Private Meeting [closed]
Who: Amaterasu & Wendy
What: Private meeting regain
When: Sept. 29
Where: The Meeting Hall
Warnings: N/A
[The young woman in white and gold at the front gate of the Meeting Hall clearly hadn't expected tears. She tries calming motions, which would be more calming if she weren't holding a naginata; she tries reason; finally, she casts a harried glance at the other guard and disappears inside.
The other guard produces a tissue packet and otherwise tries to look as though he's part of the landscaping.
Fifteen minutes later, the woman returns with a thoroughly startled expression, bows to Wendy, and gestures to the door.]
Lady Amaterasu has accepted a meeting. Please follow me.
[She's clearly trying hard for a professional, formal demeanor, but the surprise keeps leaking through into little sidelong glances at Wendy as she leads her through the old wooden halls to a tall door with gilding on its carved surface. She pushes it open to reveal an empty room with a raised dais at the other end and a cushion lying in the center of the polished floor, ten paces from the edge of the dais.]
Wait here.
[She holds the door open until Wendy enters, and then lets it close, taking up a position just inside and to the right of the door with her naginata held stiffly vertical in one hand.]

Like I said, just contact Venus. I'll use her phone for now.
no subject
Okay.
I'll be sure to do that. [And, with an uncertain smile, she adds:] Thank you...
Is there anything else that I can help you with, Wendy?
no subject
Feel free to call me for anything, okay? Even if it's not about this!
[It's the least she can do for a fellow kid.]
no subject
[She opens her mouth to say something else, then pauses, with a slightly distant expression as if listening to something Wendy can't hear.]
Oh... I'm sorry, I have another appointment! But I promise I'll let you know about the location.
[She scrambles back to her feet, brushing down her robes, and nods to the shinki at the door, who steps forward with a bow.]
Shoten will show you back to the entrance.
no subject
[Hopping down off of the dias herself, Wendy grins and waves to Amaterasu.]
I'll see you later, then! Remember, call the Venus number in there!
no subject
The next day, Wendy will find a nicely wrapped package at her door, containing her phone, with a short handwritten letter:
Thank you so much for thinking of me, Wendy!
I couldn't keep this phone, because I think you need it more than I do. I wrote down your phone number, and Venus's, and I'll call.
Good luck with your shelter.
