13 [Action/Accidental Video]

Nov 11, 2011 19:38

[In the village today, there are a pair of boys strolling through. Well, more like one is, while the other struggles to keep up, holding a journal. Once they reach the fountain, however, the leader, deciding that this is a good place to stop for now, turns to face the other.]

Hey, Hubert. Did you figure out anything about that book yet?
Ah... no. ( Read more... )

[action] I WAS HOPING FOR THIS SO HARD lightningcute November 12 2011, 01:10:38 UTC

[Pao-lin was busy showering or otherwise refreshing herself after a day of training at the Battle Dome (that thing hasn't gotten old for her yet!), so she missed the videopost.

On her way to dinner at Seventh Heaven, though, she easily catches sight of Hubert's distinctive blue head of hair at the fountain. But...he's definitely a lot shorter than she remembered. And younger looking. She's not familiar with the other kid, but she's assuming that it must be Asbel.

Pao-lin approaches the two boys, a bit unsure of how to handle this situation.]

H-Hubert...?

[action] seekskrosophie November 12 2011, 01:18:19 UTC

[Someone that knows Hubert? That's weird... He didn't think Hubert had any friends out in... wherever this place was. It didn't look like the kingdom, or Lhant, for sure.]

Eh? Hubert, is she a friend of yours?

[action] outbranch November 12 2011, 01:40:35 UTC

This is my first time seeing her . . .

[STRANGER DANGER The look of confusion on Hubert speaks for itself. But this girl knows his name, and it'd be rude to simply brush her off. Hands clenched next to one another, he tries:] Um, did we meet somewhere before?

[action] lightningcute November 12 2011, 02:03:29 UTC

[Ohhh. Awkward. Not only did the Malnosso somehow turn Hubert into a kid, but apparently they also wiped any memories of his time in Luceti. But kidnapping effects wore off eventually, right? They did for Link and Amiti, and they'd had some weird age changes happen to them too. But at least Link and Amiti got to keep their memories of Luceti.

Hmm. How to handle this.

Pao-lin smiles gently down at Hubert.]

We have! But I think I know why you don't remember me.

[Honesty is the best policy, right?]

[action] seekskrosophie November 12 2011, 02:25:07 UTC

[Now this Asbel wants to know. It's not like Hubert to forget something.]

[action] outbranch November 12 2011, 02:31:03 UTC

[Hubert's typically the one to know things, so this catches him by even more surprise. A little uncomfortable at having apparently forgotten her (and feeling bad over it), he brings his head in between his shoulders.]

You do . . . ?

[action] lightningcute November 12 2011, 02:37:11 UTC

[She nods.]

A group called the Malnosso made you and Asbel forget everything about this place.

[action] seekskrosophie November 12 2011, 04:45:22 UTC

What? [Asbel is not sure he believes you. Not at all.]

[action] outbranch November 12 2011, 04:51:04 UTC

[Hubert is even more puzzled by this. And rather scared.] The . . . Malnosso?

[action] lightningcute November 12 2011, 05:00:05 UTC

Mmm-hmm. [She gestures.] This place is called Luceti, where everyone that was taken by the Malnosso stay. But sometimes the Malnosso will take people from here to, um...to talk to them, and then those people return here with some sort of weird effect, like forgetting things. [She smiles.] When I met you here before, you were older. [And not quite as...adorable.]

[action] seekskrosophie November 12 2011, 05:07:18 UTC

[Okay, you're going to have to give him a moment to process this, because that's a pretty ridiculous story.]

[action] outbranch November 12 2011, 05:15:35 UTC

[That sounds like something out of a manga. While he can't deny that that's pretty awesome, being in such a situation is scary. And unbelievable. And the talk of knowing her as an older self? That just reminds Hubert of what his future is supposed to be like, and it upsets him.

His head drops even farther down between his shoulders, and he cowers behind Asbel.]

But . . . someone can't just turn younger . . .

[action] lightningcute November 12 2011, 05:21:59 UTC

[Pao-lin can't help it -- she giggles at Hubert's distress. She means it with lurve, honest!]

I know, it sounds really weird, right? But I know two people it happened to.

[action] seekskrosophie November 13 2011, 01:33:48 UTC

[That just prompts a nod from Asbel.]

Sounds reasonable to me.

[action] outbranch November 13 2011, 05:10:22 UTC

[That doesn't sound reasonable, Asbel. That's impossible!

He grimaces inwardly at the giggle. Ahh, even this girl they just met thinks him cowardly, doesn't she? But back on topic . . . ]

How?

[action] lightningcute November 13 2011, 05:16:06 UTC

[Is Hubert asking how the Malnosso change people, or how Asbel thinks it's a reasonable explanation?]

No one really knows how the Malnosso do it. [A sigh.] They do a lot of things no one understands.
