Week 13.

WEEK 13

The trip to Celestic Town is an unconventional one, though it's infinitely faster than walking and doesn't leave everyone feeling woozy in the same way that teleportation does. The town itself is a small one, though it's scenic, and there's a sort of beauty to it that's very rustic in nature; it's surrounded on both sides by mountainous routes that you're welcome to go on to both the west and the east, though it wouldn't be recommended that you venture too far out, seeing as they can be on the dangerous side for those who are unfamiliar with them.

It seems Cynthia was right about one thing - there was certainly an incident at Lake Verity that went off almost as soon as you left, another of those deep pulses echoing through the surrounding area; it seems that whatever Mesprit did can be felt by the region as a whole, given that Celestic Town and the surrounding areas seem to have been affected as well despite being so far east of the lake.

Cynthia herself can be found throughout the town for the duration, should anyone want to speak to her. Sometimes when left to her own devices, she can be seen in the company of a little girl who looks very similar to herself; sometimes she's with a pair of people much older. Either way, the family resemblance is strong.

Lucas is here as well; he's still willing to speak to anyone that wants to, though he seems a bit subdued.

Either way, it's been a long, harrowing trip so far; hopefully spending some time here will help to rejuvenate you.

CURRENT LOCATION: CELESTIC TOWN

Such as?

[He threads his fingers together, resting his chin on them to watch Sena rather like a cat watching a mouse.

.....he shouldn't be doing this. He wants to, it makes him feel like he's in control for the first time in a few days, but he probably shouldn't.]


I don't think I am either. [Lena is officially out of quiz questions.] I was before though.

Well, um...what we're gonna do now that all the lake deities have been helped, or how this leads to going home, or...um, what happens when we do.

[He scratches at his ear nervously.]

I'm worried about other things and people too, but I guess that's the big thing...?

[That sure is a lot of things to be worried about.]

I...believe I might have as well. It's a little odd...
eudaimonikos: (the methods of ethics)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-01 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Not really specific to here and now. [He tilts his head a little, pushing past his interior conflict for the moment.] So what is it? The cliffs, maybe? Are you nervous about the height?

Yes. Something is different.
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (sorry!)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-01 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Huh...?

[His face blanches. Apparently, the thought hadn't occurred to him until you said something, dude. Thanks.]

N-no, not that...

[Why are you like this.]

Indeed. It's different, but...it feels correct, somehow.
eudaimonikos: (euthyphro)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-01 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
The waterfall, then?

[Because this is fun? Even though it shouldn't be, maybe. It's familiar, then.]

...maybe. [Lena is less sure about these things.]
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (uuuweeehhh)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-01 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
N-No!

[MICHAEL, THIS IS A POOR SUBSTITUTE FOR TORTURING SOULS IN HELL AND YOU KNOW IT.]

Perhaps my opinion is flawed. I've only existed for so long, you know.

[Or well, existed so long as a Shedinja, anyway. Who knows what the hell Shell was before.]
eudaimonikos: ('cause everything else)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-01 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
You're stammering.

[NICOTINE PATCHES ARE A POOR SUBSTITUTE FOR SMOKING BUT PEOPLE SURE USE THOSE]

No. How long?
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by me (sweats)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-01 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
W-well...

[Okay, but when is Sena ever not stammering.]

I first awakened in that human town full of flowers.

[So, when they were in Floaroma Town a few weeks back.]
eudaimonikos: (moral dimensions)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-01 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Michael just smiles expectantly.]

Oh. I remember that. You were asleep?
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (uuuweeehhh)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-01 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Flushing bright red oh my god why.]

I-I'm worried about my friends, okay?

[better. This is better.]

Mn. It's more like I was...born, I suppose. That is the word for it, yes?
eudaimonikos: (out of my body)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-01 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[That...doesn't seem to be the answer he expected.]

How do you mean?

Oh. I guess. [Lena has no clue man]
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by me (sweats)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-01 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
[Of course it wasn't.]

Er, well, of course I'm worried about my friends back home, but, uh...that's not the here and now you were talking about, aha...

[Hmm.]

It's just that...

I don't remember anything before then, so that must be it.
eudaimonikos: (an essay concerning human understanding)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-01 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Just that what?

[Say something relevant, Sena, geeeeeeeeeez]

I remember hatching from my egg. We were in a cave. It was way before the flower place.
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (uuuweeehhh)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-02 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Uhm, well...I'm worried for my friends here, too...Camilla and Rin and Zelda and Kiryu and Jake and everyone...and um...you, too.

[Aww. Look at him, he's embarrassed.]

I do not recall hatching from an egg at any point...but regardless, you must be older than myself regardless, yes?
eudaimonikos: (I got dreams of my own)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-03 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
...are we friends?

[He doesn't ask it like he thinks they're not. Just, are they?]

Oh. Yes. [Lena considers this for a moment.] Why do you act so old, then?
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (what. what is it)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-03 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah?

[Sena blinks owlishly, like such a thing should be obvious.]

You think we're not...?

[Meanwhile, Shell hesitates.]

Do I act old? It's simply how I feel. [That they're older than they should be. Like they were here before they were here.]
eudaimonikos: (the birth of the prison)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-03 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I don't know. You act like you're afraid of me most of the time.

[Which he hasn't done much to discourage, admittedly.]

I think you do? I guess I don't really know, though, I haven't talked to that many people.
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (that's...um...)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-03 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, er-sorry! [Oh look, there it is. The Scared Face(tm).]

It's just that, uh, you sometimes remind me of another friend who's kinda like that, and, um...

[He mumbles, not quite meeting Michael's eyes.]

Andifiwasreallyscarediprobablywouldhavejustranawayhonestlysoumsorry.

[ahahaha.]

Hm. That is something for me to keep in mind, I suppose.
eudaimonikos: (please come through)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-03 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Michael peers silently at Sena for a few seconds, becuase he's honestly not...completely sure what to make of that.]

You know I'm not actually going to do anything to you...?
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (sorry!)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-04 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
Um...

[Sheepish expression.]

Yes?

[Why does that sound like a question, Sena.]
eudaimonikos: (the republic)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-04 02:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[(x) doubt]

Because I'm not.
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (uuuweeehhh)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-04 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhm!

[Hasty nodding.]

Y...yes, I figured...
eudaimonikos: (please come through)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-04 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[..........]

Because we're...friends?
swiftasacoursingkawa: icon by <user name=kufufutofu =livejournal.com> (sorry!)

[personal profile] swiftasacoursingkawa 2018-09-04 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, that, and um. The guy you remind me of, he's a scary person...but he's a good guy. Even if he, um. Blackmails people. And stuff.

[And stuff.]
eudaimonikos: (out of my body)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2018-09-04 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I've never blackmailed anyone.

[wow, there it is, you found the one crime he did not do]
