First Kira, and now Suu. I feel so...lonely. Like I did before. It seems so quiet on the ship. I can't cry. I can't let myself become swallowed up by my sadness.

Would someone like to take a walk with me? I'm feeling a...bit blue, and I think that would lift my spirits a bit.

Be careful to offer so openly. There are bad people out there.

[sereneous]

I believe I am capable of taking care of myself. But thank you for your concern, sir.

1/2

[apostleofhope]

'Sir'?

[apostleofhope]

[yeah this is some pretty amused laughter]

I'm only fifteen! ...I think.

[sereneous]

You think?

I'm nineteen. My name is Lacus Clyne.

May I have your name then?

[apostleofhope]

I'm not really sure, actually! But I thought I was fifteen.

Joshua Christopher.

[sereneous]

Well, I suppose it isn't too important. I'm sure you'll be able to find out, though.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Joshua. How long have you been in the city?

[apostleofhope]

Oh... That's just the thing. I don't really know. Everyone says I was here before, and it kind of felt familiar. But everyone knew my name and I didn't know theirs. But I asked around, and I guess I could be seventeen! Or maybe sixteen.

But then again, I seem to be dead, so maybe I'm zero!

[sereneous]

I was in the city before, but I remember most of what I did here. I suppose it was simply luck.

Thinking that you're "zero" is an interesting way of looking at things.

[apostleofhope]

Yeah. I guess! I can just see if I can trade for my memories back if I ever want to, but I don't see much point.

Mmm hmm! Or maybe I'm a negative number.

[sereneous]

Oh, I don't think people can be negative numbers. Maybe zero, like when a child is first born -- or even conceived -- but negative?

Joshua, would you like to take a walk?

[apostleofhope]

Anything is possible, isn't it? People aren't supposed to be alive while dead, either...unless they're zombies. But I'm not a zombie.

...Where? I don't like crowds. Too much 'noise'.

[sereneous]

You do have a point.

How about Xanadu? There are many peaceful places there.

[apostleofhope]

...Anywhere but the sunflowers.

[sereneous]

Alright. I prefer roses myself.

I'll meet you there.

[ooc; Is assuming alright? I have an appointment soon. >_> ]

[apostleofhope]

Okay. We can see the roses.

[ OOC: Hellz yeah, I gotta take a nap soon, lest I die. Feel free to say he talked about really weird things at points and was eerily silent at others. ]
