twenty-first form; lazy afternoons {video/action for goldenrod}

Good afternoon, Johto. {This, for once, appears to be an actual deliberate post from Nanao, which is new.} Or, I should rather say, people in and around the Goldenrod area.

Consider this an offer for afternoon tea, at my house. It has been quite some time since I have had a nice, quiet, normal chat with someone, and I'd appreciate the company.

Please reply to this if you are interested, as I'm not about to give out my address in an open post.

{She goes to turn the 'Gear off, when there's a loud 'Speeaaar!' in the background, and she brings it back up again.}

Oh, and Crow? Your Spearow misses you... dearly.

_{[Oh, he recalls being moved about. It's coming back to him in short bursts, even if it's quite blurry and sort of messy right now.]

[When she adresses him he looks startled for a moment, not realizing the feed was on, before he opens his mouth ... and closes it again. And then points at her (well, the gear) in a highly accusing fashion.]}

You ... you did things, didn't you.

_{[Voice kinda tense. Even if he's not 100% sure what he's referring to.]}

{What is he going on about? Surely she couldn't have...}

I - I don't know, Tulio, I - I don't remember....

{She's getting a horrible feeling in the pit of her stomach.}

Well, what I'm getting here is that I don't like you. And I'm pretty sure I have a good reason.

_{[He makes little breaks after a lot of words in that sentence, to jab them across. Yeah, he can hold grudges. Even if he's only just discovering them.]

[And then he narrows his eyes as he suddenly recalls-!]}

... magic, huh.

I - I'm sorry, Tulio, I don't - what.

{There's a pause in which her face goes absolutely white, and her mouth drops open, and her eyes widen in horror.}

I - I can't here, though, I can't, I don't have - ! Oh King in Heaven, what have I done?!

{She's panicking now, and she sinks to her knees, breaths coming fast and light. This is something that she had never anticipated.}

_{[No wait wait wait that isn't how it's supposed to go. If he gets angry with you you're supposed to be angry back so there can be a shouting match and everyone are happy.]

[You're not supposed to go into a panic mode and instant regret. ...that just throws him off.]

[So have a kind of ... slow blink, before he rolls his eyes, going from angry to pure annoyance. God dammit.]}

Yeah, why don't you explain that to me, huh, Nanao?

{Sorry, Tulio, but Nanao's moods can go from Blank to "AFDJFHGFJHDSGKLSKA" in 0.002 seconds.}

{S-still panicking a bit, and is curled against a wall, 'Gear cradled in her lap.}

I-I know that back home, in Soul Society, I have what you would call magic. B-but I can't use it here, otherwise I - I'd remember, Tulio, and I don't!

...and that scares me.

_{[Yeah, he NOTICED. :| Women are strange. He will never understand them.]

[But don't let him have to comfort you again. Wow, this is the weirdest relationship he's got here. And possibly ever. Which is why he stays away from people normally.]}

Well a ton of people suddenly don't remember anything. So that doesn't exactly make you special.

_{[Please excuse him, he's a Jerk. You'll always have to dig a little to get to that heart of gold.]}

{It could be worse. Somehow.}

{This is odd for her too, okay? And she just shivers, and draws in.}

I - I know that, but there would be... signs that I would recognise if I had somehow been able to use them!

And I haven't seen any of them!

{Dig, dig, dig.}

Maybe because everyone got amnesia! Doesn't mean your floating-puppet-thing didn't happen.

_{[So resentful.]}

{She'll just... clam up like a Cloyster at that.}

{She looks like a kicked puppy. Tulio, what have you got to say for yourself.}

_{[...keywords relevant. Have a sigh and stubborn silence. You're the one at wrong here, not him.]}

{Looking away now - she feels horrible.}

{ARE YOU HAPPY NOW, TULIO. ARE YOU HAPPY.}

_{[YES. VERY. EXCEPT GDI NO NOT REALLY.]

[okay, fine. There's a sort of halfway facepalm and a groan and then he'll just grumble beneath his breath about it.]}

Well at least you can't do it anymore. _{[And then he'll look up to make sure. >:C]} Right?

{SHE CAN HAVE THAT EFFECT ON PEOPLE}

{And then she looks up to the camera and is that a glimmer of tears maybe it is and maybe it isn't - }

I can't, and I won't, Tulio. I promise you.

_{[Woah woah woah - he saw that. ...it sort of shocks him into silence.]}

[- just another moment, and then ... yeah, he's not the kind to say sorry. Like, ever. So change of subject? Works much better.]

That's ... good. SO _{[clears throat, god he's so bad at this]} what was that about tea?

{You get a soft smile at that change of subject, Tulio.}

Of course. If you'd like an afternoon tea, feel free to swing by my house. I have the kettle on.

_{[Whew - crisis averted. Crying Women Part Two was nothing he was looking forward to, so he smiles slightly - part relief, part return of hers, part 'heh' sort of thing - and rubs his neck, disguising a sigh from that relief.]

[...except now he feels obligated to go. Sob. Nothing really ever goes according to his plans anymore, but he supposes it wouldn't be too bad. He supposes.]}

... Right, sure. Where d'you live?

{She stands up, and walks over to the front door.}

If you follow the road south out of Goldenrod, you'll see a path that leads towards the beach. Follow that, and you won't be able to miss it.

_{[He nods, slowly, looking a little awkward- but yeah, okay. He's nestled himself in and it's easier to roll with it.]}

Right. I guess I'll ... see you later.

_{[Which, some time later, knock on the door and god how do I socialize-Tulio.]}

{Tulio, once you dig yourself a hole, it's easier just to keep digging.}

Alright, then.

{And she'll be at the door, smiling pleasantly at him.}

Hello.

_{[No no no. Then you'll get trapped there. You gotta learn when to just drop the shovel and run.]

[Which he sort of wants to do. But now it's too late. Whoops.]}

Hi. Hello.

{....Tulio needs to master that skill stat.}

{Nanao steps back, and waves him into the house.}

Please, come in. Make yourself at home.

{It's just a bungalow, and as such is quite small, but it feels lived in. There's a rug on the floor, and a Riolu asleep on the rug as they walk into the kitchen/living area, and she laughs.}

Don't mind Shinrai, he's just all tuckered out.

_{[Yeah, he'll just follow. But oh- Riolu, huh?]}

Is that the one that you were all broken up about?

_{[He's asking sort of off-handedly (but still with a touch of carefulness), since it's evidently okay.]}

{She'll smile maternally at the Riolu, before moving into the kitchen.}

Yeah, that's him. He's a lot better now, even though he can't walk.

{She's getting things out of cupboards as she says it, which helps to hide the tremor in her hands.}
