[there's a figure that should be familiar to some standing in the middle of town, face to the sky. It's Guy, but he looks rather different...his hair is down, for one thing, and he's wearing a loose white shirt that hasn't been ironed lately, and a pair of pants. That's it. No shoes. Even his usual collar is missing. He's got a somewhat bemused smile on his face, but his eyes are vacant, as if he's not quite all there.]

It looks the same...

[he laughs quietly to himself, and shakes his head. But he doesn't move, just stands there, hands in his pockets, staring at the sky. He doesn't even seem to notice the chill in the air.]

[ooc: I missed you guys. ;;

smart_style and

oneand0 -mun here with another one. He's also ten years older than canon and more than a little crazy. He comes from a post-ending RP where Auldrant went the bad-end route and died like the Score said. Soooo if you're not Asch or Jade, he probably thinks you're a hallucination. Because all his friends are dead. Have fun. :D]

...Guy. I..--I haven't gone anywhere. None of that you describe..ever happened from where I come from..Let's...let's just..get you inside.

[he falls silent, letting her lead him. He's too dazed to protest, really. Being comforted by a figment of his imagination? Well, it isn't the first time.]

Of course not...I don't want to remember you like that. No one can be happy when a pretty girl's crying.

Remember me like what? You're still capable of saying it with such a straight face...

I'll make some tea. Or..attempt to make it.

Remember what it was like to lose him. Especially since his mother didn't last much longer after that...

Suffering what I did. Outliving your whole family. No one should have to feel that.

[he probably won't even notice the quality of the tea at this point.]

....Aunt Susanne? Luke died in your world? First Asch then him...
Guy..you always have us, you know that. Luke and I..and you, of course..we have seven years worth of memories together. I might not be your Natalia but how dear you are to me has not changed.

Try it won't you? I've been practicing.

Asch is...around. I think I walked outside in my sleep...

[he's not much more lucid, but he's calmer, at least. He sits and leans his back against the nearest wall for support.]

We're the only ones left. And Jade. No one knows where he is, though. They rescued a few more people...a doctor from Grand Chokmah. Some replicas.

This place...what's it called again? I can't remember.

Asch is dead Guy..unless he's alright in your time?
You, Asch and Jade...

Zelore. You've been here long?

....Lorelei brought them back. Luke and Asch. After we fought Van. Everything was...everything was fine. Until--

[unfortunately, he's only hearing those of her words that jump out of him.]

Weeks. They brought me here with him. It's all...hazy. I was lost. I didn't want to admit it. [an odd smile forms on his lips, and he glances at her.] I guess I still don't.

But Asch brought me back. I have to let you go...all of you.

..With who? Guy..what happened to me? To Tear, Anise..Jade?

Gone. Dead. Everyone.

[he laughs quietly.]

Jade said I was dangerous. Put me away. Because I tried to kill him. I don't remember--...but I think it's because of the red.

How?! How could all of us just die like that?! I wouldn't..I wouldn't let myself die so easily! Tell me you're joking!

You're not dangerous. You're one of the kindest people I've ever met, you took care of Luke when I couldn't--..you've always tried, Guy. Please, try to accept that I might not be the Natalia you know.

[he looks at her, really looks at her, for the first time. Her hands feel so real. He swallows hard.]

Wh-why would I lie--why would I want to lose all of you--

[he's shaking a little, but he grips her hands tightly in return. She's going to disappear, any minute. He knows that, but he doesn't want her to. He wants to believe.]

How....how could you be here...

Look at you. We're holding hands. As a child I recall wanting you, Luke and I to all hold hands, but you always got so frightened...I'm proud of you, Guy.

The Score only suggests possible futures, Guy. I'm from one of them.

[he's halfway between believing, now, and his desire not to let go is stronger than his old fear. Natalia was always the steady one, telling everyone what to do, keeping things running smoothly. He never really minded her nitpicking, but now she was proud of him? Something like that...he never thought he'd be able to hear her voice again, let alone those words.]

[He feels dizzy, and tries to focus on his own breathing, shut everything out for a moment. He wants to believe. He's too used to being disappointed, to everything falling short of his expectations. Yet his experience has already begun to show that what was thought to be impossible could happen. Other planets, ships that navigated the stars. If he could set foot on another, world, who was to say that somewhere out there, other miracles couldn't happen?]

[he opens his eyes again. Is she...crying?]

I'm sorry--....Natalia. Just promise me...promise you won't disappear.

Why are you apologizing? You're the one who's suffering.

I'm sorry..yes, I'll stay here. I have things to tend to, Kimlasca is waiting for me, where I come from. For now, I'm going to be right here.
