14. Faded [Voice Post]

[ooc: This is after Kotarou's log, which I swear will be finished eventually.]

So...I-I don't even remember getting here. It's all just blank, after coming back to the village. ...Hope Kotarou's okay. I just c-can't remember... *background coughing noises*

Heh. Guess it'll be a while before I can take you up on that offer of tea. 

I haven't seen you in a while. Is everything okay?

...That reminds me. Zelos and Seles. I haven't seen them in...maybe weeks. I hope...nothing happened to them. You can't die here, but being held for so long by the Malnosso would be so much worse...

I do not mean to be the barer of bad news, Miss, but just because true death cannot come to us here does not mean that the Malnosso cannot bring it.

After all, we do not even know how they are capable of returning those who've fallen. Our own hypotheses are nothing but mere conjecture, in the face of things.

[corrinesbell]

I know what they can do.

[smilinglies.livejournal.com]

Of course.

Sheena? Are you alright? [worry worry D:]

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

H-hey, Sheena ... are you..? What happened?

Sweet runes, did you get kidnapped again?

[corrinesbell]

O-Of course, Colette! I'm fine.

[ooc: Such lies, Sheena~]

[corrinesbell]

...That's a really long story. But no...to my knowledge I haven't been kidnapped again.

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

Forgot to mention she's been replying out loud

[corrinesbell]

...I-I think I'm okay, really--
*soft sounds of coughing again that she's obviously trying to cover up*

Just...work on making that festival of yours into something awesome, okay?

[paraball.livejournal.com]

Really?

[pause]



Is it alright if I come over? I haven't seen you in a while. [small smile]

[corrinesbell]

I'm kinda starting to worry.

*moderately long pause*

I'm...kinda also not at my house.

[paraball.livejournal.com]

[worried look]

...You're not? Where are you? I'll come find you if you're lost!

[corrinesbell]

We have a large chance of not finding them...or getting kidnapped ourselves.

And, uh...no, I'm not lost. I know where I am.

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

...Sheena.

[switches to voice, hoping it's easier for her?]

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

Sheena... *long sigh*

Please be careful. And take care of yourself; if there's anything I can do, let me know.

[corrinesbell]

Thanks. ...I'll come. Really. If I can, I'll even help out a little bit.

uh-oh

[corrinesbell]

...Lloyd?

that's an understatement

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

What happened.

[paraball.livejournal.com]

[D:]

Sheena ... what happened to you?

now she's in trouble

[corrinesbell]

Heh. You're gonna have to be more specific.

[corrinesbell]

...I lost a fight. And then I got sick trying to help someone, and sicker trying to help someone else. ...Pretty stupid of me, huh?

[ooc: She's trying to joke but it's really not working.]

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

oh yeah

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

I was plenty specific.

don't kill her she was trying to help people!

[corrinesbell]

...I went to get Itsuki, because the Malnosso left him out there, and I guess I got sick...and then Kotarou didn't come back, and I couldn't sleep anyway, so I went and got him...

...And the next thing I remember is waking up here.

[paraball.livejournal.com]

Sheena ... ... where are you?
