Heather could be found easily sleeping on the couch, her missing arm finally grew some bone and muscle could be found slowly grown back around the nub of bone. Growing things back without the use of fresh cells takes FOREVER and too much out of her.

She blinks at the sound of a door opening and moves her hand to rub at her eyes.

"Anyone there?" Still sleepy. Ayup, not noticing the scent yet.

It's me, Heater! I'm back! How are you? Have you been...

[He sees her arm and stops short.]

[Oh hey! She knows that voice and she is instantly awake and trots over to Eric.]

Eric! [Oh gosh, so happy that he is back! She hurries to attempt to hug him before it sinks in that he is in shock.]

Eric?..... What is it?

You're arm. W-what happened?

[She winces as he brings it up and moves the now boney stub about.]

Ah! It's growing back! However slowly... I was just playing with Terry... And two bad people came and surprised me...

Bad people? Heather, I'm always telling you to be careful.

Yes, I recognize one of them from when I was sick during my chip removal. The other I didn't but that one acted funny.....

[And that one responded to that one post. Which was strange and her mom didn't act mad at him.]

And I was being careful! I was just playing with Terry, minding my own business.

You know the city isn't safe here. You KNOW that. You shouldn't have been wandering around on your own.

Sorry.... I am sorry Eric...

[Eric sighs. He holds out his arms to her, inviting her to a hug.]

I'm not mad at you. I'm just upset that you're hurt.

[She blinks and goes to move into his arms, closing her eyes.]

I won't stay hurt for long.... My body can heal faster then a human body.

[And she is planning payback already. Sweet delicious payback.]

I will be more careful... The ringleader of the two has really funny looking ears.

Nevermind the ears. I know you'll heal now, that doesn't mean you should be careless about being hurt. [He gently presses her head against his shoulder.]

[She nuzzles a little against his shoulder.]

I am still sorry.... If you want, I can show you what he looks like exactly... Sans an arm.

If you like.

[He has a better idea now, that Sai is not the little girl she appears to be. But, he still can't shake the feeling that she is one, and treat her as such.]

[She studies him a moment before attempting to pull away. She will be a little as long he desires her to be and Sai does enjoy the treatment he gives her.]

Just don't freak out...

[She closes her eyes and her body goes through a couple of spastic movements before her shape goes to change into that of Tatsumi.]

He still has both arms but this is what the ringleader looks like.

[Okay, shifting back into her natural form, AKA Heather's form.

[Eric startles as she changes for, staggering backwards. It takes him a second to catch his breath, but he manages to speak normally to her once she changes back.]

A-all right.

.....

[Okay, she is going to hug herself a little and looks away.]

I don't really know why I can do that.

[He steps forward, touching her cheek.]

There's a lot neither of us understand. [He remembers what he saw, and shivers for a moment.]

But that's all right.

[She goes to look up at him at the touch.]

I bet the answers are trapped within the forgotten memories of mine....

[She feels the shiver and goes to look away again.]

... But is it really alright?

Edited 2012-04-14 19:40 (UTC)

Yes... it is... Few of us are Human here, I think.

.... I wonder what I really am if not human.

I'm not. And, believe me, precious, there's nothing special about being human.

[She goes to stick her tongue out playfully.]

It will still be nice to being able to know just what I am exactly.

Sai, the things I saw were... disturbing. Maybe you're better off...

.... You saw something to do with me?

[He nods]

Pictures... in my mind...

What? What did you see?

[A part of her is watching him closely but more importantly to her is.... Is that he finds out what she is.]

[He sighs, remembering the tubes, the water... the disturbing images. He shivers.]

Heather, please. You don't want to know.

[She blinks at his reaction and goes to let out a sigh.]

You won't tell me even if I ask you even more.

[She reaches over to try and hold his hand.]

.... Don't worry..... I won't ask anymore.

Because it's what's best for you. I promise. [HE knows she's not, but she's still a little girl in his eyes.]

If you say so... [And she will stay a little girl as long as he likes for her to. Okay reaching over now to start scratching at the nub. It ITCHES!]

[He looks at the nub, touching her shoulder gently.]

Are you... all right?

[She blinks and stops her scratching at the touch and nods her head.]

It still hurts but mainly itches... A lot.

Is there something that would make it better? Or... uh.... heal? (is that the right word?) faster?

[She goes back to scratching the nub again before going to think...]

Meat might help.... Fresher the better...

Meat?

[She goes to nod her head looking away.]

B-B-But I can wait for to it to heal normally!

[DON'T GIVE HER THAT FACE!]

But it's not healing, it's growing back.

I can get you meat it's not a problem.

It's the same thing is it not?

Really?

No it's not. A human may heal from such a wound, but not grow a new arm.

....... [She goes to look towards it, staring.] Is that so?....

Yes... it's true. The would would heal, but there wouldn't be re-growth. I'm afraid you're still something of a mystery.

[She goes to remove the bandages from her nub and just touches the injury.]

At least you know more about me then me.

I... don't even know WHAT I know... or understand it.

[He kisses the top of her head.]

So don't worry about it.

[She closes her eye at the kiss and slowly.]

Alright, I will do my best not to worry about it.

[She closes her eyes then and goes to lean fully against him.]

We'll go to the street, find which way the water is running, and go the other way. That's a start...

[He rubs her back.]
