[ She's just in a black and white striped crop top with a high waisted pants, and booties. There's a coat hanging behind her on her chair. ]

I don't. I don't think so.

How have you been holding up?

[shikisha]

[ Nonon just sighs. ]

Fine. Magical Mom kept me from going to the police station and just blowing the place apart, but I still feel like doing it anyways.

What about you?

action;

[psycholawgy]

[ A cock of her head as she asks- ] Magical Mom?

As for myself? I've been with Simon. Nothing exciting, really...

[shikisha]

Nanoha Takamachi.

[ Somehow she expected Athena to know who that was?? ]

They still won't let me see her, no matter how much I yell at them.

action;

[psycholawgy]

I didn't know that's what you called her. I call her Miss Nanoha.

[ A beat. ]

I guess the detention center doesn't-- have rules similar to ours. I'm sorry, Nonon.

action;

[shikisha]

She's a Mom who's always talking about her magic, it just fit.

[ Nonon just shrugs. She's not upset with Athena, or short with her, though she realizes she might seem it. ]

Well, I'm sure you want to see her too, right? ...She's such an idiot.

[psycholawgy]

Do you want to get some breakfast first before we continue?

There's... something I want to tell you. I suppose it answers your question.

action;

[shikisha]

...I could eat.

[ She can always eat. For a tiny girl she loves to eat. ]

If you have something important to say then you should just say it. There's no point in putting it off.

[psycholawgy]

W- Well, the buffet is only open 'til 9am, so we gotta hurry if we want to grab a lot of food.

action;

[shikisha]

[ So putting it off then. Right. Nonon just looks suspiciously at Athena, wondering just what she has to tell her. But the smell of syrup is too strong... ]

Fine. But one trip to the buffet then you're telling me whatever it is you've got to tell me.

action;

[psycholawgy]

I will.

[ She gets up from her seat, too. ]

But don't get your hopes up. It's not an exciting story.

action;

[shikisha]

I'll still hear it either way.

[ But that does hamper her spirits just a little. Or at least puts her in a little less agitated state. And so she's going to lead the charge, as a conductor should, stepping to the front of the line for the waffle iron, taking one for herself ignoring the complaints of someone else. She's really the worst.

But it's being topped with a giant mountain of whipped cream, cherries, strawberries, syrup and chocolate sauce. Just the sort of thing that can't even be a little healthy. ]

action;

[psycholawgy]

[ Athena has no problem with what Nonon gets. It's why she invited her to this place, after all. Breakfast sweets!

Meanwhile, Athena's plate has a couple of croissants, crepe, and a ton of fruits. A ton of fruits. Oranges, strawberries, bananas, mangoes, avocados, kiwi... she likes fruits a lot. ]

So, anyway... I told you why I became a lawyer, right? How much did I tell you, again?

action;

[shikisha]

[ Nonon eyes some of the fruits she missed, but generally looks pretty satisfied with Athena's choices. ...As if anyone asked Nonon how she felt about someone else's food?? ]

Your mother was murdered. You helped that guy get free who was accused of killing her, but he didn't do it. Blackgill, or something.

[ She remembers most of it. ]

[psycholawgy]

[ she nods, acknowledging that nonon's recalling is mostly correct. ]

Blackquill.

And he was my best friend then, you know? So.... So this happening now, it's kind of like a repeat of the past. [ she angrily shoves a strawberry in her mouth. ] it's so painful.

It must be even more so for you...

[shikisha]

[ She's seen Blackquill before, but never actually spoken to him. But she understands where Athena is coming from, surprisingly. ]

She's the strongest person I've ever met. She can level this whole colony if she wanted to. Nothing is going to happen to her. [ Nonon just sighs, looking sadly at her amazing looking breakfast. ] But she's also an idiot who thinks she has to do the right thing even when it hurts herself.

[psycholawgy]

... she didn't really kill somebody, did she?

[ This is the worst possible thing to talk about over delicious breakfast. ]

[shikisha]

Did she ever tell you who Nui Harime is?

[ She doesn't answer the question, instead asking her own, while digging into her waffle before she loses her own appetite. ]

[psycholawgy]

She did tell me.

... so.

[ Is that it? ]

[shikisha]

Then you know that she killed Ryuko's father. ...and Satsuki-sama's too.

[ Which means that no matter what, Nonon is on Ryuko's side here. ]

[psycholawgy]

Then Ryuko's not safe. You're not safe.

... If Nui did die, then she'll just be recoded.

[shikisha]

Ryuko is fine, she has her kamui and her scissor blade.

[ Nonon just motions at her own uniform. ]

I have my goku uniform too. I can take her if I need to. But I haven't seen her at all since the waterpark. Which makes me wonder if Ryuko killed anyone at all, or if it's all a lie from CERES..

[psycholawgy]

...

[ The only response Athena gives isn't verbal. Her eyes widen at the possibility of it being a lie. And she wants to find out. ]

[shikisha]

I don't trust them. Not with everything I've heard what went down on that little tour.

[ She's been keeping abreast of it, despite not seeming like it. She has her friends to keep her informed. ]

[psycholawgy]

I used to trust them... But now, I'll just believe in my friends.

I suppose I should apologise for even doubting you and Ryuko regarding Mosley and Ms. Recreare's motives.
