Currently holed up in a burrow in a tree, Haru pulls out her journal from her backpack to look at the last time she writen in it. She winces when seeing that it's been roughly 15 days since her last entry. docs.google.com/document/d/1j4…

She was looking up at the night sky, sitting on a tree branch. “Yd maycd dra cdync rana muug hela. E secc rusa…” Harumi takes a deep breath only to wince in pain. She slowly runs her fingers on the numerous bandages on her to check if they’ve reopened.

She was back home. Being in another world was something. Fun being one of the words she’d use. Right now she’s watching the snow fall from her window.

“With the holidays fast approaching, going to need some ideas on what to do. I am tempted just to put on an oversized sweater and sleep.”

“And if not sleep, oversized sweater with a book and a cup of hot chocolate.” She didn’t jump this time.

Just because it’s dark outside doesn’t mean she isn’t going to build a snowman for fun.

Despite it being cold and there is snow on the ground, she’s not going to let it stop her from dancing.

“I wonder if I should host a holiday party one of these days? Real question is if anyone would show up?”

“Looks like it’s snowing again. Think I’ll make a comfy blanket pile and take a nap.”

“🎵Everything burns! Light it up, let’s go! Light it up, let’s go! Everything burns! Light it up, let’s go! Light it up, let’s go! I’m on fire burning brighter Than anyone alive🎵”

“What to do on that day…”

“Merry Christmas.”

“Happy New Year.”

“I should visit my former home world. Maybe even stay for a few days.”

“Almost time for that time of the year. I wish I could ignore it.”

“It feels colder than usual today. But the phantom warmth is still here. I never want it to disappear.”

“Spring is here which means rain that will eventually give to many beautiful, colorful flowers. But you’re not here to witness it…”

“I need something to hug.”
