09 ღ Voice/Action on the Moon

[watchesthesea]

[Kairi was once again using the journal, like she had done this past week since she returned but this time she could actually recall being here before and all the memories that she had forgotten previously.]

I just had a rather....Interesting week to say the least, but I remember everything clearly now. [She pauses for a moment.]

I have to admit that is was quite an experience and one I honestly wouldn't want to repeat any time soon. I mean one minute one is sinking towards the bottom of the ocean and the next... well you all know what happened next. [She goes quiet once more but for longer than a minute.]

Which reminds me, to those that have died before... Did you ever have something go missing before? Only to then get it back later on? Because I honestly don't recall this happening before and I'm just wondering if it has happened before or not. If not then why the sudden change?

[She was about to close the book when she realized she needed to say something else.]

Oh and also, I need to thank those who kept explaining things to me when I had forgotten. I appreciate it.

[Action]

[rikuheyriku]

[He's approaching her after hearing her entry.]

Hey, Kairi...

[He offers her a smile- it's a little strained. After all, he's still recovering from the roller coaster of emotions.]

I'm glad your memory's back. [The smile increases since there's genuine joy at that.]

[Action]

[watchesthesea]

[She turns her head, closing her journal for the meantime and showing him a small smile of her own.]

Ah, Sora. Just the person I was thinking about. [She turns on her heels, there have been things on her mind lately and she had been putting them off, but after what happened this time she knew that now would be a better time as any.]

I need to talk to you.

[Action]

[rikuheyriku]

[He was actually about to say something else to her, but he pauses. His steps slow, before he blinks and gives a slight tilt of his head. Well, this is somewhat unexpected.]

Huh? Me? [Awkward smile as he stops a couple of feet away from her.] What's up?

[Action]

[watchesthesea]

[She looked around for a moment, she was checking to see if anyone else was around or not.]

I just wanted to tell you something that I need to get off my chest and I think if I keep putting it off, then I'd probably never say anything.

[She looks to the side once more.]

Though can we go somewhere more pirvate?

[Action]

[rikuheyriku]

[He blinks slightly, arms moving to fold behind his head.]

Er... okay! Sure, Kairi, where do you wanna go?

[This isn't like her- asking him to go and talk to her in private. He's a little worried that something might be wrong.]

[Voice]

[formerabyssinian]

It's good to know you're back to normal. [He had been worried, but not as much as when she...well...died.] We were all worried.

[Voice]

[watchesthesea]

I'm sorry that I have worried everyone.

[Voice]

[formerabyssinian]

It's alright. I think we were all glad that you're back and alive. Memories could be worked on despite that.

[Voice]

[watchesthesea]

[She nodded to herself as she thought about what he said.]

I'm glad to be back in some ways. I mean I wouldn't want to leave my friends here.

[Voice]

[formerabyssinian]

In some ways? What do you mean?

[voice]

[darknessinside]

[Doesn't even hear most of the entry beyond "I remember everything clearly now". Instead he just lets out a huge breath, tension he didn't even realize was there draining from his shoulders.]

Oh thank god.

[voice]

[watchesthesea]

[She laughed slightly. She could tell he was relieved and that made her happy at least.]

I'm sorry if I made you worry. It just couldn't be helped.

[voice]

[darknessinside]

Don't worry about it, I'm just glad you're okay now. ...You are okay, right? You feel fine and all?

[voice]

[watchesthesea]

I have a permanent reminder to not ever get shot again, and a reminder of what happens when one actually gets killed, but other than that, I'm good. Feel great actually.

Well... as great as one can be here, of course.

[voice]

[darknessinside]

You'd think "try not to get shot" wouldn't be something you'd need a reminder for...

[Makes an attempt at light humor, but all it really does it remind him what happened and he lets out a shuddering breath.]

Man, Kairi...I am so sorry that happened to you. I wish I'd been there, I wish I could've done something. Anything. That would've helped.

[Action]

[by_heart]

[While Lea hasn't died here, it 's definitely a thing that's happened. However, it's not exactly something he's willing to discuss over the journal, so he flags Kairi down the next time he sees her walk past the galley.]

Hey. I saw what you wrote in the journal.

[The "do you want to talk about it?" is unspoken, but implied if you know how to interpret Lea.]

[Action]

[watchesthesea]

[She had been busy wondering around, doing little bits here and there as she soon went over to him. When she got there and he spoke she had an idea as to what he wanted to talk about.]

And I guess you want to say something about it, correct?

[Action]

[by_heart]

[Lea shrugs and walks back to the counter to resume chopping up carrots.]

That's up to you. That's a pretty heavy topic you brought up.

[Action]

[watchesthesea]

[She walked in and stood next to him, watching just how he cut them. Learning anything was interesting in itself.]

About death... yeah. It was, but it's something that I think we need to understand here. I always believed that it was permanent. [She paused slightly for a moment, thinking about things she didn't want to remember.] But here it's different, I guess. [She looks up at him slightly.]

[Action]

[by_heart]

You're looking at the wrong guy for that one. Didn't work the right way when I did it either and that wasn't even here.

[He doesn't make eye contact, just keeps cutting up vegetables and tossing them in a pot.]

Lucky you, though, losing your memories a bit after you got back.

voice;

[feetarestrange]

Don't worry about it. I'm just glad that you've finally remembered us.

Hey, what are you up to right now?

voice;

[watchesthesea]

I'm glad to finally remember. I thought it was going to be a permanent thing, but it apparently wasn't.

Nothing. I mean I do have work to do soon, I suppose but nothing important.

voice;

[feetarestrange]

I'm glad it wasn't, and I'm pretty sure everyone else is, too.

You want to meet up for a bit?

voice;

[watchesthesea]

From people's reactions I am to agree with you on that one.

Yeah. I would like to meet up with you.

voice -> action

[feetarestrange]

I'll meet you over on the deck.

[A few moments later, Nami shows up. She smiles and waves at her.]

Hey Kairi.
