Blacker than Dark

[ Video / Action ]

[ Anyone with clairvoyant or psychic powers who happens to wander into the area beside building six will notice their skills suddenly melt away. It was like walking into a dead zone where all perceptions were blocked entirely and everyone they met was completely, dark, unreadable. Stepping back out the way they had come, even a

[ What a cute and somewhat familiar cat! But Tyr is staying inside today (in building ten) in case there's more going on than just the sky being dark.

More than that, though, Tyr know why Eagle recognises that place. Of all the places to remember... ]

...It'd probably be better for you to look around after this curse has passed... Looking at the City when it's dark like this isn't the same.

[Surely an adorable dog would remember a beautiful cat like this since he chased her around all day during that curse.
Tyr’s unspoken sympathy would be appreciated. ]

That’s true of course. It would look very different in the dark. [Wistful smile. ]

It is somewhat embarrassing to admit that was why I decided to take a look around now. At least if I didn’t recognize anything I could have blamed it on the darkness.

[And fine again. Just like flipping a switch. ]

I take it you have decided to stay inside today?

[ ...okay yes he totally recognises cat-Rita, but there are probably loads of similar cats out there!

Before his question, Tyr's expression had already slipped further into gloominess. His voice is quiet when he answers. ]

Might as well... The darkness probably means something is wrong.

Have you found any other place you remember?

It probably does. The sun hasn’t been up for two days and it isn’t stormy there must be some other reason for it to be so dark. Maybe magic?

[Hopefully a smile will help to lighten this dark mood of yours? Eagle tries for it anyway. ]

No, besides this place and the apartment. I am afraid every other place is completely new to me.

...why wouldn't you think to take a map?

[eagleofautozam]

A map… [Silly me! ] That would have made sense.

It will be alright though. Most of these places do have signs.

[a_parting_word]

Next time, be more mindful.

Video?

[eagleofautozam]

By next time maybe I won’t need a map, but thank you for the advice any way.

[He will be trying to remember the layout of this City as he goes. ]

You don’t seem worried about the curse today?

[Rita vaguely recognizes the place where he is, and frowns.]

Is that one you recognize?

and whoops video

[But then she sees the second part of that post, and...even if it could have been any old cat, nobody else took a picture of her that day!]

H-hey! I--that cat it not a pet, you know!

[eagleofautozam]

Yes. This is the only place besides my apartment that I truly recognize.

[He isn’t thrilled with that but at least he does remember something. ]

[But, on the more happy topic of the cat~ ]

It isn’t? But, it is so cute and I did look it up. Animals like that really are very common pets here. Maybe that cat already has a home, but one like it might be to Lantis’s liking.

[Rather than answer with the device, Lantis notes where the Eagle is and goes to him. He's curious about the animals.]

I like them both.

[eagleofautozam]

[How cute! Animals are the Lantis signal! ]

I don’t know that we can have one of each, can we? Won’t animals like that would fight each other?

[Walking over to stand with by Lantis as the psychic barrier magic fades away. He doesn’t really want to hide from Lantis after all. ]

They can be raised together and become friends.

[He's done a little research.]

[Oh dear… ]

If they can be trained to get along then it does sound like we will be ending up wit one of each.

[Stepping closer~ ]

Unless you would prefer something like a bird or a fish?

[Filled with a sudden need that he can’t explain…

To just reach out and hold Lantis’s hand. It might not be the worst habit there is, certainly not, but it is one of the sweetest… as long as you don’t mind his not letting go for a while. ]
