Event Fifteen.





pricking fingertips on memory,
leaving things unsaid
she drifts amidst the holly
for the love of you, or me.





t seems like just another day in this place. It's chilly, but not miserable, and there's a bit of holiday cheer in the form of a few of those trees people have managed to decorate.

Of course...there's also the shades, but who cares about those?

They wander, drifting too and fro, following their usual, typical lives as if they have no idea that they're not longer alive, no longer in their own proper home. They walk over the frozen lake in Flavo as if it's not even there, open doors that no longer exist, and settle into rooms that are nothing but rubble.

They're living in a past that only they can see, but perhaps you can see a bit more from watching them?

Only... maybe don't spend too much time with them, lest you start seeming too much like a ghost yourself.




Welcome to Awash's fifteenth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to make your own logs and posts for this event!

If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

I know it's true, but you're not gonna get many customers if this is the kind of stuff you talk to them about.

[He's still laughing, wiping his face.]

Right right... I suppose joking isn’t one of my strengths. [ She chuckles. ]

But having this place does make me think... how peaceful life is here. [ Not only to have the time to cook, but the time to enjoy the food while not thinking of what tragedy the next day in a war might bring.

Anywho. ]
Well, I got you to laugh. It’s the least I can do... [ Since he’s the one who used his wish for her. ] And your laugh is... [ A pause. ] It’s really nice to hear, Akira.

It is? Oh... Thanks.

[He looks slightly embarrassed at that, cheeks tinging pink. No one has ever told him that before.]

Your laugh is nice too. [S... smooth? Not really, but he hurriedly picks up and drains the last of his bowl to hide his expression.]

[ Does that count as talking as a strength?

She giggles, sweeping the ingredients she has been prepping into a bin. ]
Thank you.

[ A pause, and she extends her hand for the bowl. ] All done? I’ll take care of that. [ Amazing, he really did finish it. ] ...Wow, where does it all go on you? I’m kind of jealous.

[ Not that she actually has to mind her figure given what she is, but it’s fun to joke about. And when he hands her the empty bowl, she’ll begin cleaning it. ]

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-27 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[He hands her the bowl, grin back in place.]

This body needs a lot of energy, that's all. It's not something worth being jealous of when I have to eat a ton.

[Being a Devilman is certainly not something worth being jealous of, at any rate.]

True, true...

[ Cleaning, cleaning~ ]

You’re still young too. [ Or he looks young. For all she knows he’s one of those forever-youthful immortal types they got around this place. ] How old are you?
lacrimose: (105)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-27 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Technically he is immortal, but he's nowhere near old enough for slowed ageing to even be thing yet.] Sixteen. How about you?

[It's not rude to ask a girl her age if she asks first, right?]
pyrafect: (3)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-30 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Now it’s time for Pyra to do a double take. ] Sixteen....

[ He looks older! And, well, actually he’s pretty mature in personality, in her opinion (network post about porn aside). But he’s just a kid, wow...

Ahem. ]
I’m, ah, well... older than you, let’s put it that way.

[ Smile smile. ] Guess I won’t be serving you any rice wine tonight.
lacrimose: (006)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-30 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Why didn't he lie about his age, or find some way to dodge the question... rip, he's too honest.]

You don't have to treat me like a kid because of my age. Just treat me like you always do.
pyrafect: (0315)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-30 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Is there actually a drinking age here?? ] Well, Akira... I was just thinking that you're rather mature for your age.

And actually, I wanted to talk to you about something.
lacrimose: (017)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-30 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Pretty sure there aren't any laws here at all.]

Yeah? What is it?
pyrafect: (0261)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-30 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I... had a dream the other day. [ She says it as if having a dream is something like a phenomenon to her, something impossible. ] Or maybe a vision? I'm not sure. It was of this place.

[ A slight frown. ] No one was here. It was completely empty.
lacrimose: (009)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-30 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Like we'd all gone? Or like before any of us got here, and the town was still deserted?

[It sounds like a bad dream, but it's hard to be sure, in this town.]
pyrafect: (8)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-30 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She motions to one of the "ghosts" that are walking through the shop as if they do not exist. ]

The vision came after one of these beings appeared to me. I had taken their hand, and that is when I saw the town like that.

It was colorless, and... [ A pause, and her brow furrows. ] ...The changes that we made here were still there. Like, the flowers I had placed outside my door. But everything was colorless, and no one was around.
lacrimose: (006)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-30 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
You think they're trying to tell you something? Like maybe it's something that could happen?

[He scratches his head.] Come to think of it, I was visited by a ghost, too. They showed me you, and Wei Wuxian.
pyrafect: (0221)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-30 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I think that is what the ghosts had been trying to do, but then again... there are no ghosts in my world. [ That she knows of. There are only like. Imprints of a person's spirit? Essence? That are sometimes strong enough to linger in the world. ] I don't exactly know how ghosts work, and it didn't stay around long for me to ask it questions.

[ Okay, now there's a careful pause at the mention of his vision. ] What... did it show of me and Wuxian?

[ Something of the future? Or was it something else... Because there is just one thing that happened between her and Wei Wuxian that she'd rather keep a secret. ]
lacrimose: (001)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-30 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
You were just... meeting up? You looked happy to see him, and he looked nervous about something. [A brief hesitation, then--] I think because he likes you.

[That's the impression Akira got, anyway. Maybe it's just a shot in the dark, but in Akira's brief experience with him at Keigo's place, he didn't seem like the type to be awkward around someone like that easily.]
pyrafect: (0306)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-31 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ There's more relief that whatever he saw was something benign... ] Oh-- that?

[ Hm. ] He's... It's true, he has been more nervous around me, and that's rather strange for him. [ Will she be able to put two and two together? Will she not? ] Oh, but. I don't think it's because he, ah, ...has those sorts of feelings for me.

[ She smiles. ] He is rather fond of this woman called Maya, as I've just learned.
lacrimose: (006)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-31 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[Maya? Akira racks his brains for whether he's met anyone with that name, but nothing springs to mind.]

Really? I didn't know... Sorry for making assumptions. [He rubs the back of his neck, sheepish. He'd just gone with his gut feeling, it's not like he knows anything about their relationship.]
pyrafect: (045)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-31 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
No, it's... okay. [ It IS on her mind that Wei Wuxian is behaving weirdly. But more importantly: ]

It's just strange that you had a vision of us. Do you know of any others who had something similar?
lacrimose: (018)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-31 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you know Keigo? The guy with a baby dragon? He had a dream a dragon came and attacked the town.

[...He doesn't want to say it was probably Keigo's dragon in the dream, even though it almost definitely was.]

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-31 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Um. ] ...Kegio? No, I--

[ Wait. ]
pyrafect: (2)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-31 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
A baby dragon?!
lacrimose: (013)

[personal profile] lacrimose 2018-12-31 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh! He thought maybe Wei Wuxian might have mentioned it to her. He grins.]

Yeah! It's really cute. He found an egg and didn't know what was inside, so I offered to help in case it was dangerous. I saw it hatch.
pyrafect: (097)

[personal profile] pyrafect 2018-12-31 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
That's-- really amazing. [ Wooow. And he calls it cute. ] But is it dangerous? Was it the same dragon he saw in the vision?
