[Voice;]

H...How...

[Homura pauses, trying to find her voice. The camera is slightly obscured, but it's obvious she is wearing some form of a lion costume (minus the medal). Yes not even she is safe from the experiment and has been turned into the Lion from Oz. She has been hiding from much of the village since this began, too terrified to even get on the journals until now.

The girl takes a deep breath and asks, in a rather rushed voice-]

How does one learn to brave? I want to be brave like a lot of other people here, but I don't know how. I heard there might be a wizard who can give me bravery, but I don't know where he is. And I'm too frightened to go out to find him alone...

...That was all. Thank you!

[Action;]

[After making that post, Homura decided that she is going to try going out again. Maybe she can meet someone who knows where the Wizard of Oz is! ...Yet when she goes out, she is unable to even go on the main path of the village, too terrified of all the strange people.

So, she'll likely be found hiding. Crouching behind bushes, looking around from behind tree and buildings and all sorts of places. It isn't that she doesn't want to talk -- she's just too damn cowardly.]

I will. Just make sure the food is good, wherever you are leading me to.

I don't know if it's good, but you can eat all you want. [He starts walking, then, continuing on his way toward the plaza. If his brother wasn't terrified of cats, he'd take her to eat there, because he actually cooks pretty well. Alas!]

[She's the least frightening giant cat girl in the world and would probably be more afraid of his brother than the other way around.

She'll follow along, starting some awkward silence as he leads her.]

[Elliot doesn't mind quiet too much—his servant was usually pretty quiet, after all—but keeping his own mouth shut is something he has quite a bit of difficulty doing, so the awkward silence won't last for long.]

You haven't been going around trying to eat people, have you?

You're the first.

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

[...well. It's probably better that way.]

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

As long as you're with me, you'd better not try to eat anyone else!

[chronica.livejournal.com]

O...Okay.

[She sniffs a little. Never did like yelling.]

[He hears that sniffling and looks over his shoulder.]

H-hey, stop that! Lions aren't supposed to cry, they're supposed to be strong!

action.

[chronica.livejournal.com]

A-Ah, right! [She swallows down the choked feeling building up in her throat and nods.] I'm sorry. I'm not a very good lion.

action.

[isntyourfriend.livejournal.com]

It doesn't matter. You can get better if you try.

[Not that he should be encouraging that. But he feels like he should.]
