H-Hello, everyone.

[A young lady with white horns poking through her bright pink hair appears to be sitting in her Level 2 apartment, with a galaxy backdrop. She fidgets in her seat.]

My name is Nyuu, but some of you may know me as Lucy. If I'm acting different, I can explain, um... [She wrings her hands around in her lap.] There's really no other way for me to say this without making it more confusing, but I have a split personality. The one called Lucy is asleep right now.

[As her eyes become downcast, she takes a deep breath.]

This is something I only learned about a year ago, and I'm still trying to figure things out, but I wanted to warn everyone about Lucy. I've heard in the past that she's... [the lump in her throat goes down] She's killed people before.

[A sad sigh as she sags in her seat.]

I swear I have no control over it, but I'll understand if any of you see me as a dangerous liability after this. That's all I had to say.

[Oh boy. This may be beyond her ability to deal with. The closest thing she can come to, namely Riku as possessed by the False Ansem, isn't really the same thing. After all, Ansem was an interloper. He possessed Riku.

She still thinks it would do Nyuu some good to talk to him, but she knows it's not the same thing as a split personality.]

I can't say how anyone else would react. Maybe they'd be afraid. Maybe they'd run. But I don't believe that. They're your friends, aren't they? Then... I think they'd try to help you, as best they can.

... That's part of why I've been talking to Lucy when I get the chance, after all.

[Nyuu wipes her eyes with the back of her sleeve, sniffling again and nodding.]

I... I believe they would, too. They didn't have to take me in when they found me, but they did, and it's not like they constantly remind me of all the things they've done in hopes of me returning all their favors. All they ask of everyone in that house is to do their assigned chores for the day.

[Her eyes are slightly red from holding back tears when she looks straight into the camera at Kairi.]

Do you think Lucy will improve once she makes some friends here? I've been hoping for that, too, since I don't seem to be making as much progress with her on my own. But I'm also afraid she might lash out suddenly, that's why I warned everyone. We share this body yet I know so little about her.

[And that scares Nyuu. So far, Lucy's been well-behaved, but she knew from experience that could change, particularly in times of danger.]

[princessascended]

Well, chores are pretty important.

[She's trying to lighten things up at least a little bit. This situation seems like it could desperately use a bit of that.]

I don't know. I've only talked to her a little. She didn't seem threatening or like she wanted to hurt anyone to me, but... I don't know how you really tell that. From what you're telling me, she doesn't sound like the type to hide her feelings, is that right?

[Maybe more the type to go along with them too much, if anything.]
