6th Memory [Video][Future-dated to the morning of the 22nd]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[When Sayo finally sits up from her place in the forest, she isn't sure what's happened. She'd been unconscious-'asleep'-and now upon rising she finds her mind is sluggish and trying to catch up with her situation. Brief flashes of a robotic form... being dragged away... and then, it seems, blackness. Little still-frames of cells and strange men in

[ voice INTO ACTION 8| ]

Sayo-san... [oh, he's been listening for that voice. Even during the draft-- and he starts heading out the door before hearing a reply]

Are you alright?

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[She chuckles, wobbling along because she is the little engine that could incarnate.]

Goodness, Ginko-san, staring at the walls while someone else does something for me is no fun at all! I enjoy moving around, you know.

[Seriously, what if you picked the wrong brand! That would be no good.]

Re: [ action ]

[one_green_eye]

[a gruff sigh, although he smirks] As long as that moving around doesn't end in falling over.

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

Don't be such a worrywart! I feel as though I've never left the village!

[huff puff, maybe that's not entirely accurate

She pulls the coat closer around her.]

Have you been well? It certainly has been a while!

Re: [ action ]

[one_green_eye]

[Huffing. He doesn't worry. Never at all.

Cautiously, looking at the snowy ground in front of him-] Well enough. [more quietly, in what is a part-truth and at the same time too much of the truth] ... nothing much has changed, here.

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Sayo manages a soft half-laugh at that huff. Don't deny your worrywart side, Ginko. It's one of the qualities she appreciates.]

That's good, then. I'm already far too absentminded to keep the usual routine in my head, much less something new added in.

Re: [ action ]

[one_green_eye]

[That shadow...]

How is your memory, Sayo-san? [slight smile] I'm a little surprised you remember me, after so long. That's a good sign.

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[And she does the most determined little fist pump at that, Ginko.]

Well, I forgot Sanji-san and Ami-chan's names, a-and a few little things here and there, but it's all still crystal clear!

In fact, some of the memories from home seemed even more vivid!

Re: [ action ]

[one_green_eye]

Really? [an eyebrow lifts] -- that's better than I would have expected. [....your determination cheers him up, more than he's even aware of]

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Good, that's what it's for! B|b]

Isn't it? It seems like things are looking up for the better now!

[She points a finger up, still smiling.]

In fact-I even still remember what the heater is.

Re: [ action ]

[one_green_eye]

[a grin] That's good, because it should still be switched on. [...though he lapses into thoughtfulness about this. It's clear the mushi isn't living at the same rate and strength it was, when he visited the second time.]

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[A nod.]

Mm, that's true. I wouldn't want to get myself sick!

[Because. That would be just awful. B|]

Oh, have you already eaten, Ginko-san? You could join me in dinner, if you're needing something to eat!

Re: [ action ]

[one_green_eye]

[he glances at her, pensiveness softening] Alright.

-- if company isn't too taxing. [it may or may not be a chance to keep an eye on how much you're exerting yourself, too]

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Can't you just have a moment with me where you're not interrogating and/or examining my physical state. GEEZ.]

Don't be ridiculous! I love having people over. Besides, I owe you for helping keeping an eye on my home while I was away.

[Yeah, she caught that earlier; shocking, considering what she usually misses while she's stuck in the clouds.]

I don't suppose you have a favorite Japanese dish I would know...?

Re: [ action ]

[one_green_eye]

[.....what, are you saying there people who actually live like that? O_W]

Favorite? [a smirk] Not really. Can't think of many things I've eaten that I didn't like. [and Sanji just loves that 8| ]

Re: [ action ]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[orz]

All right, then I'll just have to choose something especially delicious tonight. I've actually been experimenting a lot with all these different fruits and vegetables that our home didn't have much of any of.

[Don't worry, Ginko, she's careful when she experiments. :|]

Well, it also helps that I'm around so much food in the daytime...
