( when eda had first arrived, had first fallen out of the sky like the world's loudest screaming comet, she had been lost. the first days were the most difficult. then suddenly much more difficult once she discovered hunter was here and what he last knew of their time in the demon realm. how their memories hadn't matched. hunter had been lost too, scrambling and scurrying around like an alley-rat.
she still remembers what it had been like to bring him here to the manor for the first time. absolutely nothing like what it was like to bring amity here. and nothing like it had been to bring gus. the first several days are unbearable, but it's easier somewhere safe and with familiar faces.
gus looks worn out, but that's far better than what it could have been.
eda shrugs, flapping a hand dismissively. )
Pssh. You're one of us, kid, I'll always come for you.
( simply. these kids could count on her for that much, she'd come when they needed her. normally eda wouldn't be so forthright about it, but if she's learned anything, it's that sometimes these things needed to be said. )
It takes a while to sink in, but eventually you start getting used to the Wrong Human Realm.
