Once we make it to the sidewalk outside of the school building, Mina stops and tugs on my sleeve.

"Hey, Cecile?" she calls out.
"Hm?" I turn to her. "What's up?"
"Umm, you want to come over and hang out or something?" she asks. "It's been kind of gloomy at home, and I think that Marcus and my parents would be happy to have you visit..."
"Uh."

I feel like SUCH an asshole right now.

"Sorry," I say, drooping down. "I was already going over to Charlotte's after class today. I men, I'd just call her and say that I'll visit some other time, but the main reason for the visit is to ask her about that split personality stuff, and..."
"...oh," Mina sighs. "That's okay, you don't have to feel bad about or anything."

Her saying that makes me somehow feel even worse than I already did.

"I mean it, you don't have to feel bad," Mina says, slapping me on the back. "Just promise me one thigh and I'll forgive you for abandoning me for another pretty face."
"...huh?"
"If anything happens, call me once you get a chance and tell me about it."
"Happens?" I look at her with a puzzled expression. "like what?"
"Yanno, something worth telling me about," Mina shrugs. "Fighting, romance, anything of interest. I'm sick of being the last one to find out."
"......romance...?"

I can feel my face getting warm.

"C'mon, we both know you like Charlotte," Mina teases. "So if anything -happens- between the two of you..."
"Um- uh- well-" I stammer. "yeahsurenoproblembyeeeee!!!"

Before she can follow up her insinuations, I run off in the direction of the hotel. Far away from the embarrassment.

She probably still has Loki watching over us so she already knows we're on our way, so calling her isn't really needed.

Should I call Charlotte to tell her that I'm on the way?

Nah, I already told her that I'd be over after school let out. Calling now would only be bugging her, and I don't want her to think that I'm clingy or anything.

Plus, she game me a key to her room so I can come and go as I please!

After making sure that I do in fact have said key on my person, I make a beeline for the hotel.

As I pass through the glass front doors of the hotel, I can't help but feel kind of surprised at how short a walk that was. I'm too used to coming here from home...

"Ah, if it isn't Miss Charlotte's friend!" a high-pitched voice calls out to me.

Oh God. Please don't let it be who I think it is.

Filled with dread, I turn to face the owner of that voice... and just as I feared, it's that creeper who kept trying to suck up to us.

"H... hello..." I say, waving weakly to the creepy creeper.
"I've been seeing you a lot lately!" the man says with a big fake smile. "I take it that you've come to visit Miss Charlotte again?"
"Yeah," I say as I try and ease over in the direction of the elevators. "She's expecting me, so I really should get going..."
"Oh, well I could always call ahead for you!"
"No, that won't be necessary," I say, shaking my head. "I have a key, so..."
"Oh, I see!" he says, clapping his hands together. "Well don't let me hold you up, then..."

You've held me up more than enough as it is, you creep.

Having gotten away from that guy, I head to the elevator and rush inside the second the door opens, then insert the keycard and press the button for the top floor.

This feels kind of like I'm in that one cartoon that Theresa likes... the one where the student council ride the elevator to a castle balcony or something where they swordfight.

DING

The door opens and I stroll out and head straight for Charlotte's door. Once again using my handy keycard, I slide it in and then open the door.

"Hello?" I call out. "Charlotte?"

That's weird, nobody's here? And come to think of it, I didn't feel any Synapse when I got here... crap, maybe she's off doing some...

There is a low growl coming from the direction of Charlotte's room.

"Ummmmmm..."

Slowly, I back away from the glowing eyes that I see approaching me from Charlotte's room. She's growling and I can almost FEEL the pressure coming from her, but Milla's my friend kind of, right?

And I think there's something about not running away from large predators because then they think that you're prey and will chase after you. Nope, I'm gonna like... hold my ground.

Yeah, that's it.

"Hey, Milla..." I say, carefully holding up my hand without making any suddem movements and waving at the large cat. "Nice to see you again..."

As Milla creeps through the doorway and out into the hallway, I feel myself instinctively tensing up. There is a large predator standing in front of me and I don't know what she's-

"Mrr?"

Milla looks me in the eyes and, uh... just kind of saunters over to me, all of the bloodlust that I'd been feeling up to now having just completely vanished.

"Eheh..." I laugh nervously, "... long time no see, huh?" I say as I crouch down and CAREFULLY reach out to pet the giant scary dangerous predator's fuzzy head.

She's purring.

Oh my god this is adorable.

