"Akane..." Hamuko called, walking right behind her and to the door, though she didn't block.

"Akane, wait, just..."

Her voice was still a little wavering, a bit tearful, but she smiled. Smiled easily, like she always did. And she didn't crowd the door, or block it, or grab for Akane whatsoever. Instead she just... lowered her voice to a gentle near-whisper.

"...If you ever need somewhere to be, Akane... you can come to the Iwatodai Dorms. I'll be there in a little while, so - whenever you need, okay?"
