Talking About The Options

So we all know that Rita's making a birthday party for Hayate, and the kid needs it. But I think she could also benefit from having some sort of guardians for her, to take care of her for a few days at a time. People who won't be missed in their worlds for too long, depending on what goes down.

I can only look after her in my own world, and even then papa'll wonder why the heck I've got a ten year old.

So I'm asking this now: volunteers. Please. We need to watch after her. I don't like how she's ten, living alone, with a sponsor god knows where. What happens if she falls or collapses?

Also, if any of the kids here could spare time to go play with her, that'd be really appreciated.

Talking With Hummy

[The slamming of Hibiki's door drew attention from the nearby mirror that was broadcasting the interior of Hibiki's room as she threw herself onto the bed.]

Stupid Kanade... why doesn't she understand?

[Hummy is there, along with several of the Fairy Tones as they circle around and sit down.]

Hummy: You shouldn't be fighting, what about your Harmony Power?

I'm not fighting with her, Hummy I just... I don't understand her sometimes. [She picks the cat up and holds her up over herself.] She doesn't understand that I'm jealous of her really.

Hummy: Jealous?

Jealous. Because she's got a sibling to take care of, and she yells at him all the time, making him feel angry and upset. I'd love a sibling, but mama and papa aren't planning on having another. And besides... she and I are trying our best not to argue anymore... so I don't want her to worry.

Hummy: Your Harmony Power is unbalanced though. If you get into a fight again...!

I'll deal with that when it happens, okay? Right now I think I need to rest up or something.

[Sighing a little, Hibiki looked up at the ceiling before sitting up.] She's got to learn that Souta loves her at times and she can be too harsh...
