20th Memory [Voice/Action?]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Sayo had a scary moment today. She'd opened her journal for review, flipped through the pages, and found herself speaking with someone she didn't recognize-she didn't recognize? She leaned in, scanned their faces, and her heart dropped into her stomach. And soon she found herself flipping to more and more pages, and they were there, and she knew

[The second part, full of Sayo's warm questioning, should be enough to explain the request...but something in that first question demanded worrying. Jilly's can't keep all of the concern from her voice when she replies]

Sayo? Is everything alright?

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Jilly, she is so glad to know your face and name and voice right now. There's relief in familiarity, and she sighs, though it's not quite full of disappointment.]

I'm alright; I just feel bad, not keeping up with everyone who's been around me...

Are you doing well, Jilly-san?

[tehoniongirl]

There's so much to keep track of. None of us can do it all.

I'm... [she hesitates, then soldiers on] I'm alright. It's quiet in the house right now, with Buffy and Len...gone. But I'm alright.

[whats_a_sneeze]

They're... gone?

...

Were they taken?

[wise_maiden]

Sayo? [Her concern immediately is drawn to the first part, of course.] I hope it hasn't been too long since we last talked. Are you all right?

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Not long at all, Raine-san. In fact, she just recently spoke to Sheena... She lowers her chin, frowning.]

I'm alright. But are you alright? I'd heard you and Yuan-san had gotten into a bit of trouble... Sheena-san told me. Are you okay?

[wise_maiden]

[... Oh, that. She frowns a little at the thought.]

Yes, we're fine. That wasn't the best of news, but hopefully things will remain calm for a while. [...] You haven't run into any trouble?

[whats_a_sneeze]

No, I haven't ran into much of anything, lately. Considering how I tend to be, I'd say that's pretty good progress.

[goldenglasses]

[That's an... odd request.] Sayo are you alright?

Re: [Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Oh no.]

I'm... okay...

[oh no, she really had-]

May I ask... who you are?

[There went any hope Jilly and Raine had rekindled.]

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

[Vash the crusher of hopes and dreams.]

[Not that Vash is too discouraged. It has been awhile.] Oh! It's Vash. I helped you wash dishes at Seventh Heaven once when Sanji was kidnapped.

Re: [Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[whats_a_sneeze]

You did?

...I'm sorry, I don't remember you.

[How awful.]

Thank you for helping me, though. I appreciate it. Sanji-san had been kidnapped?

[Voice]

[consultmybooks]

It's both - there's a great deal of food, although not all of it is very edible. And there's also a great deal of games, some of which are...rather fun. There are rides, as well, although I haven't gone on as many of those.

[...Sayo, what's wrong?]

Re: [Voice]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[Giles! She more than happy to see you're still ringing memory bells.]

Well! Unedible food seems like a poor idea on their part!

You say there are 'rides'?

Re: [Voice] -> [Video]

[consultmybooks]

Yes. Rides. Um...[How to explain rides to someone when he doesn't understand them too well himself?] They're, um, they're things that are...well, here, probably best if I show you.

[The video feed clicks on, to show the line leading up to the carousel.]

[whats_a_sneeze]

Ah! Wow, that's so pretty; I'm not sure what it is, but it looks lovely...

[corrinesbell]

[Gotta admit, Sheena will be surprised that Sayo remembered.]

Uh...hey, Sayo. What can I get you?

Re: [action]

[whats_a_sneeze]

Oh, I'm fine! I was actually coming in to see if you wanted any help; my shift at Seventh Heaven just ended.

[action]

[corrinesbell]

You...really wanna do this?

Re: [action]

[whats_a_sneeze]

Of course! I used to do it at home, so it'll be valuable to do, for me!
