Event Eight.

[awashmods]

To thee I'll return, overburdened with care; The heart's dearest solace will smile on me there. No more from the cottage again will I roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.

he Town is quiet this week. No sudden quests on the forum post, no roars of werewolves in the distance... just peaceful, peaceful quiet. Of course, it's hot as hell right now, but that aside, it's pretty pleasant. You probably don't want to wander around the Town right now, but... Naturally, now's when the Town is going to start thoroughly encouraging you to do just that. You do want to find your doorway back home, don't you? Better get searching! And don't mind the other worlds you might end up stumbling into first. Welcome to Awash's eighth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to start your own posts or logs for this event as well. If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

[Shit. Nyx hesitates a moment, wondering if he should say anything, but doesn't know if Rin will avoid him if he tries...

Finally he moves to place a hand on the kid's shoulder, not trying to get him to turn around but an offer of support. It seems he's not the only one with painful emotions attached to these memories.]

I wanted to see if you were busy. Sorry if you'd have rather been alone.

[His voice carries a tone that implies his continued company now that he's already here. Sorry, Rin. You're stuck with him now.]

[The hand on his shoulder is returned by a brief second of tensing, but it doesn't last long and he lets out a shaky breath, shaking his head.]

No, no, it's-- it's fine. I'm fine. Just-- ... lotta memories, y'know?

[Stuck with him, but really it's probably needed. Wallowing in emotions alone is rarely good for anyone.

He glances at the framed photo on the desk.]

That was the first time I ever got to Kyoto, and I practically had to beg them to take me to the tower. Apparently most people in the area don't even like it! Go figure, huh?
