@aaternum ⟡ starter call.
❝ uhm… ❞
a call just above audible and a few seconds of considerate silence, her hand tightens around one corner of the papers she’s been carrying between check-ins and sachiko turns just one more time in case someone—anyone, would announce itself in these minutes of unusual hesitance.
come now, it shouldn’t be entirely out of place to have other slayers visiting the white feather state for a little rest considering how far some missions where from the main headquarters, it maybe was just that—well, she couldn’t remember how long it had been since they had served anyone who wasn’t in immediate danger ( and apparently at least, whoever that girl was seemed to be in fairly good health—a true blessing since the number of cases they had received over the last weeks ).
❝ excuse me ❞ she tried again, little louder this time. ❝ are you... waiting to visit someone, perhaps? ❞ biting the inside of her cheek and trying to discern if the other was sound asleep or maybe just thinking to herself ( preferably, the latter—as she would have hated to interrupt her rest when it was so valuable for their work at nights ).
