There's not many places in the front room to hide, so Chise finds Blue easily enough, elbow deep in a cabinet, counting small blue bottles that clink together as she moves them. She's not so occupied, however, that she misses the tinkling of the bells attached to the door, alerting her that someone has entered.
"One moment--" she responds to the bells, extracting her hand and recording some numbers on the notepad in her other hand. That gets set on the shelf to resume later, and she turns to see... A familiar red haired girl. Surprise registers in her expression for a brief moment, before she recovers to a neutral frown.
What is she doing here? Surely as timid as she is, she would have preferred to stay away from this place, away from Blue herself, who had all but demanded she cast a death spell on herself. Adjacent to those thoughts, she notes that Chise is still alive, and a complicated feeling of restrained relief follows in the wake of that.
"Can I help you?" she inquires, hand coming to rest on her hip as she waits for a response.
