006 Dark Towers Destroyed; Video;

[oceantrauma]

These candies are far too personal, and not something I think we're meant to experience. It's a dirty trick to play on us. [He looks a little irritated, especially since he doesn't know who to blame for it. But then his expression softens to guilt.] I wish I hadn't.... I should have checked the network first.

And I apologize for what you might see or hear to anyone who eats any that might relate to me.



[ooc: You can assume you ate one of Ken's here, or if those are too upsetting? A generic Digimon one with Ken in the digital world with Wormmon is fine, too - labeled DIGIMON. Sorry I didn't think of it earlier.]

[firstaid]

Why... is that? Did you have have a happy past?

[She's prying and she knows it, but she's far too curious to not say anything.]

video;

[oceantrauma]

[And there is a very upset look to that.]

No. I...did things, bad things. I imagine anyone seeing that sort of thing wouldn't like it very much.

video;

[firstaid]

We've all done... bad things.

[She looks down, remembering the time she hurt her friends.]

But I wouldn't want anyone to see what bad things I've done either.

video;

[oceantrauma]

Yes, but that doesn't make it any easier. I wouldn't want anyone to see those things.... For many reasons. I wouldn't want those memories dredged up when they don't need to be. [Not that he's forgotten, not that he can forgive himself - it's going to take a while for that.]

[firstaid]

[She wants to ask so badly, but she knows when it's not right to pry. This is one of those times.]

Then I hope no one finds your memory. I pray they are safe.

[oceantrauma]

[If she asked in the future, he may tell her. Or she might find out through a curse, one day.]

Thank you. I hope they don't either. I hope more people get warning about this stuff before they eat anymore of those candies.

video;

[firstaid]

As do I. Luckily, I didn't eat mine and threw them away once I found out they were cursed.

[She almost did eat them though. Her intuition told her not to once she read one of the hearts which read 'murder'. It sounded off... so yeah...]

video;

[oceantrauma]

I wish I had done the same. But...it's done, now.

[He wishes he had that kind of intuition, though he had been a little suspicious, and he'll know for next time.]

video;

[firstaid]

I hope that you will be okay. I'm here for you to talk to if you need it.

[She's already been helping Rita, but she wouldn't mind helping others since it can't be easy to see another's dark memory.]

video;

[oceantrauma]

Oh, don't worry. I'm fine. [He smiles, trying to be reassuring. He doesn't like others worrying over him.]

But I do appreciate the offer. If I need someone to talk to after all, I'll keep you in mind.

video;

[firstaid]

Yes, please don't hesitate to contact me. I wouldn't mind it at all.

[Since being there to heal someone, even if by way of having them talk to her, is what she likes to do. It's what makes her feel like she's done something fulfilling.]

video;

[oceantrauma]

.... The same for myself, though. If in the future you might need someone to talk to, or you think I could help with something, don't hesitate to contact me, okay? This goes both ways.

[To be fair, he could use healing for his emotional state, but he's probably not ready to allow someone else in. And he'd rather handle it himself for many reasons.]

video;

[firstaid]

It sounds like a deal, Ken. I promise to uphold my part.

[It’s always nice to have someone to talk to, but first she knows she needs to tell Ken the full story of her background and the Child of the Full Moon. Perhaps another day…]

video;

[oceantrauma]

And I will uphold my part as well.

...is this what it's like? Having friends?

[They are similar in some ways, then. They are making good friends.]

video;

[firstaid]

It's a wonderful thing. Friends... are there to support you and they accept you no matter who you are. They help when it comes to making choices, but sometimes they step in if there's a choice they don't like.

Friends... are amazing.

video;

[oceantrauma]

Yes. Even after you've done something horrible, they still forgive you and accept you.

They really are.

video;

[firstaid]

Sometimes they yell at you, but they always mean well.

video;

[oceantrauma]

[He remembers things like that. Wow, he misses the Chosen Children and Wormmon a lot right then.]

Yes, they do. They have your best interests in mind, and care for you and stand by you through all of the stupid stuff you do.

video;

[firstaid]

That they do. I once tried to travel into a dangerous desert by myself because I didn't want to endanger my friends, but they wouldn't allow me.

[She remembers how she thanked them and gave them payment, but they said it went against their guild laws to let her go on her own.]

video;

[oceantrauma]

I wouldn't let you go alone, either. You would have to take me with you.

video;

[firstaid]

That's what they ended up doing. They went with me.

video;

[oceantrauma]

Then you have good friends....

They sounds like...the people I know back home. [He's trying to keep that in, but it hurts. He misses them.]

video;

[firstaid]

I would like to say that I hope to get to meet them someday, but I'm not entirely sure I would want them to be here in the City, even if it is peaceful at most times.

video;

[oceantrauma]

I feel the same.

I want them to stay home where they're safe. But I miss them.

video;

[firstaid]

Perhaps you will get to go home someday as well, but until then, know what you're friends with us here.
