[The device clicks on to show Yin's apartment, and a baby grand piano. She's seated in front of it, device set up to record, moonlight the only lighting, streaming in from the window, highlighting silver in Yin's pale hair and the ebony shine of the piano.]

[She only gets past the first few notes when a furry black blur bursts from inside the piano and takes off.]

[Yin is wide-eyed for a second or two. Then, as silently as she started the broadcast, Yin gets up to shut off the device.]

Action:

[She approaches cautiously and kneels down.] Mao?

Are you afraid here? [It had to be asked, seeing as that's the implication without him.]

[She's still smiling, but it becomes the tiniest bit more subdued:] ... only shometimes.

Pinoko's never been apart from Dr. Black Jack for sho long before. She doesn't really know anybody elshe as well. It's confusing.

Pinoko wantsh to make hershelf usheful too, but she doesn't know how to do that here. [And it makes her feel unnecessary, here.] If there was a clinic or hosphital or shomething like that here where Pinoko could work, that'd make it easier.

[She's scared.... Yin can't offer protection, though. Not much.] You know me. [As well as anyone that's not Mao or Hei can, at least.] Have you not met other people?

There is a hospital. Have you spoken to anyone about it? They might be able to find you a position.

[She meant knowing them well, prior to coming here, but she smiles at that anyway:] Yeah, Pinoko's getting to know Yin-shan.

[Now, that suggestion makes Pinoko happy!] For real?! Yay! Pinoko will go ashk around, for sure! Thanksh sho much!

If you were right in front of Pinoko, she'd have hugged you! [She'll settle for hugging the cell phone while dancing around her room. Silly thing.]

[Video]

[moonlitrequiem]

[Well, to Yin, this is likely the best anyone can know her.]

[There is a slight widening of her eyes at Pinoko's mention of hugging, though. More people probably should hug her.] You didn't know? I need to see what the guides cover. Perhaps they are not informative enough.

...did you even get a guide upon arriving?

[Video]

[pinokosthewife]

[Awww, Yin, they need to meet up in person and she'll give her aaaaall the hugs.

She pulls the cellphone away from her now, ending her little hugging-dance.] Nope!

[Video]

[moonlitrequiem]

[That is easy enough to arrange.]

Would you still like one?

[Video]

[pinokosthewife]

It's gotta be usheful, sho shure!

There are others, but this is one of the more concise ones.
