[

shrugs, eloquently ]

[evocationary]

[ ... ]

What's up with you? Everything good?

[retellers]

Yeah. [ it's rude that a mask makes it harder to tell the expression on that? the tone is the same as usual though ] As good as everything usually is.

[evocationary]

[ she didn't realize how much she relied on his face to figure things out god ]

... Oookay. [ she's not sure she believes that, maybe, but. ] Did you remember anything today?

[retellers]

Yeah. [ he tilts his head in her direction ] You guys did too, right?

[evocationary]

Yeah. I remembered one person. [ a sigh. ] My doll, actually.

What did you remember?

[retellers]

[ ... there's a clear hesitance then before he sighs and looks away ]

Why I quit SOLDIER.

[evocationary]

[ ahhhh... ]

Doooo... you want to talk about it?

[retellers]

[ ... he shrugs ]

Not out in public.

[ he's the one who told her to come here?? ]

[evocationary]

You - told me to come out here, you dunce.

Can we go back to your place, then? It's weird not seeing your face.

[retellers]

I wasn't planning on talking about it.

[ :/ but he sighs and leads her to the castle once more. the church!! looks the same as always!!!! he doesn't take off his hood right away ]

You see me with the mask on all the time during the week.

[evocationary]

[ zia like god dammit don't make me use embedded icons ]

Yeah, but this is me time now. No masks during me time. [ she follows him to the church and immediately goes to sprawl down by the flowers. also, she winces terribly when she does so. it is less of a sprawl than just like, her slowly sinking down, hand on her chest. ]

Okay, ow, out with it.

[retellers]

[ honestly. yes. wolf huffs and takes off his hood, but. hrm. distracted immediately. ] What did you do?

[evocationary]

Well, a dinosaur knocked me out, and then a leopard tried to vore me! So there's that.

[ just tag me with your cloud account who cares ] I have like four HP left it's fine.

[retellers]

[ no i can't add it to the access list on the account you're all monsters ] Don't you guys have healing items?

[evocationary]

[ HFFFT ]

We have one left, but good luck getting anybody to use it. I was about to knock Xie Lian out in order to get Taako to not bleed to death in my arms.

[retellers]

What's the point of hoarding them? [ says cloud, from the remake version where square enix holds a gun to your head if you don't use your items ]

[evocationary]

That's what I said! But I don't have control over the healing glock that we're saving for an emergency. I'm an emergency. I can't sit down without pain.


[ grumble. ]

[retellers]

Need me to carry you back later? [ ... really can't tell if he's joking there. ]

[evocationary]

... Do not offer me that if you don't mean it. [ she squints up at him ] Because yes. Absolutely.

[retellers]

I'm not joking. It'd be embarrassing if you reopened your wounds and you bled to death on the way back from the castle. [ okay, so the last part is joking which he shows by nudging her lightly when he sits down next to her flopped form. progress. ]

[evocationary]

[ she laughs. ]

Aw, jeeze, you're right. I've already embarrassed myself enough today by being emotional in public, I'd rather not die on top of that. [ she allows the nudge, grinning. ] Hey, um. I wanted to say sorry, actually.

[retellers]

Yeah. That was embarrassing. [ especially since emet didn't even die? but there's a pause before he looks down at her ] Yeah?

[evocationary]

[ NO DON'T AGREE WITH HER her insecurities!!!

she scrunches up just a little. ] Uh, yeah. You told me not to tell anybody about the nova thing and then I just, uh, immediately let it slip.

I didn't actually mean to, with Soo-Won.

[retellers]

Hm. [ it's a very non-committal noise. ] Yeah. I heard. [ ... he gonna, uh. say anything else. ...nope! ]
