Yui watched the anime with wide eyes, wanting to keep up but not really knowing what was going on. She blinked slowly, her eyes slowly filling with something, knowledge maybe. "Mizu!" Yui tried to sit up on her own, recognizing one of her friends. She was acting a bit fussy, it was clear that the girl was restless. In the end she lay her head against Mizuki's chest, quieting down once more to watch the anime that was flashing bright colors again. Yui wasn't interested in the plot so much as the funny characters doing strange things. Whether she understood what was going on was another matter entirely. The dark little angel seemed to be enjoying herself though, still sucking on the fingers she had newly discovered. Did Mizuki's fingers taste the same? Yui wanted to know.
She looked at Mizu's hand, grabbing it and flailing it around for a few seconds as she tried to put Mizu's fingers in her mouth. Finally she got one, sucking on Mizuki's pinkie finger. With Mizuki's finger in her mouth Yui seemed to quiet once more, her eyes settling on the screen as the hero ran to catch a sale at their local supermarket. Aria had been sent away to retrieve a stuffed animal, probably to give Yui something else to suck on that wasn't fingers. Her attention was slowly drawn away from the TV and towards the fake window, where it was snowing. Yui's eyes widened once more, glimmering red and wondering about the snow outside. Could she suck on that too? What did snow taste like? Was it better than Mizu's finger?
Yui released Mizuki's hand and closed and opened her own in the direction of the window. "Snow," she said, wanting to go outside to play. Even if she couldn't move around all that much, it had been a long time since Yui had last been outside. For months she had been inside of the tank and then in that small, windowless cell down the hall. The spark she had lost in there seemed to have returned, the little girl full of the energy that had been missing earlier in the day. It was as though her will to live had been restored, the fragments of a shattered porcelain doll returning to make her whole. When the door opened, Yui fell well expected it to be Aria with her stuffed animal. Instead, she was in for a surprise, Raven appearing and standing in front of the holo screen, blocking their view of the anime.
Mizuki was squirming too now, although she was doing it for different reasons than Yui. "Raven," Yui opened and closed her hands, it was clear that she wanted Raven to pick her up. "Yui is-Yui-Yui is happy!" She wriggled on Mizuki's lap, staring at her big sister. "Yui-Yui is-is happy because she-she can finally be with her big-her big-big sister!" It was clear that words were still hard, as though the child was slowly tasting each one on her tongue, figuring out how to speak.
