This is Cassandra Igarashi. Leave a message.

Thank you, Cassandra.
I am fine. I've just had a bit on my mind, but I truly think harming someone isn't in her nature. To watch someone die is a terrible, terrible thing.

It is. And I hate that I know that.

You sure you don't need anything from me, though? I'll check on Utena, don't worry.

No, I'm fine! Besides, these thoughts of mine will only bother me as long as I allow them to.
I simply need to focus on something else.

If that’s what works for you.

Thanks for letting me know, Haru. Come by sometime if you want. I think Martin would like to see you around.

Do you think he really does?

What? Yeah, of course, why wouldn't he?

That time we could only speak the truth to one another?
Well, it... I am not sure how to put it, but it was somewhat awkward. I think I upset him.

Haru, you know he wouldn’t blame you. He’d only blame himself, which is its own damn problem, but still.

He has... troubles with his confidence, doesn't he?

That's putting it mildly. But he's getting better, at least.

Has he ever explained why?

No. And I don't think I should be telling people even if he did. It's pretty fucking worrying sometimes.

Perhaps one day he'll have more confidence.
Until then, I'll do my best to help him with it.

That's good of you, you know. I know you're way older than him in teenager years, but he doesn't really have friends his age. I wish he did.

Perhaps we should do some sort of matchmaking for him.
But a matchmaking event for friends?

God, no, that sounds like an absurd amount of pressure.

But...it's not like I haven't wondered about some of the kids like him, here. He could stand to meet some of them.

Is he interested in socializing with any of them?

Maybe? Probably not. He’d do it if we asked, but it’s not like I want to force him.

I don’t know. Kids are difficult. No wonder I’m not the parenting type.

I think you do just fine with Martin.

I suspect most of that is Rex, not me.

I am sure you have fine maternal instincts!

Oh, no, we're not doing this. Did you know I had people think I was the "Team Mom" of the Pantheon just because I was the oldest? Bullshit.

I never thought a title like that would be so bad...

[ Because as the Empress? She's the Mom. Makoto and Haru are Team Mom together. ]

You don't perceive it as an honor?

No, I perceive it as people who don't actually know shit about my life making assumptions about it. It's not who I am.

I mean- have you had to deal with the media here? I try to stay out of it.

[ A delayed response. ]

I have been fortunate enough not to deal with the media here as I have had to back home.
I understand better now, however. Your life is your own; not to be spectated on by strangers.
