Usagi was sorely tempted to sit down. She wanted to, of course. She wanted to be beside Rei at every opportunity when not with Minako and Haruka. She wanted to hug the other girl tight and assure her that things would be alright, to tell her everything.

She could pick up on the hint and wondered if it would be wise for her to sit down. But then, when had she done anything wise? She swallowed and took a seat next to Rei, yet couldn't bring herself to look at her. She focused on her knees because if she looked at Rei, she would want to hug her.

Maybe this was a bad idea.

"I'm sorry to hear that, Miss Hino," she offered gently. "And that he got fired." Fired... wait, fired, no one rescued him, so where had he gone! She swallowed and couldn't help but wondered what being 'fired' meant in this place. Was he okay? She prayed he was. She wasn't sure she could bring him back in this place.

"Is... is there anything I can do?" she bit her lip. Was that too forward again? Too much? "I understand if you don't want to, of course," she offered quickly after the question. "You... know... if you don't mind my saying... sitting alone on a park bench isn't going to help you get distracted."
