[ A girl with a warm, friendly face is poking her head through the door. ] O-oh, I'm sorry! I didn't know Isuzu-san had any other visitors. Um! I can come back later, if you'd like...! [ The girl appears to be flustered. ]

[unaffective]

Ah, my apologies. I only just arrived -

[ wait ]

Who is Isuzu?

[marezydoats]

Um... Shigure-san and some of the others call her "Rin", but I couldn't possibly be that familiar...!

[unaffective]

Ah, I believe that she may have mentioned...

Yes, I suppose that I am here to see her, but I've only just arrived. There's little reason for you to leave.

[marezydoats]

Oh... Okay, then. [ The girl smiles warmly at Elaine. ] I'm so glad Isuzu-san has visitors! I know she hasn't had many, especially with men not being allowed.

[unaffective]

Because of her curse?

It doesn't have any effect on -

[ what is his name? ]

Her boyfriend... does it?

[marezydoats]

Her boyfriend...? [ The girl considers what Elaine says for a moment, puzzled until her face lights up. ] Oh! You mean Hatsuharu-san! She told me they broke up a long time ago... Actually, he's the reason behind the ban. It seems that she got agitated when he tried to visit her. Something about swinging an IV...?!

[unaffective]

But - she still loves him.

[marezydoats]

Mmm. [ The girl sounds sad. ] But he doesn't know that, I don't think. Or at least, she tries not to let him know. That's her wish, though I don't understand the circumstances behind it.

[unaffective]

... I'd hoped that you would have been capable of helping me understand.

[marezydoats]

I could try! I don't know everything, b-but I do know some, um...! Um...!

[marezydoats]

[ The girl's hand flies to her mouth. ] I forgot to ask your name! I'm! I'm so sorry!

[unaffective]

[ ... mimics the gesture, not mocking, just. similarly surprised. ]

- Ah, my apologies. My name is Elaine.

[marezydoats]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Elaine-san. I'm Honda Tohru.

[unaffective]

Yes, thank you... Ms Honda?

[marezydoats]

[ Tohru nods, looking pleased. ] U-um...! But you had questions about Isuzu-san and Hatsuharu-san, isn't that right...?

[unaffective]

Ah, yes. Please tell me whatever you're able.

[marezydoats]

[ The girl sits down next to Elaine, folding her legs carefully underneath her. ] First, has Isuzu-san ever mentioned Akito-san to you?

[unaffective]

... I can't recall. Who is Akito?

[marezydoats]

Akito-san is the head of the Sohma family house. He's also, mmm.... an important part of the curse. He's very important to all of them, their... "God", you could say.

[unaffective]

- Ah, yes. I've heard of him, somewhat...

[marezydoats]

Well, Akito-san, he... He doesn't really like any of the people who are cursed to have relationships without his approval. Especially since he's the head of the household... Hatsuharu-san and Isuzu-san, they were dating in secret, without Akito-san's permission.

[unaffective]

It isn't as if he's their father.

[marezydoats]

It would be easier if he were their father... It's not easy to disobey someone who is "God."

[unaffective]

Ms Honda -

What control does this man possess over them, in more specific terms? Would you know?
