Action - 006
[...Well, this was a little unexpected. Kazuma finds himself standing at the center of the village plaza later on this evening, pretty much having the same pose as the icon, although in new feather garbs. He looks at his surroundings. There was something vaguely familiar about the village, and this pain behind his back...like a dream he once had long ago. Slowly it comes back to him.
He chuckles quietly upon realizing where he was. This was a joke, right? Oh, but of course Luceti was always good at causing interruptions for everyone wasn't it? He sighs, no point in questioning it. He should just go and find his clothes.
As he walks to the clothing store, he realized how quiet it was. Not that the village was quiet in the least, it's his head. It was almost unsettling how quiet it was in his head right now. Terumi would surely have a say or two right now but...nothing.]
[Kazuma can be found at the clothing store after his return wearing not his old clothes, but the uniform Hazama wore in the NOL. Odd. Yet Kazuma didn't find anything strange about it at all, like this was totally what he has always worn. What he found strange was that he couldn't find his journal. Didn't new feathers usually get them upon arrival?
He'll be checking the various stores, the item and weapon shops afterwards for his things before concluding his journal wasn't here. It couldn't still be at the old House was it? Ugh, he's not sure if he wanted a reunion, but the journal is kind of vital in this place. Maybe he can sneak into House 48 without anyone noticing. So he can be seen walking down the path towards House 48 from the plaza.
Once there, he'll be as quiet as possible getting in and getting out with his things...damn that front door sure makes an awful loud creaking sound and this house--this house stinks like cat. Ugh.]
[OOC: The Malnosso have messed around with Kazuma's head and a few other things, so this is who he believes to be right now. Though he doesn't share the headspace with Terumi in Luceti. This is lasting for a week.]
[Action]
I just need some tea, that's all. [Why is this familiar. This shouldn't be familiar at all, but something is sticking out like a red flag in her memory. And the memories rushing to flagpole like a gathering lightning strike aren't matching up at all.] Is everything alright...?
[Action]
Everything's fine...though I should let you know that Miss Noel is staying for the night in my room. She...had a bit of an accident, but she'll recover. [...] I don't suggest you go see her.
[Action]
...No, it doesn't... There's no blue light, but the painful nagging is only growing stronger. Agitated memories keep flooding forward and they're not helping in the slightest. It's all she can do to keep her expression carefully neutral as several questions bombard her mind from all angles.]
What happened, though? Is she hurt?
[Action]
[...this feeling being around Litchi was unsettling. It didn't hurt him or anything just...agitating] Like I said she'll be fine, but what about you? You still haven't found a way to stop the contamination have you?
[Action]
I haven't, no. Not yet. [And she's starting to doubt it would make much difference at this point even if she did. She may have recovered the last time it was stopped in Luceti, but she was in much better condition then.] But there's still time. I'm sure we'll find something.
[Action]
[She was thinking it, but Kazuma says it. Had he return sooner with the knowledge he had now, then maybe, maybe there might have been a chance...heh, he can imagine Terumi telling him how stupid he was acting right now, for trying to help someone who clearly deserves what she got.]
The technology here is rather dated, but perhaps I can slow the process.
[Action]
And this is when she can practically feel the wall of guard she always keeps up around Hazama sliding into place. It isn't a conscious decision, but that familiar stiff guard is back whether she means it to be or not.]
Slow it how...?
[Action]
By lessening the amount seithr you've been exposed to. Fewer contaminants, slower erosion, right? At least you'd be able to function a little while longer.
[And maybe give him some time to think of something to convert all the bad stuff inside her into something that can be used.]
[Action]
...How long have you known how to do something like this?
[Action]
Not here, no. I figured it all out while I was away, you see.
