"... sure, I guess I don't mind."

She shrugged. It wasn't like she preferred being alone, she actually had a decent amount of classmates she got along with. Friends? Not quite, she didn't really talk to them outside of class that much.

Picking some more flowers, she started to arrange them into++

Those that burn brightest, burn fastest.

"... you were a lot to her, trust me. The few times I could visit her she mostly spoke about you and Sayori.. not to mention she usually had your blanket on her most of the time."

She was her sister though. She deserved to be at her side.. unlike those two, she had been there for her whole life++

Of course she has. It's been five years for her, after all. Time tends to flow differently in the multiverse at times though, so..

She's a couple or three inches taller than Kaori was.

"... my sister's grave, why do you ask?"

It was a good thing- for now- that she didn't recognise her. She++

"Don't sweat it. Not even the doctors did, and they're medical professionals."

... she's trying to show some empathy. After all, Celia did lose someone important to her, too, even if Shiori doesn't like the fact that she couldn't visit her as often due to feeling awkward whenever her or Sayori++

She feels her stomach twist a bit. Of course. She can save someone else, but she couldn't save Kaori, could she now..? The thought of it is making her clench her fists a bit, but she shakes her head.

"... I'm sure she'd be happy to know you're trying to save someone else."

That's the most she++

[ writing.fox ] I can try to see if I understand enough, or look up English lyrics for it if you want.

Probably the latter, I don't think I can understand enough Japanese just yet.

[ writing.fox ] Oh wow that has never happened to me before lol. Didn't think posts could get marked like that just off written content.

Good to know, and good to see that moderation is decent in this site, even if this was a RP response, blocking messages that can lead to suicide does feel right.

She shakes her head, sighing.

"So time hasn't passed here..? Well.. this is awkward."

She's feeling a little guilty for her aggressive behaviour. Even if she still dislikes Celia.. she also doesn't like seeing friends of her sister hurting, especially about her.

".. you should take better care."

"... for what? It's been years now."

At least for her it has. The multiverse is weird and wacky though, so..

"... you know, you should kinda eat more. And sleep more. I dislike both you and Sayori.. but I know Kaori wouldn't want to see you treat your body like this."

She's frowning a bit.

"Yeah, no shit. I'm her sister."

They happened to just barely miss each other a few times back at the hospital..

"... and yeah, she did deserve better."

She's holding back her tongue. The desire to say 'it should've been you instead'. Because she knows that wouldn't be fair either...

She doesn't seem to recognise Sayori straight away, luckily for the coral- well, I suppose greenette would be more fitting now.

She's staring at those flowers on her hair.

"... can I grab some?"

She was planning on visiting her sister's grave, and those flowers looked.. just like her favourite++

"... what are you staring at?"

[ writing.fox ] Just a little heads up-

Don't expect her to be too nice. Especially to those who were close to Kaori.

Then again those people have read the manga so they could've likely imagined that.
