So who's this Mr. Bubbles? I was kind of surprised to find a girl named Cindy on her own. I'm taking care of her for now, but whoever this Mister Bubbles is... you had better come pick her up soon. I get the feeling that she really misses you.

In other news, it seems like the Mansion is getting a lot of newcomers. So let's try to help them feel at home, alright? It was really hard for me when I frist arrived, and it probably is for them, too.

How have you been? I haven't heard from you in ages.

I don't want to leave her by herself. She's acting a bit... strange, and besides it's dangerous here. And I don't think she's a normal girl.

I don't, but that's why I'm asking first. And she really does miss the guy.

What makes you say that?

I talked to the one guy. He said she's not normal. She's ... a machine. He said being around her makes him a bad person.

She's too nice. She's trying to get into our heads. To break down our defenses. I'm talking to two other people from her world. Neither of them said anything good about her. The person Cindy calls Mr. Bubbles said she made Cindy the way she is. That she used to be just a little girl.

All the more reason for me to take care of her, I suppose.

Mm... [She thinks about that for a moment.] I'll be wary of her, but I'm not going to ignore her just because being "too nice" is a crime now. Call me naive, but I'm not going to judge her until I know her well. But I will be careful. Thanks.

And my advice is to be careful of that person, Sinclair. The more I hear about him, the less I like.

The guy named Jack told me not to trust anyone from his world. But they can give us information that can help us to be cautious of them.

Sinclair said that Cindy used to be a little girl. That we can shut down the thing in her stomach. If we take it out it will kill her though. He said that Lamb made her what she is. That she's a 'little sister'. I'm trying to get more out of the two of them.

Be careful with her. The way she talks ... I think she's trying to break down our defenses. To manipulate us. Be careful. The closet could give her what she needs to make you into something like Cindy ... or make you what Sinclair called a 'big daddy'.

Jack said that? [She glances back at Cindy.]

Of course, Sinclair is going to give only his side of the story. Just... well, don't go spreading rumours until you're sure. I'll try to find out a bit more too, and tell you about it.

I will. Thanks. And I'll try to keep Cindy away from the lot of them, for now.

Everyone is going to give the side that makes them seem the least at fault. That's what people do. It doesn't make it wrong. I thought something was wrong with her on my own.

That sounds alright. I don't think anyone from her world would help her very much. They all seem to have something of their own they're after. If you can get anything from her ....

But it doesn't make it right either. One small omission can change a whole story... Like I said, I'd rather be sure before I judge.

I think Jack might. He keeps talking about these girls he takes care of back home, and I'm starting to think Cindy might be similar.

I'll let you know. Sure. [She smiles reassuringly.]

Re: [Private to Elaine]

She is. Jack is telling me about it now. We can't make things better though. He said he tried and it didn't work.

[Private to Ritsuka]

[demiurgos-girl.livejournal.com]

I see. But maybe he can help me take care of her. He did say that she was more prone to trusting him and Sinclair than other people, so she might like it if Jack is around. I'll ask him about it.

Re: [Private to Elaine]

I don't understand why everyone is so worried about her just because she's little.

[Private to Ritsuka]

[demiurgos-girl.livejournal.com]

It's not really because she's little. I'm twelve, and Angel's six I think, and we handle well enough on our own. But Cindy is... very trusting. She listened to me immediately when I started taking care of her. She did everything I asked her to.

I just don't want her to be abused. Especially with the Major, and apparently Lamb, in the same building.

Oh ... that makes sense.
