[After the events of the previous week, the mature thing to do would have been to would have been to take the awkward stares and deliver his humble apologies like a man. Yet after spending a week steeped in the most negative emotions he'd indulged in even the darkest of fantasies, it was easier to keep to himself ( Read more... )

[Stealth is not something Golbez is good at. Wearing a suit of plate armor does not exactly aid in this. So Cecil will probably be able to hear his brother coming by from quite a great distance.

He doesn't say anything at first, just sits down cross-legged next to Cecil and looks him over. After some time, he speaks up, his voice calm and understanding.] Atoning, are we?

[Action] lunarborn July 2 2009, 02:59:59 UTC

[Though he heard Golbez coming to join him, Cecil didn't move to acknowledge him until after he spoke, even then without taking his eyes from the sky.]

I did terrible things. It warrants atonement.

[Action] cladinthedark July 2 2009, 03:37:03 UTC

Even if it wasn't truly your will? [It's mostly a rhetorical question. Golbez knows full well how Cecil would think in a situation like this.]

I should have interfered.

[Action] lunarborn July 2 2009, 03:48:34 UTC

And if it was my will? [It was a quiet admission, one he would never be able to bring to someone other than Golbez. Nobody else would have understood it.] What if, somewhere deep inside me, that's the person I really am?

[Action] cladinthedark July 2 2009, 03:52:21 UTC

If that were true, how would you have overcome Mount Ordeals? How would you have bested Zeromus? No, Cecil, the dark shrouded your heart for a long time, but you don't truly belong in it. I would know.

[Action] lunarborn July 2 2009, 04:10:01 UTC

Perhaps. [He tilted his head to focus on Golbez' face, or at least the face he imagined existed beneath the helm. It wasn't quite relevant to the conversation at hand, but truly Cecil wanted anything but to be having the conversation at hand.] Do you remember our parents?

[Action] cladinthedark July 2 2009, 04:18:15 UTC

I do. In fact, a while back, there was an experiment where "Ghosts" of those we've seen dead appeared before us... Our father was one of the ones who came to me.

[Action] lunarborn July 2 2009, 04:24:27 UTC

Truly? [This piqued his interest.] What was he like?

[Action] cladinthedark July 2 2009, 04:29:52 UTC

Our father was one of the most noble, kind-hearted, and giving men the world has ever seen. He was a teacher, first and foremost, always eager to share his knowledge, and determined to get those around him to learn.

[Cecil sat up at that, too excited to remain laying passively.] He sounds incredible... What of our mother? Was she kind as well?

[Action] cladinthedark July 2 2009, 05:13:00 UTC

Our mother was a soft-hearted woman, all too easily convinced to spend her time helping our neighbors... or allow her son to stay out an hour past his bedtime. [The smile can't be seen, but it can be heard in his voice.] She wanted nothing more than to make those around her happy, even at cost to herself.

[OOC: C-can I steal that icon?]

[Cecil took this all in with an enraptured attentiveness, looking like a child as he discovered this family he'd never known.] It sounds perfect...

[OOC: Certainly! :)]

[Action] cladinthedark July 2 2009, 05:41:19 UTC

Nothing's ever perfect, Cecil. But it was good. Excellent, even. Truly a blessed life.

[OOC: Thank you!]

[Action] lunarborn July 2 2009, 05:44:38 UTC

[Oh. Oh there was the angst! Cecil had lost track of it in his excitement!

His eyes broke from Golbez, grin fading.] Until I ruined it for you.

[Action] cladinthedark July 3 2009, 17:54:01 UTC

[He shakes his head at that.] No, brother. It ended before you were born, when our father was murdered.

[Action] lunarborn July 4 2009, 04:34:58 UTC

[Despite the bonding they'd been doing, it was still bizarre to hear Golbez call him "brother." Cecil supposed it had been going on for quite some time in this place, part of all the other forgotten events he'd supposedly experienced. He shifted faintly, attempting to hide his discomfort. He needed to get over it sooner or later, anyway. His lips pursed.] I'm sorry.. It must have been terrible to experience.
