Starr listened patiently and nodded.  Kiki seemed to be relaxing, now that she realized Starr wasn't going to freak out and such.  It must be comforting, knowing that you've got someone on your side in this world.  Starr knew what it was like to be alone.  It sucked.<br/><br/>"Do you... have a place to stay?" she said.  Starr normally did not offer houseroom to people she'd just met, but this girl didn't seem like she was going to cause trouble, and considering she didn't know where she came from or anything, she probably needed somewhere to go that she didn't have to hide under cloaks.<br/><br/>Of course, Starr's apartment was small, with only one bedroom, but they'd manage.<br/><br/>"I mean... I only have one bed.  I hope you don't mind sharing... but if you do, that's fine.  I can take the couch."  She smiled at Kiki, feeling an unfamiliar knot in her stomach.  It'd been so long since Starr had properly communicated with anyone, she'd nearly forgotten what it was like to actually<em>like</em>someone.
