[ They give a hum, not quite being able to relate but listening nonetheless. ]

So they are like a teacher to you. I can see why you would be glad to see them. [ There's people like that that Cairn would also like to see again, but the way things are currently, they don't forsee that happening anytime soon. ] But why did you not think you would see them again?

[theshowsover]

[Akira nods.] I'm curious too.

[He understands why Ignis would consider this person important to him; teachers can be very close to their students, after all. If they hadn't seen each other in a while, in fact thought they would never see each other again, it must have been incredible to see each other again.]

[unfatalist]

[Why indeed. What's a tactful way to answer the question without actually answering the question? Good thing he's pretty good at this, insofar as being able to give an answer that isn't a lie while not actually being the whole truth either.]

A war had separated us. Being stationed in two separate and distant places...well. One tends not to assume how things might look on the other side of things.

[He pauses, clearing his throat, then tilts a glance in Akira's direction.]

And you said you'd experienced something similar, yourself?

[theshowsover]

Yeah.

[Oh boy, how to talk about this without going into specifics? It'd be easier if Akechi already knew he was dead, but...]

I guess it was something similar. He went somewhere far away, where I couldn't follow.

[At least, not yet - Akira can't die yet, he has things to do.]

But then he showed up here, and didn't remember. It was a shock.

[unghost]

Are you sure they really don't remember?

[ Their head tilts, not trying to be accusatory, but rather just curious. ]

I only ask because I know someone who did something similar to what both of you describe. Going off somewhere dangerous and coming back, saying that they don't remember anything... [ It's annoying just thinking about it. ] It's just a bit suspicious. And convenient.
