[font=trebuchet ms]As she approached the docks, Rin could see Mistrim silhouetted by the moon's reflected rays, her tail tucked in.
For a moment, she was reminded of how she had been over a year and a half ago- the way she would sit alone in silence, tugging at her scarf, wandering through the fog of her own mind to find any clue as to who she had once been. They had helped her then, taken her in and given her a home, despite not knowing anything about her. They couldn't have known that it would cost them dearly, but she suspected even if they had, they would have let her in anyway.
Swallowing back the lump in her throat, Rin walked over to the edge of the dock, until she stood a few feet away from Mistrim. She didn't break the silence right away, choosing instead to peer into the depths. Barring the occasional flash of a fish darting by, there was no sign of suspicious movement.
"...Penny for your thoughts?" she said finally, twitching her ears. It was an odd figure of speech, but one she was okay using nonetheless- she didn't have a penny right now, of course, but she could probably find one if Mistrim really wanted one. Turning her head to face Mistrim, she continued, "If you don't want to tell me, that's fine. But depending on what it is, I might be able to help."
Inviting others to pour their strife on her was part of her job as a medic, but even if it wasn't, she didn't mind it. Helping others through their struggles proved a worthwhile distraction from her own, when she had the opportunity.
