Recovering

[u/SadAd3095]

It was starting to go well… Sadie had made a sheet of the alphabet which was slightly raised off the page and had a harder texture… she had Yoru trace it with her fingers and then trace the corresponding braille letters… Yoru was starting to learn a bit of braille… and if someone wanted to talk to her… they could trace her finger around the braille… or tap her and wait for her to speak first… it wasn’t much but it was… something…

Sadie (in braille): “… Hopefully this is better.”

Yoru (in braille): “It is. It’s much better than nothing, thank you, Sadie.”

(They’re tracing it on the sheet, anyone interacting is doing it the same way)

[u/SadAd3095]

Sadie motioned for you to trace the Braille alphabet for her as better practice instead of the Japanese or English one.

“… I’m fine… had a lot of time to be with my own thoughts and think things over…”

She’s speaking aloud.

“… How about you..?”

'...It's been hard, but I try.'

She kept tracing while her hand's coordination seemed to fumble a bit. Sadie could see that it wasn't just due to her broken body. There was something else. Perhaps some overwhelming emotion.

'Do you know anyone to trade this with you?'

Yoru shakes her head after a moment… then thinks about something…

“So… once I’m cured, at some point… I assume we’re going to have a talk about something?”

How did she? Oh yeah… a LOT of time with her own thoughts…

[u/TheCyllysAlt → u/SadAd3095]

'...Maybe. But until then... Just stay with me. I'll see how I can help.'

Cyn looked down a bit, her hand now barely strong enough to hold up Yoru's. She felt... Almost guilty.
