34 [voice/action] forward-dated to tomorrow morning

Nov 10, 2011 17:57

[Good morning, Luceti. A nice day isn't it? A bit nippy, though. It's a good day to go picking up some clothing more suitable for the cooling weather. Though those who go into the clothing store this morning for just that purpose might get a rather awkward surprise if they choose to rummage through that pile of very nice winter jackets.

Namely, a ( Read more... )

[Guess who has been listening in on all of the conversations you've been having since you asked that question? Honestly, there's a part of her that half-expected this to be one of those sick dreams she had so often, and even though she had hoped just a little that maybe she would get to meet him again. Except that wasn't what usually happened, those who left her rarely, if ever, came back to her.

It's when his voice doesn't come up again that she considers speaking, to wake herself up from this cruel dream. It had gone on long enough.] E'thaji...

[He knows that voice.... and to hear her call him 'brother' again, even after he let her down.... it was a welcome thing.] Kaori? Where are you?

Sleeping. [That made the most sense anyway, right? And even if she did stop deluding herself that she was dreaming, she had resumed wandering about the outskirts of the village alone since he had left.

After a moment she shrugs, her voice rather monotone and devoid of emotion. That alone is unusual enough from her.] Alone, what else?

[Sleeping? She was sleep talking....? No... She was speaking so...

His tone when he responds is confused, yet worried.] Kaori?

Can I come see you?

Well, you can. [That was almost sarcasm. Almost. It was more along the lines of cynicism, but why was she being so cruel to him even if it was a dream?]

I'm sorry...

....Are you angry with me?

If you don't want to see me, I understand.... [He broke his promise, didn't he? By leaving.]

No! [Of all the emotions she's experienced the last few days, anger toward Frey had never been one of them, nor had it ever crossed her mind. Maybe it would have been easier if she had been, though, because then she could have developed a small sense of closure. Maybe.]

I want to see you, please...! [Can't she be granted that in this dream, at least? Even if it's just a poor imitation of the Frey she remembers from her childhood.]

Of course. Where are you? I'll meet up with you at once. [.... She really had been badly shaken up, hadn't she? He pushes away the guilt and pangs of longing for home to deal with later- right now Kaori needed him.]

... I-I don't know. [It was the honest truth, she didn't know how far she had wandered from the village this time. At the very least it was a significant distance past the treeline, if the image in her journal's camera is of any indication.]

You don't know? Can you try to get a good image of the area surrounding you with your journal? [Forget heading back to the house, he's heading back into the forest. He'll go back once he has Kaori.]

[That would be a good idea, except she's kind of lying down in the grass, so when she point it out in front of her it faces the sky and some treetops.]

Ah..... can you hear anything in particular? [Kaori what.]/

... Birds. [She's still as blunt as she's always been, even as an emotional wreck.]

I'll..... just head into the forest, then. [Sob. Kaori why so difficult.]

... Please hurry. [Hey big bro, you're lucky she's this functional right now. As it is, she set the journal down to the side and begins to hum something that may be vaguely familiar to Frey. He had sung it to her when she was small, after all, and it happened to be something she had been humming to herself whenever the grief would become too much over the last few days.

She doesn't want to wake up any time soon.]

[He recognized the tune indeed - Something Rania had played once, back home, during that last night in Ceras Lake. The night before he had woken in Luceti the first time.

It was strangely comforting now, to hear it upon returning here. And when he hears the humming not only over the journals but nearby, he follows the sound to her.] ....Kaori?
