Luke, Natalia-- Look what was here this morning.

[he holds up the snowglobe -- carefully; his hands aren't the steadiest and he'd hate to risk breaking it.]

It's Auldrant, isn't it?

I wonder if this is the world without the Score.

[he looks at it with quiet affection in his eyes, seeming to get lost in it-- and then he lets out a soft laugh.]I'

Oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh ~ ?

[sparkling_by]

My, my. What a kind heart you have.

Careful not to ever have it shaken, will you?

[harmoniae]

Ah, I'm not that special, really.

I'll try, though.

What are you talking about? Everyone is a special, special-special, special, spe~cial, speeeeeeecial, spe♥cial snowflake!

[citadelspirit]

Score? A musical score, or a competitive score?

I doubt shaking it will do anything to your world. The masters of this place have no control over it.

[harmoniae]

It was a sort of dictation of our planet's future. Everyone tried to live their lives according to it.

Oh, I didn't mean I thought it would really affect it. Although I suppose... ah, they couldn't do that, could they? It's just... the way it feels. I want to keep it safe.

[citadelspirit]

Your entire planet's future was mapped out? How dull, knowing everything that would happen, ever.

[harmoniae]

Yes... I don't believe that it was good for our world. It's just hard to convince people to stop following something that has made them feel safe for so long.

[Luke practically smushes his face into the communicator to see it. Probably unnecessary, but this is Luke we're talking about.]

I'm pretty sure people can't breathe water.

[WAY TO MISS THE POINT.]

I got one of those weird things, too. Mine looks like the manor, but I can't see anyone in it.

[b-blink--]

Ah-- I didn't really mean it that literally.

I'd like to see yours too, though. They're nice reminders of our world, aren't they?

...Even if it isn't real, it's nice to think I can see a little of what the future will hold for everyone when I'm not there.

Oh.

Yeah, of course! Looking at it makes me wish it had snowed at the manor more often. I don't remember the last time it snowed, but Guy told me about it once.

[He smiles sheepishly, but only briefly, as the subject changes to a sadder one.]

Ion...

I... I don't think you have to count on the City's curses to know what the future will be like.

[imperialwill]

They are quite delightful, do you not agree? I certainly hope we are able to keep these adorable trinkets!

[harmoniae]

I'd like that very much.

[imperialwill]

It has been quite some time since we've been able to see it, has it not? Home- Auldrant.

[harmoniae]

It has. I miss it.
