Fission
Lin shrugged in reply as the elevator slowly rolled to a stop, before leading Chihiro out to make their way to the second elevator that went all the way to the top floor. It was surreal, walking this path again without hiding. "He was a bit startled, really. Looked down at the boy holding onto his hand like he'd never seen a god before. And I swear to you, Haku sounded almost jealous when he asked how he knew you. The Nameless didn't seem all that phased though; just told him that 'The fission of two people's lives wasn't going to start with him.'"
She blinked at that, following Lin wordlessly down the hallway as she awaited her continuance.
"After that he got really interested. They talked for hours, I don't know about what though. I do know Haku was different after that. Started going on missions for Yubaba again; helping out around the bathhouse more for no reason. I think he was trying to just... occupy himself. It seemed like he was really conflicted. Like he was running from something."
She was silent, thinking, until the elevator doors closed and they were once again zooming upwards. "Running from something? Like what?"
"His thoughts maybe. His feelings."
