2girls, my_melody, yumeno_uta, crying, tears, streaming tears, shaking shoulders, my_melody comforting her, hand on another's head, headpat, leaning closer, from above, close-up, dutch angle, indoor, television screen glow, blunt bangs, drill hair, twintails, brown hair, orange hair, long hair, brown eyes, pink hood, pink hair, long hair, hair bow, blue bow, animal ears, blue eyes, pink eyes, frills, ribbon, long sleeves, sweet lolita, skirt, open mouth, closed eyes, furrowed brow, trembling lip, blush, sad, tender, soft lighting
Seen from above and slightly tilted, the camera looks down at the two of them huddled close on the floor of a small dim room: Uta Yumeno sits with her knees drawn up and her back against the low sofa base, head tipped forward so her blunt bangs fall across her brow, both drill-shaped twintails swinging down past her shoulders toward the carpet — one tail brushing her elbow, the other pressed flat where she leans back. Her brown eyes are squeezed shut, lashes clumped wet, and two clean tear tracks run down each cheek, one drop hanging from her jaw and another soaked dark into the collar of her top; her mouth is pulled open in a raw sob, chin trembling, shoulders hunched high and shaking, both hands balled into fists against her chest, knuckles white.
Beside her, My Melody kneels on the carpet with her weight settled onto one knee, leaning in so her pink-hooded head tips over Uta's crown at an angle; her long pink hair spills forward over her own shoulder and one blue bow at her ear catches the light while the other hangs behind. One soft paw rests on the top of Uta's head, fingers barely dimpling the hair between the bangs, her other paw hovering just above Uta's clenched hands as if waiting to be taken — not touching yet. My Melody's blue eyes are open and lowered onto Uta's face, her small mouth a gentle closed line, ears drooping slightly forward in concern. Her frilled long-sleeved dress and ribbon are bunched where she kneels, a fold of the skirt trapped under her shin.
In the background a television screen sits just inside frame at the upper left, throwing pale blue-white light across the carpet and up the side of My Melody's hood and Uta's tear-wet cheek; the screen shows only a blurred bright block of a results board, all lettering illegible, and it is the dominant light source, with the room's far corners falling into soft darkness and a thin edge-light along the sofa. Deep shadows pool under their bodies, and the tear on Uta's jaw throws a tiny glint back at the screen. Palette limits itself to cool blue-white from the screen, warm brown-to-orange of Uta's hair, and My Melody's pink and white, nothing else admitted. Tender, quietly heartbroken.
