A past and nightmares that seem so unreal

Who: [personal profile] tiarae (Usagi Tsukino) & OPEN
When: Event 30 - so, memory sharing and losses, also elemental effects.
Where: Apartments, then in general out and about
What: Usagi tries to deal with this memory sharing. And memory loss. In the process of being unsure what to make of this fox?
Rating/Warning: Possible death depending on the memory being potentially shared? Possible mentions of suicide in one or two memories depending.




Apartments:

[She doesn't feel any different. Sure, she's been a bit down, a bit conflicted considering recent events, with the sewers and all, but that doesn't mean that Usagi expects to suddenly be seeing things. Because that is her immediate wondering when she spots the fox, three-legged and missing some teeth as it glares, baring said teeth at her before scarpering.

Usagi trips as she hastens to attempt to follow it out of her room, but it seems to be gone once she makes it to the lounge as far as she can tell. Rei was used to spirits and the like. Perhaps Usagi should ask her about this? She herself has never had to deal with such things. How to make sense of it herself, the way Rei has. If this was some sort of strange spirit. Usagi could be jumping to conclusions, but she isn't sure what else might explain the sudden appearance and just as abrupt disappearance of the fox.]


Rei-chan, did you see.....a fox?

Out and About:

[Of course, she doesn't immediately realize. That the fox is somehow real in a sense. That it seems to be attuned to her memories. That others have their own animals of sorts following them, attuned to theirs. The consequences of touching one. So when she does head out, towards work or school, the arcade, or just to wander in general, she has no idea on what she might expect. If her fox touches someone or if someone else's strange companion touches her.

She might seem a little more somber than usual, a bit more....paranoid? Looking behind her every so often for the fox.]

Uh, yeah.

[Eiji feels really dumb right now.]

Sorry, if I'm bothering you or anything. I just don't want it bumping into anyone. It's done it enough today.

[OOC: I'm pretty familiar with the canon, so that's no problem--any memory's good. If you want a memory from Eiji, just going to ask you to do permissions. Tldr, the dork has some pretty awful memories of war and his last game.]

Really? You don't know if they're all foxes, do you? I really don't check mine as much as I probably should.

Anyway, when it touches someone, they see one of your memories. And you can feel really sick when it happens. It's...well, it's not nice, that's for sure.

[OOC: No problem! We can do one of hers.]
powertotearer: (Sympathetic)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-04 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Eiji shakes his head for a moment, trying to clear out the memory. It was strange to see how smitten Usagi had been so quickly, even if she didn't seem to understand it herself.]

Who was that?
powertotearer: (Sympathetic)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-07 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Was that when you first met?

[You'll have to forgive Eiji if he's a little slow in picking up how much you miss him. He's really bad when it comes to understanding love.]
powertotearer: (Oops)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-09 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. And the first thing he saw from you was the grade.

[Well, at least this, he's got some tact about.]

I guess that must have been embarrassing.
powertotearer: (Kindness)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-10 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
It can be. But it helps to learn even a little, if you're ever traveling.
powertotearer: (As young as we are now)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-12 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
[And he recognizes that kind of stubbornness--it reminds him of someone he knows, who always just shuts down the conversation and calls him an idiot when he gets called out on something.

So he has an idea how to open it back up.]

You know, there are other countries with enough Japanese people that you can do pretty well visiting there. There are a lot in Hawaii and Brazil, for example.
powertotearer: (Smile)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-14 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It's part of America, but it's in the middle of the ocean. I haven't been there myself, but it's supposed to be really nice.
powertotearer: (Smile)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-15 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
It's worth trying for, right?
powertotearer: (Wanna live it to the fullest)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-16 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
That's what my grandpa taught me. I think it's really good. And there's a lot to be said for learning things as you go.

[And this is probably not the advice Usagi's friends would want him to give her, you know, about actually trying to learn in school.]
powertotearer: (A promise in vain)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-17 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, whatever not-very-good advice Eiji is about to give is cut off when he realizes that his fox is curling up right at her feet to fall asleep.

The next thing Usagi will see is Eiji a few years younger, standing in front of a school in Africa. He's trying to help out, passing out school supplies, but most of the kids shy away from him, leading the teachers to apologize to him in English.]

Oh, no, it's okay. I understand.

[But later, after school, one of the kindergarten girls comes back over to him. She only speaks Arabic, and Eiji's fumbling with the words.]

Uh, Alfreed, is it? No, I'm getting it wrong, right?

[The girl doesn't understand him much either, so she quietly hands him a smooth white stone. That's enough for Eiji to understand, and he grins back at her as she shyly smiles.]
powertotearer: (Evasive)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-19 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
[And of all the people he remembered, this had to be the one Usagi saw. Eiji shot a glare at the fox for a moment, but it was asleep and no longer cared.]

Um, yeah. I helped out her school a few years ago.
powertotearer: (A promise in vain)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-21 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Eiji just nodded--there were some things he didn't want to have to drop in her lap, and the girl's fate was definitely one of them.]

But you'll see him again. We just have to restore our worlds.

[However they went about doing that, anyway. But he could fake some optimism for her.]
powertotearer: (Kindness)

[personal profile] powertotearer 2016-07-22 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
See? Keep thinking like that, and you'll be able to get through it.
