🍭 voice / action for shehui roommates

[pigii]

[ unfortunately, this wholly accidental broadcast of thoughts isn't a very pleasant one. around midday, while the interrogations are still taking place, the sounds of a young girl's sobs are transmitted through the signet's telepathy. those who have interacted with ruby are likely to recognize her voice, but you don't need to know that much to understand that something bad has happened. ]

I'm so sorry... I didn't mean to tell...
 
[ the apology is repeated intermittently between her sobs. she doesn't seem to be very consolable... with what's been going on today, it might be obvious as to what she's talking about. for roommates, the door to the room that she's being interrogated in bursts open as her outward sobs can be heard, but only the monitor seems to be visibly there.  ]

awesome! sorry for this super late tag, just found it.

I'm glad! I did my best to draw it for you.

[It was clear she wasn't much of an artist. Her only source of creativity was singing, but that skill overlapped with a whole other skill she has more talent for.]

Thank you. You sound like a very sweet girl. What's your name? I'm Nike!

[And after a few moments of thinking about it, she'll send her another telepathic message of another image.]

And I look like this! Just so you know, if you ever notice me around.

[....sort of, but it is the way she views herself as: plain, but filled with energy.]

no worries!

[ ruby can relate to that much, but the effort itself is enough for her to appreciate the gesture. it makes her feel a little less crummy, if anything. ]

I-It's nice to meet you! [ it even gets a little giggle out of her! ] Um... I'm Ruby.

[ it's still a little strange to be introducing herself personally to so many people, but she thinks she's getting the knack of it! ]

Your hair is really pretty, Nike-san.

<3 !!!

It's really nice to meet you, Ruby-chan!

[The other girl's tone and giggle was enough to get a happy smile out of Nike. She was just happy to hear it was helping her feel better.

Maybe a little too better? The compliment given came out of nowhere that Nike almost wanted to use her usual "it's a very normal color in my country" type of response, but she didn't have the heart to do it. Not after being complimented and making a new friend!]

A-Ah, thank you. I really appreciate the compliment. It's a hair color that I share with many of my relatives. Although, it's a rare color outside of my country. I haven't seen anyone else with it in the other kingdoms I've seen. What about you? What's your hair color?
