[ it's a dark and — well it's just a dark month and ahiru never really functions well in the dark. she gets spooked easily which is sort of what happens here. a sequence of events, by a duck.

1. she enters the kitchen. the lights are off and she bumps into various furniture. ]

Ow ow ow ow —

[ 2. her hand brushes against a coat hanging on top of a chair. in her mind, she imagines a snake.

3. She panics and lets out a loud: ]

Quack!

[ 4. ahiru ends up turning into a duck on screen. gasp! not that she has realized she's being recorded.

5. she quickly waddles off and there's the sound of water and she comes back into the kitchen with a relief. ]

— Phew that was clo . . . ooooose, O-Odette! Were you displaying this the whole time?! A-Ah!!

[ ahiru immediately runs in front of the feed, waving her hands frantically. ]

You didn't see that! There's nothing to see! It was . . . uh, uh, a MYSTERY DUCK that broke into the house but it's gone now!

[ alas, ahiru has been well and truly outed as . . . a duck. ]

I know. But you know... I don't think you would know what to do even if you were human. [ even if she says being human is easy, it really is not]

I don't have an answer either.

But I think you deserve to be happy. [ she is just a little kid after all. Even if a duck]

[danserai]

[ that makes sense. it's not as though ahiru thinks she deserves the worst, but she struggles with her own self-esteem. ]

Everyone does.

[anthropophagite]

[ ah... yes. Of course ]

Yes. Everyone does.

I hope you are able to find a way to stay human.

[danserai]

Thank you. I probably shouldn't be looking for that. I should be doing more productive things.

[anthropophagite]

I don't think there is anything wrong with multitasking.

besides, if there are other people who wish to become human too, perhaps you can help them as well.

[danserai]

Really?

Do you know anyone like that?

[anthropophagite]

[ Himself.......

but he isn't going to say that ]

Well, no. [ liar. kaneki is a lying liar ] But there are many people here and all come from many different places.

We are all bound to find someone who knows what we are going through, right?

[danserai]

[ hmm. ]

I guess that's true. I can help look for them. Maybe we could all work together!
