{Memento} Unintentional Shut-In

[fluorite_flux]

I am beginning to fear that I spent far too much time in the library this week. I wonder if I have always been such a bookworm or if it is a thirst for understanding without memories that keeps me between the shelves. XD The books here are so odd. Despite the fact that the building does not seem to be infinitely long, tall or wide, there always

How about today right after dinner. Come knock on my door whenever you're free.

*action sutaato!*

[fluorite_flux]

*waits patiently until the evening, then makes his way upstairs to Ginko's room, knocking politely*

[sore_feet_man]

*opens the door* Welcome. *moves aside and gestures for Fay to come in* So, you've been doing some research?

[fluorite_flux]

Good evening! ^__^ *gives him a grin and steps inside*

Yes, quite a bit actually. I am interested in vampire healing abilities in particular at the moment. Are you familiar with that particular branch of lore at all?

[sore_feet_man]

*closes the door* ...Hmm...

The only thing I ran across in my research were mentions of vampires being bullet-proof, that kind of thing. Did you find something else?

[fluorite_flux]

Bullet-proof, hm? XD

It was not so much that I found something out, but that I am still curious about myself, really. This wound, mostly. *puts a hand to his eyepatch*

[sore_feet_man]

...Hn.

This may or may not help your concern, but...I do believe that you will eventually remember how you lost your left eye. Well over a year ago, when I met you before, I spoke to you about it. Not in detail, but you did tell me "I dearly hope that you did not loose your eye the way that I did mine".

I didn't pry further, since we had only just met.

[fluorite_flux]

So I had remembered before ...

Kuro-sama actually told me how it happened. I can see why I may not have wanted to talk about it.

*pauses for a moment, the continues*

It is not so much that I am concerned about this wound, but rather what implications it has for my healing abilities. I still do not entirely know my limits.

*curiously* ... But I did notice. That you too are missing an eye.

[sore_feet_man]

Yes, though I haven't remembered why, yet. *pulls his white bangs aside, revealing his fake green eye, which really looks rather real* Luckily I've got this, to keep up appearances.

... *looks at Fay's eye patch*

*steps closer* Hold still for me for a moment. I want to take a look, if you don't mind. *reaches forward to pull the eye patch away, and brushes his thumb against Fay's cheek in the process*

[fluorite_flux]

Ah, it really is not very remarkable ... *can't help but shy away a little out of reflex*

... well, that's odd. *blinks*

*blinks again*

*shakes his head*

[sore_feet_man]

*blinks*

*can't seem to...move his fingers...off Fay's face* ._W

What... *puts his other hand on Fay's chin, and successfully removes the first hand!* ...Hm. That was strange.

... *tug tug on Fay's chin*

[fluorite_flux]

*smiles sheepishly* Could this be... the island? ^.^;

*tries to help by grabbing Ginko's wrist and pulling a little*

[sore_feet_man]

*it detaches* Ah.

*and now he can't remove his wrist from Fay's hand*

Wait.

[fluorite_flux]

Hmm ... and here I thought so many people were holding hands due to the season. XD *keeps trying to let go, but it's starting to sink in that it's futile*
