Man.

[A pause.]

Has anyone ever gotten that sudden rush, where you remember a whole lot of something all at once? Or you think you remember all of it, but then there's pieces missing...

Hahaha wow I'm dizzy. Okay, sitting down.

Um- well all right, I won't beat around the bush. Nami, Zack? Buffy? Draco? Meryl? What about anybody from home? Luke, Asch?

I don't need help, I'm all right to get to the village myself, but a friendly voice would be nice to listen to for the walk in. Maybe some conversation while I catch my breath. Ah, how about- hm. Your first day here in Luceti; how was it for you?

Oh wow. That's got to be a little awkward.

Only a little. But he's nineteen back home. [A short pause.] I'm still his older brother, though.

[STUBBORN AS HELL.]

Well, I don't know if we have to go that far back, but- you know. It's nice to be remembered, I guess.

I'm okay, really! I didn't hit any stairs or anything. [He holds out an arm, as if to say "See? I'm fine." and show no scrapes or bruises.

But once that's finished, he's back up and moving again. It's a lot more stairs than back at the house, that's for sure.]

Any kind of shoes you want? Do you need a shirt, too?

Haha! No no, I agree. It's not a matter of age, it's a matter of principle.

Sorry. If it makes you feel better, this is really confusing me too.

So I was here a little while ago, and I didn't remember anything from before?

Any shoes are fine; and you can bring a shirt if you'd like. It's pretty warm so it's not necessary, but maybe for decency's sake.

[Shouldn't go swaggering around half naked if he can help it, after all, even if it's kind of the norm for a New Feather cycle.]

Basically, yeah. Not gonna lie, it was pretty depressing! You weren't that different, though, as far as I could tell. Maybe a little more serious, I guess?

Someone who gets it! Thank you. He actually tried to compromise so he'd be the older brother for a few days, and then I would be. It's ridiculous.

[Oh wait. He was asking for Nami earlier.] About Nami, though. You... probably won't hear from her soon. She's asleep. And hasn't woken up for a few days. Oh, and thorns are growing around her house. [Just another day in Luceti.]

More serious, huh? [Guy can think of a few reasons why he'd be more serious.]

Yeah, I don't remember any of that. But I remember everything from before.

It's good to hear from you again as well. [Oh Guy, if she were aware that they had spent all that time waiting for Luke together she would have been that much more happier to see him. But that didn't stop her from believing anyway.]

If Luke is already on his way there, could you tell me what you remember meanwhile? [She still wants to talk to him face-to-face, especially when he had said Asch's name so casually.]

[Shared custody of the title, huh? Not cool.]

Thorns? Jeez. Is she all right? [Aside from. Y'know. The coma and all.]

[...hello there fellow trolling blond.]

Not sure if I should say welcome back, or run while you can.

Hm, well- a lot, actually. I remember you were here before- do you remember that? You got here just a little while before I was sent back, I think.

[A few months or something, it's hard to recall.]

Sorry, everything's a bit fuzzy.

[AH, DRACO.]

Is it weird that I'm really happy to be here? [And happy to see Draco still around to remember him, by the sound of his voice.]

A bit of disbelief comes in handy, though, at least. By the time you realize you might actually be sticking around, you'll have seen enough out-of-the-ordinary to know it's gonna be the new ordinary.

Well yes, but I've always thought you were a bit touched in the head. [It's okay, Guy. Secretly Draco feels the same way.] How far outside of the village are you?

Yes, I arrived shortly before you left... [The first time. Was it all right to say that out loud just yet?]

Take as long as you need to, I'll wait however long is necessary. [But preferably before Luke finds you, please?]

Also true. It becomes routine to see the unexpected around every corner; once the culture shock wears off, it's actually kind of nice. Personally I like having so much variety around, though I dunno if it's the same for you.

[How sweet.]

Damned if I know. Judging by how thick the brush is, I'm pretty far off the beaten path; at least an hour's walk?

Um, geez. Wow. I remember, uh- well, I remember all the drafts, and the tunnel cave-in. I remember- that tree in the plaza. Another one of the holidays that always gets celebrated around here- Valentine's Day? Yeah, that. I think that's the last really weird thing that happened before I left.

Is any of this helping at all?

Can't say I envy you. No wonder you're desperate for company. [A beat, and then--] You're still the same, aren't you? No new memories on top of the ones of this place?

Yes, it is. [And it is helping to confirm her suspicions regarding why he had seemed so casual at this time, compared to when he had last been here.]

You don't recall if Natalia was here when you were? [If he answered yes, then he would eventually remember what had happened when he returned months back. If yes... then he never would remember what he did.]

[Right? Gosh, that title is far too important to share.] Yeah, she's fine! It's just really hard, trying to get to the house with those thorns.

[That's a weird question.]

A few new memories from home, but I still feel about the same. Why do you ask?
