week 3, tuesday, a bit after motive
[With her job done to make sure Minato isn't going to die (probably) and no one else attempting to murder the Conductor, Ris is free to continue on with the one thread she'd had to let drop earlier.
She makes her way to the apartment car, to Mithos' door, and raises her hand to rap her knuckles against it.
There's a part of her that's worried she'll be turned away, but even so, she has to try. If she's learned anything about Mithos over the course of these few weeks, it's that he has an unfortunate tendency to recede into himself when he actually needs to reach out.
Well, it's fine. She can take some initiative, at least. Mithos is not the first person she's known with poor self-care tactics, after all, and she's far happier to go out of her way for Mithos than she ever was for that man.
Having knocked, she just waits for any response. She's not going to just burst in.]

us. we did.
We can. Just as soon as we make it out of here. [She'll even drop the "if" of the whole situation. In the name of hope.] Until then, until you can see her again, we'll just have to celebrate her life as best as we can. Try our best to make the world what she always wanted it to be for her return.
[And as for that last bit, her gaze softens.]
Of course you will. I told you, didn't I? You won't ever be rid of me. I don't break my promises.
crying......
That's right. The moment we make it out of here we'll begin. I'm sure there are things we can do to make it happen. So when she does come back it's to her liking.
[ And his nods, his own gaze softening ]
Good. I don't plan on breaking my promise to you, either. Whatever we do, Ris, we'll do it together.
[cat drowning in tears emote]
[And to that last part... well, way to get her cheeks flushing a little, Mithos.
With how pale she is, this really just serves to make her look a little more alive, but it's definitely noticeable.]
"Whatever we do, we'll do it together," huh? Ehe... I like the sound of that.
