gone...strangely well...for her lately. Despite the invasion, the discovery in the tunnel, and all of that, everything was actually alright in Rei's little world. So much so that it seemed like an ideal time to have a little celebration for an event that had been pretty significant for her a year before. It's not much, she never expects a large crowd for anything she does, but then she's never been one for that sort of thing, either. And who knows, it may even help to lift people's spirits after their own troubles.
There's no sigh, no subtle frown, no vaguely irritated look in her eye. She's even smiling at the camera as she addresses it.]
Good afternoon Luceti. My name is Rei Hino, and as some of you might know...and some might not...I maintain a small shrine here across the path from Community House 2. I haven't broadcast about it in a while, but I thought today might be a good day to extend an invitation to anyone who might want a peaceful place to spend some time before the weather changes. It was one year ago today that Brave Vesperia completed building it, and it felt appropriate to mark the date with a little something.
[She gestures to some tables of food she's prepared or gathered from the shops and bakery, a variety of snacks, along with curry, pasta, and various other easy meals really. Rei can cook alright, but this was kind of last minute, after all.]
So please, come eat and relax. If you like, I'll read your fortune and give you a good luck charm too. I know things have been stressful lately, so please consider it. It may do you some good.
[A pair of crows flap into view, landing on her shoulders as she turns to look at the building. With a laugh Rei playfully runs a finger under one's beak and looks to the journal.]
And you know...it's strange, having been here as long as I have. I've had a lot of friends come and go, and seen a lot of strange and unsettling things. But looking at this building...it makes me happy. Maybe it's because it's like my home. My...real home. [Rei's smile grows almost wistful, weary even.] Does anyone else have a place like that here? A place that makes you feel at peace, maybe even a little nostalgic? I'd like to know...even if you don't come eat.
[And then she waves a hand, whispers a word, and the book closes with a sudden gust of wind. Harry would've been proud...]
Action
[Rei will be available at the shrine all afternoon after around 2:00, or if you like you can catch her earlier in the day in the shops with armfuls of food. Nothing too fancy is going on, just a little impromptu anniversary party.]

\[voice]
[Was she not clear?]
[voice]
[A beat]
Anyway, yes.

[voice]
Have you ever thought of it as home...instead of your own world?
[voice]
[voice]
[She never really thought of Haruhi that way,so this is a bit of a surprise.]
[voice]
[voice]
[voice]
[Even if it's not as if most people make that sort of conclusion until a year or more in. Usually two or more. If they make it at all. But still, she snickers at this]
[voice]
[Rei's voice goes quiet for a moment. Haruhi does not need to know about Fenimore.]
In any event. I don't like leaving things unfinished.
[voice]
It isn't good to leave things unfinished, no. I'd be surprised if you were that sort, though.
[voice]
[The picture in the journal is of an honest, open smile.]
[voice]
[ ... Or well ] I don't mind if you think of it as a compliment.
[... so much better]
[voice]
[She...likes permission to think for herself...?]
I've done what I can with the shrine, but fighting...I'm not much for that.
[A lie, and not a lie. Mars is a different person.]
Still, I wish there was something more concrete I could do.
[voice]
[ ... ]
Right now, what I want to do, is unite us with other enclosures.
[voice]
[voice]
[And really, a part of her blames Luceti's people for that.]
Besides, I've had amicable relationships with people from Excenn and Zompania just fine.
[voice]
On missions? Or on drafts or something?
