005 Video; UN: Filledwithsunshine
[It's not entirely obvious when Snow White starts up the video, just how much pain she is in. She's still smiling but it's a bit more subdued. She's even paler (somehow) than she usually is. She also has a bandage on her neck. Her animal friends around her are deeply concerned, watching her carefully and Faramund, her giant stag is staying pressed against her side as if supporting her to stay upright.]
Why hello everyone!
My goodness, wasn't that jungle such an interesting place! I've never seen some of the animals there before! They were so nice, though. [Snow had struggled in the jungle not because of the animals but because of the pain she's currently in just for existing. But her pain tolerance, despite her appearance, is ridiculously high.]
Oh, but! That isn't why I'm speaking with you all.
I'm sure we've all noticed those terribly large blood boils coming up all over the place. And while the bloodhounds are doing a marvelous job getting rid of them, well there is just SO many of them the poor things can't get to all of them. Not that they don't try, of course. [Snow being Snow is yes, slowly befriending them.]
So, I'm going to tell you how I get blood out of clothing! And walls, and floors, and furniture, and windows, and really anything else! Especially since the blood splatters don't smell very nice. [That's one way of putting it.]
Thankfully, getting blood off the walls and floor are the easiest to clean with a good strong brush and bucket of scented soap! But I do know the rest can be very tricky.
So if you would like any help, please let me know. Blood in on fabriced furniture can be especially tricky.

[ Chizuru really dislikes saying it, because she doesn't want to worry the other. But on the other hand - it's not like she wants to lie either, and the truth is that vampires don't really have many weaknesses where Chizuru comes from.. None that Snow White would be able to put into practice, anyway. ]
Maybe you could see if it might not happen again.. Maybe they'll move on to someone else. [ Which also isn't great, but maybe that'll be a person who can deal with this sort of thing and teach the vampire a lesson. ] But if it keeps happening, then.. um, please contact me!
[ Chizuru nods, trying to seem as determined as she can, despite being such a soft and gentle girl. ]
I'll do whatever it takes to make sure they leave you alone, please don't worry..!
no subject
[She winces as she reaches out to take Chizuru's hand and give it a weak, gentle squeeze.]
Thank you for doing this for me, but you don't have to!
no subject
No, I want to do this..!
[ After all, it feels unfair. For a vampire here to do that sort of thing to someone without asking, and then on top of that to do it to someone who seems as young and sweet as Snow White.. It just doesn't feel right, and Chizuru stares at the other girl while she allows her hand to be held like that. ]
Besides.. it's my duty. My name is Chizuru Yukimura, and I'm the page of the vice-commander of the Shinsengumi. [ Usually she doesn't do the entire formal introduction like that, but it feels relevant here, and it might make letting her help out feel more natural to the other. ] Protecting those who can't protect themselves.. That's is what I am supposed to do, so please don't worry about it.
no subject
Oh, that's really so kind of you, Chizuru, thank you so much. And I am sure you will make a wonderful vice-commander yourself someday!
no subject
[ Something about that last statement on Snow White's part definitely makes Chizuru start to look flustered almost instantly. After all, she never even dreamed of becoming anything like that, and the sheer mental thought of her in that position is..
Well, it sure is something. Something wild.
Which makes her quickly shake her head. ]
A-Ah, no, I'm definitely not vice-commander material..! [ Definitely not. She could never do all the work Hijikata does! ] I'm already happy as long as I can help keep other people safe, you know? That's why I was so worried about your circumstances here..
no subject
Although, if you think about it, aren't you the commander here in Trench? No one else from home, isn't that so? And you're carrying on the duties of your profession.
no subject
[ Apparently Chizuru hadn't stopped to consider that for even a moment. It's obvious from how surprised she looks in this moment. Her eyes are so wide right now. ]
I.. I don't think that's exactly how it works.. [ She gently points out. Not that Snow White is wrong, but.. ] I don't think it would be much of a group or an organisation if it were just me, you know..?
[ Besides, she'd be way too flustered to ever think of herself as a commander in any scenario. ]
no subject
You're already offering to help me, after all, and you certainly don't have to.
no subject
I'm.. definitely not a leader. [ That much Chizuru knows. She's a very, very good follower, but a leader? Someone who'd gather people and tell them what to do? To inspire them, and keep them together?
There's no way she'd be able to deal with that pressure. ]
I can try to do my best to help out individual people where they need it, but.. um, gathering people and all.. I'd really be no good at that. [ Unlike Snow White and her army of animals. ]
no subject
Still, thank you for doing even that, some people don't help anyone at all.
