Train Meeting

Who: You
When: Day 23 morning
Where: The Lounge

[So you've all been invited via Chain to an "Informal Train-wide Meeting". Rean has a few things to say and then the rest of the post can be discussing things among each other really.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I must admit that I am rather the introverted sort to begin with- and I had something of a falling out with a team member over a stressful incident that occurred about a week past- but then she disappeared to, and- I would like to do something. It is unbearable seeing everybody vanish one by one, and I don't want everybody to disappear, and there are still things that I must do myself. I just fear that I am not exactly, er, well suited to this mission. I am reluctant to "bond" so easily.

Hm. It's not like anyone can really force bonding with others. And it comes with the risk of getting hurt, so it can be pretty scary if you're the sensitive sort.

Even still, I think if you're open to it, genuinely trying, people are going to respond to that positively, no matter how awkward the attempts.

[She's so bad at this and has so many trust issues and being attached to people is scary but she doesn't want to die.]

I have already been making some effort. So I shall continue to do so.

Ah, you're a very upbeat person, aren't you?

Haha, I try. And you're trying and that's a lot. So take it at your own pace okay? We're in this together.

What's your name?

[Oh no what the fuck

she's weak against this kind of stuff, and blushing really hard.]

Oh, u-um, okay.

I'm Hlasoh.

[He's a little oblivious.]

Nice to meet you Hlasoh.

[Offering his hand!]

I already said but, I'm Rean Schwarzer. Is there anything you can think of that would help you feel more comfortable?

[All these friendship feelings are unfair!

She shakes his hand, though.]

Hmm, I do not know. Tell me something of yourself, perhaps?

Sure. Though I don't remember too much. I'm a Divine Knight, so officially I'm not exactly alive. Though obviously I'm not what you'd call dead either.

A Divine Knight? Like, some sort of spirit?

Exactly. In my world I'm usually asleep, but there are times in history someone will awaken me for my powers.

Right now, I don't remember much more than that, but as I regain my strength I should remember more of my past.

Hm, I do recall basic things. Like I'm pretty sure I like fishing and playing card games. How about you?

That is interesting. Then you are not quite like the other amnesiacs here, if you remember what you are. That is truly quite fascinating. Do you serve a particular God?

I enjoy playing the flute, reading novels, and going to the theater.

A particular god...? There's really only the sky Goddess Aidios in Zemuria, but I don't serve her directly.

Those are some good interests. I'd be interested to hear you play the flute some time, if you're willing.

Why would there only be one? That doesn't make much sense to me.

Y-You're not the first person that has said that. I'm something of an amateur, in truth. It is only a hobby.

It's hard to imagine more gods, for me.

Hm, as for music... I think what matters more is the feelings you're playing with. As long as you're enjoying playing, I know I'll enjoy listening.

[That should be a really trite line but he says it with utter sincerity.]

Isn't she..... busy?

[GOD YOU'RE SO

YOU'RE SO...]

M-Maybe sometime, then...

Probably?

I'd like that a lot, though. I'm looking forward to it.

[She tilts her head a moment, curious.]

...Ah! You were in one of Crow's memories!

Was I? I guess that makes sense. Apparently we went to school together.

Divine Knights go to school?

Haha... I used to be human a very long time ago. I don't actually remember it yet, but I'm excited to recall my friends from then.

Though it's somewhat bittersweet.

How so?

If they were around when I was human, they'd be long dead in my current time.

Ah. That must be, ah, lonely.

It is and it isn't. If I think about it too much it's sad but I don't want the thought of being sad in the future to make it impossible for me to enjoy having them right now.

That is a good attitude to have. Nothing is permanent, after all.
