19th Healing | The Disappeared
[[ Video ]]
She hasn't been around for a while, but... Eva-chan is gone.
And this time around, I feel like a lot of people have disappeared.
[ Normally, Konoka tried to hide her negative emotions, but by the look on her fact that was an impossibility now. She hadn't really done anything for Valentine's Day, but any thoughts of making up for that went out the window. So Konoka's grave face paints the video screen. ]
There's been so many people I've met throughout my time here, and so many are gone.
But life keeps going. New people show up. It's kind of like... the cycle of life, but sped up.
[ It seemed like she just now reached that conclusion. ]
It's weird. It feels unfair, and to be honest, I don't know what to do... outside of keep doing what I normally do. But it still hurts from seeing the impact. I guess that's all I can really say.
[ And Konoka shuts off the video. ]
[[ Action | Fayren ]]
Konoka... will largely just take to staying around Amatsu and her store. Now that she's no longer a deputy, she has a lot more free time. At Amatsu, Konoka may be seen at one of the lounging areas, idly staring into space or petting one of her Pokemon, who seem to be pretty aware of her conflicted misery. At her store though, she's focusing hardcore on paperwork and spells. Hey, just because a mentor is gone doesn't mean that she can slack off on studies. And seeing how things are mean that she needed to get a healer's system up and running sooner rather than later. She'll greet anyone with a smile and help, but anyone who knows her might see that she may come off mildly distracted.

Re: Action
But Mavis has also been a guiding hand for her, especially since she started with her deputy run. She wouldn't know what to do without her.
Konoka set aside a table that the both of them could sit at.
Action
"It's better than great. Wait until you see it!" She opens a cardboard box and reveals one of her favorite treats: strawberry cheesecake. It was undoubtedly coming from a bakery or most likely Mokona's Cafe. Mavis was fairly good at baking but not _that_ good.
"I took strawberry milk to go with it, too!" She two bottles with straws, and a knife and forks on the table next to the cake.
Re: Action
Fortunately, she wasn't quite at that point, so she settled down and didn't eat until Mavis settled just opposite of her.
"Gosh, you really prepared!" Konoka marveled. "I don't think I've eaten anything cake-like in the past two weeks!"
Action
"Two weeks?" She shook her head. "How did you manage to last so long?" It was a genuine question. "And Fairy Tail always comes prepared! It's one of the guild's mottos." She winked.
"So tell me about those cake-less weeks..."
Re: Action
Konoka gave a polite shrug after she savored a bite. "I just went with the occasional cookie, I guess. Desserts are really only good if I get time to really savor them, and I don't get to enjoy them if I'm staring at a TV or something."
Action
She paused. "Eating cookies on your own might be a little light... to help you deal with missing someone you cared about." Her expression was somewhat more serious now. Still, the smile quickly came back to her face. "But I'm always here to help. That's what old people like me are for, after all." Because they know what it's like.
Action
And then why Mavis seemed ultra-concerned about her only eating cookies clicked. Konoka's smile again fell without fully disappearing. "Yeah, I suppose I needed to indulge a bit more. I... just really miss those people." Konoka started to look sad even as she continued eating. "They were how I managed to get strong."