Should I snoop?

I mean, Charlotte isn't here... I could totally snoop and not get caught. She's probably hiding some kind of secret documents on Branch stuff that she's investigating, or maybe her boss's secret business deals or something.

...well, I don't really care about that last one. It'd probably be more interesting to go poking through her closet, see the different dresses she has there.

And then wherever it is that she keeps her-

Hahahahaha no I am not going to do that let's go over to the couch before I end up caught red-handed digging through her underwear drawer.

>[1/?]

>>34474383
Well, we can do that and sleep at complete our original goal, Alison would most likely support it too.

>>34474526

>>34471623
Is it bad that I was thinking the black man has an amazing voice through out the video?

>>34474524

"C'mon, Milla!" I call out as I walk into the living room and toss my backpack off before plopping down in the couch. She may have given me a key, but that doesn't mean that I can just go and dig through her belongings.

I don't think she'd mind me just hanging out, though.

And so, I spend the next however long it is relaxing on the couch while petting Milla. I feel like one of those rich fancy ladies you see in the movies, and I like it.

"Just like a queen..." I say out loud, laughing to myself.

After a while, I start to find myself getting bored. I mean, petting Milla is nice and the sound of her purring is super relaxing but it's also getting kind of old.

And then I remember those videos they have online with cats.

And then I remember that I have magic light powers.

For the first time in quite a while, I decide to do something other than playing around with ambient light. holding my hand out, I concentrate on the space above my palm and gather up my own... there we go!

It's a little fuzzy light orb.

Willing it to float away from me, I guide it directly over Milla's head...

"Milla, look!" I call out in a singsong voice. "C'mon, get it!"

In a splitsecond, my furry cat friend switches back to predator mode.

SNAP

Milla's head jerks into the air where the orb was, and her laws snap shut... but once she realizes that she didn't actually eat anything, she backs away to better assess the situation.

And there's the light orb, still floating where I placed it before. In order to tease her a little bit, I will it to move back and forth like you would a laser pointer...

...and that sets her off.

Raising one of her front paws into the air, Milla's claws extend and she swipes at the light as hard as she can, only to find that it's still there when she draws back her paw.

I'm starting to enjoy this.

Back and forth, my little light swings... and Milla does her best to catch it to no avail. Changing up my tactics, I start to move it a few feet at a time before "wiggling" it in place until she lunges at it, only to move it out of the way at the last minute.

back and forth

up and down

CRASH

"oh crap oh crap oh crap," I mumble as I stare at the ruins of what was once a wooden chair. But it's nothing but a bunch of splinters now, thanks to Milla's monster strength.

>>34475055
That'd be fantastic right up until she tried to sit in it.

>>34474991

Immediately realizing what she did, Milla backs away from the remains of the chair and rests her head on the floor. But this is my fault, I'm the one who was playing around without paying attention... dammit, I hope Charlotte isn't too mad at me for this.

With a long sigh, I walk over to the kitchen and dig around through the cabinet until I find some garbage bags, then grab one and make my way back over to the mess and start putting the busted chair fragments in the bag before someone ends up stepping on them.

And JUST as I finish, I hear a familiar cawing as the door to the room opens...

>>34475055

>>34475084

"Hi, Cecile," Charlotte says, waving as she enters the room, "I'm sorry that I wasn't around when you got here, but I had a bit of snooping around to do, and-"

She stops talking when she sees the bag of chair parts in my hand.

"CharlotteI'msosorryIdidn'tmeantodoit," I stammer. "IwasjustplatingwithMilladon'tbemadatherit'sallmyfault!"

"Milla, go stay in the corner until I say otherwise," Charlotte says in a stern voice.

And of course her giant cat does exactly as she's told.

"Sorry for not calling to say that I was on the way back," Charlotte says, "but I saw that you and Milla were playing and I didn't want to interrupt..."
"N- no, it's fine," I shake my head.

Oh yeah, Charlotte can see through the eyes of Milla and the others. But I wonder...

"Hey, Charlotte," I say, holding put my hand.
"Hm?" Charlotte tilts her head in a puzzled manner.

And then I form another fuzzy light, suspending it a few feet away from Charlotte's head and jiggling it around like I did when I was playing with Milla.

"Umm... what is this?" Charlotte asks, looking completely confused.
"Uh, it's a light..." I say with a weak smile. "I was playing with Milla with something like this, and, uh..."
"And you thought that I'd react in the same way?" she asks.
"...maybe..."

