[ open. ]
Who: Kakyoin & OPEN!
When: IC 7/19 - 7/23 (event time)
Where: School, park, marketplace, apartments.
What: Ayyy it's the event bandwagon.
Rating/Warning: Probably some talk of violence, whoops.
A. all that's missing is toast in mouth
[ he feels like he's losing his mind.
he's so sure he's seeing familiar faces -- faces of people that he knows aren't here, faces that he misses dearly -- but the moment he tries to chase them down, they vanish. the first time, he dismisses it as a trick his eyes are playing on him. so the second time, he ignores it. but as it happens a third, a fourth time, it grows harder and harder to pretend nothing's happening.
as he's making his way through the school's hallways, kakyoin's footsteps are steady and clipped. but they stop abruptly when he spots a flicker of movement out of the corner of his eyes -- the trailing length of a long, black coat, or the shape of a built figure in a conspicuous hat -- and this time, he chases after it without thinking.
if someone's playing tricks on him, he's determined to hunt them down, and he sprints full-tilt down the hallway towards where he's so sure he saw that familiar figure, rounding the corner without losing any speed.
so it'll probably be a pretty hard impact if he runs into anyone! ]
B. don't mind the mess
[ so when brute-force sprinting after those hallucinations proves to be fruitless, kakyoin goes for a different tactic.
around the school campus or the park, kakyoin can be found quietly standing in a clearing, staring very intensely at nothing in particular.
maybe it'd be best to ignore the weirdo staring at the trees? or you could talk to him and see what's so interesting about that patch of grass over there?
but people with any sort of supernatural or spiritual ability will be able to see that kakyoin's not just staring at the ground. all around him, strange, green tendrils spread out like a cobweb, covering the ground around him in a fifty, sixty-meter radius. the tendrils shift against the ground, translucent and glowing faintly, and touch lightly at the shoes of anyone who wanders too close to them. linger too long, and they might gently loop around your ankle.
so, yeah. feel free to call him out on that creepy little detail. ]
C. no context theater time
[ he eventually gives up on trying to chase those hallucinations but that still leaves him with the matter of the weird, injured dove that's been following him around. it's a little distressing, being followed by such a battered-looking animal, but he hadn't been able to pick it up or carry it, and helping it out in any way didn't seem possible.
which means he just has to let it totter after him while he tries to go about his daily life.
periodically, he stops and sits down somewhere to let the bird catch up to him. and when he thinks no one's looking, he sometimes makes another attempt to pick it up, even if he knows it probably won't work -- quickly though, so no one can see him trying to pick up a handful of empty air. (he can totally be seen making this embarrassing attempt.)
kakyoin can be found around the school, park, marketplace and apartments, and anyone unfortunate enough to walk near him -- deliberately or not -- will probably end up bumping into the sad, injured spirit-dove hobbling after him. whoops.
C1. please choose this option to get a bizarre memory! it might still be kinda violent and/or horrific, but it'll come with little context and probably be kind of strange. please feel free to request anything specific from his canon, but otherwise these will be chosen randomly!
C2. please choose this option to get a more distressing and/or serious memory! may or may not be violent, may or may not be sad. it's a mystery! please feel free to request anything specific from his canon, but otherwise these will be chosen randomly!

c-2!!
LET'S GO WITH A SERIOUS MEMORY.]
no subject
-- the scenery is peaceful -- a large room in a lush japanese estate, the sliding door wide open to reveal a beautiful garden and a slice of blue sky -- but there's the faint stench of blood on the air. kakyoin sits up, and when he touches a hand to his forehead, his fingertips come away wet with blood.
he looks up to where there's a huge man standing by the sliding doors. he's massive, imposing, and his expression is a stern frown even when he looks over.
why -- kakyoin hesitates. he's still a little disoriented, but he continues. why did you risk your own life to save me?
the man standing by the doorway stares for a moment, then looks away with a noncommittal shrug. who knows? i'm not sure myself.
it's said bluntly, but not unkindly. and as he looks away, kakyoin ducks his head.
his vision blurs, just a little.
-- kakyoin stumbles as his vision spins, staggering forward a half-step from more than just the impact of vietnam bumping into him. and as he presses a hand to his mouth, trying to swallow back a wave of nausea, he can't help looking a little concerned.
he keeps feeling like he's forgetting something very important. ]

What just happened? Did Kakyoin suffer? Why was he saved? The stranger said he wasn't so sure himself.
Could she even talk about and ask him?
But even so, she immediately catches him as he stumbles and looks dreadfully ill.]
Kakyoin, what was that? Are you alright?
no subject
Sorry -- that. It seems to be a recent development. [ wow, nope, words aren't coming easily just yet. a firm shake of the head before he manages to address that question more properly. ] People have been seeing my old memories. Accidentally.
[ a deep exhale before he slowly lets go of vietnam's arm, giving an apologetic duck of the head. ]
I'm fine. Just a little dizzy.
