[The voice of Molly Anderson once again greets the network, .]

Ah...! Hello again, everyone! I know it's been a while since I last made a post on the Network, and I realize a lot has probably gone on. I'm sorry for everything I missed, and if there's any way I can help with any of the trouble people have been having, I want to do so!

[Molly laughs, sounding more than a bit nervous.]

I didn't really say anything about this to everyone before, just a couple people, but... I've been talking with my aunt a lot. About being a Numbered, I mean. She's still nervous about a lot that has to do with it, and... W-well, I'm still not sure how she feels about everything, but she knows I'm a Numbered now, and that's good! She's okay with me doing the superhero thing, too, for a while.

... I guess now I've said that, I should introduce myself by my other name! I'm also Cure Heart, a magical girl, and I want to fight to protect everybody! And I guess that means leaving Locke sometimes! I'm ready to do that now!

...

[Her voice grows quieter for the moment.]

I've moved around a lot, but I've never done it on my own. And honestly it's pretty scary. A lot of you have moved all over the world, right? I was wondering if anyone had any advice...

Of course! I mean, you've all inspired me from the start, so...

... A-ah, can I count you as one of those people I can call on?

[Molly doesn't really feel lucky, but she doesn't know if it's right to say so in this case.]

Uhm... thank you? I suppose...

Like I keep saying, I'm going to keep doing my best. I'm sure if I put my heart into it, I'll succeed!

Good luck, then! I believe it'll all work out...!

[... Wait, what? Winter? Why does she sound so harsh? She frowns...]

W-Winter? Y-yeah, I know that. I don't... want to be a burden to you or Lily...

[Micah laughs quietly.]

That should help, too. Take care of yourself, all right?

[ What Umi wouldn't give to have been a 'normal' girl who just has magical powers. ]

I normally do not ramble nearly this much. ...you're a kind girl, as well.

I will! You do so as well, Mister!

... Thank you. I just... I want to be as good as I can. To everybody...

It's hard though. So many people have different viewpoints...

I fear that that will be making my life more difficult in the future. Hopefully... it doesn't go too poorly.

[Rolling his eyes:]

Name's Micah. Don't make me feel any older than I am, kid.

[That might get the faintest trace of a smile on her lips.]

It's a step in a direction, alright.

Jus don't let it go to your head.

... If we all try to understand each other, it'll go easier. I know most people would consider that naive, but...

Heh, okay! I'm mostly trying to be polite, but I understand.

I won't! But I'm gonna consider it better than where we were before! And that's as much because of you as it is me!

It's all right, you can call me Micah.

That best go both ways, of course, because people will be making assumptions about me.

A burden... well, it wouldn't be the first time. Although-

[Summer knows who this is. Molly doesn't know Summer, but Summer is very much aware of who this is and what she represents. Even without having been through the same lines of thought, she understands that Winter has made it through a very important trial by acknowledging this girl. And knowing Winter...]

-I doubt you could be a burden to us. Any of us, so long as you can keep yourself under control, and not try to become your past self in a day. [They'd dealt with that, too.] You are not Cure Heart. Don't try to become her. That's a warning and a sincere wish.

Okay, Micah! I'll be sure to remember that!

I can promise that I'll do my best, at least.

[By the time Summer is done talking, Molly is extremely confused. The way Summer is talking to her, the things she's saying... they're familiar, but this is a bit colder and harsher than Molly knows from the woman.]

I-I promise...! I mean, I want to get myself under control, I... I mean, you can count on me! I won't disappoint you!

[The confusion is thick enough that, between the girl's sudden uncertainty and Summer's own realization, something important becomes clear.]

She didn't tell you, did she. [A brief, at most vaguely humored chuckle.] She never did like to admit I exist... well. That's not really unexpected.

I should probably introduce myself. My name is Summer. Summer Adamas, doppelganger of Winter. In a manner of speaking, I'm your teammate, too; I can become a Precure just like her, except I become the shadow of malice, Dark Diamond.

[Her smirk is audible as she continues.] Pleased to meet you properly, Molly. I hope we can get along.

...I'm not going to accept any credit in this endeavor.

...

[Well, Molly certainly feels extremely stupid now.]

She did tell me about you, actually. I didn't... I didn't realize that's who you were...

... a-ah, well. I suppose I'll take what I can get, then...