Just as I'm feeling REALLY stupid, Charlotte walks up to me and pulls me into a tight hug.

"You're just really cute sometimes, you know that?" Charlotte laughs. "It makes me wish that I could keep you here with me forever.
"Eh... eheh..."

>>34475979

My face is burning up and I'm feeling really lightheaded... why'd she have to go and say something like that all of a sudden!? It's bad for my delicate heart!

"Y... yeah..." I mumble as I squirm out of her grip. "So, uh... where've you been today?" I ask, trying to change the subject to something that won't result in me fainting from embarrassment.
"Just a bit of investigating," Charlotte replies. "Mina gave me the address of the place where your other friend was working, so I mad a bit of an attempt to do some digging as best as I could without exposing myself.'
"They didn't catch you, did they?" I ask.
"No," he shakes her head. "I myself can't get close to there in case that... -gentleman- with the scar or any other Branch users were around, so I had both Loki and Rhaccy doing surveillance for me."

Oh course she'd be mad at that pinwheel guy.

"...oh yeah," I mumble. "That."

I was dreading this.

"You said that you've been hearing voices?" Charlotte asks. "What kind? I mean, do they tell you to do things, or call you names, or..."
"Mostly it keeps quiet," I shrug. "Until something happens to make me mad, and then it tell me to 'remove' whatever it is that caused me to get mad in the first place."

"Have you lost control at any other times?" Charlotte asks. "Acting weird or yelling at your friends or anything like that?"
"No, I don't think so," I say, shaking my head. "These two stupid-" I cut myself short. "These girls at school started some stuff today, but I didn't hurt them even though I REALLY wanted to," I say, glaring at nothing in particular. "B- but that wasn't because of any voices, that was my own temper there."
"If you say so," she says, patting me on the head.

With a sigh, Charlotte makes her way over to the couch in the living room, and motions for me to follow her.

"I really hoped that you wouldn't have had to deal with this, Cecile..." Charlotte says, placing a hand over her eyes.

"You mean this isn't something that you had to deal with?" I ask. "I'm not gonna die or go insane or anything, am I?"
"No, I went through the exact same thing," Charlotte says, shaking her head. "Shortly after my parents threw me out, I started hearing a voice that claimed that it was the demon that my parents had been trying and failing to exorcise, and now it was going to make me suffer because I was a child of evil..."

R... really? That's like the kind of voices that they sy that serial killers hear.

"At first it started as an occasional reminder that I was trash whenever I was about to ask and actual human for help, and then after I'd given up on civilization altogether it started to tell me to go back home and get revenge on my parents... take my place as the actual witch of the forest that I grew up in," Charlotte says.

>>34476638
Well when one thinks about it, there's no way CC & co can deal with this, since they're agains big huge organizations. They can't hide either because they ping on the radar. They can't go rogue because when they eventually piss some organization enough they get swatted down by a branch-holder hit squad that is big enough to deal with them. The only way they can get a normal life is to get rid of the power.

Oh God... what Charlotte told me about her childhood was already awful to begin with, but I had no idea that it was even worse than that...

"That... that's horrible," I say, wrapping my arms around Charlotte and pulling her close to me.

It's starting to sound like all of the Branch split personality things are psychotic in some way.

"So... how'd you manage to deal with it?" I ask. "Is it still telling you all that stuff even now?"
"It was pretty bad at first..." Charlotte replies. "I shunned everyone and withdrew into myself, scared that I was potentially dangerous and would end up killing someone by accident. And for maybe a year, I lived out of a cave and only had the company of whatever birsa there were around to bring me berries and stolen food from humans, I was so close to snapping."

I don't even know...

"And right around that time, when I was at my absolute lowest, the... 'demon' decided that then was the time to attack," Charlotte says with the exact same frightening look she had on her face when staring down that werewolf from yesterday.

>>34477042

>>34477026

"...attack?" I ask.
"Yes," Charlotte nods. "I was at my lowest point mentally, which was its goal from the start. You see... it wanted control of my body, and -I- needed to be out of the picture in order for that to happen."
"How..."
"It needed two things in order to attempt this..." she says, pointing in the air. "One was for my Branch to have fully realized. The Tree of Life calls it 'Full Bloom.' That's when the final ability of my Branch developed... I don't think I told you about it before, but I trust you so I guess there's no point in hiding it anymore," she says with a weak smile as she pills back the sleeve of her dress.

