I found one of those memory crystals when I woke up this morning. I couldn't see anything but... I could hear, and smell, and feel things. I think one of the people from my dream was there. Bartz. It was a party, I think, and we talked about my grandpa....

[inkblot]

He's gone. But not really, I think. He was there, wanting me to do something--I don't ( Read more... )

gosh darn it grandpa

... Where are you?

feathered_earth April 30 2009, 20:32:24 UTC

I'm in the park.

yoraetatsu April 30 2009, 21:51:34 UTC

Do you want some company?

feathered_earth April 30 2009, 22:13:26 UTC

Yeah. That'd be nice. :)

Quicklog~ yoraetatsu April 30 2009, 22:21:40 UTC

I'll be there soon.

[It doesn't take him long to get to the park, since he had been wandering around on the second level anyway. He makes his way over to the island and looks for Cara.]

[When she sees Tatsu she climbs down from the tree she was sitting in and heads over with a faint smile, hands in her pockets.]

Heya, Tatsu.

Quicklog yoraetatsu April 30 2009, 22:31:12 UTC

[He smiles back at her, and walks forward to meet her.]

Hey. How are you doing?

Quicklog feathered_earth April 30 2009, 22:41:56 UTC

I'm all right. It was just... kind of a shock. I figured I had a grandpa but he wasn't one of the people with me in my dream, so I didn't know what had happened to him...

[sighs] Now I do. But then again, he wasn't really... gone, exactly.

Quicklog yoraetatsu April 30 2009, 22:51:01 UTC

[He puts a hand on her shoulder.]

Do you want to talk about it? About your memory?

Quicklog feathered_earth April 30 2009, 23:09:14 UTC

Sure... [thinks about it. It wasn't all a sad memory.] I couldn't see anything, but I could hear, touch, and smell. My friend Bartz and I, we were at some kind of party... but I couldn't enjoy it. I had a funny feeling like... like Grandpa was pushing at me, wanting me to do something.

Bartz asked me what was up, and what I said made it kind of clear that Grandpa was gone. I think that's what was in my dream, too... I was shouting at him to come back. But he's not--entirely gone.

Quicklog yoraetatsu April 30 2009, 23:16:48 UTC

Not entirely gone... how?

[He squeezes her shoulder gently.]

Quicklog feathered_earth April 30 2009, 23:41:59 UTC

Well... he was there. [Smiles a little.] In a way. In spirit, I guess.

I bet it's his fault that all my socks got switched around. That'd be just like him. [Blinks hard, not going to cry in front of someone else. And that memory had good in it too.] But I remembered horsing around my friend Bartz too. So it wasn't... all sad.

Quicklog yoraetatsu April 30 2009, 23:43:57 UTC

Good.

[Cara gets hugs! Because she looks like she needs them right now.]

Quicklog feathered_earth April 30 2009, 23:50:21 UTC

[Hugs him back. Yeah, the hug is good... helps her to remember that she's in no way alone, even though Grandpa and Bartz aren't here.] Thanks, Tatsu. [quietly]

Quicklog yoraetatsu April 30 2009, 23:56:49 UTC

You're welcome.

Um... [He pulls away a little and looks suddenly sheepish.] You know this... ball thing... that's coming up...

Quicklog feathered_earth May 1 2009, 00:01:04 UTC

[She blinks--yeah, she saw Bubbles announcing it in her journal and Companion's offer of dance lessons.]

Yeah, I saw--what about it?
