297:Compliment

Author Notes
So, is there any hope of Aiken really opening up? Does is it at least seem like he’s trying? Rain doesn’t appear to think so. Aunt Fara seems to be trying really, REALLY hard to be optimistic though.

Unrelated note: how does Rain look? I was going for something kinda Christmassy-looking, and I liked the dress when I drew it originally. I dunno, it is cute. But I kinda grew to like it less and less as the chapter progressed. Maybe it’s just me though.
