[Usually, Usagi would just make this a text, but this was for Rei.

She took a deep breath as she looks at the camera, her eyes red and swollen, her nose red as well. She offers a wet smile before it falls away completely.

She takes another deep breath.]

For those of you who knew her, Rei Hino went- went home.

[Her breath hitches on that last part but she gets it out without a single sob or tears. Rei would be proud. She's done her crying, though, in truth, she's likely to do more later. Usagi knows she'll see Rei again, their lives intertwined, but it doesn't make her loss hurt any less.

Usagi debates for a moment if she should say anything else, pressing her lips together, and then lets out a breath.]

I know she meant a lot to many of you and those of you who Rei loved, she loved you fiercely, I can say that with certainty. [Rei never loved by halves.

Usagi is silent for a moment and then nods. She leaves it at that, at a loss on what else to say.]

[Minako understands how much it can hurt because she knew it hurt the both of them. Minako herself just figured that the most important thing to do was be there for Usagi first before dealing with her own pain.

So Minako went and and wrapped one arm around the other, the freehand then being used to gently stroke her head as a way of comforting.]

It really , really sucks doesn't it? Like royally.

It does! [She sobs out.] It absolutely does. [She didn't know Rei wanted to go home, maybe their conversation had been her trying to suggest it and Usagi had so blindly MISSED it because she was so focused on herself? There was nothing wrong with going home but oh how much it sucked to lose her.]

[Minako held the other close. If it was all she needed she would keep a hold until the other wanted her to let go.]

We should do something. It's nice to do something nice for those who do go.

[She never wanted to let Minako go, scared, in that moment, of losing her too.]

I- maybe we should write her name on a protective charm and tie it to a tree and burn some incense for her?

[Action]

[loveandduty]

That sounds like a nice idea. Though which tree will we be tying it to?

[Was there a special tree? She figured there might be, but if not she is going to make one the special tree.]

[She nods.]

If... we can find one, I think... a weeping willow. Ami-chan's and my first gift to her for her birthday was a music box shaped like a rain tree, the willow tree looks closest to that music box.

Then we just have to find a weeping willing. Making it the super special tree.

[Sounded like a nice idea especially with the memory behind it too.]

I'm sure those who know her would love the idea too.