Is this related to how easily she was able to wreck that girl yesterday?

"Any of the animals that I form a strong bond with like Loki or Milla or Rhaccy, I'm able to imitate their physical abilities as well," Charlotte says. "Milla's strong so I copied her musculature," she says as she flexes her arm, "and owls have the strongest grip of all birds so I mimicked that, along with his talons," she says, showing off her sharp nails. I have a few others as well, but I don't want to overdo it because then I'd end up looking like some kind of monster," she sighs.

>>34477173
This. We can't betray the trust Mina and Theresa has put in us. We can still advocate giving the book(s) to Charlotte and telling her about Theresa's powers, but it has to be their choice.

>>34477192

>[3/3]

"...I went on a bit of a tangent there, sorry," Charlotte mumbles as she pulls her sleeve back down. "So it needed by Branch to be in 'full bloom,' and also for me to be in a weakened mental state," Charlotte says. "and that's why it had been spending the past few years beating me down and ruining anything that I could have done to keep myself together..."
"So then it tried to...?" I gulp.
"Yeah," she nods. "It tried to take over my body by way of subsuming my personality... entirely."
"s- so what did you do!?"
"I fought back," she says with a sharp gaze. "I fought back and I didn't give up. It tried to..." she trails off. "It felt like it was trying to -eat- me, but I wasn't so weak as to be taken over by that THING. And after what seemed like an eternity of fighting off a monster in my open mind, I killed it and I've been voice-free ever since."
"...so you..." I stare at her.
"That's right," she nods.

"D... do they all try to do stuff like that?" I ask. "Try and break you down emotionally, I mean? Because mine seems to want me to act like it would, taking what's mine and destroying whatever threatens or annoys me."
"Well, not -all- of them," Charlotte shakes her head. "Some are content to act as a conscience, guiding the Branch holder to act in the manner they think is right... and others are happy just sitting back and watching them live their lives. I mean, one of those split personalities is more loyal to its Branch holder than anyone else I know... but most of them end up like mine did. Myself, Mr. Gauthier... most of us end up having to fight off an attack like I did, or risk being subsumed entirely."
"...oh."

"Would you mind if I asked you a personal question? I know now's not the best time, but..."
"...personal?"
"Yes," she nods.
"Uh, okay?" I shrug.
"Your friend... the one with the braid, are you and her, um..." she starts blushing.

That's roughly my feelings on the matter as well.

But since we're on the topic, and we're also in autosage, HAHA TIME FOR TOMBOYS.

>>34477679
Not that guy. But personally I'm still miffed about Teresa's whole back story. I'm not a forgiving person and the whole "Sorry I totally ditched you guys for track and the track crowed I totally learned my lesson after breaking my leg!" Irks me. Char has been straight forward with us, brought CC out of the closet, and is currently here and able to assist her with the whole "Remove" problem.

>>34477727
Nobody is perfect.

>>34477743

I've always hated that excuse. For me it follows the, "fool me once..." scenario. She's abandoned her friend/lover once for a trivial goal. It wouldn't surprise me to see her do it this time around for JUSTICE BECAUSE SHE HAS SUPERPOWERS!

>>34477679
I just think they'd make a cute couple. All those nights of sleeping in the same bed, all those cute dresses, all the spaghetti. They're both shy and sexually inexperienced, and I'm a sucker for a story of a couple exploring their sexuality together.
Not that I'm expecting any smut in any of Arch's quests.

>>34477727
>"Sorry I totally ditched you guys for track and the track crowed I totally learned my lesson after breaking my leg!"

That's Mina's version and it's the kind of things that happen between teenagers.

>>34477743
No, but that doesn't make that an invalid reason for not being terribly enthralled with someone.

The guy who blasted his car through my fence while drunk a few years ago wasn't perfect, but that excuse sure didn't help keep his insurance rates from skyrocketing, or the legal system from lovingly destroying his asshole over the DUI.

>>34477790
I'm reasonably sure that's straight up what we heard from Teresa.

"I- I mean, I'm not trying to offend you if you're not interested in girls, but she kissed you and then you went to stay the night at her house, and, um..." Charlotte starts to trail off as her face becomes redder and redder.
"We're not!" I stammer. "I do like girls and she does have a crush on me and all but we're not a couple or anything!"
"Really?" Charlotte looks really relieved all of a sudden. "O... okay..."

She looks really cute when he smiles like that.

"S... so you wouldn't be offended if I said that, umm..." she starts fidgeting.
