[Ran's not sure she's comfortable with being seen for this one, as it's a subject that's touching a little deeply for her, so for the moment she just sticks to voice.]

[She pulls in a soft breath.]

I . . . need some help.

I know a lot of you have met Conan-kun. He's been here for a while. There's another girl here from my world now too -- Ai-chan. If you haven't met them yet, I hope you get to soon.

What I need help with . . . They're both seven. They're both smart -- really smart -- for their age, but. They're both seven. And not fighters. The train doesn't seem to discriminate about who it takes, and yet the missions that it sends us on are dangerous.

[A pause, wrestling with her words.]

I need them both to be safe. This past time Sera-chan and I were able to be with them. But what happens if we're not able to do that? How does their safety get guaranteed?

I need a better guarantee. Please help me figure out how to keep two kids safe so I can get them back home? I'm teaching both some simpler self-defense, and that will help, but . . . I already know it's not enough.

[Ran sounds reflective.]

I won't really be teaching them fighting as much as self-defense, but trying what they learn off other people could be good. I'm also not on their teams, so I don't really have control over what they do all together, but I could probably mention it to Eva-san. She seems like she might like something like that. I only just met someone in Blue, so I'm not as sure what to do there.

But I'd think even general teamwork exercises would be helpful, just to get them to trust working with others more.

General teamwork exercises might be for the best. [ She didn't really like the idea of little kids fighting either. ] I know there are a good number of people who would be able to help with that, and learning from different people would help even if they end up on a team they're not a part of.

[singlefaith]

Definitely. I'll just have to think about who I know on other teams. I don't think I know much of anyone on Red or Blue.

[goingthroughaphase]

I always forget who's on what team. Even with the roster, it's hard to keep track of everyone. But I know there are plenty of people willing to help out.

And I know a few teamwork exercises too, if you want.
