Shh, shh, Makoto soothes. It's okay.

' - It's not.'

It will be. What you've done is past. We have the whole future ahead. You can change. You can make things better. I will help you.

She makes a high pitched noise. 'Only humans and wendigo are food. Food makes hunger worse.'

Permalink

Just because the solution isn't immediately obvious doesn't mean there isn't one. We can find something.

Permalink

Considering noise.

Permalink

We know I can help at least short-term. I'll talk to some other people and try to find out more.

Permalink

'...Thank you.'

Permalink

You're welcome.

Permalink

The Beast nods. 'There are - many threats. To the small ones.'

Permalink

Yeah. I'm working with Nausicaa's Nanny to come up with a plan.

Permalink

She makes a soft noise. 'Big wendigo. Coming. Mountains.' Her emotions dip towards grief again, and anger, and frustration.

Permalink

I'll put that on the list. Do you know when or how soon?

Permalink

'No. Not - a week. More.'

Permalink

Okay. Thank you.

Permalink

Nod. 'Just. Help.'

Permalink

I will. Who was that you were working with just now?

Permalink

Shrug. 'Doesn't talk. Protects a kid.'

Permalink

The angel, maybe.

All right. I'm going to go talk with the Nanny now. Will you be all right by yourself?

Permalink

'Yes. Think.'

Permalink

I'll be back later, if you're still in the area.

And Makoto heads back to the house.

Permalink

The Nanny's there, on the front porch, keeping a watchful eye on the neighborhood. "Anything wrong?" she asks.

Permalink

"I met Nausicaa's friends. And I helped a wendigo fight off a flock of trees made out of brick."

Permalink

"Demons. Then it's not just the boogeymen riled up... And a wendigo. Those are rare."

Permalink

"We talked for a bit. Apparently there's a big wendigo headed this way in a week or so, from the mountains."
