4th Course - Salt [Video]
[In the late evening, the video suddenly turns on as there's a loud thump and a splatter, like something wet just hit the ground next to the vine. At the first, the picture is dark and its hard to make out the shape there. A trembling silhouette, hunched over as it rises unsteadily off the ground - the form seems small and thin, but draped in lengthy darkness - hair? - but also the limbs seems somehow... too long. Claws?
What little light there is reflects off the eyes of the cats coming to greet the new arrival, but as they draw closer, they hiss and their hair stands on end before they turn and run. The figure in the dark collapses back onto the ground again, curling up, shrinking in on itself.
For a moment, all is still. Then there's a soft, muffled noise as that huddled figure trembles. Sobbing. The vine finally sheds some light on the situation, illuminating the curled, dripping wet form of Kazumi, curled up in a glen on the grassy floor, clutching herself and sobbing quietly. It's a few moments before she opens her eyes, looking around, noticing the vine for the first time. She looks helpless, lost, but her first question isn't "Where am I?"]
Who am I? What am I?

... So, I took a route that I didn't know that well for the return trip.

...it's okay.

[And thus the door opens, and Sayaka runs off to grab some towels, behind another door. Feel free to sit on one of her two couches, though that may not work out due to wetness. Or check out the kitchen in sight.]

This should be enough, right? [And a though...] ... Oh right, you're probably going to need dry clothes too... you don't mind using some of clothes, do you?
no subject
[Kazumi picks one of the towels up and starts quietly drying herself off. Luckily her body's all back to normal again by now, other than her being really listless and tired. With the initial panic gone she's just... really exhausted.]

Sorry if they're too big. I'll, you know, turn around now. [That's just decency.]
no subject
[She quietly accepts the clothes, stripping out of her own and drying off before putting the new ones one. It's... definitely a lot warmer. At least now she isn't shivering]
no subject
... Are you tired?

[Heck, she looks like she's about to fall asleep right on the couch right now already]

Hold on a moment. [She walks off one final time... and then a blanket comes out.] I figure we might need this.
no subject
[She's just. Really tired now. Too tired to think about any of it anymore. She just wants to curl up and go to sleep and never wake up again]

Thank you. It's just all been really... really...

Be quiet, sleep time is now, okay?
