Yelling, screaming, crying. Those being the noises coming from our phone. I was researching a new alters source. As if in the moment, I remember everything in perfect detail, even our outfit, from the top of my head to the tips of my toes. I heard a knock coming from my house's door, I sighed angrily and paused the videos, coming out of my burrito blanket I had unknowingly rolled myself into. I stood and unlocked the door, a face that was unfamiliar stared at me. "Hey there, Emery." Esther said with her freakish grin on her face. I stood there for a second before grabbing her arm and dragging her over to the other side of our "city" and right onto the porch of Kuroo's mini apartment. How do these gatekeepers do it? Containing a child and STILL being able to function? I banged on his apartment door with a calm expression, trying hard to not give Esther the satisfaction of knowing she interrupted my research and had gotten on my nerves once more.

<<Kuroo's POV>>
I woke up to a pounding on my door, I sat up and rubbed the tiredness from my eyes, I stared at the window to see Emery standing outside taking ahold of Esther's wrist with a tight grasp. "SHIT," I blurted out, slightly panicking. I raced upwards and unlocked the door to the apartment, immediately grabbing Esther's wrist. "You're hurting me!" She whined, we both knew better than to trust that. This kid is a persecutor for fucks sake, she has all kinds of tricks up her sleeve.

Context and Notices
*To any systems or anyone in general who strongly believes alters shouldn't be judged simply by their role (Saying persecutors need to be watched because they're evil, that kind of thing), Esther comes from a source when she can quite literally hurt someone if she is not only in front, but in general let out of sight of a gatekeeper or protector

Now context:
Taking the information stated in the notice above, Esther was paired with me when she formed, meaning it was my job to watch her from then on. Unfortunately I fell asleep in the inner world which allowed Esther to get out of my supervision. -Kuroo

I was fronting one night researching Harlows source when I felt a weird presence, i thought nothing of it since I was literally watching horror TikToks as my research when I felt another chill and a random grin forming on the body's face, this only happens when Esther specifically is in front, I glanced around the fronting room and surely, she was in front with me, explaining this part of the story! -Emery
